Chapter 1836
Rocky laughed as he said, “You‘re so brutal to cut off their escape.”
Zenovia‘s eyes were cold. “Let‘s wait for the good news.”
At a sanatorium in a small town somewhere…
Edison waited in front of the door with two men in black. Nollace and Colton were in the study, having a serious discussion with the director of the sanatorium.
Almost all the patients in the courtyard were from all walks of life. Some were reading, some were zoning out, and some were talking to each other.
It was calm and clean.
Daisie sat on the stairs with her head resting on her hands in thought.
Freyja walked next to her and sat down. “This short holiday isn‘t very fun.”
Daisie sighed. “Who knew this was going to happen?”

They finally had a few days of holiday, but this happened.
Nollace and Colton walked out, then Daisie stood up and heard Nollace say, “The director is going to let us stay here for a night.”
Freyja was surprised. “Why don‘t we just go back to the city?
Weren‘t the three people caught already?”
Nollace smiled. “If he and Zenovia arranged for all this to happen, they should have a backup plan. We don‘t know if they have other people hiding around, so we might not get
Daisie pressed her lips together and was silent.
Daisie and Freyja shared a room while Nollace and Colton shared another. They
were mostly on opposite sides but would put their differences aside when they needed to work together.
The night arrived, and it was pitch black around the town.
There were noises of bugs coming from the woods, adding some sound to the quiet night.
Daisie had trouble sleeping, so she sat on the long bench in the courtyard with a jacket, the yellow street light giving her a long shadow.
Someone approached her slowly and stopped behind her. Daisie could feel that, so she turned around and jumped.
“Why are you sneaking around?”
Nollace wore a thin shirt with the top button loose.
He chuckled. “What about you? Why are you here in the middle of the night?”
She mumbled, “I can‘t sleep.”
Nollace sat down next to her and asked, “Were you afraid?”
Daisie looked down before turning her head. “No. Do you think
I‘m helpless ? You and Colton always step up when problems arise, but I can‘t do anything to help.”
Nollace placed his palm on her cheek and raised her face. “Is that what you think?”
She pressed her lips together and didn‘t answer.
Nollace ran his finger across the corner of her eye and stared at her. “Daisie, I wish that you‘re always innocent like this because no matter what happens, I will always be by yo

Daisie leaned into his chest, so Nollace hugged her and kissed the top of her head.
“Nolly,” She called.
Nollace nodded.
“Do you know the director of this place?”
He seemingly was surprised, and his eyes grew dark. “I stayed here before.”
Daisie sat up and looked at him in shock. “You were at a sanatorium!?”
Nollace smiled as he replied, “Car accident. I was sent here for almost half a year.”
Daisie suddenly recalled something, lowered her head, and didn‘t speak. She had almost forgotten he had lost his memories in a car accident.
“Do… Do you remember anything?”
