Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2041

"Easy there, tiger!" Gab said in a calm voice, "I'm not blaming him. He could've been harder on Estelle, but he held back—I saw it. And let's face it, there were things I could’ve done better back in the day. He's got every right to be mad at me!"

Xavier's eyes darkened further. From the moment he set foot in Citadel, he had been retracing Raiden's steps, piecing together his whereabouts.

Before even arriving in Zion, he was almost certain that Raiden was Wolf.

After all, they had fought side by side for seven years—Xavier knew him better than Gab did.

He had been furious when he left, unable to fathom why Wolf would side with the Triceratops and stand against Gab. Especially after reaching the rooftop and witnessing Wolf about to take Estelle down, he had nearly lost his mind!

Thinking back, if he hadn't been so hot-headed, perhaps their reunion after seven years wouldn't have been so rushed and confrontational. Maybe Wolf wouldn't have died.

After everything he'd been through to survive, it shouldn't have ended this way.

"Maybe it was Wolf's fate. Don't dwell on it," Gab said, "You need to heal up and head back home."

"What about you?" Xavier asked.

"No missions for now. I might just head back with you guys," Gab replied.

He had spent so few days at home over the years, and it had been such a long time since he last checked in with his grandfather. It was time to pay the old man a visit.

"Good!" Xavier nodded firmly, "Let me know when Estelle wakes up."

"Will do."

Come noon, Estelle still hadn't woken up.

Jonathan, who hadn't eaten or rested, kept vigil by her bedside, but something felt off. He stood up to get a doctor.

As he opened the door, he found Lambert standing outside.

Looking into the room at Estelle, Lambert said gravely, "You might try waking her up. She needs someone to call her back."
