pill be if it is not poison? Never mind. I’ll deal with this later. Kathleen administered an antipyretic medication to him. Then, she locked all the doors and windows because she was going out to search for Nicolette. A thunderstorm is raging outside so lam sure they haven’t left. They should probably still be on the island. Kathleen went to Samuel’s study. She had noticed a few guns when she was looking for the medication earlier. She took two guns with her and searched the entire castle, ensuring no one else was in there before leaving Kathleen then drove around the island for traces of the unwelcomed guests. The island was not vast. Samuel had instructed his men to fix the highway surrounding the island. Therefore, her journey was not unbearable. These people could not possibly hide in the mountains amidst the pouring rain, since it is too dangerous to do so. She drove the car to the other side of the island. As she expected, Kathleen saw a mini truck The truck was used to transport items from the dock to the castle but was stolen by those people. These people sure are audacious. Do they think that Samuel and I are both sick, so we will not dare to chase after them? Great! Just they wait I’ll show them. They probably think I’m a joke because I’ve been docile for some time. Kathleen rolled down the car window, maneuvering the steering wheel with one hand while holding a gun in her other hand. Then she fired two shots at the truck’s wheels. The other party did not expect Kathleen to leave the castle, nor did they anticipate her to fire the shots. The tires burst instantaneously, and the truck halted. Kathleen got out of her car holding two guns, one in each hand. She aimed at the truck’s window and opened fire directly The driver was shot and knocked out on the steering wheel She walked around the car to the passenger seat “Get out!” she shouted at the man The man had sustained injuries. He opened the car door and revealed his wounded arm However, he was holding a gun in his other hand Bang! Kathleen shot his gun-wielding arm without hesitation That man exclaimed in agony before falling out of the vehicle. She stepped on his wound and demanded, “Where’s Nicolette?” He shrieked, “She’s inside the trunk of the car!” Kathleen strode over and pulled away a cloth at the back of the truck Nicolette was indeed hiding in there. Terror filled her eyes as she gazed at Kathleen. Kathleen snorted and walked back to that man’s side. “Who sent you here?” He kept quiet unwilling to divulge the information She squashed his wound with her feet. “Quit acting tough and spill the beans. Otherwise, I’ll throw you into the water cell as well!” That man’s face turned pale. “I’m from the Blissful Sect The Blissful Sect? The organization my brother’s godfather is in? D*mn it! “That old man!” Kathleen’s fury intensified. They must be tired of living! Kathleen brought them back to the castle. She removed all the equipment and tools on them and placed them inside the water cell. Nicolette uttered with a trembling voice. “I did not plan on escaping “Ha!” Kathleen sneered. They did not render you unconscious. Why

a few notches deeper. “I’ve taken that pill before.” What? “What do you mean?” Kathleen recollected herself. “The first time I woke up, I sensed that similar taste in my mouth. The flavor was sweet with a hint of alcoholic smell,” he replied. She pursed her lips. “Let go of me first.” “Don’t worry. I will not harm you.” Samuel paused briefly before continuing. “Your journey out of the castle alone made me doubt your self-protecting awareness. Therefore, you will rest well in the room from now on while I am going to deal with those people.” “What’s there to deal with?” Kathleen was mad. “Hurry up and go back. The matter has nothing to do with you.” Samuel did not move. Instead, he smirked. “It is so easy to take advantage of
