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.

At that moment, Richard stepped out of the car. As he did, the knife dropped to the ground with a metallic thud.

Tiffany walked to his side, arching an eyebrow. She didn’t need to ask. She knew this was Richard’s doing. Richard’s expression gave nothing away, but she didn’t press him.

Luckily, the incident had happened so quickly that none of the nearby guards noticed anything unusual. Even the driver hadn’t turned around in time to witness it.

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.
