"You should eat," Tatsumi said, handing the spoon and fork over to Speed. She was admitted to the hospital because of her broken ribs. Vincent's hard kick fractured her bones. "You haven't eaten anything since Yesterday," he added, preparing the food on her bedside table.

Speed remained silent, not paying attention to his words.

"Do you want me to feed you?" Tatsumi scratched the back of his head as he continued interacting with Speed.

She appeared to be in shock, Vincent's anger weighing heavily on her heart. She didn't want to be hated by their Leader. "Sigh. What am I going to do with you? Your Boss already abandoned you here." Tatsumi murmured to himself, looking at Speed helplessly.

Speed lay down, turning to the other side, her back now facing Tatsumi. She chose to ignore him. She wanted to be alone.

"Don't be too harsh on yourself. Mia will never blame you. It was an accident. Even if you make yourself starve, it won't help Mia at all." After saying that, Tatsumi stepped out of her ward.

This time he wanted to check on Jane. He headed to the ICU. Hanabi and Jane stood outside, still watching Mia.

"How is she?" Tatsumi asked Hanabi in a low voice.

"Sis, didn't want to leave Mia here. She didn't sleep," Hanabi responded.

"Convince her to take a rest. She might collapse and get sick," Tatsumi urged Hanabi, worrying about Jane.

"I'll try."

They were still talking when Hanabi's phone rang. It was a phone call from Cherry.

"Keep an eye on Sis Jane. I'll just answer this." "Go ahead," Tatsumi simply replied. Novel Fire - novelfire.net

Hanabi just distanced herself from Tatsumi and Jane before answering the call.

"Hello, Cherry!"

"Hanabi! Is everything fine there? How's Sis Jane? I haven't heard anything from her. She was supposed to return yesterday. What happened?" Cherry's voice was filled with worry. "Nathan is also asking me about her whereabouts. She's not answering her phone."

Hanabi sighed deeply. "It's a long story." "Okay. I'm willing to listen. But for now, I have an update. Yesterday, Veronica talked to Dave. She is now willing to cooperate with the police. She revealed Monica's involvement in the creation of the deadly weapon and her fake identity as Helena Carlsen. Dave is going to arrest her today. He is just waiting for the release of the arrest warrant."

Hanabi's face brightened up when she heard that. "Good news! The evil bitch is going down!"

"Yeah! I already gave the antidote to Veronica as her reward for her cooperation." Cherry giggled. "Now, we have to wait for Dave to put Helena in prison."

"Yeah. That's true. Now, it's my turn to tell you what happened here in Country J."

Hanabi told Cherry about Vincent's proposal and his big revelation about Mia's existence. Cherry was dumbfounded after hearing the whole story. She couldn't believe it.

"Jane's child is alive… and it's Mia?! And What?! Mia got into an accident and is in critical condition?!" Cherry exclaimed, concerned about Jane.

"How will I tell Nathan about this? That man is also preoccupied right now. His father has been kidnapped and his whereabouts are still unknown. Sigh. This is one hell of a crazy week!" Cherry didn't know what she would do.

"Don't tell Nathan yet. Allow him to focus on the search. Besides, it's best if he will hear this story from Sis Jane." Hanabi understood that Nathan and Jane should resolve this issue together. For now, they needed space. Jane had to focus on Mia while Nathan should focus on finding Old Man Xu.

[ At Country M… ]

Phoenix fetched Vincent at the airport. He was surprised when he didn't see Speed with their Boss.

"Where is Monica?" Vincent's voice was cold and firm.

"She is in your Villa…" Phoenix responded, leading him to the car.

"Let's head there first," he commanded.

Phoenix drove the car, going to Vincent's Villa. It did not take long before they reached their destination.

Exuding a cold aura, Vincent entered the house. Monica had just finished her breakfast when she spotted Vincent at the entrance door.

"Babe! You are finally back!" Monica dashed in his direction, eager to hug and kiss him. However, before she could wrap her arms around Vincent's body, he extended his hands, holding her shoulders thus stopping her from hugging him.

"Hey, Babe? What's wrong?" Monica gazed at him with confusion. She didn't know why Vincent was acting so cold toward her.

"Are you still mad at me for what I did to your useless father?" Monica questioned him, eyebrows twitching.

Vincent tightened his grip on her shoulder and suddenly pushed her to the wall with force. Monica gasped in surprise when her back hit the wall.

"Let go, Vincent! You are hurting me." Monica tried to struggle against his grasp.

"You killed Maximilian. You kidnapped my father. What will you do next? You are out of control now, Monica. I think it's time for us to go our separate ways. We're over." Vincent declared to Monica in his authoritative voice.

Monica couldn't believe what she had just heard. Her eyes widened in confusion and disbelief.

"Are you kidding me, Vincent?! Are you breaking up with me for real?!" She asked him, still in denial. She even laughed sarcastically as she gazed at him.

"Tell me you are just joking," She demanded.

But Vincent didn't budge in his spot. "Yes. I'm breaking up with you."

"Hahaha. Seriously, Vincent? Have you forgotten?! I am your ultimate accomplice. Have you gone crazy? Do you think I will just agree with you?" Monica scowled at him.

"You know what I'm capable of doing, Monica. If I said it's over… then it's over. I can no longer tolerate you. You broke the last strand of my patience with you… even my trust."

"Damn, You! Vincent! Don't tell me you are just using Maximilian and your father as your excuse! You just want to be with Phantomflake, am I right?! She's the reason you are breaking up with me?!"

"She has nothing to do with my decision." He replied in his stern cold voice. "You were the one who forced me to do this."

"Unbelievable, Vincent! Unbelievable! After what I've done for you, you are just going to discard me like this! You can't do that, Vincent! I'm not letting you go! Never! Kill me first!" Monica threatened him.
