Chaplain!

Oliver Walker took a cigarette out of his pocket, trying to light it, but the lighter wouldn’t ignite.

And Emilia shifted slightly to block the cold wind.

“Snap…”

The flame was lit!

Yet, Oliver Walker forgot to light his cigarette, even such a faint gesture revealed how genuine his wife’s care and affection were.

But it made him incredibly ashamed!

Because he didn’t know whether his feelings for Jessica Wright were more familial or romantic.

The one thing he could guarantee was that this affection was truly pure, never transgressing the conventional social norms.

In the blizzard, two silhouettes stood still, as if they were snowmen!

On the lighthouse’s top, less than a hundred meters away in a straight line, stood two people!

Through the blizzard, one could see clearly!

“Uncle De, you’ve lost!”

On closer inspection, it was Jessica Wright, “I told you, he’s not heartless or ungrateful; he was bound to come!”

But in that relieved, peerlessly beautiful smile, there was a hint of desolate sadness!

The woman standing beside her senior brother, would never be her again!

Never!

At this moment, her heart ached!

Yet, seeing that man happy, she felt as if she too found satisfaction!

“Let it be!”

Lucas sighed, “Miss, I will keep our agreement. Take care in the pyramid.”

In fact, neither of them had taken that chartered flight.

Or to be more precise, everyone on the flight crew was from the company, which meant they were people sent by Wesley Wright to watch over them.

Through Lucas’s arrangements, after the flight took off, the signal went dead, the instruments malfunctioned, and eventually, it crashed into the sea amidst the terrible weather…

“Thank you!”

Jessica Wright’s eyes were filled with gratitude. She knew convincing Lucas had not been easy.

That’s why she had made a bet, promising that if she lost, she would never set foot in the pyramid again and would return to the Eastern Alliance to train properly.

As for the deceased, she wasn’t troubled at all!

Because she hated being watched, loathed the feeling of being restrained!

She was a person!

She deserved freedom!

And not to live her whole life in a cage!

“Take care!”

Lucas bowed his head and then turned and left the lighthouse!

Causing such a commotion, there would naturally have to be an explanation to the company.

And according to the previous story, it would be that the missus had tragically passed away, and he was the only lucky survivor…

This was the missus’s final will!

Choosing to stay, hidden in the shadows, to help her beloved through his last ordeal!

The pyramid was definitely not going to be peaceful anytime soon!

It would only be more turbulent than these surging tides!

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Li family of Cosmic Nation, and the Carter Company of the ancient martial arts world—with such a lineup, any country on Earth would find it overwhelmingly difficult.

Moreover, Oliver Walker was but a paper tiger, nowhere near as powerful as he appeared on the surface!

This was also why Jessica Wright was willing to stay behind.

Perhaps she and Oliver Walker had publicly cut ties, but in reality, they both lived deep within each other’s hearts.

So, without disturbing each other, things were actually quite good.

Even if someday she truly died, she would take those secrets to the grave, and that man wouldn’t have too much to regret.

“Happiness… is… quite… nice…”

Jessica Wright’s voice trembled as she gazed with a blessing in her eyes at Oliver Walker and Emilia huddled together in the blizzard, then sat down with a heavy heart and burst into tears.

No one would ever understand her fragility, and she didn’t want anyone to discover her weakness!

She was the ice-cold fairy from heaven!

Her hands stained with the blood of countless individuals, the flower of Higashimoto!

In this world, there will always be mythical couples made for each other, and there will always be men and women so devoted to the ones they love, willing to give up everything!
