Chapter 370 Another Encounter With Whitney 

What’s wrong, Zoey? You look like you’re scared of me Yael smiled as he moved closer

+5 Free Con 

His smile was bright, but to me, thanks to my warped perception of the Carlyn brothers, it appeared as if he were a skeleton wearing human skin, grinning at me like a deathly apparition 

His smile was like a flower blooming from the rotten depths of death

I pushed down the discomfort in my chest and smiled back at him. I’m just a little surprised, didn’t expect to run into you here.” 

Yael handed me a small plate with a piece of cake and said, I’m here with my brother for a business meeting. He thinks I’m old enough now to start getting involved in some projects. Zoey, do you like cake

How could I eat what he gave me

I couldn’t risk it. I feared that if I ate it, I might wake up with half my skin peeled off. Yet he still asked if it tasted good

I’m not really a fan. I was hungry just now, but I already eaten. Thank you, Yael Cake is too sweet, so I’ll pass. It’s easy to gain weight.” 

He naturally pulled his hand back. I see. Then I’ll have some on my own.” 

How long will you be in Jaford, Yael?I casually asked, trying to make conversation

It depends on my brother’s schedule. I’m not sure.” 

Since his brother was also in Jaford, I asked, What about Whitney? Is she here too?” 

Yael didn’t answer my question directly. Instead, he gave me a meaningful look. Why are you so concerned about her?” 

Last time she had a breakdown. It looked dangerous, and I’m worried she might be struggling with depression. I’ve dealt with it myself, and there was a time when I even thought about ending my life. That’s why I feel for her.” 

You’re such a kind person,” he said, his tone almost a little too sweet. But don’t worry. Taylor loves her. and she’s doing fine.” 

If she was really doing fine, Whitney wouldn’t have been crying like that. He deliberately avoided the issue, and I didn’t feel comfortable pushing further

That’s good to hear. I should go to my husband now. Excuse me, Yael.” 

Of course, he stepped aside to let me pass

Even now, I couldn’t see a single flaw in him

I walked a good distance away, instinctively glancing back. He was standing at the cake table, selecting a slice with red jam on it

His pale skin made the red jam on the corner of his lips look almost bloodlike, and as he licked it off, it reminded me of a vampire drinking blood

He probably noticed my gaze, and he looked up and smiled at me. A chill ran down my spine, and I quickly picked up my pace to leave

In the distance, I saw Damian standing outside a room, and that helped me feel more at ease

Damian, where’s Carter?I asked

He’s inside,he said, reaching for the door to let me in 

1 waved my hands and said. He’s talking to someone. It’s not a good time for me to 

Damian said. You’re not an outsider.” 

With that, he opened the door. Inside, there were two men

Carter was sitting across from a man dressed in an allblack suit. Even his tie and shirt were black

completely 

The moment I walked in, the man’s gaze shifted toward the door. His eyes were cold and murderous. sending a wave of icy fear down my spine

Ssuch an intimidating look

I froze, unsure whether to step with my left or right foot, completely frozen for a moment, not daring to 

move

Carter quickly spoke, Chloe, come to me. Meet Mr. Chapman.” 

I finally forced myself to move, walking cautiously toward him. Hello, Mr. Chapman 

He reached out a hand, his voice cold as ice. Marc Chapman.” 

His name, like his presence, was powerful and striking, radiating a sharp, almost intimidating aura, as if he had risen from the battlefieldan untouchable force. His presence alone made most people shrink back

I’m Zoey,I said, feeling the mounting aura radiated from him. I carefully meeting his gaze and said, Sorry for interrupting 

Carter smiled gently and said, It’s fine. Mr. Chapman isn’t an outsider. We were just discussing Bloodshade.” 

Can I ask how it went?” 

Mr. Chapman recently led an operation to eliminate Bloodshade’s main headquarters, but the Dark Rose wasn’t there. They have branches all around the world

I felt a twinge of disappointment was visible in my eyes. Is that so?” 

Don’t worry. If there’s any news, I’ll let you know, Mare said, standing up

Before he left, he handed me a sleek black and gold business card. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to

contact me 

I could tell he wasn’t someone to be taken lightly, so I nodded quickly. Okay, Mr. Chapman.” 

He gave a curt nod and left. When he was completely gone did I let out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding

I’d been sitting so stiffly that my neck had gone numb

Carter, who is Mr. Chapman? His presence is overwhelming 

You could say he has a lot of power in Voshye, enough to control everything there. Coincidentally, Bloodshade’s main headquarters is in Voshye. He’s clearing his old debts, thinking he could deal them a major blow. But it turns out, the Dark Rose wasn’t there 

I blinked, curious. Does he have a personal vendetta against Bloodshade?” 

It’s a long story. He lost his one true love because of them. Do you think he hates them?” 

Bloodshade has a terrible reputation. I wonder where the Dark Rose is hiding.” 

Not for long. They won’t be able to hide much longer

I told him about the Carlyn brothers being here. Carter, if Whitney is still in the country, this is the best chance to save her

Don’t worry. I’ll have someone check on it

Carter had someone look into the boarding records, and it turned out Taylor had brought Whitney out of the countryunder the false identity of Alice

She took the place of the Whitesillegitimate daughter. Today is Mr. White’s birthday celebration. Do your think she’ll be there?” 

She might.” 

“Carter, do you think the Whites know she’s using a fake identity?”
