Chapter 215

Iya castle in Skeynia, the study room which had received a makeover looked identical to Its previousstate.

Even the murals on the wall were restored, which made it seem like the whole arson episode instigatedby Noah had never even happened.

Joseph was leaning on his chair in front of an antique study table. He propped up his chin with hisslender fingers as he enjoyed a playback of the surveillance video on his monitor.

He knew that Madeline had plans to visit the castle, so he had put all preparations into place. He hadturned the castle into an empty one!

He was doing this so that he could lead Madeline to believe that she had gotten her hands on herdesired information.

The pivotal part of this plan lied on Angie.

However, the moment he saw how Madeline reacted when she met Angie, anger slowly crept into hiseyes.

Angie had failed!

She had actually failed!

Immediately, a flurry of raging emotions took over him. Joseph immediately went berserk as he flunghis cane to smash the monitor into pieces.

Then, he stormed out of the room and came all the way to three floors deep into the basement.

He stood in front of a cell in which Angie was held captive.

Angie was lying on the ground. Her wound was infected, and she was groggy because of a fever

When she heard someone coming by, she instinctively crawled over to ask for help.

Despite that, she couldn’t muster enough strength to do that.

“Save me…” Angie’s voice was barely audible as if she was going to breathe her last at any moment.

Joseph stomped in and stared at the weakened woman on the ground. There was still Intense anger inhis eyes.

“Angie, you can’t even accomplish something so simple, yet you expect me to save you?”

“Mr Joseph, I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just that Madeline is really a cunning b*tch!”

“She’s a b*tch, you say? Who do you think you are to insult Maddie?”

“Mr. Joseph, I… Ah!” When Angie saw that Joseph was approaching her, she let out a gasp on reflex.

Joseph paid no heed to her outburst of emotion as he quickly swung his cane in front of Angie’s face.

In no time, the thick bandages that used to cover her face fell into pieces.

That revealed the grotesque and bloody wound on Angie’s face, a truly frightening sight.

As Angie felt the bandages come off of her face, intense pain immediately assaulted her.

She reached out to touch the uneven skin on her face, and as she got a whiff of a bloody stench, shecould not help but scream loudly.

“Ahh, my face, my face…”

“It seems that your face will never recover. Too bad. Joseph squatted down while pinching his nose. Hegazed at her appalling face and lamented.

“Mr. Joseph, I know you’re good at this. Help me fix my face, please? I beg you…”

“Fix your face? Why should I do that?”

“Mr. Joseph, don’t you love Madeline? What about making my face look like hers? I can be herreplacement. I know I can do that!”

What an amusing idea.”

Joseph suddenly gained interest in the development of things as he took out a small bottle andproduced a pink-colored pill. He tossed that pill onto the ground.

“Eat it. Whether you can survive this to see tomorrow, that’s entirely up to you.”

This is…” Angie carefully picked up the pill while her heart raced.

Joseph was always an enigmatic person. Angie would not dare lo consume anything that he had givenher.

“This is the Recovery Pill that I recently developed. It has the ability to close up your

wounds in just a day. However, you will go through hellish pain in the process, the kind that will hurt youdeep to your core. What do you think? Isn’t it exciting?”

Joseph looked smugly at the bottle. This invention was what he considered his magnum opus.

One pill was all it took for someone to fully recover from the most terrible wounds.

The effects even extended to all the old scars.

On the flip side, this extraordinary medication had some irreversible side effects, that is. one’s lifespanwould be shortened greatly.

The price to pay for swallowing one pill was ten years of one’s life.

If one were to swallow three pills in a row, although that person would feel like they were reborn, thatperson would retire to the afterlife in just half a year.

However, Joseph did not plan to disclose that to Angie.

“Mr. Joseph, I…”

“What? Don’t tell me you don’t have the guts?”

“No way. Your word is my command.” Angie quickly came to a decision as she tossed the pill into hermouth and swallowed it.

She must live on!

Joseph felt amused after seeing her swallowing the pill without a second thought.

When he left, he specially ordered the guards to look after Angie.

“Look after her property. As long as she is still alive tomorrow, let Kennedy take over this

matter.”

Kennedy Wheeler was Joseph’s senior, and he too was a doctor in this castle.

He was a prodigious doctor but at the same time, he was very eccentric. The prototypical genius.

“Yes, sir.”

Madeline’s sleep was interrupted by a persistent ringing sound early in the morning.

She felt like she was still in slumber, but her phone was ringing non-stop on a nightstand hext to herbed.

She had no choice but to reach out from under her blanket. She answered the call while her eyes werestill shut.

“Sir, the car is ready now. It’s time to depart to the company. All the directors are already there.”

“Hello, who is this?”

“Ugh… Mrs. Quincy?”

Madeline was still in a daze, but she quickly snapped back to her senses upon hearing that.

She no longer felt any sense of sleepiness.

“Wayne?”

“I’m really sorry for the intrusion, Mrs. Quincy. I didn’t know that you are with Mr. Quincy right now…”She could feel that Wayne was blushing on the other end of the phone.

Before Madeline could probe further, he quickly ended the call.

Madeline froze a little as she heard the monotonous sound that indicated the end of a call. She thenchecked the phone and realized that she had taken the wrong one.

it was not just that. A sudden realization dawned on her that she was not just using the wrong phone.

This room did not look like hers!

Did she sleepwalk again?

She turned to her side as this thought occurred to her.

Luckily, Noah was not here.

Otherwise, it would be so awkward!

However, when she recalled what Wayne had said on the phone, Madeline hesitated a little beforedeciding to look for Noah with his phone in her hand.

It seemed like Wayne was talking about some directors’ meeting. It was best if Noah was not late for it.

As she was immersed in her messy thoughts, Madeline walked to the door to exit the foom.

The moment she opened the door, she saw Mr. Charles standing there with breakfast in a tray.

“Ugh, good morning, Mr. Charles. Will you believe me if I say that I am just dropping by?”

Madeline felt a little awkward, and her face was steaming hot with embarrassment.

Mr. Charles was caught off guard by the sight of her, but he quickly resumed a gentle smile as hegreeted her, “Good morning, Mrs. Quincy.”

Mr. Charles bowed respectfully.

Then, he proceeded to examine her with that ever-so-gentle smile still lingering on his face. However,when he finally replied to her question, Madeline felt even more embarrassed.

“I don’t believe you.” Mr. Charles was being honest.

“Mr. Charles, you’re a funny guy! Do you know where Noah is right now? I need to pass him hisphone.” Madeline waved the phone in an attempt to tone down the awkwardness in the air.

This was the right move. She must appear to have a proper reason to be here.

“I think he is downstairs, what about you looking for him there? One more thing. I suggest that youhave a change of clothes before doing that, Mrs. Quincy.”
