Chapter 1260 Still Alive


    Josephine quietly waited because Zion woulde to her cell every night. Josephine’s cell was nicely


    furnished and she got the best treatment. The only shorings were theck of sunlight and


    freedom.


    After Zion entered the room, Josephine rose to her feet mechanically and took off her coat, revealing


    her fair arms. Numerous sizes of pinpricks dotted her arms.


    Zion took out an empty syringe without a word, piercing her skin with it. Blood started to fill the


    syringe’s barrel before long.


    Josephine had a deadpan expression on her face the entire time as she watched her blood fill the


    syringe.


    She was already numb by it.


    After drawing her blood, Zion ced an elixir on the table.


    The elixir was a supplement to supply Josephine’s body with the necessary nutrients. Zion knew


    Josephine was a goose thaty golden eggs, so he wouldn’t do anything that would threaten her life.


    He whirled around, ready to leave after storing the tube of blood.


    Josephine’s words stopped him in his tracks.


    “How is Jared?” she asked.


    She hadn’t spoken in a long time. It was a surprise that she broke her silence that day.


    Zion continued to walk toward the door. “Still alive.”


    Josephine let out a sigh of relief at the news.


    Zion headed deeper into the dungeon with Josephine’s blood.


    The smell was terrible in the deepest part of the dungeon.


    He finally came to a stop when he arrived at the innermost cell. He threw the tube of fresh blood into


    the cell.


    A soft ng sounded when the tube hit the floor. Then, the sound of someone swallowing echoed from


    the dark cell.


    The spine-chilling sound soon stopped, and a hoarse voice called out, “Have you killed Jared?”


    “Not yet. David from the Norton family is already on his way southward to kill Jared, so we’re dying


    our assassination n,” Zion answered.


    “Remember not to let Jared live. He will be the biggest threat to us in the future.”


    The hoarse voice sounded.


    Zion opened his mouth to say something but snapped it shut when nothing came out. In the end, he


    turned on his heels and left.


    Jared bid farewell to Cecilia and Millie after he got out of bed the next morning.


    Cecilia and Millie walked Jared to Crimson Pce’s gate to see him off.

    “Don’t forget your promise, Jared. Come and visit us when you have the time,” Millie said.


    “Don’t worry. I will.”


    Jared patted Millie’s head gently, nced at Cecilia, then turned around to leave.


    Yet, before he could take another step, a wave of powerful auras engulfed him, stunning him in his


    tracks. His brows furrowed at the strong force.


    One of the auras was especially brutal. It enveloped the entire Crimson Pce. The owner’s intention


    was clear. It was to prevent anyone within Crimson Pce from escaping.


    Cecilia and the members of Crimson Pce paled when they felt the crushing force.


    Soon a group of people had gathered outside the gate. Among them was a middle-aged man with a


    stony expression on his face. After sweeping his gaze around, he asked, “So you’re Jared?”


    Jared nodded. “Who are you?”


    “David Norton,” the middle-aged man answered.


    Jared felt numbness spread across his scalp. He never thought Skr’s father had alreadye out of


    training and tracked him all the way to Crimson Pce.


    Jared could sense that the aura exuding from David was much stronger than Richard’s.


    Jared didn’t have the confidence to fight against someone so powerful.


    “Your son can’t beat me, so his father is here instead,” Jared taunted with a snicker. Even though I’m


    worried about losing to David, I know I can’t show it.


    “Stop spewing nonsense, brat! I’m here for revenge! I’ll crush you for destroying my family and hurting


    my son!”


    A st of aura exploded from David’s body.
