Chapter 972
Charmine frowned and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"There’s a problem with this box!" Hugh called out.
He had seen the box during the day and examined the sword thoroughly.
According to the length and shape of the sword, the item should not have this weight!
Opening the box, it was revealed to be a completely different sword, as expected. It seemed to be a cheaply made sword instead!
Charmine and Guy were utterly shocked at Hugh's comment.
How could it be?
"Impossible. I even opened the box to check on it when I got it out. I only took it out after making sure it's a real sword," insisted Charmine.
'The agents from Safford even chased after US," added Guy. "It can't be a fake sword they're going after!”
"So where's the problem?" Hugh was perplexed.
Charmine squinted as she jogged her memory, and only a moment later did she reply, tone cold, "Someone swapped it on the way."
On the way?
Guy frowned. "Impossible. Only the two of US held the box along the way, and nobody else could’ve touched it except when..."
He paused there and his pupils dilated. "I remember: it was in the forest! After Ms. Jordan fainted, I noticed she had a fever so I had to leave her to gather some wood. I think the sword was swapped out then!"
Charmine's eyes narrowed. If it happened then, it showed that someone had been following them.
Who was it, however? What for? To get the sword?
She asked, "What’s the value of this sword?"
