Chapter 845

    Seeing the ce, something about it struck a chord of familiarity within him.


    It wasn''t until a moment of deep reflection that he recalled the name "Spirit Vige" from amongst Elizabeth''s belongings.


    Putting together Elizabeth''s dreams and his own obsession with her, it wasn''t hard to guess where the treasure was located!


    "You head to Spirit Vige first, take someone with you. Once you''ve settled Elysia, I''ll follow immediately!"


    "..." Axel wasted no time, turning on his heel and leaving.


    Meanwhile, Keith had regrouped with his own crew.


    Seeing him in a state, they were surprised, "What happened?"


    Keith''s lips were pressed tightly together, he was panting heavily, gritting his teeth, "Back to town, quick!"


    "Back to the vige?"


    "Yes!"


    "What about Miss Thorne? She''s been looking forward to meeting her."


    Keith frowned, "Next time!"


    Sensing his mood was off, his men didn''t dare to probe further and quickly started the car.


    Keith leaned back in the rear seat, ignoring the wound on his thigh, closing his eyes to quell his rage.


    He hadn''t expected Tarquin to ambush him there!


    And if Tarquin had discovered that ce, he must have also found out about Spirit Vige!


    Without a doubt, Tarquin had already sent men there!


    The treasure was in Spirit Vige!


    He couldn''t worry about Elysia now; he had to get back to the treasure first, figuring out how to move it somewhere safe.


    He couldn''t let Tarquin find the treasure first!


    It was his; Tarquin couldn''t take her away!


    After a while, Keith opened his eyes, tearing his pants to reveal the wound on his thigh.


    Annoyed, he looked at it; it was a nasty cut, long and deep, almost to the bone, still bleeding profusely.


    Keith grabbed a towel, biting down on it as he opened the car''s first aid kit, taking out alcohol and a suture kit to treat himself!


    His men nced at him through the rearview mirror, shuddering at the sight.


    Such a big cut, and only someone as tough as Keith would dare to stitch it up himself!


    "Should we... make a stop at the hospital?"


    A cold re from Keith was enough to silence the driver, who didn''t dare to make another sound.


    Those who followed Keith didn''t know exactly what he had been through.


    But they all knew two things about Keith.


    One, he was ruthlessly cold-blooded, harsh to others, and even harsher to himself!


    Two, he loved his daughter more than anything; nothing was more important than his little girl!


    Keith gave all his love and tenderness to his treasure, leaving none for outsiders, not even for himself!


    ...


    No sooner had Axel left, Tarquin received a call from Lowell,


    "Tarquin, finally got a lead on Keith''s identity. He''s from Border City, part of the Inkster family!"


    Tarquin frowned, "Border City? The Inkster family?"


    Never heard of it!


    "Right, his father''s name is Phineas Inkster. Keith is the youngest Inkster, originally named Quin Inkster. He has two older brothers and a sister, but now they''re all missing."


    "Missing?"


    "Yeah, as in their fate is unknown. No one''s seen them alive, nor found their bodies."


    "...Is it rted to the Bradford family?"


    "Don''t know, but from what we''ve dug up, the Inskters had no prior connections or dealings with the Bradfords. However, the year the Inksters went missing, Gideon had visited Border City."


    Meaning, the Inksters and the Bradfords had no rtionship, no interactions, no acquaintances.


    But, the mysterious disappearance of the Inkster family might have something to do with the Bradfords.
