Another person who had a sleepless night was Devin.

After sending Kira to the hospital, her condition stabilized quickly. He sat in her ward and finally took

out his phone again.

Devin didn’t even know what he was doing.

Yet, when he focused on his phone screen again, he realized it was showing someone’s social media

profile.

What has gotten into me?

Furious, he was about to exit the page but the top post on her account appeared in sight.

I finally get to eat my favorite sea bass today! It’s delicious! The post was accompanied by a photo of

cooked sea bass.

Sea bass? Her favorite dish is sea bass?

His brows furrowed together. Before he could put down his phone, he spotted a man’s reflection on the

glass plate that the sea bass was served on.

It was a man wearing glasses!

Crack!

His fists balled up.

“Devin…” Right then, Kira regained consciousness after her temperature receded.

Devin said nothing as he stared at the post. Before he realized it, his fingers glided over the screen

deftly.

Devin: What have you done? That smuggler has returned to Adonia to the Sheerwood family. Has my

order fallen on deaf ears?

Member A: Sorry, Major. We’re on it right now.

Member B: Got it, Major. On it now!

Member C: We shall reflect on our mistake and carry out your order ASAP!

The squad members promptly offered their apologies and promised to get to the bottom of this as soon

as possible.

Did I just send that post to the special forces platoon group chat?

The man stared at his phone and zoned out briefly.

“Devin?” Kira coughed and struggled to sit up since he had ignored her.

The moment she sat up, it felt like the whole world was spinning. She promptly collapsed back to the

bed. “Devin.”

Finally, Devin heard her voice.

“You’re awake? How do you feel? Are you feeling better?” he asked, pocketing his phone. As she

made to sit up, he went to her and helped her up.

It was normal for him to offer his help, for she was his cousin and a patient now.

However, Kira beamed happily at his action, her every pore oozing delight.

“I feel better now. I’m sorry, Devin.”

After sitting up, she hung her head low sadly at the thought of troubling Devin.

Devin got her a glass of water.

He only saw her as a cousin sister and nothing more. It was obvious by how he defended her in front of

his mother.

Thus, he didn’t notice her current expression.

Devin pulled a chair to her bed and sat down. “There’s no need to apologize. You didn’t do it on

purpose, anyway. I have a question, though. How did Shanae find out we’re after the smugglers and

left you in their hands?” he questioned.

At once, a trace of anxiety appeared on Kira’s face, but it disappeared swiftly.

It would be impossible to notice that if one didn’t pay enough attention to her.

“I-I have no idea. After forcing me to drug you back in Coldbridge, she then kicked me out,” Kira

revealed in a shaking voice.

“She kicked you out?”

“Yes. Back then, the White House was in chaos, and Alfred was crushed by your cousin. As a result, I

lost my backing. After what happened at Coldbridge, I left your place and got captured by her men,”

Kira explained, tears pooling in her eyes.

Devin’s expression turned grim.

Indeed, when he checked the surveillance cameras, it was her who had drugged him.

He was so furious back there that he swore to skin her alive!

However, his grandfather, Jonathan, then showed up. Utterly disappointed, he prepared to resign and

leave the Jadeson family. As a result, he ended up forgetting about the matter.

Now that he thought about it, it seemed that he didn’t see her in Jadeborough.

So it turns out Shanae kicked her out that very night?

Devin found it hard to believe that a pretty face in the Woods family was capable of doing that.

Who are the forces backing her up?

“Tell me. Where did they bring you after capturing you?”

“I don’t know, Devin. They kept me in a van after abducting me. One day, when they brought me out for

a breather, I heard them mention your name. I was so excited and revealed that you’re my cousin. I’m

really sorry about that, Devin.”

Finally, the reason Kira was brought to Devin was uncovered.

She belatedly realized that her cowardice action had ruined Devin’s plan and hung her head low as

tears streamed down her cheeks.

Silence ensued.
