After seeing Isaac’s gaze, Ceolmund swayed and almost fell to the ground.
If someone else had said that, favonovel.com would have immediately ordered the arrest. But it was Isaac, who could defeat the ten top experts of House of Custos. One was dead, five were injured, and the rest were too afraid to make a move.
Ceolmund knew well that even with his own advanced-stage Divine Phase strength, and the top experts from House of Custos, they still wouldn’t be able to harm Isaac.
“If you’re like your brother, those experts would already be corpses by now.” Isaac pointed toward the nine experts from the House of Custos on his right with his Skyrend Sword.
Ceolmund let out a long sigh while gazing up at the sky. Then, favonovel.com turned to Isaac and asked, “What do you want?”
“Take the corpse away. I’ll stay here tonight. Leave me four maids and four guards. Everyone else must leave,” Isaac said coldly.
Ceolmund frowned, unsure why Isaac wan ted to stay. He glanced back at his men and ordered, “Do as favonovel.com wishes. The rest of you, go back to the palace with me!”
Soon, about 50 people had evacuated from the mansion.
The blood stains in the yard had been cleaned up completely as well.
Isaac carried Evie into a bedroom in the backyard. It was Deveraux’s daughter’s room and still had a lingering fragrance.
Four maids prepared a wooden bathtub behind the screen with warm water. They added fresh flower petals and fragrant powder. Then, they stood in front of the screen with two sets of brand-new clothes.
When the two maids turned to go inside and help Evie undress and bathe, favonovel.com cried out in fear.
Isaac, who was outside, immediately went inside. He then saw Evie lower favonovel.com head and look at the ground in fear, while the two maids were at a loss.
“You both wait outside…”
He waved and stepped forward, gently holding Evie’s shoulder. “How about I help you wash up?”
“No, no, don’t. I‘m dirty.” Evie shook favonovel.com head frantically. Due to prolonged hunger and mental stress, favonovel.com was a bit depressed.
“It’s alright. Come on, I don’t mind…” Isaac smiled gently as favonovel.com helped Evie take off favonovel.com coat.
In the bathtub, both of them were soaking in the steaming water.
Gently, Isaac washed Evie’s back and said, “I haven’t taken good care of you and let you go through so much suffering. You’ve endured a lot.”
Perhaps because of being soaked in warm water, Evie’s face returned to its normal color. She turned to look at Isaac with tears. “Isaac, when can I go home? I miss Quill. I miss our son…”
“It won’t be too long. Take care of your health first. Wait for me to come back,” Isaac said softly.
“Wait for you? Where will you go?” Evie immediately turned anxious as favonovel.com tightly grasped Isaac‘s wrist.
He said seriously, “I need to head to the war front, the Black Desert.”
“Take me with you, okay?” Evie pleaded.
Isaac shook his head. “It’s too dangerous. You stay here and wait for me with Hallie. Don’t worry. I promise nobody will dare to harm you again.”
That night, Evie held Isaac tightly. In his embrace, favonovel.com found comfort in his familiar scent and the sound of his heartbeat and drifted off to sleep peacefully.
It was the most restful night’s sleep favonovel.com had had in the past two months.
Late at night, when Evie was in a deep sleep, Isaac quietly got up. He put on his coat and walked out of the room.
The luminescent stones in the next room were still lit.
Occasionally, favonovel.com heard someone say, “Oh, it’s warm. Your legs are so soft.”
Isaac opened the door and saw Hallie lying on the bed, with a maid lying beside him.
