“What did you do?” Tanya asked as she stood before William, both of whom were currently on Tanya's porch.“I didn't do anything,” William replied calmly. “Someone is targeting Victoria and Katie. Do you know anyone that would gain something from their disappearance?”Tanya hesitated before ultimately replying. “Daniel.”“Who is that?”“The first son and Victoria as well as Katie's elder brother.”“Why would he be the one to gain?”“He was meant to be the heir of the Smith Consortium but the patriarch of the Smith family, Victoria's grandfather, instead chose Victoria as heiress, leaving him and a few others in the family disgruntled. Most in the family support Daniel but the patriarch doesn't.”“So if something happened to Victoria and Katie…”“He would most likely be the one to take over.”“... Madness.” William breathed out.To think that a person would choose money and power over their family.No… he had experienced such a thing with Celia.There was no reason it couldn't happen wi

William hadn't forgotten that Victoria had enemies in her family, most of whom were unhappy that she was the heiress of the Smith family.“Give me the items,” William said with John quickly laying everything out. William didn't waste any time in getting to work, utilizing the various ingredients along with Victoria's hair to create a special ink which he then used to draw out a locator talisman.By the time he was done, the talisman began to radiate a subtle link that only William could sense.Closing his eyes, he focused on the link, quickly discovering the location where Victoria was being kept.“I've found her,” William remarked with John replying.“Do you need me to get some men so we can go after her?”William shook his head. “We can't just go there.”“Why?” John asked with a frown.“Because even if we rescued her, it would be difficult to explain how we managed to find her. We need the police if we want to go after her.”“The same ones that are currently after you?” John couldn

Even though the situation with Victoria appeared directly, thankfully, William was prepared as he took out the needles he planned to use for the procedure. “Please bear with me, Miss Smith,” William said before remarking. “Everyone get out!” Harold didn't even need a second reason to make an exit as he swiftly rushed out. Once only William and Victoria were left in the basement, William closed his eyes and helped Victoria take off her clothes before helping her to lie on her front, leaving her smooth and fair back exposed. Taking out the needles he'd prepared, William began the procedure as he knew that with Victoria's current state, every second counted. Almost ten minutes later, William breathed out a long sigh and took out the needles from Victoria's back. At the same time, he could hear what appeared to be sirens in the background. It seemed the police had arrived. Just then, he felt someone grab hold of him, allowing him to realize that Victoria was awake. “You

With the situation as it was, the option to cut open Victoria's wrist so the poisoned blood would leak out came to mind but unfortunately, William couldn't just cut her up as he did with Katie because unlike back then when there was blood readily available, there was none and to start taking tests to figure out the exact blood that Victoria needed would take time, time that they did not have.Even with William's spiritual energy impeding the poison, it would take roughly six minutes for the poison to reach her heart and once that happened, there would be no way to save Victoria from the cold hands of death.Gritting his teeth, William decided to risk it all at that moment as he channeled a bit of his lifeblood into Victoria, ensuring that it rested in her heart; that way, even if the poison struck her heart, she wouldn't immediately die.Then, he tossed aside the knife he had picked up and then picked up a new injection before drawing blood from Victoria.He tossed it to one of the ag

Judging from this, he couldn't allow a goddess like Victoria to remain at the side of a frog like William, so He immediately moved to save the lovely woman from the clutches of the beast. “Mister Hall, what a surprise.” “Indeed it is. I didn't expect to see you here but now that you are here, perhaps, we can walk together?” “A lovely suggestion but one I would have to decline as I already have company.” As she spoke, William reached out to shake Logan only for the latter to regard him with apparent disgust. “Miss Smith, I doubt it is okay for a woman of your standing to be walking around with a classless individual like this. Don't you think so?” Victoria's expression shifted as she remarked. “I don't think who I associate with should concern you, Miss Hall.” Clearing his throat, he addressed Victoria softly. "I hope you aren't offended by my words but you have to understand that there are people in this world that would take advantage of you the moment you let them. As s
