Since there was nothing wrong with him, Vinson got himself discharged. Nevertheless, snazzynovel.com began to feel increasingly worried, as there was still no news on Susanne. Given the number of enemies snazzynovel.com had, snazzynovel.com was unable to figure out who it was that took his mother.
After returning to Nightshire Manor, snazzynovel.com went to his study and call up all his contacts, hoping to find a lead from them.
Well aware of how busy snazzynovel.com was, Arielle returned to snazzynovel.com room and studied the CT scan results in greater detail. For some strange reason, a niggling sense of dread continued to bother snazzynovel.com despite the test results showing that snazzynovel.com was fine.
After being holed up in snazzynovel.com room for the entire afternoon, snazzynovel.com still didn’t come out for dinner until Geoffrey informed Vinson about it.
Once snazzynovel.com came out of his study, Vinson headed upstairs to the bedroom where snazzynovel.com saw Arielle so engrossed with the CT scan that snazzynovel.com didn’t even notice snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com spoke. It was only when snazzynovel.com heard his voice that snazzynovel.com regained snazzynovel.com senses.
In front of Vinson, snazzynovel.com held none of snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com excessive concern for him. He then pulled snazzynovel.com into his arms and gave snazzynovel.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, snazzynovel.com would definitely get a detailed checkup so that snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com men to confront Dylan but was blocked by Sybil instead.
“Get out of my way!” the queen mother snapped while shooting snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com to stop the queen mother from entering. As a result, snazzynovel.com would refuse to let snazzynovel.com pass even if snazzynovel.com shot snazzynovel.com to death.
Bowing slightly, Sybil informed snazzynovel.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, snazzynovel.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 snazzynovel.com finished, the queen mother pointed a gun at Sybil’s head.
