FreeNovelChapter 92
Xeno sent Nash to the gates of Rex District and said, “Nash, we’re here.”
Nash nodded. “I’m sorry to trouble you.”
Overwhelmed by his remark, Xeno replied, “You exaggerate, Nash. You can look for me anytime if you
need me in the future.”
Nash got out of the vehicle with Hera in his arms.
Skadi was still looking at Xeno. She could not help but think that she had seen this person before. Still,
she did not manage to put a finger on it even after some time passed.
Back at the apartment, Nash laid Hera on the bed and started massaging the back of her neck as he
imbued his energy with every push.
“Is Hera alright?” Skadi asked nervously.
Nash nodded. “It’s not a big problem. What happened, though? Did you two offend someone again?”
Seated on the computer chair, Skadi shook her head and answered, “Hera is so pure and kind. How
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcould she have offended anyone? I wouldn’t dare cause trouble out there either since I want to protect
her.”
Recalling how she had almost been defiled just now, she immediately felt aggrieved and shifted the
blame to Nash. “You talk like it isn’t your fault. If you’d gone shopping with Hera, we wouldn’t have
been kidnapped.”
Nash joked, “Aren’t you a martial arts champion in Jonford? How did a group of hooligans manage to
subdue you?”
Skadi’s expression morphed slightly, but she was quick to retort, “They snuck onto us with a tranquilizer
gun. I was careless.” It was a silent tranquilizer gun that caused the target to instantly lose
consciousness upon getting hit.
She had only been thinking about checking out the food stalls with Hera and stopped paying attention
to their surroundings, which was how they ended up falling into a trap.
Nash could not help but smile at that, but he did not say anything more.
Skadi crossed her legs and folded her arms across her chest as she reprimanded him, “Nash, this is
already the second time. Hera’s going to end up hurt if you continue to be so casual.”
He nodded solemnly at that. “You’re right. I’ll definitely keep that in mind.”
She leaned back against the chair and muttered softly, “First, it was assassins. Now, it’s the Green
Bamboo Association. Hera guessed that her uncle is the one who sent those assassins, but could he
also be behind the Green Bamboo Association?”
Nash kept silent since he had no idea who caused this.
Skadi took out Hera’s cell phone. She was about to report Hera’s safety to Lauren when she noticed
the 90 missed calls the moment she switched on the phone.
They were mostly from Lauren and Harrison, and Mr. Lewis had also snuck a few calls in. What caught
her eye was a number saved as ‘Little Master,’ and this person had called three times.
Skadi dialed the number out of curiosity.
The phone in Nash’s pocket quickly vibrated. He fished his phone out of his pocket and saw that it was
Hera’s number.
He turned and looked at Skadi, only to hear her say, “Little Master…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe hung up and called Lauren. In just three seconds, Lauren answered the call and said sharply,
“Hera, where have you been? Why haven’t you been answering your phone?”
Skadi could hear a lot more noises from the other end of the phone.
It sounded like Rooney cursing.
“Lauren, i-it’s Skadi. Hera’s phone ran out of battery when we were shopping!”
Skadi did not dare tell her what had happened just now as she did not want to worry her.
Lauren’s tone softened a little when she heard that. “Where’s Hera? Can you put her on the phone?”
“Hera, she… Uh….”
Skadi looked at Hera, who was still unconscious, and did not know what to say.
Nash got up and went toward Skadi. He grabbed the phone, answering, “Hello, Lauren. Hera’s asleep
right now.”
Lauren heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Nash’s voice but quickly frowned again. “You three are
together?”
Nash laughed and answered, “They went to watch a movie tonight, so I tagged along. We’re on our
way home now. We’re in the car.”
Only then did Lauren feel her worry melt away. Right after that, she yelled, “Harrison, stop hitting him!”
Then, the call went dead.
