Sir Ares, Goodnight

Grand Asia Hospital.

Jay went to the monitoring room. As soon as he entered, a young man greeted him and gave his report.

"Master Ares, the patient's data entered our system twenty minutes ago. We've done as you ordered and set up an electronic tracker to track the person who submitted her information. But, this woman looks very different from the photo you gave us..."

Jay's eyes were glued intently on the monitor. The young man shifted the mouse and a woman dressed in punk fashion appeared on the screen.

Jay frowned and carefully observed the woman with dreadlocks, lips smeared with lipstick with a cat-eye eyeshadow, trying to suppress the discomfort he was feeling. "Zoom in!" Jay barked.

Rose's face was enlarged on the monitor and the high-definition image offered a clear view of her face.

She still looked the same...

Jay narrowed his eyes.

How did Rose escape from his escape-proof net back then?

He could not fathom how she had managed to stay hidden when the entire world was searching for her, but her final move of faking her death was admittedly very clever. When Jay thought about how he had been outwitted by a commoner like Rose, he felt a massive blow to his self-esteem.

"Grayson, seize her and tie her up." Jay's thin lips sneered maliciously.

"Yes, Master," Grayson replied before leaving the room.

Rose sat on the bench in the hallway, anxiously waiting for the doctor's analysis.

She was completely flummoxed by the doctor's many inexplicable excuses for her mother's admission.
