Chapter 924

Despite his sharp words, Levant had decided to give in to Nicole’s request. After all, she did not try to
protect Evan, and nor did she interfere with his plans to dispose of Evan.

The four kids held on to Evan’s hands tightly. “Daddy! We want to stay here with you!”

“Daddy, we’re not leaving!”

“Go! Just leave and don’t come back!” Evan bellowed.

Just seconds later, Davin and Sheila walked into the tunnel, startled by the scene before them.

They had been looking for Nicole and the kids when they stumbled upon the tension-filled tunnel, and
they could tell from Levant’s stance that Evan was in big trouble for impersonating him.

“What’s going on?” Davin asked.

Instead of answering, Evan told him to take the kids and the Hidden Masters away from the tunnel.

“Huh? What about you, Evan?”

“He’s staying here with me!” Levant answered with an evil grin.

Davin fell silent as he recalled the sheer number of guards both outside and inside the tunnel, and he
figured that getting as many people out of there as possible was not a bad plan at all.

He nodded and tried to coax the others to leave, but John was the only person who was willing to do
so. The Hidden Masters refused to leave Evan’s side no matter what Davin said.

They were determined to stand by Evan’s side and fight to the death.



The two little boys understood Davin and John’s intentions, and they decided to stay in Wicked Palace
to keep an eye on the situation.

The two little girls, however, have already broken down in tears. Nicole and Sheila practically carried
them away from the scene, leaving Evan and the Hidden Masters trapped in the abandoned yard.

Jeremy glanced at the run-down courtyard and asked, “Mr. Seet, why didn’t you let us take him on? We
might be able to escape if we fight and won it.”

Evan sighed. “It would deadly and even if we could break through, there will be a lot of casualties. I
don’t want any unnecessary injuries.”

The last thing I want to see is the four of you or John falling in battle because of me…

“We’re going to be stuck here forever if you don’t do anything, Mr. Seet! I’m sure you won’t want that to
happen, right?” Jensen asked.

Evan fell silent.

Of course I don’t, but I didn’t expect Levant to escape from the Darkmoon Manor so quickly.

Darius and Damien glanced at Jensen and Jeremy disapprovingly as a signal for him to keep their
mouths shut.

Sighing heavily, Jeremy began to pace around the courtyard aimlessly.

“By right, the state-of-the-art security system at Darkmoon Manor with the triple locking device should
trap him down. In that case, how did he escape?” Damien asked, confused. “How in the world did
Levant get out of there?”

“Yeah, someone must have saved him. There’s no way he could have broken out by himself!”



“Who would have saved him?”

The five men began to speculate on the matter.

Meanwhile…

John and Davin stared at each other in anguish.

“How are we going to get Mr. Seet and those four idiots out of there?” John muttered to himself.

Davin huffed. “I wish I knew! It’ll be impossible for us to break in and save them, so we need to come
up with a better plan.”

“What do you have in mind?” John asked hopefully.

Davin glared at him. “I can’t think of anything, dummy!”

They fell silent after that.

Noticing how troubled the two men looked, Sheila wondered if she should offer her two cents.

There’s no other choice…she’s the only person who can save Evan…

“John, why don’t we convince Ms. Nicole to help us out?”

John froze, unsure of whether they would succeed.

I don’t think Mr. Seet’s been successful in his attempt to court her…

In fact, I think she hates him for everything he’d done.

She still can’t let go of the past.



“I think we need to tell her about the truth before roping her in.”
