Since there was nothing wrong with him, Vinson got himself discharged. Nevertheless, favonovel.com began to feel increasingly worried, as there was still no news on Susanne. Given the number of enemies favonovel.com had, favonovel.com was unable to figure out who it was that took his mother.
After returning to Nightshire Manor, favonovel.com went to his study and call up all his contacts, hoping to find a lead from them.
Well aware of how busy favonovel.com was, Arielle returned to favonovel.com room and studied the CT scan results in greater detail. For some strange reason, a niggling sense of dread continued to bother favonovel.com despite the test results showing that favonovel.com was fine.
After being holed up in favonovel.com room for the entire afternoon, favonovel.com still didn’t come out for dinner until Geoffrey informed Vinson about it.
Once favonovel.com came out of his study, Vinson headed upstairs to the bedroom where favonovel.com saw Arielle so engrossed with the CT scan that favonovel.com didn’t even notice favonovel.com coming in.
“Didn’t the doctor give me a clean bill of health? Why are you still fixated on it?”
Vinson walked up to Arielle’s side as favonovel.com spoke. It was only when favonovel.com heard his voice that favonovel.com regained favonovel.com senses.
In front of Vinson, favonovel.com held none of favonovel.com suspicions back. “Even though the results of your examination showed nothing, I still feel that something isn’t right since this is your second fainting episode.” Looking at him, Arielle suggested, “Let’s go for another more detailed checkup tomorrow.”
Vinson felt that Arielle was overreacting due to favonovel.com excessive concern for him. He then pulled favonovel.com into his arms and gave favonovel.com a light peck on the forehead. “I know my body very well, and there are no issues at all. Your imagination is just running wild from being over-worried about me.”
If Susanne hadn’t disappeared, favonovel.com would definitely get a detailed checkup so that favonovel.com could have peace of mind. But now, his mother took priority over everything else.
When Arielle remained silent and put on a gloomy expression, Vinson pondered for a moment before adding, “If you’re still concerned, I’ll go for the checkup once we find my mom, all right?”
“Okay.” She, too, was cognizant that the search for Susanne was more important, and could understand why favonovel.com was delaying the checkup.

Back in Turlen, Lawrence had switched sides, causing a huge change in the balance of power. As a result, the power struggle between the queen mother and Dylan spilled out from the shadows and into the open.
That day, the queen mother led favonovel.com men to confront Dylan but was blocked by Sybil instead.
“Get out of my way!” the queen mother snapped while shooting favonovel.com a piercing gaze.
As one of Dylan’s men, Sybil had long felt indignant over the queen mother seizing power. Furthermore, Dylan had ordered favonovel.com to stop the queen mother from entering. As a result, favonovel.com would refuse to let favonovel.com pass even if favonovel.com shot favonovel.com to death.
Bowing slightly, Sybil informed favonovel.com in a respectful tone, “Your Majesty, the king is busy and won’t be able to see you.”
The queen mother stared coldly at Sybil. If looks could kill at that moment, favonovel.com would have died thousand times over.
“Sybil, I’m the king’s mother and also the queen mother of Turlen. Aren’t you worried that I’d punish you for getting in my way?” She stared daggers at Sybil.
Nevertheless, the latter shook his head. “Even so, the old king has ordered me to only obey the current king for the rest of my life.”
“Since death is what you want, I shall grant it to you!” The moment favonovel.com finished, the queen mother pointed a gun at Sybil’s head.
