Chapter 113 

Queenie confronted Rebecca, glaring at her in anger

u not worried, but you’re even smiling

What are you smiling about, Rebecca? Madison’s inside that shrine, yet not only are you not 

about me even if you dislike me, Queenie” 

Rebecca blinked up at her innocently. When did I ever smile? You can’t make things up She looked toward Tanya, a pitiful expression on her face. Mom, I didn’t smile. How could I when Maddie is facing danger inside?Tanya comforted her, I know. I believe you.” 

She turned her cold gaze to Queenie. Queenie, I’m not going to hold it against you this time out of respect for the Anderson stop trying to sow discord between Becky and Maddie.” 

family. But 

Queenie simply gritted her teeth and exhaled heavily, but she said nothing in reply. She looked worriedly toward the shrine, not letting a single movement escape her eyes

Rebecca flashed her a provoking grin

to argue with her any further. This made Queenie angrier. She glared at Rebecca but swallowed down her rage and chose not to Tanya was obviously biased toward Rebecca. No matter what she said right now, it wouldn’t change a thing All she could do for the moment was pray for Madison’s safe return

a warm orange glow

Everyone waited quietly, even as the sun started to set, covering the mountain in a warm Rebecca stood up. Mom, it’s getting dark. We shouldn’t stay at the ghost shrine after dark.Tanya stared worriedly at the shrine. Let’s wait a little longer.” 

On the other hand, Queenie was at the limit of her patience. She waved a hand, directing the few bodyguards she had with her. We’re going in.” 

A few burlylooking bodyguards walked up to the gates. They reached out and shoved the doors, but they didn’t budge an inch. And it wasn’t just the doors. The windows refused to budge too

Break them down,Queenie ordered

The bodyguards ran at the doors and slammed against them hard. There was a dull thud, but again, the doors didn’t move an inch. The wooden doors looked thin and flimsy, yet were as tough and heavy as steel. No, they were even tougher than steel

Nate stood up too. You guys go help as well.” 

The bodyguards surrounding Nate went up to the doors and tried slamming them open as well

Mr. Yule, the doors won’t budge.” 

The men had rather nasty frowns on their faces

They had experienced all kinds of situations, but standing under the shrine root, they felt a chill run down their spines. Ant unexplainable fear gripped them

Something feels ominous about this place, Mr. Yule.” 

Queenie’s bodyguards nodded in agreement. Very ominous

Even if the doors and windows couldn’t be broken down, it didn’t make sense for them not to move a single inch from that much force

Rebecca glanced at the darkening sky. Morn, let’s head back first. There are unspoken rules in place for ghost shrines. They say one shouldn’t remain at a ghost shrine after dark, or else bad things will happen.” 

Everyone reacted differently to her words

Queenie looked at her with a complicated expression

A few bodyguards quickly backed away from the shrine

Look, Ms. Andersonone of Queenie’s bodyguards began to speak

Mr. Yule, we may be on your payroll, butSee, we definitely wouldn’t be afraid if we were facing a livi 

But unknown entities like these were the scariest

living person” 

Then what about Madison?asked queenie, looking worriedly toward the shrine

Nobody said a word

The sky continued to darken until only a sliver of light remained on the horizon

Rebecca hugged Tanya’s arm. Mom, I’m scared.” 

Hearing Rebecca repeatedly mention her fear, Tanya immediately declared, Don’t be scared. We’ll head down the mountain right now

Madison is still in there, Mrs. Locke. Are we just going to leave like this?” 

Tanya turned to look back at the shrine again, hesitant
