The Saluzzos still at the meeting, they were all startled and shocked as Mlynar revealed himself. How could Cellinina bring in the Nearl family, not anyone but the heir."What is the long-lost Nearl heir doing here?" one of the members said."Cellinina, what are you doing? You keep causing trouble. You know how the Nearl family is to us; you know they think we are the ones that attacked them," Dylan yapped."So, why are you scared when you know you are innocent? I am not here for revenge, not to hijack power, but to protect her," he pointed at Cellinina."Who are you to protect her, what right do you have?" Jasmine hauled. Jasmine was only afraid because he thought that they are dating each other; he loved Cellinina."We are in this kind of Alliance; I once saved Mr. Saluzzo's life, and she promised to get me some herbs. So I have to protect her until she found that for me," he said.One of the members angrily stood up and slammed his hand on the table, "I can't believe all this; I wo
Cellinina supported Mlynar as he was too weak to do it by himself."This is the first time I've seen you beaten. It seems you're not the most powerful being," Cellinina jokingly said."That's because I had exhausted most of my energy, and that guy was pretty strong too," Mlynar said."Yeah, that was Jasmine. He was trained to kill and even embarked on a three-year journey to learn more secret mage power. I heard a rumor that he has two Qi," Cellinina said."That's just a rumor; only monsters have two Qi. Humans can't control it," Mlynar said as they both left the room, heading outside."Yeah, I know. Just joking. Why are you going now?" she asked."Home. I have a place in Lothric," he said."Why don't you stay here? You're too weak to be by yourself.""I must be by myself to regain my energy," he said.Just then, Cellinina felt very thirsty and ordered Lapland to get her water.After they waited in the car for her, Lapland returned with a bottle of water and gave it to her. Then she s
Mlynar and Jasmine laid Cellinina down on her stomach, slightly lifting her clothes. Cellinina, still in a state of delusions, kept uttering nonsense."Mlynar, do you still love your ex-wife? You better not, because you are mine. I want you," she slumbered.Mlynar didn't mind her and focused on his healing. He brought out a set of needles and stuck them on her back."Get me velanir leaf," he requested from Jasmine."Who are you to order me around?" he frowned."You know if she is in this state for another 6 hours, she will be like this forever," Mlynar said.Jasmine groaned and went for the herb. He was very jealous and angry because it was very obvious Cellinina was in love with Mlynar. She kept mentioning his name even in that state.Jasmine arrived with the leaf, and Mlynar told him to go and boil and brew it."What…" Jasmine furiously uttered."Time is running out, you know it took hours to brew that," Mlynar said.Jasmine angrily stood up. "Don't try anything while I'm gone," he
(15 minutes earlier)Mlynar and Jasmine were in the car with the male staff on their way to the riverbank."Stay away from Cellinina," Jasmine said.Mlynar kept mute and didn't answer him."You know being with her will be dangerous. You have let the world know who you are; you have attracted your enemies, and they will keep attacking. Don't put Cellinina in danger by keeping her by your side," he said.Mlynar faced him, smiling. "Literally, it is Cellinina keeping me by her side.""I am telling you to stay away from her. Don't make her hurt, or else I will kill you," Jasmine threatened.Mlynar scoffed, "Rest assured, I don't have any sort of feelings for Cellinina. I just want to get the herbs, and there won't be any sort of interaction between us again.""Better," Jasmine uttered."Why do you even care? Do you love her? You should confess to her before it's too late," Mlynar said.Jasmine frowned at him because Mlynar had just spoken the truth. Jasmine murmured, "When Cellinina was
Mlynar stood dumbfounded for some seconds, debating what to do. He then dialed Lapland's number."Hi Lapland, Cellinina was kidnapped right now at the three-way intersection. Call Jasmine and go there right now. Jasmine can trace where she is by her scent," he said.Lapland was confused, "What?! I'm sure you're there right now, why don't you trace her? You can do that also.""I have to go somewhere," he said."Where? When you witnessed her being kidnapped!" Lapland hauled."I'm sorry," Mlynar uttered and hung up the phone. He immediately stopped a taxi and drove to Cynthia's house.Mrs. Lucas was on her feet, sobbing, and rushed toward Mlynar as she saw him, "Please, please save my daughter.""Calm down and tell me what happened," he inquired.Riley chimed in, "She was kidnapped on our way to Mr. Robert, but they have called and demanded 500 million dollars in cash as ransom."Frodo intervened, his voice shaking, "you know all these kidnappers; they can kill even after you give them w
The Saluzzos on a new meeting after the Bryce Bull family refused to cooperate in the interrogation, claiming baseless accusations."Where is the staff member who witnessed the poisoning? He can testify," Mr. Cane insisted.Cellinina glanced at Jasmine, who nodded, "I'm sorry, he was killed," she revealed.The male staff had been assassinated when Jasmine tried to save Cellinina."How can you be certain it was them who attacked you?" Dylan questioned.Cellinina shot him an angry look, "Must I keep repeating myself? The male staff identified them.""Someone might be impersonating them, trying to spark a war, which would be to our disadvantage," Dylan suggested.Lapland retorted, "We all know the Bryce Bull family is our enemy; they are the only ones capable of this."Dylan scoffed, "They aren't the only ones. What about the Nearl family? She keeps the heir close."Cellinina stood up angrily, "Dylan, be warned. The heir has nothing to do with this. The Nearl family can't go to war now;
At the Quantum Unlimited Partner Nomination Banquet, where every corner is brightened by the beautiful light of the chandeliers, adorned with many flowers and well-set design. All seats were filled with influential and well-standard people, while the partner announcement was about to start.Cellinina's car stopped at the red carpet entrance of the banquet. She stepped out, and people marveled at the beauty of her dress. She wore a red gown split in the middle, revealing her long fair leg.A man, dressed in shiny black suit approached her."Hi, my name is Zheng. I am the son of Quantum Innovation and the only heir. Please take my hand, and let's go in beauty," he said, smiling and offering his hand.At the same time, Mlynar got out of the car, dressed impeccably for the first time since the last war. Every woman dropped their jaw."Can we go in, please?" Cellinina said, sliding her hand into his arm, recreating what she did in the Saluzzo banquet.Zheng fumed in anger, "I would have ma
Mr. Frendy was also shocked at the announcement. He was very sure he had sealed the agreement with President Lee, the president of Quantum Innovation Unlimited."Hope he did not change his mind because of me, because of what I said?" Mlynar asked, worried."That wouldn't be the case. Let me check," Mr. Frendy said and left.Cellinina, disheartened by this, remained calm and composed.Meanwhile, Cynthia was very happy, so she hugged Jett out of happiness. Mlynar saw them and looked away.Cynthia noticed this and quickly released him.Mr. Frendy returned with a frown on his face as he sat down, "he knows, he found out about the present situation going on with the Saluzzo."Cynthia looked confused, "he knows, how? Who told him?" Just as she finished talking, her eyes went straight to Jett, who looked back at her smirking."He was the one behind this," Cellinina muttered.Mr. Frendy wanted to storm at him, but President Lee emerged, greeting all who are present.He reached Cellinina's sid
