Caleb’s brows shot up in surprise.

He hadn’t heard the conversation between me and Denise, so he didn’t know about the man in black. But he understood my intention.
“Are you suggesting we create a scenario where Denise can escape? Then we can follow her trail to uncover the true mastermind?”
“Exactly.” I nodded.

“The previous rooftop incident was a significant event. Whoever is pulling the strings behind Denise must have gotten wind of it. Despite her prolonged captivity, this person hasn’t made a move, indicating they’re averse to taking risks for her. In that case, our only option is to set a trap and lure them out into the open.”
Caleb swiftly grasped my strategy.
“I get it now. If we keep Denise locked up constantly, the person behind her will remain hidden. It’s a gamble, but using Denise as bait to lure out this individual seems like the best course of action. Right?”
“Exactly. That’s what I have in mind!” I exclaimed.
“If everything goes as planned, we’ll soon uncover the trickster!”
Caleb applauded and declared, “In that case, I’ll ensure Denise’s successful escape. You can count on it!”
Noting the confidence in his smile, I felt content and elated.
Unobtrusively, Caleb and I regained our unspoken understanding. We were no longer as preoccupied as during the recent fire incident when we scarcely had time for each other’s emotions.
After overcoming numerous challenges, our bond grew stronger.
“Ivy, did you see that? Caleb and I are in sync again!” I exclaimed with enthusiasm.
This time, Ivy remained silence.
In the past, she would have celebrated with even greater excitement than me. But now, she remained unresponsive, almost as if she had vanished altogether.
I was a little sad.
Since when had Ivy changed?
It seemed like it happened after I tried to cure Dylan and passed out.
Ivy once asked me if I preferred the witch power, but I failed to respond promptly. Ivy distanced herself from me. No matter how earnestly I attempted to clarify things to her, she remained aloof.
What could I possibly do?
Ivy used to exude vivacity and cheerfulness, but now she remained silent due to my negligence. The weight of sadness and guilt weighed heavily on me.
Before I could reach out to Ivy once more, Caleb swiftly summoned security and dealt with the situation. At that moment, I had to set aside my concerns about Ivy.
To ensure our plan unfolded smoothly, Caleb and I decided to trail Denise ourselves. We lingered outside the prison, awaiting Denise to behave in accordance with our strategy.
As anticipated, Denise discreetly slipped away in the early morning hours.
Her caution was evident; she dared not return to the house arranged by Caleb’s father to retrieve her belongings. Instead, she disappeared down a quiet path.
To avoid arousing her suspicions, Caleb instructed the guards to remain behind, and it was just the two of us who discreetly trailed her.
Denise soon crossed the boundary of the Thorn Edge Pack and entered the woods.
The mist veiled the forest, making it difficult for Caleb and me to discern Denise clearly.

Thankfully, a mysterious figure in black materialized before Denise.
A wave of anxiety washed over me.
Was this the individual who had compelled Denise to spirit my baby away, orchestrating everything from the shadows?
“Ah… Why are you here?”
Upon spotting the man in black, Denise didn’t express relief but rather trepidation.
Clearly, this wasn’t part of her plan.
The man in black remained silent, approaching Denise slowly. Fear overcame Denise, forcing her to step back until she tumbled to the ground.
“I’m sorry. I know I messed up. Please, just let me go!” Denise pleaded, tears streaming from her eyes.
I couldn’t look away from the man in black. I wasn’t certain if it was a trick of my imagination, but that figure felt oddly familiar, like I’d seen him somewhere before.
It felt peculiar. Could it be mere chance?
I couldn’t resist the urge to move a few steps closer, my curiosity driving me to discover his identity.
