Chapter 890

After getting his hands on the information, Levant took some of his people and made a beeline toward
Darkmoon Manor.

The Hidden Masters had been staying at Darkmoon Manor for some time. The moment they saw Levant
and his group of men, a fierce fight ensued. During their vicious fight, Jeremy and Darius escaped
through a secret passage.




However, John, Jensen, and Damien were caught by Levant.

Levant stared at John. “Where is Evan?”

John was stumped. Why is he asking where Evan is? Does that mean that Mr. Seet is not in his hands?
That’s great news!



Jensen and Damien were equally surprised. But more than that, they were glad to hear that Evan had
eluded Levant.



“Hey, I’m asking you a question here. Where is Evan?”

John cleared his throat. “Mr. Seet already knows you’re coming so he left earlier. As for where he’s
headed, we have no idea.”





Levant was skeptical of John’s words. “You’re his right-hand man and yet you have no idea where he is?”

“I really don’t.” John shrugged and replied honestly.



Levant’s gaze turned sharp. “Take them back. I don’t think Evan Seet would leave them to die.”

“Yes, Mr. Levant.”

John was glad to know that Evan had not fallen into Levant’s hands. Even though he was being taken
away by the man, he felt no fear. On the contrary, he was actually relieved.

Mr. Seet must have predicted something like this would happen, that’s why he left beforehand. But why
didn’t he let us in on this too? We could have escaped together.

Even though he was grumbling internally, his lips had unknowingly curled into a thin smile.

At the Wicked Palace.

Stephen sat before the cabinet with his back against the mirror. It seemed as though he was talking to
himself. However, if one looked closer, someone was actually replying him.

The person lowered his voice. “I heard the guards talking about you. That’s why I’m here. I’m bringing
you along if I’m leaving.”



“Don’t act rashly! I am surrounded by Levant and Murphy’s spies. I would have left earlier if it was a
viable option. It’s going to be hard for you to leave right now. You’re going to be in danger if you were
discovered!”



“I’ll just go with the flow. I’m not afraid of death. Heck, I’ve been through it all.”

“You think this is about you?” Stephen sighed. “You’re fearless, alright. But what if something happens to
you? How would Nicole be able to deal with that? What about the kids?”

Nicole?

If I’m really dead, Nicole marrying Levant wouldn’t be so bad I guess. At the very least, she would be
able to live a happy life.

He smiled bitterly. Now that he thought about it, the hatred that Nicole harbored against him actually
served a good purpose.

Since she hates me so much, I guess she wouldn’t be sad even when I’m dead.

As if he recalled something, Stephen uttered, “I think you could ask for someone’s help if you would like
to leave this place.”

Evan, who was hiding in the cabinet, was puzzled. “You’re saying that there’s someone in the Wicked
Palace who’s willing to help? Is it one of your subordinates? Or did this person owe you some favor?”

“The person’s not my subordinate, nor did the person owe me anything! Levant’s afraid that I might flee,
so every single person that’s guarding me is fiercely loyal to him. I wouldn’t stand a chance in bribing
those people.”

“Then, who is it?”

“You’ll get to know soon.”

Stephen had an apprehensive look on his face. He was contemplating whether there would be a hassle
in the future if he asked for this person’s help. But it’s not like I have any other choice now.



It was a cold night.

The moon was shining brightly, illuminating the courtyard with its glow. Stephen took in a deep breath as
he regarded the sight before him. Ever since he was trapped in the Wicked Palace, even the gentle
moonlight seemed murderous to him.

His eyes were focused on the entrance. Will the person come tonight?

After all, she would always sneak in here whenever it’s full moon.

After half an hour, the familiar silhouette made its appearance and snuck inside.

Stephen’s face lit up with a smile at the sight of her.

She approached him, patted her chest, and breathed out deeply as she looked at Stephen with an
apprehensive look.

“That was dangerous. If it wasn’t for my lightning-quick reaction, I would have been caught just now!”

“You’re afraid of getting caught?”
