Chapter 1388
Phil's eyes flickered as well. Followed by Phelps, he burst into laughter.
"How could I forget about him? Right, so do we still need Maja to come back to Brooklyn? I mean, we
just need the seal. If hypnotize her and take the seal directly, we can avoid a lot of hassle."
Philip idly twirled his fingertips, pondering the thought.
"That would be quite boring then, plus, she's the Holy Daughter's girl, chosen by the woman herself.
Don't you want to see how Maja's story ends?"
"I don't. I'm not like you; I don't take pleasure playing games. I want to achieve our goals swiftly and
efficiently."
Philip remained silent, his eyes a pool of calm.novelbin
Phil knew that he had his unresolved issues, so he let out a soft chuckle.
"But no matter what you do, I've got your back."
Phelps stood up; his expression unreadable.
"Let's head back for the meeting with the elders. If Maja refuses to comply in the end, we'll take care of
her. We can't let others know about her existence."
"What about the Jellyfish Seal?"
"We'll talk about that later. Even without that thing, others still have to listen to us."
"Alright, whatever you say goes."
Phil rose and followed him, casting a glance at the kitten on the floor that seemed eager to join them.
He simply gave it a glance.
Such a fragile creature, yet capable of causing harm.
Just like Maja, full of surprises.
Maja checked Ian's wound once more, relieved to see it healing. Her mind was finally at ease.
She delved into the address left behind by Eric, suspecting that the person who had helped Eric could
very well be Lillian.
But she needed to visit there to be sure.
Nobody knew the exact location of BK's stronghold for now, so the address was a good starting point. If
she found Lillian, it would be a stroke of luck.
Lillian knew far more than they did .
But now, she had to wait for Ian's full recovery. She couldn't bear the thought of him taking any more
risks. Now that they were together, they would face any challenge side by side.
Even if it meant going to hell and back.
In a villa in Greenfield.
Fitch frowned at the man who suddenly appeared before him.
Since Ian had confirmed Phelps's identity the previous night, he had immediately informed Tyler that
Fitch was still alive.
Tyler had lost a lot of weight recently. Anyone would be devastated upon discovering that a childhood
friend was actually the most deeply hidden enemy.
He had withdrawn from any gatherings recently, thinking over every interaction he had ever had with
Phelps in his mind. But in all those moments, there hadn’t been any sign that seemed wrong.
So when Ian had discovered a bug on him that day, Tyler was still clinging to a sliver of hope.
Maybe the bug was planted by someone else. Maybe Phelps was innocent.
But now, with Maja found and under Phelps's hypnotic influence, and Phelps himself as a key figure in
BK, Tyler, who didn’t know the organization well, finally couldn’t sit still. He drove for hours overnight to
the villa.
Upon seeing Fitch, he felt a twinge in his nose.
"Damn! The Haskins family have already held your funeral, and here you are, frolicking with a girl?"
It was no wonder Tyler was angry; when he saw Fitch, Fitch was kissing Zoey, clutching her chin.
That scene was enough to let anyone feel uncomfortable.
Fitch's frown deepened, and he let go of the girl, his expression darkening.
"And who is this?"
The last time an attractive guy showed up, and now another man, is Zoey attracting all these people?
Seeing Tyler, Zoey knew her mission to guard was over.
Her lashes fluttered down as she instinctively clung to Fitch's hand.
Fitch sensed her anxiety, holding her hand lightly. "What's wrong?"
Zoey just shook her head, forcing a smile.
