Chapter 563

Tiffany reacted instantly, dodging the danger with remarkable agility. But oddly, the sound of the knife hitting the wall never came.

She turned around and froze. The knife was suspended in midair, as if stopped by an invisible force. It couldn’t push forward, as though it had struck an unseen barrier.

Tiffany bent down to pick up the knife. Her breath hitched as she recognized it. It was identical to the blade used by the shadowy figure who had helped Morwen escape. The strength and angle of the throw confirmed it was the same person.
