'OMG, she is more obsessed than me,' Chantha thought to herself while eyeing Jane with disbelief.
"Is that the reason why you killed Monica?" Chantha blurted out.
Axel, Violet, and Spider glanced at Jane, anticipating her response.
Jane smirked dangerously and replied, "I was deceived by someone. There is a deeper story behind this. And I know who are the true enemies, challenging your Supreme Leader."
A cold glint flashed in Jane's eyes as Vincent and Monica popped up in her mind.
She only had twelve days to complete her mission. She wondered if she could deal with both Monica and Vincent in her remaining time.
'I need to be proactive. Aside from pursuing Nathan, I must get my revenge against Monica.' Jane clenched her fists at that thought.
"Phantomflake, Black Rose, I think it's time for you to take a rest. I'll bring you to your prison cell." Axel spoke up, motioning for them to follow him.
Jane crumpled her face. She didn't want to be a prisoner. But she had to cooperate and behave in the meantime.
"Alright. Have a good night, guys!" Jane bade her farewell to Chantha, Violet, and Spider.
The three just watched Phantomflake's back until she vanished from their sight.
"Damn! I still couldn't believe it. Phantomflake is here and she knew all of us! Why do I feel like she's not our enemy at all!" Chantha expressed her opinion after her first encounter with Jane. She couldn't bring herself to hate Phantomflake.
"Do you think she is up to something? We need to heighten our security. Who knows she has a secret plan, that's why she easily surrendered herself," Violet was still suspicious of Jane's motive.
"Yes, I agree. It's better to be more careful." Spider supported Violet's idea.
Chantha just bobbed her head and raised her hand. "I volunteer to watch over Phantomflake!" She grinned from ear to ear.
Violet and Spider met each other's gaze, thinking about the same thing– 'Chantha just wanted to interact with Phantomflake more.'
Meanwhile, Axel escorted Jane and Black Rose to their detaining cell. There were two beds inside.
Nathan didn't know how he would reply to his son. Ethan would be heartbroken when he found out that his mother was already dead. Because of this, his hatred and resentment toward Phantomflake intensified further.
Nathan scooped his son, carrying him. "We will find her tomorrow. You have to sleep for now."
Ethan just clung to his father as he brought him to his room. Butler Li was following them from behind.
Nathan tucked Ethan on the bed and the young boy drifted off to sleep instantly. He gently stroked his son's head before he stood up.
"Master, I think Little Ethan noticed something. A few hours ago, when he woke up, the young master suddenly acted strangely. He kept asking me to look for you and his mom. He cried as if he had a nightmare. He just calmed down when I told him you were coming home." Butler Li informed Nathan about Ethan's odd behavior.
"When are you going to tell him the truth? He deserves to know."
The crease on Nathan's forehead deepened. He didn't know how he would reveal the truth to his son. Even he himself still couldn't accept Monica's death.
"It's not time yet. I have to avenge her death first. I caught the culprit. I'm just waiting for something before I punish her." Nathan was referring to the DNA test results.
Butler Li just heaved a deep sigh. "I'm glad you caught the assassin. I hope you can get justice."
Nathan clenched his fists and replied, "I will."
Butler Li excused himself while Nathan stayed in Ethan's room. He just stood there, watching his son, complicated emotions flashing on his face.
'Don't worry, son. I'll avenge your mother.' He swore to himself.
Nathan was about to leave the room when Little Ethan suddenly spoke up in his sleep.
"Mommy. Mommy..." he was calling for his mother.
'He is missing her already.' Nathan's heart sank just hearing the longing in his son's voice.
Ethan kept murmuring in his sleep. Then suddenly...
"Mommy Jane..."
'Jane? Who is Jane?' Nathan frowned.
