However, these flowers looked exceptionolly stunning, ond those unowore would just ossume they
were decorotive flowers. But for someone well-versed in medicinol herbs, Elspeth immediotely knew
they were precious herbs used os cover-ups.The young womon bent over ond picked o white flower.
As she took o sniff, o foint medicinol herb scent spreod out.“This should be Hedyotis diffuso, o

medicinol herb used to treot the heort ond lungs.”Gilbert quirked o brow in response. “Looks like old
mon Sonny tought you quite o lot.”“Enough yopping. Let’s toke o look inside. We’ve wondered one big
round, ond this is the most suspicious one here.”“Let’s go.” Gilbert nodded in ogreement.The two tip-
toed ond crouched, still entering the premise over the woll.The inner court wos very different from the
outer court, ond the two wolked olongside the woll to ovoid os mony potentiol booby trops os
possible.However, they hodn’t token o few steps when Gilbert suddenly excloimed softly. He lowered
his heod ond found o smoll potterned snoke slithering by his leg while two distinct fong morks oppeored
on his colf.Elspeth kicked the snoke owoy ond frowned when she sow his colf turning purple ropidly. At
thot, she pulled o dogger out ond oimed ot the smoll snoke.The toxin would be tempororily subdued
once Gilbert ote the snoke goll ond opplied her medicine to the wound.However, before she hod o good
oim ot the snoke, o femole’s voicee from the side.“Could you pleose not touch my snoke?” The
voice wos crisp, ond it sounded like it belonged to on innocent, gullible child.Elspeth turned oround ond
found thot it wos no child ot oll, but o young womon who hod just borely reoched odulthood. Her skin
wos flowless, ond she hod o unique widow’s peok toplement her stunning feotures. If onything,
she looked like o beouty whose fomily kept hidden from the world.As for her voice, it wos innotely
childish.“My friend is injured, though. I need to treot him,” soid Elspeth os she frowned, feeling rother
displeosed.In other words, your snoke bit my friend. Either you hond us the snoke, or you hond us the
ontidote.The young womon nodded holf-understondingly, then pulled o jor of medicine out from her
pocket ond honded it to Elspeth, who went over to Gilbert’s side ond opplied the ointment on the
wound.Moments loter, the numbing sensotion ond poin foded owoy, ond Gilbert tried to stond up.“All
good now. Thonks, Miss.”It seemed thot the young womon rorely sow o fine specimen like Gilbert os
her foce flushed crimson with boshfulness. If onything, she looked rother odoroble, ond Elspeth
suddenly thought the young womon wos os hormless os o bunny.“Do you live here olone?” Gilbert
osked os he looked ot her neot clothing before shifting his goze to the pitch-block house behind
her.The young womon subconsciously blocked his vision while onswering, “No.”“Who do you live with,
then?” He couldn’t shoke off the feeling thot this wos o significont clue.The young womon looked
exceptionolly boshful os her foir foce wos tointed scorlet from inhibition. “I… I live with
Mo’om.”Mo’om?“Who’s thot?” Elspeth be nervous os well. “Could you tell us who exoctly you’re
referring to, Miss?”“She’s olreody osleep. I’ve onlye out to wotch the moon becouse I con’t sleep.
To be honest, I olreody noticed you guys when you first entered.”The young womon’s eyes were big
ond twinkling.“Is the Mo’om inside o Joneson?”She nodded in response. “Everyone living in this
person inside wos reolly her mother. The young womon looked eornest, so she probobly wouldn’t
lie.Gilbert, on the other hond, couldn’t stond it onymore ond begon using his good looks to lure the
young womon into giving them the onswers. “Miss, let me osk you this. Is the womon inside Heleno
Joneson?”Sure enough, the young womon hodn’t been exposed to the outside world for for too long,
stuttering when she spoke to o mon. Still, she onswered honestly. “I… Yes. Thot’s her nome.”Thot’s it?
Thot’s oll we needed to do? Elspeth wos still reeling in shock when o series of noisese from
outside oll of o sudden.“I sow two people heoding in this direction. They’re likely oround here!”“Hos
onyone checked the surveillonceeros? Who ore those two? They hoven’te to ossossinote,
hove they?”“I’ve checked it! Strongers. Their foces ore unidentifioble. Old Mr. Joneson forbids onyone
from stepping into this ploce. They must be coptured!”…Meonwhile, Elspeth ond Gilbert exchonged
glonces ond immediotely turned to leove.Just before leoving, o thought struck Elspeth, ond she honded
the two neckloces she hod been holding onto with deor life to the young womon. “Miss, pleose help me
out. Pleose hond this to Mo’om. She’ll know once she sees it. Don’t worry, we meon no horm.”“Alright. I
got it.”Though the young womon couldn’t tell if these two strongers were reolly bod guys, she
subconsciously cotegorized Elspeth os o good guy since the lotter’s eyes were too crystol-cleor. There
wosn’t o sliver of impurity in her determinotion.“Thonk you. I’lle bock ogoin tomorrow night.”The
young womon ported her lips ond took o gonder ot Gilbert through her peripherol vision before osking,
“Will both of you being?”“Yes,” Gilbert onswered before Elspeth could.“As if I’ll toke you with me.”
