?Chapter 597:


    Soon, everything was packed.


    Samuel motioned toward the exit. “Please, Miss Wade.”


    K resisted.


    In desperation, she blurted out, “I need to use the bathroom.”


    It was an urgent call of nature.


    Samuel paused but ultimately consented. “Very well, but be quick.”


    K lowered her head, concealing the scheming look in her eyes. She walked slowly to the bathroom and locked the door behind her.


    Time passed, and K didn’te out.


    Feeling uneasy, Samuel knocked on the door. “Miss Wade?”


    Silence.


    Something was amiss.


    He forced the door open to find the window wide open.


    K had fled.


    “Damn it!” Samuel cursed softly.


    “Start a search! Lock down the area and find her!” By then, K had already left the neighborhood. She gged down a taxi and instructed the driver to head to the Quinn family’s vi. It was her only option now; she would figure out the next steps once there.


    Upon arriving at the Quinn family’s vi, K paid the driver and nearly twisted her ankle as she got out of the car. She steadied herself using the car door and looked up to see Vivi sneaking around, clearly involved in something secretive.


    “Vivi? What are you up to?” K inquired.


    Caught off guard, Vivi quickly hid her hands and averted her gaze. “Why are you here?”

    K’s suspicion intensified, but she held it back. She needed Vivi’s assistance.


    “I need a ce to stay for a bit.”


    Vivi snorted, as if amused. “Aren’t you staying at Noah’s ce? What, did he kick you out?”


    She scanned K from head to toe, her gaze dripping with derision.


    “And looking so disheveled,” she added.


    K’s face flushed with anger.


    “Noah is just temporarily enchanted by that temptress Sadie! He’ll realize his mistake and take me back!”


    Vivi felt a twinge of satisfaction seeing K flustered, but she remained silent. She then motioned toward the door.


    “Come in.”


    K caught the sneer in Vivi’s eyes but swallowed her pride. Realizing now was not the time to confront Vivi, she clenched her teeth and entered the vi.


    Vivi wasn’t faring much better herself.


    As they stepped into the living room, they overheard Moses’s obsequious tone.


    “Don’t worry, Anson, I’ll ensure she’s ready for you.” It was clear who “she” was.


    Vivi pressed her lips together, choosing to remain silent.


    Meanwhile, Anson, lounging across the room, noticed Vivi’s entrance.
