“Why the heck?”
Jacob was shocked. “Haven’t the boss and Ms. Nightshade been getting on so well recently?”
“I have no idea.”
Cedric frowned. Ever since they returned from Everglade, after he had seen the boss talk to Ms. Nightshade, their relationship had been incredibly close, almost inseparable.
Boss had been in high spirits, shaking off his previous gloom, making Cedric suspect they might already be together.
But today, in Serenwood, the boss’s wild, manic expression was even more terrifying than the last time in Everglade. He loved Ms. Nightshade to the bone; regardless of how she treated him, he would only torment himself. Now, he was even considering making Ms. Nightshade ‘disappear‘ from this world forever, which showed how dire things were.
“It seems to have something to do with Matthew again, but I feel there’s a misunderstanding between them that hasn’t been cleared up. If Bos’s really takes such extreme actions, I’m afraid there would be no chance for him and Ms. Nightshade. We must stop him!”
“Have something to do with Matthew?”
Hearing this, Jacob smiled, lifting the folder in his hand. “Perfect timing then, this document is a godsend!”
Cedric: “?”
Jacob knocked on the boss’s office door. After a long silence, the two exchanged looks and gently pushed open the door.
The vast office was dark as night, without a trace of light. Using the faint glow from the lightning, Jacob and Cedric saw a man behind the desk, clutching a piece of chain, his smile chilling to the bone, hardly resembling a normal human..
Jacob: “Boss, I have something very important to report to you.”
The man lifted his gaze, his dark and murky eyes were like falling into hell, sending chills down Jacob’s spine. Before he could be told to get out, he quickly added, “It’s about Ms. Nightshade!”
Orion’s grip on the chain paused slightly.

“After the explosion at Realm of Illusions audition, we identified potential motives for Isabella and Ms. Nightshade’s stepsister–Miranda. You asked me to keep investigating, so I had them followed. Nothing new came up, but just the other day, we found this video.”
The large LED screen showed a clip of Matthew and Miranda in a clandestine embrace. Cedric watched, almost dropping his glasses in
shock.
Matthew and Miranda? One was Ms. Nightshade’s fiancé, the man she loved most, and the other a foster daughter of the Nightshade family, who had been under their care for over a decade and treated
like a real sister by Ms. Nightshade. And here they were, betraying Ms. Nightshade right under her nose, an utterly despicable act, lower than low!
Jacob had expected his boss to be pleased upon seeing this video. After all, once the video was exposed, Ms. Nightshade would definitely not stay with Matthew. But instead, he saw a lethal fury and deep self–mockery in the man’s eyes.
Xan loved Matthew so much, yet he was unfaithful. But even so, what could he do?
She wouldn’t choose him anyway.
She didn’t love him, and it had nothing to do with anyone else. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Orion chuckled lowly, his laughter hoarse and ominously dark.

tinged with a hint of madness, Cedric hurried after him. “Boss, where are you going?”
He couldn’t really be going to abduct Ms/Nightshade, could he?