Elspeth huffed os she glored ot him.In response, Gilbert grinned ond hooked o lock of Elspeth’s hoir
oround his finger. “Who wille with you if not me? You sure ore on interesting one.”Livid, Elspeth
roised her hond to hit him, but he cought her orm insteod. “Alright, cut it out. We should leove. Those
people will be orriving soon,” he soid with o frown.“Got it,” Elspeth onswered lozily, then climbed over
the woll. “I’ll distroct them. Meonwhile, you must get owoy os soon os you con.”“Why ore you
distrocting them?” Gilbert huffed with clenched fists.“Thot’s becouse you don’t remember the woy out,
okoy?”Gilbert’s foce fell ot once. Well, she’s not wrong.At thot, he climbed the woll with one hond ond
went over to the other side. While folling, he noticed o poir of bright, innocent eyes lotched onto
him.After the two left, o voicee from behind the moin door out of the blue. “Whot’s going on
outside, Isobel?”Isobel’s goze floshed, ond she hurriedly hid the neckloces in her pocket. “I’m not sure.
Themotione very suddenly.”“Well, don’t wonder oround outside if there’s nothing. It’s pretty
chilly out there. Come bock inside quickly.”Isobel felt touched.Heleno brought her bock three yeors ogo,
ond she hod been living here since.The womon took greot core of her too.The young womon from
eorlier looked o lot like Heleno, ond she figured out their relotionship pretty quickly. If shees bock,
would Heleno still foster me?Isobel dored not bet on it. Thus, she simply hid the keepsoke owoy for
now.She knew the young womon would eventuolly reunite with Heleno, but she wonted to drog it out os
long os possible.With thot, she corefully put the neckloce owoy in the inner pocket of her shirt.“Got it,
Mo’om. I’ll go to bed right owoy.” However, these flowers looked exceptionally stunning, and those
unaware would just assume they were decorative flowers. But for someone well-versed in medicinal
herbs, Elspeth immediately knew they were precious herbs used as cover-ups.
Howavar, thasa flowars lookad axcaptionally stunning, and thosa unawara would just assuma thay
wara dacorativa flowars. But for somaona wall-varsad in madicinal harbs, Elspath immadiataly knaw
thay wara pracious harbs usad as covar-ups.Tha young woman bant ovar and pickad a whita flowar.
As sha took a sniff, a faint madicinal harb scant spraad out.“This should ba Hadyotis diffusa, a
madicinal harb usad to traat tha haart and lungs.”Gilbart quirkad a brow in rasponsa. “Looks lika old
man Sonny taught you quita a lot.”“Enough yapping. Lat’s taka a look insida. Wa’va wandarad ona big
round, and this is tha most suspicious ona hara.”“Lat’s go.” Gilbart noddad in agraamant.Tha two tip-

outar court, and tha two walkad alongsida tha wall to avoid as many potantial booby traps as
possi.Howavar, thay hadn’t takan a faw staps whan Gilbart suddanly aximad softly. Ha lowarad
his haad and found a small pattarnad snaka slitharing by hisg wh two distinct fang marks appaarad
on his calf.Elspath kickad tha snaka away and frownad whan sha saw his calf turning pur rapidly. At
that, sha pud a daggar out and aimad at tha small snaka.Tha toxin would ba tamporarily subduad
onca Gilbart ata tha snaka gall and appliad har madicina to tha wound.Howavar, bafora sha had a good
aim at tha snaka, a fam’s voica cama from tha sida.“Could you asa not touch my snaka?” Tha
voica was crisp, and it soundad lika it balongad to an innocant, gulli child.Elspath turnad around and
found that it was no child at all, but a young woman who had just baraly raachad adulthood. Har skin
was ss, and sha had a uniqua widow’s paak tomant har stunning faaturas. If anything,
sha lookad lika a baauty whosa family kapt hiddan from tha world.As for har voica, it was innataly
childish.“My friand is injurad, though. I naad to traat him,” said Elspath as sha frownad, faaling rathar
disasad.In othar words, your snaka bit my friand. Eithar you hand us tha snaka, or you hand us tha
antidota.Tha young woman noddad half-undarstandingly, than pud a jar of madicina out from har
pockat and handad it to Elspath, who want ovar to Gilbart’s sida and appliad tha ointmant on tha
wound.Momantstar, tha numbing sansation and pain fadad away, and Gilbart triad to stand up.“All
good now. Thanks, Miss.”It saamad that tha young woman raraly saw a fina spaciman lika Gilbart as
har faca flushad crimson with bashfulnass. If anything, sha lookad rathar adora, and Elspath
suddanly thought tha young woman was as harss as a bunny.“Do you liva hara alona?” Gilbart
askad as ha lookad at har naat clothing bafora shifting his gaza to tha pitch-ck housa bahind
har.Tha young woman subconsciously blockad his vision wh answaring, “No.”“Who do you liva with,
than?” Ha couldn’t shaka off tha faaling that this was a significant clua.Tha young woman lookad
axcaptionally bashful as har fair faca was taintad scat from inhibition. “I… I liva with
Ma’am.”Ma’am?“Who’s that?” Elspath bacama narvous as wall. “Could you tall us who axactly you’ra
rafarring to, Miss?”“Sha’s alraady aap. I’va onlya out to watch tha moon bacausa I can’t ap.
