It was late at night when Watson slipped himself into the dungeon. Something must be up.
He slowly walked over and looked at Megan, smiling. “Alliance Master Castello, don’t glare at me. I didn’t help you fight Donoghue in the day because he was way too powerful. I would be dead if I were to go up against him!”
Megan looked displeased and said curtly, “Stop with your nonsense. Are you working for Donoghue now?”
Even though Megan had guessed correctly, Watson did not panic. He smiled and said, “Alliance Master, don’t say it like that. I’m just pretending to be loyal to Donoghue. In my heart, you are the person I respect the most.”
He looked sincere when he spoke, but his eyes looked deceptive. That night, Watson went behind Donoghue’s back to visit Megan so he could take the Jade Fairy Flute from her.
Watson believed the Jade Fairy Flute belonged to the Tucker Cult. It was supposed to be his, but Megan was too powerful, and he had no choice but to give it to her.
However, Megan had become a prisoner at that moment, plus he had already consumed the antidote for the Dark Day Pill. He did not need to be afraid of her anymore.
‘Imbecile…’ Megan thought.
She was smart, so she could see at once that Watson was lying. She did not bother to say anything else.
She sneered and said, “Stop with your nonsense. What do you want?”
In the past, Megan would have attacked immediately, but she was heavily injured at that moment, so she could only hold back her rage.
Watson forced a smile and said seriously, “Alliance Master Castello, don’t panic. I’m actually here to rescue you. Of course, I have a condition. I want you to hand over the Jade Fairy Flute to me.”
Watson looked at Megan closely, waiting for her answer. His eyes were gleaming with hope.
If he had the Jade Fairy Flute, his powers would increase tremendously. Then, the future of the Tucker Cult would shine brightly!
Watson was closely paying attention to any movements outside. He was cautious as he could not let Donoghue catch wind of this situation. If not, the Tucker Cult would be finished.
