CHAPTER 37: We track Astrid location!
"No! It's mine," Ewan emerged from the shadows, an icy resolve in his voice and casualness.Watching Ewan's face, "He's Mr. Huxley's son, isn't he? A low murmur passed between the patrol officers. A silent nod from one to the other. "It's okay, sir! It's just a casual check!" another officer answered as they silently stepped back to return."Fuck!' A disappointment smirk escaped on Ewan's lips, "Stop! I don't want to get out of it because of the Huxley name... I get charged for speeding, right?" He innovatively raised an eyebrow, "Okay, I'll pay the charge amount," he said sincerely, sliding a hand into his pocket and pulling out his payment card, which was designed with an H symbol in the center and was embedded with gold and platinum designs.Both exchanged hesitant, nervous glances and made a silent eye signal. "No need, sir!" the officer refused, a tremor in his voice."Officer, Rules are rules. Ewan's hand remained steady. "Just go ahead!" he signaled, indicating that he wanted
CHAPTER 36: Ryan's confession.
The matte black bullet car gleamed under the streetlights and sped forward. Ewan gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles turning pink. The speedometer needle hit its maximum. The engine's furious roar was familiar, matching the pounding in his chest. The roadside auto alarm beeped, sensing the high speed and displaying his car number and model on the screen, but Ewan seemed not to bother about anything, his icy stare fixed on the road, and his mind just focused on Ryan's apartment.Within a minute, a traffic police officer followed him with a blue-lighted patrol car with a sharp wailing siren, which appeared in his rearview mirror. A cruel smirk twisted his lips. "Who cares?" he murmured to himself, pressing the accelerator again and leaving the police behind in a blur.Then the car screeched to a halt outside Ryan's apartment, Dominion 1, Area 2, Ryan's. He flung the door forcefully, leaving it ajar. Checking the gun tucked into his waistband, and sprinted for the lift. He
CHAPTER 35: He's manipulating you!
On the flip side, Ewan's pain and vows of revenge seemed to have vanished, replaced by an energetic conversation. "Cheers..." The glasses clinked in the quiet hall, where Alex and Wyatt were sitting opposite on the sofa, sharing their three-year lives and routine and chatting about their struggles and laughing together."The last time I saw you was when you got inside the wiping technology building," Alex recalled, his voice a low rumble."Yeah... That time it was a tough situation to handle the pain..." Wyatt admitted, his smile thin and faint. Noticing Alex's downcast face, he immediately increased the high-pitched tone."Luckily, you don't have this kind of situation anymore. And you ended up in high-class dominion, didn't you?" He raised his brows teasingly, "Lucky you! I am just curious; how did you actually end up in Dominion 2? Wyatt leaned forward, truly excited over hearing the truth.Alex took a long sip of his liquor, his face immediately dejected. "It's not luck.... Not rea
CHAPTER 34: Finally, truth came out!
Ewan went back to work on his dream, altered the screen into a grid type, with each of the ten profiles appearing in its own pane and aligned perfectly.Clicked the first profile, watching the profile photo, his finger entered the skip choice.Then he dragged the second profile, "It's not." he pressed the skip button.Again, third... fourth.... "Big no!' he murmured, and none of them matched his memory of Astrid's identity, and a small fury hinted at his gleam.However, after so many skips, finally, the skip button paused on the particular 7th slide, an image of Astrid with a bright green eye, a pretty smile on her face. Seeing Astrid's profile, a relaxed breath escaped from his lips, and a hopeful smile remained. "Finally, I found my girl."On the left side of the screen, the screen displayed"Personal details of the person.Name: Astrid Turner, Age:20 Father's name: Danniel Turner, Mother's name: Anna Hazare Turner.Location: 123, Wetland. LVThe next line pulsed in bold red: [er
CHAPTER 33: Wait and Watch!
"Stop!" A vague smile on Miley's face, she looked down in uncertainty, scratching the rock with a small, sharp stone. "But Edward didn't reply to me!" An eagerness died in her tone."Oh, how dare Edward reject a beautiful girl like you?" Astrid said, dramatically rolled eyes and sitting up, and gently pinching Miley's chubby cheeks. "Don't worry, he has a crush on you, but he's hiding it for a reason. We'll figure it out later," she encouraged, grinning like a Cheshire cat.Miley immediately wrapped her arms around Astrid warmly, showing ease in feeling sisterhood with her; a lame smile remained on her face. Behind her arms, Astrid's smile faded when thinking of Wyatt's embrace. I hope he's doing well. She thought, holding Miley tightly.From a distance, Edward noticed a quick, genuine bond between them, and a small, peaceful smile tugged on his lips. Holding a beautiful, dark red Chocolate Cosmos flower in one hand and his time-travel gadget in the other. He pressed a time travel gadg
CHAPTER 32: Do you still love him?
"Aldric! Dad!!!" The broken whisper tore from Astrid's throat. She ripped the machine wires connected to her body and hands, and hardly pushed herself to sit. "Where are you, Dad!"Miley rushed to her side, placing a lamp on the nearby table. "Hey! Don't stress yourself; you need a rest," she assured as she helped Astrid lie down on the bed."Relax... Astrid, I'll tell everything in the morning... Don't panic!" Miley held Astrid's pale hand to comfort her and then grabbed the sleeping tablet from the nearest cupboard drawer."Open your mouth," she instructed, holding the tablet to Astrid's lips, her gaze demanding compliance."What's going on? Who is she? Astrid wondered as she wrapped bedsheets tightly. Miley then sat beside her, leaning against the bed.Astrid squeezed shut, a low whimper escaping her as a loud crack of thunder shook the wooden hut. She couldn't watch, even if there was anything to see in the inky darkness.The next morning, the heavy rain, the thunder, and the darkn
