The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)

“From the looks of it, this mountain is their hideout. Who knows how many people are hiding in its caves? It'll be difficult for us to get a good grasp of the situation.”

“That's true,” Ian conceded, his voice tinged with worry.

Meanwhile, Vivian was lost in thought.

She stopped in her tracks all of a sudden.

“Jason, I heard them refer to you as Mr. Jason. Is that because you're the high priest's son? Did they find out your mother's identity?”

“Yes,” Jason answered as he regarded her with suspicion. Her sudden question had caught him off guard.

To his surprise, Vivian followed up her question with another that was even more probing. “Then, are they going to hurt you? Your mother fled as a traitor, didn't she? If they found out that your mother brought back the Jadesons' princess, wouldn't they lose all trust in her?”

Before Jason could stop the torrent of words pouring out of Vivian's mouth, the atmosphere in the forest grew hostile.

The Jadesons' princess!

If any of the people waiting to ambush Vivian had worked under Eddie Limmer, then hatred for the Jadesons would be etched in their bones. They would never pass up on the opportunity to seek revenge, especially when Yariel's precious daughter was right within their reach.

As predicted, a minute later, people began to emerge from all sides.

The twins watched in horror through the transmitter, wishing they could teleport to Vivian's side.

Vivi is being too rash! I can't believe she did something so reckless just because we complimented her!

What now?
