    Chapter 313


    313 No remedy?


    Lolita coughed a few more times as she rubbed her neck. ‘Monster!‘ she thought. 1


    Why would she even think that someone like Matt would be easy to woo? A person who is friends with


    Alpha Chaos!


    However, no matter what, she’s just starting and would never stop until he epts her or gets


    married. With that thought in mind, Lolita’s lips broke into a beam.


    After Matt left the hospital, he went straight to Maverick’s house.


    Inside Maverick’s dimmed study room, Matt was seen sitting on a couch while Maverick was standing


    by the window and staring at the bright city.


    “The suppression pills‘ experiment failed,” Matt stated.


    Maverick froze. After a long time had passed without hearing anything from Maverick, Matt continued;


    “I tried the pills on those who just got injected and it worked. But for those who had it for years, it


    failed… A patient also died because of the experiment.”


    Maverick finally turned around and asked; “You’re saying, she’ll die?”


    Matt nodded. “If she takes the pills, she’ll die and if she takes the old pills, she’ll also die.”


    Maverick stayed silent for a long time before he asked; “No other remedy?”


    Doctor Matt shook his head, “No-”


    “Then, what the f*ck are you doing here?!” Maverick frowned.


    What nonsense is he being told? That his wife would die?? Is Matt insane?!


    “There’s still hope. I’m here to know what’s going on with her body after you gave her the Rainborite


    stone, Matt said.


    Maverick’s brows rxed and he walked back to his seat. “She’ll be back tonight.”


    “Oh, the stone didn’t disappear from her ring?”


    Maverick nodded his head in response.


    “That’s strange,” he frowned slightly. “Or, has the ore returned to the mine?”


    Maverick stared at him like an idiot without answering.


    Matt sighed when he saw that demeaning look. “Don’t me me, it’s weird.” Then he changed the


    topic; “What do you intend to do? Have you found those people?”


    “The SIN,” Maverick replied.


    The instant Matt heard that his eyes widened. “The SIN? How did they set you as their enemy? When


    did you offend them?”


    Maverick shook his head and ttened his lips. “Have no idea,” he said and pulled out a sparkling knife


    from his drawer and started to y with it.


    Matt eyed the knife before continuing: “May, this is moreplicated than I thought. I’m sure they’ll


    be back… but for now, the Rainborite ore has disappeared. The stone on Jeslyn’s ring should have left


    too, but it stayed. It’s something to worry about now because The SIN has gotten involved. If they can’t


    get the Ore, they’ll want the stone on Jeslyn’s ring. It’s dangerous for Jeslyn now, but-”


    “Then, we give them something to cry about in the meantime,” he flung the knife and it stabbed into the


    bull’s eye of a target board that was ced on the other end of the room.


    “May! Do you want to start a fight with them? They are not the Dark–Age organization that can’t kill you


    because they need you! The SIN is unfeeling!” Matt panicked.


    Maverick curled his lips. “Unfeeling? What happens if Nancy loses her son and husband?” 1


    Matt’s eyes widened in horror. “Y–yo- you…. Demon!!”


    Except for a handful, no one else knew that The SIN faction which is more viinous than the Lu, Xu,


    and Yubined belongs to a woman, Nancy.


    The SIN is a faction that rarely concerns themselves with the matters of the world. Yet, when they do,


    they don’t rest until the mission has been aplished. They don’t care if they sacrifice half of their


    men just to carry out that mission.


    As for the Rainborite Stone, it’s like an organism that hates to leave its part anywhere. Even though the


    stone was broken into different pieces, once the Ore disappears, it takes along the rest of the tiny


    stones that were used by the humans and merges them into itself.


    But Jeslyn’s case is weird. The Rainborite stone stayed with her when others left. How is that possible?


    A whileter, Matt finally asked what had been bothering his heart for a long time.


    “Hold on May, I’ve been thinking. Is there a sign of a missing page, missing words, or anything at all


    that gives a sign that the ancient book is wed or notplete?”


    “You studied it, didn’t you?”


    “Yes, I did but-” Matt sighed and stopped talking when he saw Maverick about to get up from his


    chair.


    Maverick got up and walked to the target board. Pulling out the knife, he said; “That’s not the most


    important thing to worry about right now.”

    “What else do you have in mind?”


    “The Dark- Age has to be taken care of,” he said.


    rmed, Matt asked; “You found a way?” the question was rhetorical. He knew that Maverick wouldn’t


    bring it up if he was not prepared for it.


    “Hmm,” Maverick walked back to the chair while saying, “Bring back Kimberly.”


    “Oh, you want to use Kimberly, interesting.” Matt smiled.


    In the evening. Jeslyn returned to the Country but because her Manager had been pestering her to


    return to thepany, she didn’t spend much time with Maverick before heading back.


    At Fearless Entertainment, Jeslyn entered Manager Kate’s office to see the woman standing by the


    window and staring at the city.


    “Older sister,” Jeslyn called.


    “You’re back,” Manager Kate turned to look at her. “Have a seat,” she gestured to the seat in front of


    her


    desk.


    With the both of them sitting, Manager Kate scrutinized Jeslyn for a long time before she asked;


    “Jeslyn, are you married?”


    Jeslyn choked when she heard that. “Wh–what-


    “Don’t you dare lie to me. What rtionship do you have with Chaos and his son?” Manager Kate


    narrowed his eyes on her. 1


    “Ahem,” Jeslyn cleared her throat and smiled. “They are my family.”


    “Your family, Asin… your husband and son?” she red at Jeslyn who nodded slowly with a smile on


    her lips.


    Manager Kate stared speechlessly at Jeslyn for a long time. She got up and said, “I’ll give you a week


    off, go back home.”


    “Huh?” Jeslyn looked surprised at her manager. This stubborn woman doesn’t allow her to take a few


    hour’s break unless she told her it was an emergency. Why is she suddenly giving her a week?
