As soon as Santiago finished speaking, he grabbed the staff from the ground

and, with a powerful “Dragon Splash,” pierced straight through the wall. The

force of his strike was so intense that it didn’t just break the wall of Peach

Blossom House–it also left gaping holes in the walls of several neighboring

houses.

“Oh, sh*t!” Santiago realized he’d gotten carried away and jumped up,

snatching the Silver Dragon Spear before making a run for it. As he dashed

off, he shouted, “Emmanuel, cover for me! Consider it a favor to your old

master! I’m out of here!”

Emmanuel stood speechless.

heard shouting from nearby.

“Santiago, was that you again?”

“Drunk and causing trouble again? Pay up!”

Hearing the scolding, Emmanuel shook his head in speechlessness.

Fortunately, he wasn’t short on money. Sigh, I guess I’m paying my way out of

this.

After taking a verbal lashing from a few elderly women, Emmanuel returned

to the hillside, feeling rather defeated.

Mackenzie was still by Alessandra and Sarah’s graves, quietly speaking to the

departed. When she saw Emmanuel returning, she greeted him with a

radiant smile.

“Manny, I heard from Mackenzie that you’re heading to Eldoria. Mind taking

me with you?” Shane eagerly asked.

“What’s the matter? You’re not staying in Yeringham to chase after Ms. Beatrix

anymore?” Emmanuel teased with a knowing grin.

“Nah, Beatrix isn’t interested in me. Why stay dead set on a pool when there’s

a sea of fish out there? Who knows, maybe my true love’s waiting out there!”

Shane replied, ever the pragmatist.

He had read in a dating guide that if one couldn’t win a girl over in three

months, it was probably a lost cause. He’d been chasing Beatrix for much

longer than that, and with no sign of her reciprocating his feelings, it was time

to move on.

Emmanuel chuckled, then turned to Frederick. “What about you?”

“Me? I’ll stay in Yeringham. The Quillen family is rebuilding, and Ms. Quillen just

gave birth. I’m sure Ms. Beatrix has a lot of pressure at work, so I’ll do my best

to help,” Frederick replied.

Unlike Shane, Frederick wasn’t one to give up easily. Even though he was

already 30 and his family was pressuring him to settle down, he wasn’t willing

to abandon his feelings. For him, love wasn’t about tactics or compatibility–it

was about staying true to his heart. If he couldn’t win Beatrix’s affection, he

“Alright, let’s head back Emmanuel said, respecting their choices as they

prepared to leave.

Back at the base, Beatrix was surprised to hear that Shane was leaving with

Emmanuel to resoue Roselynn. After all, Shane had been persistently hanging

around her, and now that he was suddenly giving up, she couldn’t help but wonder if her charm had faded.

“Shane, are you really leaving me? Beatrix asked, wanting to hear it straight

from him.

“Yeah,” Shane responded, his spirits lifting when Beatrix addressed him

directly. With renewed boldness, he added, “Are you reluctant to see me go, Ms. Beatrix? If you agree to be my girlfriend, fll stay and protect your”

Before he could finish his excited speech, Beatrix shook her head with a smile. “Oh, but I already have someone I ke

was walking right into embarrassment again. But then, Beatrix added, “Aren’t

you curious if the person I like is you?”

Shane’s head snapped back up in surprise. “Wait, are you saying… the person

you like is me?”

“Nope!” Beatrix shook her head again.

Shane stood there, speechless. The others could barely hold back their

laughter–Beatrix wasn’t just rejecting him, she was toying with him!

“Well… I guess I’ll be going now,” Shane sighed, turning to leave once more. But

Beatrix followed after him, teasing again. “Don’t you want to know if I was lying

to you just now?”

Shane spun around, his face lighting up with hope. “Were you lying earlier? I

knew it-”

“Nope!” Before he could finish, Beatrix shook her head yet again.
