Natasha was fuming with rage because of the p she got from Marceline. She wanted to get even but Enrique immediately separated the two, stopping Natasha from hurting Marceline.


    "Stop, Natasha!"


    "Why? Can''t you see? She pped me! It would only be fair if I can p her as well!" Natasha was struggling from Enrique''s hold as she wanted to p Marceline and grab her hair.


    When she failed to touch Marceline, Natasha turned to the police officers. "Arrest her! I will sue her for assaulting me and my mother! What are you waiting for? You are both witnesses. You saw how she pped us! Take her now!"


    The two police officers just shrugged their shoulders. They wouldn''t dare touch Marceline, otherwise they would suffer from Kira''s hand.


    Meanwhile, Ronan was about to follow Kira but Evelyn stopped her husband by grabbing his elbow. "No! Don''te with him! He is lying. He will just deceive you."


    Ronan just stared at her with an unreadable expression. He didn''t want to doubt his wife but he needed to know the truth. This was about his father''s condition.


    Ronan removed her hand and said, "This is fine. I will not be deceived by anyone."


    Kira chuckled upon hearing that. What an irony? He was already deceived by his wife.


    Marceline and Kira exchanged meaningful nces with one another. Then they looked at Enrique. Marceline already knew what to do.


    While Natasha and Evelyn were focusing on Ronan and Kira, Marceline grabbed Enrique, pulling him out of the living room.


    Enrique was surprised when Marceline suddenly dragged him. He thought she was mad at him. He just let her pull him while staring at their entangled hands.


    They stopped when they reached the balcony. Enrique gave her a questioning gaze.


    "I will give you the chance to know the whole truth. Are you also thinking that I''m lying? That I am framing your parents?" Marceline asked him directly. She was looking at him expectantly, waiting for his reply.


    Enrique fell silent for a moment. He was assessing his feelings. ''Am I doubting her? Of course not. It''s just that, I''m in denial. I don''t want to believe that my parents could hurt Marceline, her parents, and now… my grandfather? Is this because of inheritance?''


    He clenched his fist as he couldn''t ept that their family would fight just because of power and wealth.


    After contemting for a while, Enrique finally agreed to Marceline. "I know you will not lie about this. Yes, I want to know the truth. I will not waste this chance you want to give me."


    Marceline''s eyes lit up when she heard his response. Kira was right. Enrique was the best choice to ask for help in revealing the truth.


    "You have to do something for me, Enrique."


    "What is it?"


    She picked something inside her pocket and showed Enrique a sample of Ametiz Stone.


    "Your parents owned this kind of stone. Can you take those stones from them? With that, we can know the truth. I''ll show it to you." Marceline said, her face looked very serious. "Do it now." She added.


    Evelyn was wearing her bracelet containing the Ametiz stone. That''s the reason Marceline''s palm got burned after pping Evelyn on her face. But she tried to endure it as long as she could p her.


    On the other hand, Ronan was now wearing his ne with Ametiz Stone. Kira and Marceline were trying to maintain a one-meter distance from Ronan because of the protection he had from the Ametiz Stone.


    Enrique also noticed that her parents had matching jewelry with a purple stone. He didn''t ask her further regarding those stones. Because it was Marceline''s request, he was very willing to cooperate with her.


    He didn''t know how important those stones were for his parents. That''s their protection against vampires, witches, and werewolves.


    Marceline used the same strategy Cedric and Ronan used against her parents. They wanted Enrique to steal and take away those protection stones from his parents.


    Once he seeded, Kira could use his mind-reading ability to see Ronan''s and Evelyn''s memories. Through this, he could see what truly happened in the past.


    "Okay! I will do it… for you," Enrique said while squeezing her hands. He didn''t want Marceline to hate him so he would do this for her.


    Later on, the two of them came back to the living room where Natasha, Evelyn, and the two police officers were waiting for Ronan and Kira to return. The two men went to one of the guest rooms to talk privately.


    Enrique didn''t waste time as he quickly moved to do his mission. He simply approached his mother, trying tofort her but at the same time, he was already thinking of a way to remove her bracelet.


    Marceline sat down on the opposite sofa, smiling inwardly. She saw Natasha ring at her. She just ignored her as she fixed her eyes on the second floor where Kira and Ronan were currently talking.


