Chapter 1867


    Harvey smiled but didn’t say anything more. He calmed down and pieced together everything that had


    transpired before they arrived here.


    It was Jodie who directed those so-called doctors, injecting Toph’s neck while he was distracted, then


    letting those people subdue him. After that, he lost consciousness and woke up lying there. He knew


    that Jodie wanted to put him in a life-threatening situation, but he hadn’t expected her to be so insane,


    daring even toy a finger on a Hamerton!


    Toph struggled to move, feeling sore all over.


    “There’s a needle mark on your neck.” Harvey leaned over to check and said, “It’s slightly swollen.


    Based on the swelling, it hasn’t been more than 24 hours. It also means that it hasn’t been 24 hours


    since we arrived.”


    “How do you know?” Toph was surprised.


    “I’ve been jabbed so many times I’ve figured out the patterns!” Harvey leaned against the wall, hands


    behind his head, smiling at him.


    “Jodie… won’t starve us to death here, right?”


    “Are you scared?”


    “Duh!” Toph raised his voice suddenly. “I have parents, a brother, a wife! I don’t want to die young!


    Besides, even if we die, it shouldn’t be without exnation and in the hands of such a despicable


    person!”


    Harvey stared at him, feeling indescribable emotions inside. After a while, he spoke softly. “Don’t worry.


    I won’t let you die.”


    Toph slumped down, scratching his head. However, the moment he crouched down, his belt pricked


    him. He suddenly froze, and something shed through his mind like lightning…


    “Harvey!” He eximed excitedly, “We won’t die here! We won’t!”


    Harvey frowned and hurriedly covered his mouth, signaling urgently.


    “Speak softly! Be careful. The walls have ears. If they hear us, we won’t be able to escape!”


    Toph chuckled, lowering his voice to a mere whisper. “How did you know I was going to talk about


    escaping?”


    He pointed to the metal buckle on his belt, which had a special setting. When he touched a certain part,


    the buckle popped open, revealing a gleaming object that was only the size of a fingernail.


    “This is…”


    “This is my secret weapon!” Toph grinned mysteriously. “Don’t worry. My brother wille to rescue us


    soon!”

    Persephone was curious about everything around her, especially on such a beautiful ind. She was


    so engrossed in ying that she forgot to wonder why her parents hadn’te to pick her up.


    Whitney liked the little princess. The old and the young often spent the whole day ying by the


    seaside.


    Persephone loved listening to Whitney’s stories, which she found a hundred times better than any


    mermaid story she had ever heard.


    In Whitney’s stories, Anya’s name always came up.


    “Why do you always mention her?” Persephone propped up her chin, her big eyes innocent and pure.


    “Is she your daughter?”


    “No.” Whitney smiled and stroked her head. “She was my proudest student.”


    “Did she die?”


    “Yes…”


    “Does she watch us from heaven?”


    Whitney paused, unsure how to respond.
