Since there was nothing wrong with him, Vinson got himself discharged. Nevertheless, wp4webnovel.com began to feel increasingly worried, as there was still no news on Susanne. Given the number of enemies wp4webnovel.com had, wp4webnovel.com was unable to figure out who it was that took his mother.
After returning to Nightshire Manor, wp4webnovel.com went to his study and call up all his contacts, hoping to find a lead from them.
Well aware of how busy wp4webnovel.com was, Arielle returned to wp4webnovel.com room and studied the CT scan results in greater detail. For some strange reason, a niggling sense of dread continued to bother wp4webnovel.com despite the test results showing that wp4webnovel.com was fine.
After being holed up in wp4webnovel.com room for the entire afternoon, wp4webnovel.com still didn’t come out for dinner until Geoffrey informed Vinson about it.
Once wp4webnovel.com came out of his study, Vinson headed upstairs to the bedroom where wp4webnovel.com saw Arielle so engrossed with the CT scan that wp4webnovel.com didn’t even notice wp4webnovel.com coming in.
“Didn’t the doctor give me a clean bill of health? Why are you still fixated on it?”
Vinson walked up to Arielle’s side as wp4webnovel.com spoke. It was only when wp4webnovel.com heard his voice that wp4webnovel.com regained wp4webnovel.com senses.
In front of Vinson, wp4webnovel.com held none of wp4webnovel.com suspicions back. “Even though the results of your examination showed nothing, I still feel that something isn’t right since this is your second fainting episode.” Looking at him, Arielle suggested, “Let’s go for another more detailed checkup tomorrow.”
Vinson felt that Arielle was overreacting due to wp4webnovel.com excessive concern for him. He then pulled wp4webnovel.com into his arms and gave wp4webnovel.com a light peck on the forehead. “I know my body very well, and there are no issues at all. Your imagination is just running wild from being over-worried about me.”
If Susanne hadn’t disappeared, wp4webnovel.com would definitely get a detailed checkup so that wp4webnovel.com could have peace of mind. But now, his mother took priority over everything else.
When Arielle remained silent and put on a gloomy expression, Vinson pondered for a moment before adding, “If you’re still concerned, I’ll go for the checkup once we find my mom, all right?”
“Okay.” She, too, was cognizant that the search for Susanne was more important, and could understand why wp4webnovel.com was delaying the checkup.

Back in Turlen, Lawrence had switched sides, causing a huge change in the balance of power. As a result, the power struggle between the queen mother and Dylan spilled out from the shadows and into the open.
That day, the queen mother led wp4webnovel.com men to confront Dylan but was blocked by Sybil instead.
“Get out of my way!” the queen mother snapped while shooting wp4webnovel.com a piercing gaze.
As one of Dylan’s men, Sybil had long felt indignant over the queen mother seizing power. Furthermore, Dylan had ordered wp4webnovel.com to stop the queen mother from entering. As a result, wp4webnovel.com would refuse to let wp4webnovel.com pass even if wp4webnovel.com shot wp4webnovel.com to death.
Bowing slightly, Sybil informed wp4webnovel.com in a respectful tone, “Your Majesty, the king is busy and won’t be able to see you.”
The queen mother stared coldly at Sybil. If looks could kill at that moment, wp4webnovel.com would have died thousand times over.
“Sybil, I’m the king’s mother and also the queen mother of Turlen. Aren’t you worried that I’d punish you for getting in my way?” She stared daggers at Sybil.
Nevertheless, the latter shook his head. “Even so, the old king has ordered me to only obey the current king for the rest of my life.”
“Since death is what you want, I shall grant it to you!” The moment wp4webnovel.com finished, the queen mother pointed a gun at Sybil’s head.