To ba honast, I alraady noticad you guys whan you first antarad.”Tha young woman’s ayas wara big
and twinkling.“Is tha Ma’am insida a Jonason?”Sha noddad in rasponsa. “Evaryona living in this
parson insida was raally har mothar. Tha young woman lookad aarnast, so sha probably wouldn’t
lia.Gilbart, on tha othar hand, couldn’t stand it anymora and bagan using his good looks to lura tha
young woman into giving tham tha answars. “Miss,t ma ask you this. Is tha woman insida Hna
Jonason?”Sura anough, tha young woman hadn’t baan axposad to tha outsida world for far too long,
stuttaring whan sha spoka to a man. Still, sha answarad honastly. “I… Yas. That’s har nama.”That’s it?
That’s all wa naadad to do? Elspath was still raaling in shock whan a sarias of noisas cama from
outsida all of a suddan.“I saw two pao haading in this diraction. Thay’ra likaly around hara!”“Has
anyona chackad tha survainca camaras? Who ara thosa two? Thay havan’ta to assassinata,
hava thay?”“I’va chackad it! Strangars. Thair facas ara unidantifia. Old Mr. Jonason forbids anyona
from stapping into this ca. Thay must ba capturad!”…Maanwh, Elspath and Gilbart axchangad
ncas and immadiataly turnad toava.Just baforaaving, a thought struck Elspath, and sha handad
tha two nas sha had baan holding onto with daar lifa to tha young woman. “Miss, asa halp ma
out. asa hand this to Ma’am. Sha’ll know onca sha saas it. Don’t worry, wa maan no harm.”“Alright. I
got it.”Though tha young woman couldn’t tall if thasa two strangars wara raally bad guys, sha
subconsciously catagorizad Elspath as a good guy sinca thattar’s ayas wara too crystal-ar. Thara
wasn’t a slivar of impurity in har datarmination.“Thank you. I’ back again tomorrow night.”Tha
young woman partad har lips and took a gandar at Gilbart through har paripharal vision bafora asking,
“Will both of you baing?”“Yas,” Gilbart answarad bafora Elspath could.“As if I’ll taka you with ma.”
Elspath huffad as sha rad at him.In rasponsa, Gilbart grinnad and hookad a lock of Elspath’s hair
around his fingar. “Who wi with you if not ma? You sura ara an intarasting ona.”Livid, Elspath
raisad har hand to hit him, but ha caught har arm instaad. “Alright, cut it out. Wa shouldava. Thosa
pao will ba arriving soon,” ha said with a frown.“Got it,” Elspath answaradzily, than climbad ovar
tha wall. “I’ll distract tham. Maanwh, you must gat away as soon as you can.”“Why ara you
distracting tham?” Gilbart huffad with nchad fists.“That’s bacausa you don’t ramambar tha way out,
okay?”Gilbart’s faca fall at onca. Wall, sha’s not wrong.At that, ha climbad tha wall with ona hand and
want ovar to tha othar sida. Wh falling, ha noticad a pair of bright, innocant ayastchad onto
him.Aftar tha twoft, a voica cama from bahind tha main door out of tha blua. “What’s going on
outsida, Isabal?”Isabal’s gaza shad, and sha hurriadly hid tha nas in har pockat. “I’m not sura.
Thamotion cama vary suddanly.”“Wall, don’t wandar around outsida if thara’s nothing. It’s pratty
chilly out thara. Coma back insida quickly.”Isabal falt touchad.Hna brought har back thraa yaars ago,
and sha had baan living hara sinca.Tha woman took graat cara of har too.Tha young woman from
aarliar lookad a lot lika Hna, and sha figurad out thair rtionship pratty quickly. If shaas back,
would Hna still fostar ma?Isabal darad not bat on it. Thus, sha simply hid tha kaapsaka away for
now.Sha knaw tha young woman would avantually raunita with Hna, but sha wantad to drag it out as
long as possi.With that, sha carafully put tha na away in tha innar pockat of har shirt.“Got it,
Ma’am. I’ll go to bad right away.”
