Impressed by Jesse’s loyalty, Helena teased, “How many Scarlet Cardinals can you gather on such short notice?”
Jesse fell silent, realizing the impracticality of the suggestion. The 12–mile perimeter in the desert was too vast. It would require over 20 Scarlet Cardinals for complete coverage, and there were not even that many in all of Guneria.
Helene continued confidently, “Don’t bother. No one who could overpower me exists yet, so let’s not make a big deal of this. Neither Reagan nor that facility would have such a person.”
She had completely dismissed Felix as just an ordinary person, thanks to his masterful use of the Nightshade Discipline technique borrowed from Darren. With Felix’s skill level, using it perfectly masked his martial artist aura, making him seem utterly unremarkable.
As they approached the facility, Felix felt elated when he noticed all traces of the powerful guards had vanished. Elliott was telling the truth–the Westerio Order really would not dare come near, which meant the plan was close to succeeding.
Inside the facility, Elliott stood in the courtyard surrounded by armed personnel and several
shadowstalkers.
“Mr. Zeller,” the shadowstalkers greeted with a bow, though Elliott’s expression darkened.
He said sternly, “The woman with you isn’t on the guest list. The radar picked her up the moment she entered the perimeter. I’ll need an explanation.”
Felix played the role of an entitled heir perfectly. ‘Who the hell do you think you are? This is my girlfriend–why can’t she be here? Do you know who my father is? How dare you! You guys, take him down!”
The shadowstalkers exchanged awkward glances under their masks. They knew Felix was putting on a show, but his over–the–top performance was bordering on ridiculous, especially considering whose territory they were standing in.
“Darling, thank you,” Helena said sweetly, leaning into Felix as if she were genuinely frightened.
One of the shadowstalkers stepped forward, addressing Elliott. “Dr. Phillips, please make an exception this time.”
Elliott hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Fine, but she’ll need to be checked thoroughly first. After that, she’ll be escorted to join you.”
Felix continued grumbling, throwing out a few more choice insults for good measure before Helena gently tugged his arm. “It’s okay, darling They won’t hurt me. You go ahead, and I’ll catch up with you soon.”

“They better not! Anyone who dares upset you will answer to me,” Felix threatened before leaving.
Once inside one of the buildings, Elliott finally let out a sigh, shaking his head in disbelief.” Dr. Zeller, you’ve missed your calling–you should’ve been an actor. For a second there, even I believed you were just some brainless trust–fund kid.”
Felix smiled wryly. “I didn’t have a choice. This woman is valuable to me, and I went through hell to find her. If it weren’t for the Westerio Order’s elite guards protecting her 24/7, I wouldn’t have needed to trouble you.”
Elliott patted Felix’s shoulder, feigning anger. “What are you talking about? That’s what friends are for.”
Felix nodded seriously. “I’ll remember this favor. If you ever need anything, just say the word, and I’ll be there immediately.”
Elliott smiled, satisfied with this promise. Just then, a staff member interrupted, “Dr. Phillips, Mr. Robins is on the phone–it’s urgent.”
“Alright,” Elliott said, gesturing for Felix to wait while he stepped aside to answer the wall phone. After listening for just a few moments, his expression completely changed.

Upon entering a room, Felix met Reagan. Out of respect and with Elliott present, be remained composed. “Since the Westerio Order cannot intervene, I don’t want to delay it further. Once Helena arrives, I’ll subda her and take her away mediately.”
Nether Elliott or Reagan objected to this, leaving Felix to decide. “Reagan, is there any issue on your end?”
Bagan shook his head “Don’t worry. While the Westerio Order is fearsome, I can only stay withum the boundaries of my nation. They wouldn’t dare act recklessly as long as I don’t leave.”
As for Elliott, there was even less concern. Overseeing the secret project had already placed him on his nation’s protection list. If the Wester Order dared assassinate Elliott or Tominy Sumbens, it would mean they had thrown all caution to the wind. Fortunately, they hadn’t reached that level yet
Ten minutes later, Helena entered the room. Shecas curious to see Felix. “Darling, where’s your father?
Felix suddenly waved his hand. The attack caught Helena off guard, but she wasn’t a pushover
