Chapter 795

[ 652 words ]

No one really knew what Xander and Dan had talked about.

Yvonne and Chloe were still trying to figure out what kind of enemies Dan had made, when suddenly— BOOM! Another one of the cottages nearby exploded and collapsed in a cloud of dust.

Yvonne’s lips twitched. “Jeez, you don’t think this is some crazy love triangle revenge thing, do you?”

Chloe glanced at her, confused. Love triangle? Whose wife got stolen…?

Before she could say anything, Yvonne kept going, “Dan, that jerk-he’s always acted like such a saint. What

if he’s been running around stealing other guys’ wives all these years?”

If that was the case… She cringed inwardly. Had she been completely blind back then? To actually fall for someone like that.

Chloe just shrugged. “No idea.”

Honestly, they hadn’t even known Dan was still alive until recently-how could they know what kind of drama he was stirring up in Litamark now?

But looking at the situation now….. one explosion after another, the whole thing reeked of a man pushed over the edge by love and jealousy. Nobody goes to these lengths unless they’re absolutely furious.

Suddenly, another blast shook a different building.

Yvonne jumped. “What the—?!”

Was Dan’s HQ built out of cardboard or something? How did someone sneak in and plant this many bombs? “We need to get out of here. Like, now.”

If they stuck around any longer, they might be next. It was getting way too dangerous.

Being around Dan was starting to feel like a game of tag with the Grim Reaper.

The whole estate was in chaos.

Yvonne and Chloe wasted no time slipping away.

As they hurried out, Yvonne whispered, “You’re sure Susie’s not here, right?”

Chloe nodded. “Relax, I checked everywhere myself.”

Dan’s people thought they had Chloe on lockdown. Little did they know, she’d already searched every inch of the mansion during the dead of night.

With no sign of Susanna, Yvonne didn’t hesitate. She just ran.

Still, where the hell was Susanna? Yvonne’s head was pounding.

Dan’s castle was a mess. No one was paying any attention to Yvonne now.

Meanwhile, all the way out on Yarrow Island, Susanna woke up to find Hull nowhere in sight. Hull-Ronald’s right hand man. Even on this remote island, people came looking for him at all hours. Susanna rubbed her eyes and got up. As she stepped outside, she saw several packages on the table.

Next to them… was a fake baby doll—complete with a diaper!

Those packages? Baby clothes.

Susanna just stared blankly. Was this for real?

Barnaby might talk tough, but when he started a fight, he was like the devil himself. As for Silas he was always so serious, trailing after Hull like a bodyguard. The mental image of those two trying to diapera doll was almost too much to process. FindNovels

Especially when she saw one side of the diaper was completely ripped open.

If this had been a real baby, they’d have broken it in half.

Hull walked in just then and found Susanna holding the mangled doll, looking stunned.

From his angle, she looked so tender, gazing at the doll like it was a real child.

Hull came over and wrapped her up in his arms.

Susanna let out a startled yelp, then

relaxed when she realized it was just Hull. I. She patted her chest, trying to calm her raging heart: FindNovels

“Do you always have to sneak up on people like that?” she grumbled.

She was tiny, and with Hull holding her, she was completely swallowed by his shadow.

“Do you like kids?” he asked.

“I” Susanna started.

Hull cut her off. “Not yet, you can’t.”

“Wait, what?” She sputtered. “Who said anything about having kids? I still feel like a kid myself!”

“Then why not now?” she demanded, suddenly flustered by her question. Had she really just that out loud?

Hull just said quietly, “We have to head to Black Gate.”

“Really?” Susanna spun to face him, eyes wide, searching his face for any sign he was lying.

He nodded. “Yeah.”

“But why now?” she pressed.

Hull just gave her that unreadable look of his…
