Chapter 1437 Unexpected Events Joanna raised her eyes, the smoke blurring her expression. She vaguely felt a cold light flicker in the woman's eyes. "Oh?" Cassius smiled, his lips curling. "I have a subordinate who found that she resembles someone he once had a brief encounter with. If that child hadn't died back then, she would be about this age now." Joanna stared at Cassius, a dangerous emotion gradually rising in her eyes.
"Joanna, there's no need to be angry,” Cassius said calmly, rubbing a dark gold cuff on his wrist. "I won't harm an innocent girl." "What exactly do you want to say?" Joanna asked coldly.
Cassius spoke in a gentle tone, but his eyes were inscrutable. "If that boy knew you had placed such a dangerous person next to him, what would he do?" Joanna's smile was extremely cold. "Did you callhere just to cause trouble for your own nephew?" Cassius smiled and gestured with his hand. "You can take her now if you want." Joanna ran her slender fingers through her hair and followed the servant to a room where Leia was being held.
Leia saw Joanna and immediately rushed over happily. "Master!" Joanna checked on her apprentice and saw that she was unharmed. Her expression improved.
She tapped Leia's forehead with her finger. "Let's go." Leia followed her, her expression wary, as they walked out of the heavily guarded estate.
Cassius stood in front of the hall and watched as the master and apprentice left. A faint mocking smile appeared on his lips.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Interesting..." Leia followed Joanna into the car. As soon as she realized they were out of danger, she becanxious. "Master, did something happen to Madam Selena?" After she handed Osvaldo the drink, she began to feel that something was amiss. When she went back to retrieve the drink, Cassius’ men blocked her way and brought her here.
Those people only took her away and didn't do anything to her, so their target must be Selena.
Leia had been worrying about Selena for the two hours she was held captive.
Joanna drove the car without any change in her voice. "Nothing major, just a failed relationship that made her cough up sblood." Leia's eyes turned red with anxiety and guilt. "It's all my fault..." A piercing sound rang out-- The speeding car suddenly cto a stop, the tires screeching against the ground, making a piercing sound.
Leia was caught off guard and bumped her head against the car seat. She didn't even have tto attend to the pain and looked up at the front seat, "Master?" Joanna remained silent.
There was a chilling coldness lingering in the air.
Leia was scared and rubbed her arm, her voice unconsciously softening as she asked, "Master, what's wrong with you?" In the darkness, a woman's voice sounded extremely cold, "You don't need to apologize to her." Leia widened her eyes.
In the darkness, she couldn't see Joanna's expression, but she could feel a kind of chilling coldness. "She owes you..." Leia didn't understand, but she vaguely sensed that her master's emotions were not quite right. She leaned forward and asked softly, "Master?" The sound of the girl's soft and puzzled voice stunned Joanna.
She looked at the innocent and clever face that had cclose to her. After a few seconds, her expression returned to her usual charm and laziness.
Joanna restarted the car, "I said you don't need to feel sorry for your Madam Selena. It's your young master who's to blame. At most, you can just consider it as an oversight.” Leia saw that her master was fine and sat back in her seat, holding her chin in her hands, looking worried, but she didn't forget to speak up for her grandfather, "Master, you're wrong. Young Master would rather hurt himself than harm Madam Selena..." Joanna snorted and asked about something else, "Did anyone from Cassius say anything strange to you?" Leia thought carefully and shook her head, "No, they seemed to have caughton a whim and then just threwaside, and then you came.” Joanna's tone seemed to relax, "Madam Selena is in the hospital now. If that man wants to punish you, tell me." Leia sensed that Joanna didn't seem to want to talk about Selena. She couldn't help but speak out her concerns about Selena and her master, "Master, do you not like Madam Selena?" As soon as the words were spoken, Leia immediately denied them.
She remembered that when the young master asked her to take care of Madam Selena, Joanna seemed very happy and even told her to protect Madam Selena. There was no reason for her to stop liking her now, especially since Madam Selena was such a good and beautiful person...
Joanna glanced at her disciple's expression through the rearview mirror, but didn't answer the question. She drove directly to the villa with Leia.
Before getting out of the car, Joanna said to Leia, "If you encounter danger again next time, cback to my side." Her disciple was not raised to be a bodyguard to protect Selena from the executioner who had nearly killed Joanna.
Leia thought Joanna was dissatisfied with her skills and not qualified to protect Selena. Her eyes turned red in disappointment as she said, "I understand, Master..." Joanna patted her furry head and said, "Go inside." "Goodbye, Master." Leia waved her hand and turned to skip back to the villa.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBehind her, Joanna watched her leave and lit another cigarette, taking a deep drag. "Callum, you fucking..." If she had known that the other person was not Callum's real daughter and still had that identity, she would never have sent Leia to her.
Selena was sent back to the villa in a coma, which made the butler and a group of servants relieved. After Lady Lauren learned about Leia's disappearance, everyone becextremely depressed.
Therefore, when they suddenly saw she running back from outside, everyone in the villa immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
They rushed over to check if she was injured and notified others in the villa.
"Butler, | am back!" While Leia was being surrounded and checked by a group of maids, Lady Lauren walked out of Selena's room.
Leia ran over with teary eyes, "Madam Laurence, how is Madam Selena?" Leia was raised by Lady Lauren, almost like her own daughter. Seeing she cback unharmed, Lady Lauren was immediately relieved. "Selena is fine, she will wake up tomorrow." Leia blinked and lowered her head.
Lady Lauren knew she was blaming herself...