    Enrique started to massage Evelyn''s hand while talking to her.


    "Mom, just calm down and rx. Everything will be fine."


    "Do you believe our mom? Or did she poison your mind already?" Natasha butted in. She felt like scolding her brother as she knew Enrique would still choose to be by Marceline''s side. He even spent the whole night searching for her!


    "Of course… I want to believe Mom." Enrique said in a low voice. He had a sullen expression on his face as he didn''t know whom he should trust between Marceline and his parents.


    Natasha just rolled her eyes at him. She was not convinced by Enrique''s answer.


    "Are you blind, Enrique? She is trying to break our family! She''s jealous of our family so she wants to destroy it!" Natasha spoke as if Marceline was not there.


    She didn''t care if Marceline was listening. Natasha even wanted to p Marceline to get even at her. But the police officers were there.


    Natasha''s words only fell on deaf ears. Both Marceline and Enrique ignored her as their focus was on Evelyn''s bracelet.


    "Mom, let me remove this first. Your bracelet is getting in the way of my massage," Enrique simply said as an alibi.


    Not aware of the hidden motives of her own son, Evelyn just nodded her head in agreement.


    She really wanted this massage to calm down. She was very anxious right now as she didn''t know what Kira and Ronan were talking about in the guest room.


    When Enrique was done removing Evelyn''s bracelet, Marceline''s eyes gleamed as she stood up, texting Kira. She informed him that the mission was now aplished by Enrique.


    *****


    In the guest room, Kira and Ronan were facing each other. They were having a serious conversation when Kira received Marceline''s message.


    He had just finished telling Ronan the details about the doctor''s diagnosis of Grandpa Rnd''s condition.


    "I refused to believe that. I need proof. Your words are not enough to make me believe that my wife poisoned my father and tried to kill Marceline," Ronan insisted. He was very stubborn and close-minded.


    "Call your son and wife. Ask them toe here. I''ll show you the proof." Kira just tried to buy time a while ago. Now that he got the go signal from Marceline, he asked for Evelyn''s presence.


    Ronan frowned but he still followed Kira''s words. It did not take long when they heard the footstepsing in. Marceline, Enrique, and Evelyn entered the room.


    Enrique nced at Marceline. She just gave him a nod. That was the time he approached his father. Without further ado, Enrique yanked his father''s ne, taking it away from him.


    Before Ronan could react, a strong hand suddenly grabbed him by the neck. Then Marceline wrapped her arms around Evelyn, locking her in ce as she pushed her closer to Kira.


    Enrique didn''t expect that Marceline and Kira would suddenly be violent. He was about to help his parents when Marceline''s voice was heard.


    "Stay put, Enrique. We are not going to hurt them. If you really want to know the truth then just stay still and do nothing!"


    With Marceline''s words, Enrique calmed down and trusted her. He didn''t make a move. He just stood there watching the four of them in confusion.


    ''What are they trying to do here?'' Enrique pondered to himself.


    Kira''s right hand was grabbing Ronan by the neck while his left hand was ced over Evelyn''s forehead.


    "What the hell is this?" Evelyn tried to struggle but Marceline''s grip on her body was so tight. She couldn''t escape.


    Kira began reading Evelyn''s memories while showing them to Ronan. Ronan, who was trying to remove and struggle against Kira''s grip, suddenly stopped moving when he finally saw the scenesing from Evelyn''s memories.


    ''Damn! What is this? Why am I seeing this?'' Ronan was utterly astounded when he saw Evelyn''s memory wherein she was talking to the head guard. Kira started reading hertest memories and transmitting them to Ronan.


    He couldn''t believe it. Evelyn truly ordered Marceline''s assassination. Her conversation with the head guard, including their n of making it look like a suicide, was now being watched by Ronan.


    ''I… I didn''t wish to kill Marceline… I just want her to be exiled and disappear, going to a ce far away from the Zhou Family.''


    ''My wife… she ordered it! She wanted her dead. No!'' Ronan''s heart clenched at this discovery. He was surprised beyond belief that his kind-hearted wife could do this dirty work.


    But little did he know, he ought to find out more about Evelyn''s actions. This was just the start of revealing the whole truth.
