“Maja, you don’t need to worry about me.” Maja coughed twice in agitation, feeling a sharp pain in her
chest. “Don’t harm him, I’ll tell you” Quentin’s eyelashes fluttered, and his heart felt scorched by a
sudden heat. He hadn’t expected her to relent so quickly. His eyes instinctively avoided hers as he
hung his head, lost in thought. The man threatening him, however, dealt Maja a harsh slap. “You
stubborn dame, took all that beating and not a peep from you—I thought you had some backbone.”
Maja’s head turned slightly, her lips stained with blood. Her gaze was serene, detached. “The Jellyfish
Seal is under the bed in my old room on Outer Island. There’s a hidden compartment in the
floorboards; it’s inside there.” Carrying the item had felt cumbersome, not because of its size but due to

there without much thought. The man released Quentin, sneering. He called out to his accomplices
outside. “Take this kid away. And someone go check that place.” Quentin suddenly reached out,
grabbing the torn fabric of Maja’s shirt, marred by the marks of the whip. He opened his mouth to
speak, the words coming slowly, “The Jellyfish Seal, is it really there?” Maja nodded. He didn’t believe
it. He had asked her before about the seal’s whereabouts, and she had mentioned the same place. It
seemed implausible that anyone would casually leave something so valuable just lying around. Maja’s
voice was hoarse, shaky from the pain. “That was the first place I felt safe after arriving on Forbidden
Island. Plus, the Brennan family had been refurbishing the place. Other people would assume they’d
already scoured the area, which is why I hid it there.” Quentin was momentarily at a loss for words.
Still, he remained skeptical. Perhaps because he had always been pretending, he found it hard to
believe that someone could be sincere. As two men escorted him out, Maja continued to plead. “I’ve

where the Jellyfish Seal is. Shouldn’t you let him go now?” “Hmph, once we find that thing, we’ll release
him. What’s the rush?” After he spoke, the man’s gaze lingered on Maja’s face. “I hadn’t noticed how
pretty you are. No one’s coming to save you, so why don’t I have my fun first? After I’m bored, I’ll pass
you to my men.” Maja’s face turned pale as Quentin was led away. The door shut, leaving only Maja

dragged him out now knelt, not daring to offend him. Quentin was a monster born from the scent of
blood, but it was the very thing he loathed most. His fingers traced the bloodstain, his voice icy. “Deal
with the one inside.” A dog that didn’t obey its master had no reason to exist. “Yes.” Just as the man
inside unbuckled his belt, a bullet pierced his chest. His eyes widened in shock, not even knowing who
had killed him. Maja didn’t know either; she only heard the gunshot. As she braced herself for the
ordeal, the man fell, collapsing about a meter from her. She thought someone had come to her rescue,
but after half an hour, no one else entered the room or made contact. Exhausted and in pain, she
endured until the late hours of the night. Quentin sat in the lobby, waiting for his people to retrieve the
Jellyfish Seal. Another hour passed, and his expression grew colder. Clearly, Maja had lied.
