“Dylan, oh, it’s midnight, why aren’t you back yet to keep me company? I’m really scared. Don’t you
want me anymore?” Dylan rubbed his temples with a sigh, “I’m with Dad, keeping watch. I’ll come back
later.” Judith’s voice turned tentative, “Dylan, did Beck say anything to you?” Like Maja’s true identity.
Beck and Ian had rushed to rescue Maja—did they already know who she really was? Otherwise, why
would Beck react so fiercely? If Dylan also knew, would he instantly turn his back on her? “He didn’t
say anything, Judith. Don’t overthink it.” “Dylan, will you always be on my side?” Dylan frowned, unsure
how to respond. “Judith, between you and Maja, I’ll definitely be on your side. I know you’re still upset
tonight. Don’t worry, I’ll find another chance to make things right.” But Judith’s heart was filled with
trepidation, “Okay, I trust you, Dylan.” After hanging up, she didn’t hesitate to call that man. “Did Beck

Maja’s identity came to light now, and Dylan sided with her, what was all her effort for? Little did she
know, in the eyes of that man, she was already a discarded pawn. He had always been sparing with
words when it came to discarded pawns. “No clue.” With those words, he hung up. The mask lay on the
table beside him, his fingers tapping lightly on the marble surface, his brows furrowed in dissatisfaction.
Fitch was recovering too quickly, but the Greenfield turf was his stronghold after all. It made sense he
could uncover this, but it was still a nuisance. Rubbing his temples, he heard Phil’s voice. “After our
identity was suspected, the situation in Greenfield was bound to spiral out of control. The Haskins
family is strong. There’s no need to worry too much.” “I know, but he’s just too lucky. If it weren’t for
Abner Olson picking him up, there’d be no Fitch in this world.” Phil sat down across from him, resting
his chin in one hand. “I’ve always wanted to know, what’s your plan? If you wanted BK, it’s

been in our hands for a while. All this effort, causing so much trouble, only to let those two have a
child.” He caressed the mask with his fingertips, pausing before saying, “The Holy Daughter should
never have taken me in. I just want her to learn that good people don’t always get rewarded.” Phil
raised an eyebrow, a smile creeping onto his face. “I don’t believe that’s your true intent. Even if you
told me you just wanted to make the Holy Daughter’s daughter miserable, I’d believe it. We have
grander plans. Let’s not toy with them too long; others might get impatient.” “Right.” The two fell silent,
a glint of power-lust flickering in his eyes. He needed to reach higher, much higher. BK was nothing.
The research facility was his ultimate goal. A smirk flitted across his lips, then his expression settled

bid farewell to Augus when he noticed his father’s eyes fluttering open. Augus stared blankly at the
ceiling. Dylan felt a sting in his heart and immediately grabbed his father’s hand. “Dad? Is there
something you want to say?” Tears streamed down Augus’s face, sinking into the pillow. Dylan had
never seen his stern father reveal such vulnerability. Augus’s heartache revolved around Jolin. He had
to get to the bottom of it. “Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll head back to Greenfield soon to investigate.” But
Augus’s eyes only opened for a few seconds before closing again. Had Dylan not seen it himself, he
might have thought it was an illusion. His gaze drifted downward, and he gently uncovered the blanket
beside him. Beneath it was Augus’s hand, clutching a small photograph, no larger than the palm of a
hand. Dylan took hold of his father’s hand, trying to extract the photo, but Augus’s grip was firm. It was
as if, in a fleeting moment of clarity, he had seized what mattered most and refused to let go. Only
when the grip relaxed did Dylan manage to retrieve the photograph. In it was a young Augus, standing
alongside a beautiful woman.
