Chapter 607
Shermaine thought, "Looks like Henry will have to stay single forever. That good-looking face of his isnโt helping him at all."
She stayed in the Kingdom of Xyperia for about five days. It was only after Dave had swallowed quite a few aura stones that they set off back to Wallington.
They got back just in time. As soon as Shermaine returned, she received a list from Zachary. It had the names of students from various countries chosen to be sent to Xyperia.
Each one was the cream of the crop in their respective countries. Shermaine flipped through it and thought it was all right.
The night grew deep. The night in Loang was romantic and blurry.
A young man named Rhys Hugh from that list was walking out of a bookstore to his car at this moment.
The street lamp here was broken, and no one was passing by. Suddenly, he felt someone cover his mouth from behind. He inhaled the knockout drug and fainted. Immediately, he was dragged into a car.
At this moment, it started to rain. Late at night, a man in a black raincoat was digging a hole. He threw the man, who was only wearing pants, into it and then buried him.
After cleaning up the evidence, he drove home. Of course, he did not return to his old home but to Rhysโ. From now on, he would be Rhys.
He had come for revenge. In two years, he was determined to make Shermaine pay for killing Faye.
Early the next morning, he boarded the plane arranged by the government under Rhysโ identity, heading to Wallington to gather. Then, all the scholars were put up in a hotel.
After arriving in Wallington, he became even more cautious. In June, they were picked up. Then, in the early hours of that night, a Little Dave squatted on top of Henryโs head.
When Henry saw everyone had arrived, he said, โLetโs go.โ
Dave nodded, then emitted a blue light and floated into the air.
At this moment in Xyperia, Thomas kept crying because Gracie had gone home. After Gracie left, he was so sad that he cried almost every time he woke up.
Jasmine wiped his tears and comforted him, โWhen you grow up, you can play with Gracie.โ
Thomas could not understand this. He only knew that Gracie was not here. He wanted to play with Gracie.
Thomasโ tears got on Jasmineโs nerves. Luckily, Thomas was so young that he cried himself to sleep. Jasmine shook her head with a bitter smile. She could not reduce Thomasโ dependence on Gracie either.
After sending him back to his room to sleep, Jasmine felt exhausted. Coaxing Thomas was more tiring than handling official business or having sex with Damien.
โDamien,โ she called out.
Damien came out of the study. When he saw a large wet patch on Jasmineโs shirt, he knew it was their sonโs tears. He asked, โWhatโs wrong?โ
โLetโs have another baby,โ Jasmine emphasized, โI want a daughter.โ
Damien smiled as he unbuckled his belt, saying, โSure, Iโll satisfy you right now.โ
At this moment, a beam of light descended from the sky. The next second, the group of scholars vanished from where they were. After a dizzy spell, they arrived in the Kingdom of Xyperia.
It was Henryโs first time here, and he was immediately shocked by this cool country.
Damien was waiting to receive them. When he saw Henry, he stepped forward to greet him.
Henry shook his hand in return. โHello, Mr. Hale.โ Before coming, Shermaine had told him that Damien was Joshuaโs right-hand man in this country.
Damien added, โWelcome to the Kingdom of Xyperia.โ
