Crap!Cody stood frozen in the room, his forehead beading with sweat as his chest thudded in terror.Was Ambrose not drinking in the main hall? Why had he returned all of a sudden? If he were to catch Cody, there was no way he would see the light of day again.Cody was nothing but helpless. He scanned the room in search of Ambrose's belongings for traces of hair after cutting off the baby's lanugo hair, only for Ambrose to return in time.Creak!Just as Cody was terrified, the room was pushed open as Ambrose strode in with Heather behind him.Ambrose's gaze was sharp as a bolt of lightning as it landed on Cody instantly. He stopped short. "Cody Lange? Is that you?"Ambrose knew Cody as Veron's personal bodyguard back when she had followed Ambrose around persistently; thus, he recognized Cody immediately.Seeing as there was no way out, Cody forced a pained smile as he greeted Ambrose. "Sect… Sect Master Ambrose."As he spoke, he could barely hold himself upright from his nervo

At the thought, Ambrose looked at Cody. "Fine, what do you want from me?"Whew!Cody heaved a deep breath and spoke in a highly cautious tone."There's an ancient belief that equates cutting one's hair to cutting ties with someone. Why don't you give me a few strands of your hair, Sect Master Ambrose, and I'll tell my High Lady that you've cut her off for good?"My High Lady will see your hair and give up for sure. She'll never give you any more trouble after this."As he spoke, Cody had on a serious expression as his chest thudded hopefully.Indeed, his ultimate goal was to obtain Ambrose's hair and nothing else. Knowing Veron's temper, she would surely kick him out if he did not finish what he was ordered to do.At the suggestion, Ambrose hesitated briefly. Following that, he took out a small dagger and sliced off a lock of his hair before handing it to Cody."Well… That seems like a good idea. Here, take the hair and get out of here."All Ambrose wanted then was to have not

After that, Morticia had gone overseas to gather pirates of names big and small, finally forming the Sea Dragon Palace.Not long after that, Morticia gave birth.Based on blood relation, the baby was a Fiend descendant but was also related to Darryl. In other words, the baby was Ambrose's brother from another mother.With a relationship like this, it was only logical that their genetics were the same as well."That b*tch.."Finally, Veron returned to her senses. She snatched the papers over, looking at them briefly before stepping out of the hospital.Veron was filled with resentment then.Veron had liked Ambrose for a long time, and it could be said that she viewed him as his entire world. However, he saw her affection towards him as nothing, and what was more infuriating was that Heather.What a b*tch! What a sl*t for seducing Ambrose and even having a child with him."High Lady…"Seeing as her expression looked off, Cody scrambled to follow her out.As he reached the hosp

What a joke!Just then, Ambrose let out a laugh of exasperation as he flared up in a fury and asked Veron coldly, "Why should I do that? I'll say it again. We're talking about serious business. There's no time for your nonsense."Veron was truly crazy, making up things as she pleased.The angrier Ambrose seemed, the more convinced Veron was that he hid something. She called out, "If you don't do it, you're guilty. You're afraid of the baby's true identity being revealed and that it'll affect your reputation as well as that of the Elysium Gate. More importantly, you just want to protect this hussy, right?"As he spoke, Veron did not forget to glower at Heather viciously."Shut up!"Ambrose was nothing but furious, roaring the words as he finally nodded."Fine, I'll do the damn blood match, but hear me loud and clear. If the baby isn't related to me, you'll leave me alone forever."Ambrose was truly enraged then.Veron was too much—hitting Heather and going as far as to say that

"No…"Seeing the bloodshot gaze on Ambrose thoroughly scared the servant, and she shook her head in terror. "I didn't. It's just normal water."Ambrose still wanted to ask further, but Veron stopped him.Veron roared out loud, unable to hide the disdain in her gaze. "Ambrose Darby! The deed's been done, and the results are out. You can't deny this anymore. You said that the blood match wouldn't add up? Well, take a look at this."Veron took out the hospital papers and threw them at Ambrose as she said the final word.Genetic testing?Ambrose frowned, catching the papers in one move and taking a good look at them.At the same time, everyone else, including Chester, Dax, and the rest, inched closer. All that could be seen at the bottom were the results clear as day.'Genetic Match, 99%'"If you said something was wrong with the blood match, would hospital results lie?"What?A thought seemed to come to Ambrose as he roared at Veron, "Did Cody Lange ask for my hair that night t
