“What? You’re at my door? How could you show up uninvited? Do the Fullers not know about basic

manners at all?”

The shrill voice from the other end made me take my ear away from the phone. I furrowed my brows,

feeling utterly displeased.

She sounded like a different person from my first impression of Yuna. Is she truly the university professor

that we’ve met?

“What’s going on?” Emery asked with concern upon noticing my scrunched-up face.

“Nothing…” I took a deep breath, trying to recollect myself.

I guess it is my fault for not informing them before I come. Perhaps she doesn’t want to let others see her

house in an unprepared state. That’s why she lost her temper.

A few seconds later, I put the phone back to my ear.

It seemed that Yuna had realized her misbehavior, as she had passed the phone to her husband, James.

“Mrs. Fuller, I’m so sorry. My wife’s having a difficult time at work recently, so she’s in a bad mood.

Please forgive her. You’re welcome to visit us anytime. But, what Yuna failed to mention was that we’re

currently at our house in Jazona, as our parents wanted to see Shaun. We’ll be here for quite a time. I’m

sorry for having you come so far for nothing…”

With that, I was left with no choice but to appoint for the next visit and end the call.

Fortunately, Audrey did not make a fuss out of it. She figured it was just a matter of time for her to meet

Shaun. At that moment, all she wanted was to get back to the air-conditioned car.

Just when we were about to leave, a loud thud came from inside the door.

What’s going on? I thought there isn’t anyone at home? Thinking that I had misheard, I turned to Emery

and Gregory only to see them showing the same befuddled look like mine.

At that instant, I could not help but suspect what James had told me.

Are they really away from home? Or could it be that they’re afraid to let us in the house since we’ve

made a surprise visit?

As we exchanged looks and wondered what the hell was going on, we heard some noises coming from

the other side of the door again.

Click… Click… Click…

It was a slow and rhythmic tapping sound. It was as if something was hitting the ground.

Joseph leaned his ear against the door cautiously. After a while, he turned to us with a stern look.

“There’s someone inside!”

Something’s wrong. Even though Shaun is quite a mysterious person, he’s still Audrey’s saver. With that

in mind, I immediately instructed Joseph, “Kick the door down!”

I pulled Audrey aside while Emery pulled Gregory to the other corner. After that, Joseph threw a heavy

kick on the door.

Bang!

The door did not budge at all.

Feeling insulted by it, Joseph took a few steps back and got ready to charge again.

Bang!

The door was knocked out of its frame, causing both Joseph and the door to slam onto the smooth tiles

inside the house.

He was indeed Ashton’s most excellent assistant. Despite suffering such a huge impact, he did not even

make a peep. Instead, he stood up after a few seconds as though nothing had happened. He picked up

the door and placed it aside effortlessly before making way for us to enter.

The moment we stepped into the house, the clicking sounds rang out again from the kitchen at the left.

Joseph immediately followed the sound and went behind the cooking table.

The next second, he bent down. When he got up again, he was carrying Shaun in his arms. The latter

was barely breathing.

Shaun was not wearing any shirt, and his bone structure could be seen clearly due to his skinny body.

However, the most mind-blowing part was the fact that his body was covered in countless wounds. In just

a week, he had turned into a different person, looking like someone on the brink of death.
