Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge - Chapter 161

[ Golden City District Hospital… ]

The doctor passed out when the effect of the vampire’s mind control disappeared. Kira caught the doctor in his arms and let his unconscious body lie on the couch.

Marceline immediately left the office without a clear destination in mind. She just kept walking until she reached the Intensive Care Unit where Grandpa Roland was being treated.

Marceline sat down on the bench just outside the ICU, still trying to calm her emotions. She didn’t know what she should do. She was devastated when she heard from the doctor that her grandfather was dying and that he was poisoned.

Kira stood in front of her, lifting her chin so that their eyes would meet each other.

“My Lady, don’t be sad. We are not sure if the doctor is telling the truth. He was under the mind control of a vampire when he said those words. Don’t worry. I will confirm if this is true.” Kira tried to console her, caressing her cheek.

Marceline had a solemn expression on her face. She felt like crying but she chose not to. She wanted to be brave at this moment. Fortunately, Kira was there supporting her.

Soon, Kira sat down beside her, letting Marceline lean on his shoulder.

“You should sleep first. By the morning, we will have to deal with them.”

Marceline could only nod her head before leaning on his shoulder. She closed her eyes, feeling comfortable in Kira’s presence.

Kira just watched Marceline while stroking her hair. Complicated emotions were flashing in his eyes. He wondered about the identity of the vampire who sent those messages to Marceline.

‘Is he a friend or a foe?’ Kira mused to himself, still thinking of a way to confirm and verify the truth.

Kira recalled those werewolves and the witch who were put under his power. He still had control over their minds as he could summon them any time he needed them. He sent them as spies in the Triple W Headquarters.

Now, he was thinking of mobilizing them to investigate whether Grandpa Roland was poisoned or not. He already had a list of people in mind as prime suspects if Grandpa Roland was indeed poisoned by someone.

The number one on his list was Evelyn Zhou. If she was capable of ordering the hit to kill Marceline, she could also do it to eliminate the Zhou Patriarch.

The first time he met her, Kira could already sense the hostility she had towards Marceline. He was certain that Evelyn was a two-faced person. She was hiding her evil side using her innocent front.

Of course, second on his list was Ronan, Marceline’s Uncle. He caused the deaths of Marceline’s parents. Sacrificing his own brother because of his greed, it would not be surprising if he would not spare even his old man’s life.

Kira was also considering that Cedric and his pack had something to do with this. If not werewolves, then it would be from the opposing side– the vampires!

Kira was still lost in his thoughts when suddenly, Marceline’s head was about to fall off his shoulder. He immediately raised his hand to catch her head. It turned out Marceline had fallen asleep.

It was understandable as she was tired after transforming into her werewolf form. Her body was also aching. She fell onto the river, encountered a group of vampires, she fought and ran as fast as she could to avoid fighting those vampires.

Kira could only sigh helplessly, feeling sorry for Marceline. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders, pulling her closer to his body.

Then Kira closed his eyes as he began to send signals to his spies through his telepathic ability. He summoned them to come over. He needed them to do another task for him.

Twenty minutes later, three people arrived in the Golden City District Hospital, searching for Kira. They found him in front of Grandpa Roland’s ICU.

“Master! You summoned us. What do you need?” The Witch spoke up first.

“Shhhhhh!” Kira signaled them to keep quiet as he didn’t want to disturb Marceline’s sleep. “Let’s talk somewhere, not here,” he added.

Kira fixed Marceline’s sleeping position on the bench before he stood up. He motioned the witch to follow him inside the ICU room while allowing the two werewolves to stay on guard outside the ICU and watched Marceline.

“Check his condition. Find out if there is poison inside his body.” Kira ordered the witch. The witch immediately complied with his command.

The Witch scanned Grandpa Roland’s body using her diagnostic healing spell. The majority of the Witches often used this when trying to find out someone’s illness and curing them afterward.

Kira waited for her to finish scanning Grandpa Roland’s body. Deep inside, Kira was also anxious. He knew what Marceline would feel once they confirmed the truth.

If Grandpa Roland was poisoned, his next step was to find a cure as well as the culprit.

Ten minutes had passed when the Witch stopped. She was done diagnosing Grandpa Roland’s illness.

“Master! Indeed, there is poison inside his system. It was already scattered on the different parts of his body…” the Witch informed Kira, feeling nervous. She didn’t want to anger this vampire. She could tell that the patient was very important to Kira.

“What poison did they use?” Kira asked her with a dark expression on his face.

“The Black Flower, Master…” the witch promptly responded. “Master, it’s too late. We can no longer cure him. He is as good as dead now.”

Kira clenched his fists while gritting his teeth. His scarlet eyes were set ablaze with so much rage. Marceline would be more devastated after hearing this piece of bad news.

The vampire was not lying. He was informing Marceline of Grandpa Roland’s real condition. It seemed that it was already a hopeless case.

‘I don’t know how I will tell Marceline about this. She will be sad and heartbroken. Her grandpa is the only family member left who truly cares for her.’

“Find out who did this!” Kira gave her another task.

Kira couldn’t read Ronan’s mind as well as Evelyn’s mind as they were both holding the Ametiz Protection Stone. But he suspected that either one of them was responsible for this.

Since he couldn’t punish them using his power because of the protection they had from Ametiz stone, Kira had decided to use the human laws to deal with them.

[ Zhou Family Villa… ]

The next morning, Kira asked Marceline to return to the Zhou Family Villa. He already prepared everything. This would be a face-to-face confrontation with her Uncle and Aunt.

Evelyn and Ronan were having breakfast together with Natasha. Enrique hadn’t returned home yet as he didn’t stop searching for Marceline since dawn. He failed to find her location.

While the family of three was eating, Kira entered the dining area, surprising Ronan, Evelyn, and Natasha.

“What are you doing here?” Ronan was the one who asked Kira with his stern cold voice.

“If you are looking for Marceline, she’s not here,” Evelyn also spoke up as if she was not the one who ordered to eliminate Marceline.

“Do you want to join us for breakfast?” Natasha also joined the conversation, speaking to Kira with her sweet tone. She changed her attitude towards Kira as she thought Marceline would be disappointed and heartbroken once she succeeded in seducing her husband. Natasha had no idea that Marceline was missing while leaving a suicide note.

Marceline was also in the house but Kira asked her to hide for a moment.

“This is not your house. Go and leave!” Ronan firmly said, sending Kira away. He couldn’t bear to see Kira as he was reminded of Marceline. His niece was still missing. They couldn’t confirm if she was dead or alive. No one saw her body. Did she really commit suicide?

Kira didn’t say a word. He just stood there with his overbearing aura. It did not take long when one of the maids entered the dining area.

“Madam, Master… the police are here.”

Ronan and Evelyn exchanged meaningful glances with one another before ordering the maid to escort the police officers into the living area.

“Dad? What’s happening here?” Natasha asked them in confusion.

Kira smirked mockingly as he looked at them. “Just watch and see, Young Mistress Natasha,” he said with his sarcastic tone.

Not finishing their food, Ronan and Evelyn stood up, heading to the living area. Natasha also followed them.

“Time to pay for your crimes,” Kira murmured while watching the backs of Ronan and Evelyn.

Just when they reached the living area, the two police officers immediately approached the husband and wife, showing them the arrest warrant.

“Mrs. Evelyn Zhou, we are arresting you for being the prime suspect for the disappearance of Marceline Zhou!”

Evelyn:”…”

Ronan:”…”

Natasha:”…”
