Chapter 38: Evelyn Cross
Malcolm started to walk with too many thoughts in his mind. He initially wanted to investigate The Marooner because of something he wasnt even sure of, but he ended up finding a person with blood abilities. It was like this whole incident was his lucky encounter. Not only could he validate the thought he had after he saw him, if he were to find The Marooner, but the latter also helped him find a person with blood ability.
He would eventually hear the person with the blood element, but it was always better to be aware of it earlier than later. If they left the person with a blood element growing up without their knowledge, they would pay for it.
He was still troubled with the newly emerged blood element user when he saw the most beautiful woman on Earth. He stopped and admired her from afar as she talked to her colleague.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates
She had raven black hair and almond-emerald eyes. She had a white lab coat over her black clothes, and the contrast was brightening her beauty.
Talking to her colleague, she noticed stares at her. She then looked in a certain direction. A rose bed then blossomed on her dimples as she saw the person staring at her. She said her goodbye to her friend and walked to Malcolm.
You are watching me like love stricken again? I thought you would stop doing it after our third child. She said lovingly as she reached out for a kiss.
I will always admire your beauty, my Queen. Malcolm said as he tried to hide the goofy look on his face.
Oh, you're gonna make me blush. Evelyn said but then turned serious the next. Have you found him?
Not yet, but we are close. I found three possible strongholds he can be in. Malcolm said as he pulled Evelyn to a side. The hall was crowded, and he didnt want to talk among too many people.. Malcolm checked to see if there was anyone paying attention to them before showing the map his aide sent earlier.
Are you sure about your insight? I mean you were still far from him when he ran away. Is there a chance for you to be mistaken? Evelyn asked after some time. He knew his husband, but the thing he said was something she was researching for years. She was lost, because she was defeated in a scientific breakthrough, but she was also glad to see her ideas were still possible and proven.
What did you say, honey? Evelyn looked at Malcolm with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.
Sweetheart, I wanted to tell you this, but I wasnt sure how you would react. Malcolm said as he loosened his collar. Miles, kinda, took a Strengthening Serum and is a lot stronger than what we think.
WHAT!? Evelyn was surprised. Who let my baby take that damned medicine at his age?
Probably us. Remember you said there was 1 ml missing from 10 bottles a year ago. Malcolm said. They probably werent missing.
Ah, as expected of my son. He took 1 ml from each bottle to make one, instead of stealing one whole bottle. Evelyn praised her son then realized.
That spawn of the devil will get smacked so hard, the serum will come out his nose. Then she looked at her husband angrily. How long have you known this? To think my baby survived after using that medicine only proves his will, I wonder what he is doing right now. I know we decided not to bother him with constant calls but I cant help but wonder.
Malcolm, at this point, lost all his demeanor and looked like a scared kid. I learned a few days ago, I promise. Merlin told me and he learned it from Quinn.
Hmm. Evelyn snorted and walked towards the door. That lass? I like her. But Merlin will taste motherly love when he returns.
As for you Evelyn turned back and looked at Malcolm with an evil smile. You are not getting it for a month.
NOOOOOOOOO! The painful cries of the Major General reverberated throughout the headquarters.
All men heard the scream, and shared the pain with the fallen soldier. They all stood still for a minute to support and showed him respect.
