On the other side.
Cloud brought Vicki to a hidden semi-basement. Vicki had her eyes covered at the time, so she had no
idea where she was.
The semi-basement was never exposed to sunlight. Although it was a dim corner, Cloud kept it clean.
There was no musty smell, and the fresh air system was on 24/7. The floor was covered with old
European tiles, and the walls were uneven with textured silicon mud. The furniture and decorations
exuded a dark atmosphere.
Vicki figured this must be where Cloud usually hid in Khebury.
Vicki still had handcuffs on her hands, but her feet were not chained. However, there was an electronic
lock tied around her right ankle. If she moved beyond a five-meter radius of the room, the guards
outside would immediately know.
Vicki never considered running away.
On the contrary, during this time, she had been secretly observing Cloud's arrangements. Although
Cloud was cautious, she managed to pick up on some clues. For example, Athena was currently being
held captive by Christian. Naturally, Cloud had to find a way to rescue Athena; otherwise, he wouldn't
be able to proceed with the next mission assigned by Rohomes. Additionally, it seemed that something
had gone wrong on Rohomes' side. So Cloud's plan had to be expedited.
After a while, Cloud walked in carrying a plate. It contained today's lunch.
He placed it in front of Vicki and sat down in front of her.
"Vicki, Felix didn't continue looking for you. You said a few hurtful words to him, and he easily gave up
on you," Cloud said.
Vicki scoffed. She wouldn't easily believe Cloud's nonsense.
She glanced at the plate Cloud brought, and although it contained dishes she used to enjoy, she found
no appetite for them. In fact, they made her nauseous and disgusted. Her taste had changed long ago,
and she preferred the Western cuisine Felix would take her to. Steak paired with red wine, French
escargots with watercress, Atlantic salmon pasta with the aroma of sage. Times had changed, and she
was no longer the same person she used to be.
She picked up the chopsticks and took a few bites to fill herself up. Maintaining her strength was crucial
now, even if she felt uncomfortable.
After finishing lunch, she suppressed the discomfort in her stomach and pushed the plate forward.
She asked, "Cloud, how long do you plan to imprison me?"
Cloud looked at Vicki, his eyes darkened. Since he arrived here, she hadn't called him Rayan anymore.
Abandoning their previous address was equivalent to abandoning their past relationship. She had
indeed done it.
His heart ached as if he had taken a few punches, leaving him breathless.
"I said I'll take you away once I finish my business. I will get enough money to buy a small island in the
Caribbean. We can start anew there," Cloud said expressionlessly. He took out a piece of paper and
handed it to Vicki.
A small island in the Caribbean? Vicki sneered inwardly.
Once involved with OGW, she could never escape. Eternal peace was impossible to achieve. Even
though Charity was dead, Athena remained. Even without Athena, there would be others. In any case,
the Rohomes royal family would never give up control over OGW. Annihilating them all was the only
way out.
"What do you want me to do?" Vicki pointed to the paper in front of her and asked.
"It's simple. It won't be too difficult for you." Cloud handed her a pen. "Write a letter to Joyce. I will have
someone deliver it to her home. I need the design plans for the anti-electromagnetic pulse. That's all I
want."
Vicki sneered, "Even if she gives you the plans, you won't deliver both the plans and me. Am I right?"
She knew him well. It would definitely be like that.
Cloud frowned. She understood him too well. Nothing could escape her notice. Indeed, he had no
intention of letting her go. It had been so difficult to gain control over her; he couldn't easily give up.
"Vicki, give me some time. Once I have the plans, we can fulfill our wishes quickly," he promised.
"Stop dreaming. It's impossible," Vicki said disdainfully. "I will never be with you. You're dead to me."
After speaking, she suddenly felt a strong wave of nausea. The lunch she had just eaten was greasy,
and she could tolerate it while eating, but now it made her even more nauseous during digestion. She
had been experiencing such symptoms for two days now.
A vague suspicion arose in her mind. She might be pregnant. She might be carrying Felix's child. Heh,
it happened at a time like this. However, she should have anticipated it. They had been intimate so
frequently during this period, and she hadn't taken any precautions.
A child was a blessing from above. Being alone in the world, she now had a blood relative of her own.
She quietly placed her hand on her abdomen, feeling the weight on her shoulders increase. She had to
protect them.
She forcefully endured the discomfort and nausea, not wanting Cloud to notice anything unusual.
Cloud didn't perceive her condition. He placed the pen in her hand.
"Joyce should recognize your handwriting. I'm only asking you this one thing. You know, I never
intended to harm Joyce's child. I would never harm you either. But you have to help me. I need to
obtain these plans," Cloud's expression turned cold. "Handing over these plans won't cause any
significant harm to the warlords."
"Heh, that's how you see it? This thing is related to the power struggle within the Rohomes royal family,
the selection of the next emperor. It also affects the tense situation between the two countries. This fire
from Rohomes will surely burn Pascaylia's land, and there will be no peace. Cloud, you're aiding and
abetting tyranny," Vicki despised him.
"I can't worry about all that. Vicki, right now, I only want you! I want to be with you," Cloud roared.
Vicki stood up abruptly, looking down at Cloud. "Listen to me carefully! If you didn't hear it clearly last
time, then today, listen to each word clearly. I love Felix, I love him! I am his wife, and I will never be
with you in this lifetime! Even if I die, it will be the same!"
As she spoke, her anger caused her long hair to fly, showcasing her stunning and glamorous
appearance.
Cloud was stunned. Although he knew it, hearing it again shattered his heart once more. The intense
pain was almost unbearable.From NôvelDrama.Org.
He gritted his teeth. "Write what I asked you to write! If you don't write, I will have to take action through
Anderson. You wouldn't want to see that."
Vicki glared at him, her lips almost forming a straight line.
Suddenly, she picked up the pen, her handwriting flowing, and wrote down Cloud's request, signing her
name. Then, she forcefully slammed the pen onto Cloud's face.
"As you wish."
