The group quickly made it to the villa mansion. Everyone headed back to their rooms to get srest. Pax was about to do the swhen Connor grabbed him by the arm. "From now on, you stick with Chloe. Don't leave her side for even a second." Pax was already feeling down. The image of his uncle forcefully kissing Chloe still haunted him. For the first time, he resisted angrily, "Why should I follow your orders?" "Because your mother wants to kill her," Connor replied, his voice steady.
Pax frowned. "Why are you slandering my mom?" "Pax, we used to shield you from the truth to protect you, so you can grow up in a positive environment. But it's tyou face reality. Your mother is ruthless. She's tried to assassinate13 times, twice with her own hands." Pax was stunned. He stared at Connor, not wanting to believe it, but Connor's calm expression didn't seem like he was lying.

Do you think your mother will let that slide? Since we got to the island, they've been in one incident after another. Do you think it's all a coincidence?" Pax had to admit, things did seem suspicious. But he still couldn't wrap his head around the idea that his mother would commit murder. Eventually, though, he agreed to Connor's plan.
Connor didn't go to his room. Instead, he intended to negotiate with Claire. But he had no clue where she was. So, he found the butler.
The butler also claimed ignorance.
Connor handed the butler a box. "Please, give this to my sister." By dinner time, Claire still hadn't shown up. Given all the recent events, no one felt like going out after dinner. They all retreated to their rooms.
Tomorrow was supposed to be the last day of the recording. Chloe pondered whether Claire would let them leave once it was over. Just then, they received a notice from the production team. A typhoon was approaching and would pass by the island in the next few days Recording had to be delayed.
What a coincidence, Chloe thought, her heart sinking.

Since dinner, Pax had been hanging out in Chloe's room. Usually so chatty, he seemed preoccupied How. He lay on the couch with his back to Chloe lost in thought. Chloe didn't ask him to leave. She knew that, right now, Pax was her protector.
Outside, the sea breeze howled, making the windows rattle. The typhoon really seemed to be coming. Chloe stepped onto the balcony to take in the stormy night. Suddenly, a dark figure leaped down from above, pressing a cloth soaked inether over her mouth. Chloe struggled briefly before passing out.
Pax thought he heard something. He turned around but saw nothing. He got up. "Chloe, where are you?” Chloe had been right there, but now she was nowhere to be seen. A terrible feeling gnawed at Pax's gut. X
