Gwendolyn tensed up the moment she heard that, but she was quick to regain her composure and asked, “You’re overthinking things. Why would I want to stall for time? How would I benefit from doing that?”

Naturally, Charles did not believe her one bit.

That was when he recalled what Gwendolyn had said to him while they were arguing earlier.

She asked me if I had kept my promise to stop lying to her. Now that I think about it, she was probably referring to the antidote….

With that in mind, he narrowed his eyes menacingly and asked, “You already know that I have the antidote, don’t you?”

Gwendolyn’s expression slid into a surprised frown when she heard that. “Why would the antidote be with you? You said you left it in the palace, right?”

Charles felt increasingly uneasy when he saw the look on her face.

He then grabbed his phone and tried to contact the guards he had assigned to Alzer Palace, but no one answered his call.

F*ck! Something is definitely up!

Charles quickly gave Jonah a call and yelled, “Return to Alzer Palace right this instant! Check the place thoroughly for intruders!”

After hanging up the phone, he stood up and was about to head out when Gwendolyn grabbed him by the sleeve. “Where are you going? We’re not done here!”

“We’ll discuss that baby of yours later!” Charles replied coldly as he brushed her hand away and left.

Oh, no! Charles is way too cautious!

With that in mind, Gwendolyn tightened her grip on the ring and ran after him.

Meanwhile, Nico had searched all over Alzer Palace, but the antidote was nowhere to be found.
