Jabez growled at Levi, glaring at him intently.
“Yeah. We know you have her! Don’t play dumb!”
“You’re the last one to see her off! She went missing right after that!”
“Where are you hiding her? You can’t just take her away just because you don’t want her to join The Cardinal Hall.”
…
Almost everyone was yelling at Levi, but let’s turn back time a bit to see what happened.
After Levi bade goodbye to Forlevia, Kaiden and his team went to the room to fetch Forlevia. However, she was nowhere to be found.
Everyone made a quick sweep around the manor, but they found no trace of her. It was as if she disappeared into thin air.
Everyone immediately thought that Levi had hidden Forlevia. After all, he was the last one to say goodbye, and Forlevia was gone right after he came out of the room. That made him the prime suspect.
Zoey glared at Levi, upset and disappointed. “I know you don’t want her to go. I share the sentiment, but she deserves this. There’s no point keeping her locked up in a cage. You’d better hand her over, or else.”
Everyone else urged Levi, “Hand Evie over! They’re in a hurry back to The Cardinal Hall.”
Kaiden and his team were furious, but they were scared of Levi’s power, so they didn’t do anything just yet.
Everyone was glaring at Levi, asking him to hand Forlevia over. However, the person in question was flummoxed.
He didn’t know what happened, so the sudden interrogation came as a shock. It took him nearly one minute, but he eventually figured out what was happening.
The realization that his daughter was missing made his body tremble with rage, and he clenched his fists. “What did you just say? Evie’s missing?”
“Oh, he’s still playing dumb. Drop the act. We know you have her.”
Zoey raised her voice, “Yes, she’s missing! If you’re hiding her, please just hand her over now!”
Levi almost fainted after hearing the confirmation from Zoey, but he forced himself to stay conscious. Sh*t! Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t! Someone took her away under our noses. I’m not letting that happen.
And then Levi was off like the wind, leaving everyone confused.
“What’s he doing? He’s still not handing her over?”
“Hold it right there, Levi!”
…
Levi went on a search for Forlevia. After a quick scan of the surrounding area, he noticed the remnants of a special energy deep in a forest. Apparently, Forlevia was abducted.
Levi’s Team Of Secret Warriors quickly congregated around him, but they found nothing as well.
Since Levi was there himself, he positioned his team slightly far away, so if the enemy was a powerful one, they might just get away with it without anyone noticing.
And this case was the best example. Even with Levi and the warriors from The Cardinal Hall in the manor, the enemy still managed to take Forlevia away.
“Dammit. I was careless.” He smacked his forehead. He left Forlevia alone because he couldn’t bear to see her off, but that gave the enemy an opening.
Who took Evie away? Levi roared into the high heavens. He blamed himself for letting Forlevia get abducted even though he was already so cautious with her.
Even though he didn’t know who the culprit was, one thing was for sure: the enemy must be a powerful organization. If they weren’t, they couldn’t have taken Forlevia away under the noses of The Cardinal Hall.
“I see. They’ve been waiting for this opening a long time now.” The Cardinal’s Hall arrival gave them the exact chance they needed.
“Where’s Evie? Hand her over!” everyone started yelling at him, much to his chagrin.
Evie’s f*cking abducted, and you damn imbeciles still think I’m the one who tucked her away?
