In their eyes, it did not matter if she died, but the same could not be said about Kevin. In fact, her parents weren't even willing to sacrifice themselves.
She couldn't forget how they had chosen to abandon her during that critical moment.
She let out a long sigh.
What am I supposed to do now, though? They're still my family, after all.
After hesitating for a long while, she chose to step into one of the small neighborhoods in Pollerton Estates.
She was trying to relax when all of a sudden, she stopped in her tracks and looked at the Supreme Villa.
It was a villa worth one billion three hundred million, which piqued her interest.
While she was staring at it curiously, two people slowly approached her from the side. One of them was an elderly man, and the other was a young man.
The older one seemed to be in his eighties, and he was clad in a blue robe. The younger man was around twenty-six or twenty-seven. His face was pale, and he looked sick.
It was Tyrone and Xylus Hayes, who was there to protect the former.
“I asked around earlier, and it turns out that Supreme Villa has already been sold. We were unable to find any information about the buyer,” Xylus explained.
“I want to live here,” Tyrone stated.
He pulled a handkerchief out from his pocket and covered his mouth before letting out a few more coughs.
“I shall arrange that, then,” Xylus replied. He was about to turn around when he glanced at Jennifer for a moment and then swiftly averted his gaze.
He assumed that she was just some random citizen. Even if she stayed in Pollerton Estates, that didn't mean she was someone formidable.
However, Xylus suddenly turned back around and stared straight at Jennifer. After carefully looking her up and down, he was shaken up so much to the point that he was trembling from head to toe.
Jennifer, on the other hand, didn't notice anything out of place. She only shot them a confused look, then turned and left without greeting them.
Tyrone noticed that there was something off about Xylus. He frowned and asked, “What is it?”
“Prince Nigel... That woman, she...” Xylus was just too worked up, clutching Tyrone's arm suddenly.
