The bodyguards promptly followed Rachel's instructions and positioned themselves at the entrance of the villa compound.
The compound consisted of three spacious villas. The courtyard resembled a small garden enclosed by a low, four-foot-tall wall offering a clear view.
Tessa and Randall were stopped at the entrance. Tessa put on a smile and tried to reason with the guards.
"Hey there, we're Ms. Carter's business partners. Let us in. She's being scammed by a con man who's after her money and looks. If you don't let us in, she might fall victim to his schemes."
The bodyguard remained stoic. "I'm sorry, but Ms. Carter isn't receiving visitors. Please leave."
Glancing through the gate, Tessa saw the drawn curtains and inwardly cursed. How could Matthew make his move in broad daylight?
But what frustrated Tessa even more was Rachel's apparent blindness. How could such an intelligent and beautiful woman be so naïve when it came to relationships?
She now understood that Rachel, despite her intellect and looks, was a hopeless romantic. It seemed like once Rachel became involved with a man, she was completely devoted, even placing him above her family. If Rachel and Matthew had already been intimate, there was no way she would believe anything Tessa said.
Growing more desperate, Tessa shouted, "I'm telling you, that man with Ms. Carter is an ex-convict! If he does anything to her, would you be able to bear the consequences? Let us in!"

Inside the quiet room, Matthew directed Fred to lie down.
He gathered eldernroot, dried ginger, ivoryroot, and sweetroot essence into a pot and simmered them for 15 minutes until three bowls of water condensed into half a bowl of potent medicine. The herbal aroma filled the room, offering a rejuvenating essence with every inhalation.
Matthew then had Fred take the medicine.
