"Ah," Rex scratched his nose. "It was anonymous. I couldn't replace anything."

Maverick took a deep breath. What the fans were saying didn't affect him at all. What he needed right now was to replace his woman. "Keep an eye out. They'll post something else soon."

"OK, brother."

Meanwhile, the doctors could be seen treating the unconscious Jeslyn, while Reuben paced back and

forth in the room.

After a long while, the head doctor took off his gloves and said to Reuben.

"She's out of danger now. You should be careful with her from now on. She can't handle stress or what

fluctuates her emotions."

"Oh, please, stop beating around the bush and hit the nail on the head! Tell me, what is wrong with her?" he glared at the doctor.

The man took a deep breath and uttered, "She's pregnant... Three months pregnant."

"Shut up!!"

"Bang!"

Reuben punched the doctor in the face in rage. He grabbed the doctor by his collar and pulled him forward. With his furious eyes glaring daggers at the man, he conveyed.

"You are mistaken! Run that test again and again, and again until the result comes out negative... I don't care what you do, or how you do it! I also don't care if you have to abort the pregnancy, all I want to hear after three hours is that she is negative!!"

He threw the man to the side and stormed out of the room.

The doctor sat powerlessly on the floor until two nurses came to help him up.

"Doctor, she is Alpha Chaos' wife. The child must also be his. We will be in trouble if we get rid of it," one of the nurses said with worry.

"You'll need to secure your life here first before you think about what Alpha Chaos would do to you," the other nurse objected.

"Whether we leave here alive or not, either way, we shall die. But consider the little thing we'll be getting rid of. We took an oath to save lives, our goal is to preserve lives and bring new ones into the world. We don't kill people!” The first nurse argued.

"I have a family I want to return to. We can worry about Alpha Chaos' wrath later. Moreover, they might not know that she is pregnant." The second nurse disagreed again.

"Enough you two! I know what to do!" The doctor interrupted.

Three hours later, Reuben returned to the room but didn't see blood stains like he expected. Wrath

burnt in his chest as he looked at the doctors and nurses standing in front of him with their heads

bowed.

Reuben felt the urge to clip them. "What is the result?" he asked.

"I'm sorry, Master Reuben, we couldn't do it because she would die if her baby was tampered with." "Are you giving me an excuse to pardon you?"

"No, Mr. Reuben. Her heartbeat and the child's is quite... unique. I don't know how to explain it."

"And you think I care about your incompetence? Your life or death depends on the knowledge you feed me." Reuben pulled out a knife and caressed the head doctor's face with it. "The knife is so sharp that a small cut..." he drew the knife across the man's cheek and drew some blood. "... Like this in the throat will end your miserable life."

The doctor didn't dare to move, but his shaking legs and sweaty forehead was a dead giveaway that he was more scared than the others who were kneeling.

"I- their heartbeats are intertwined, it's as though they only have one heart," He explained.

"It still doesn't make sense. Since the child doesn't have a heartbeat, it means it's dead. So bring it out He trailed the knife to the doctor's throat. Just a little pressure on the wrist would send the doctor to his grave.

The man swallowed nervously. "Th- the heartbeat seems to belong to the- child."

Reuben stared at him like a fool for a while before his lips curled into a villainous smile. Just as he was about to draw the knife across the man's throat, Jeslyn moved on the bed.

Seeing this, Reuben immediately hurried to the bed. Her lips were moving, she was saying something When he lowered his ear to her lips, he heard her murmuring;

"Maverick..."

Reuben's face changed and he got up. He looked at the four nurses and two doctors and ordered;

"She is two weeks pregnant. Tell her that when she wakes up." He stormed out after that.

The head doctor fell to his knees and sat on the floor for a long time for blood to circulate well around his body. Just now, he was scared witless that his blood froze for a while. Behind the mountains, in the autumn forest, a chopper came to a stop. Damien got out with Randy and five men trailing behind them.

They looked around them before Randy spoke.

"This is the popular Mystery forest?"

"Yes, it is. If there's an ocean anywhere around here, then it should be where the aircraft, Bluehair F2220 crashed into."

"You mean the aircraft Jeslyn was in last year?"

"Yes. Also," he pulled out his phone to check his signal. "The signal here is pretty bad. Once we leave here, replace a way to send Maverick a message."

"But Master, this is dangerous. We don't know how many men your brother has on standby, yet you didn't take an army along. Are you not scared of-" "Stop talking and keep following me. This place is not safe."

"How did you know?"

"I don't know. Wait to replace out for yourself." Damien waved for the pilot to send the chopper back.

"What would we get back with?"

"If you're able to preserve your life, that is." Damien and Randy continued trekking down the forest.

They didn't stop anywhere close to the glasshouse for fear of Reuben getting alerted. They wanted to catch him off guard.

At the glasshouse...

Jeslyn stirred awake to see people in white standing around her. She immediately sat up, looking defensive.

"Wh who are you?" she asked, pulling up a false bravado.

"Relax, don't be afraid. I'm Doc. Jeffery and this is my team. We were brought here to look into your

case."

"I'm not unwell!" She snapped at the man who was trying to smile at her with her hands tightly holding the sheets close to her chest.

"Indeed, you are perfectly fine." The man and the others smiled.

"Then, why are you here?" Even though they were trying to make her see that they weren't harmful, Jeslyn refused to loosen up her defence.

"You fell unconscious for two weeks, so we were brought here by your husband-'

Jeslyn's eyes slowly widened as joy and happiness washed over her. Just as she was about to throw her sheets off and run out to look for her husband, the doctor sent her a devastating blow. "Congratulations, you are two weeks pregnant! Mr. Reuben is very excited about the news and-"

Everything else he said flew right over Jeslyn's head. The only words she could hear echoing in her mind were the words, 'Two weeks pregnant!'
