Chapter 682
Tiffany couldn’t understand this point. She pondered if Felix was trying to use Kenneth’s body to get closer to someone.
She knew Felix was a troublemaker who couldn’t be kept around. She should have killed Felix while he was trapped in his nightmare. It was too bad she missed her chance.
Noticing Tiffany’s changing expression, Kenneth asked, “What exactly is that experiment chamber?”
Tiffany said, “You probably won’t believe it if I tell you”
She walked while recounting what happened when Lorenzo had kidnapped her. Upon hearing that Melody wanted to take over her body, Kenneth’s face showed extreme shock.
If these words hadn’t come from Tiffany’s mouth, he probably wouldn’t have believed it.
Kenneth couldn’t believe there was a bizarre device that could switch two people’s souls. Felix controlling him also meant he wanted to steal his body.
Kenneth’s face darkened, and a vague thought surfaced in his mind. He could roughly guess what Felix wanted to do.
Kenneth turned to look at Tiffany. She was on the phone, her clear, crisp voice ringing out in the quiet night air, calm and pleasant to hear.
“Yes, it’s outside the city. June, drive slowly when you come.”
After hanging up, Tiffany looked up and happened to catch Kenneth looking at her with an expression as if he wanted to say something but was holding back.
“What’s wrong?” she asked.
“It’s nothing…” Kenneth hesitated briefly before quickly covering it up.
Tiffany felt he was hiding something, bu
you must tell me.”
Kenneth wouldn’t be this lucky every time.
out of trust for her partner, she didn’t press further and said, “If there’s something,
Like this time, if she hadn’t shown up by chance, Kenneth would probably have been captured by Felix.
Kenneth looked at Tiffany for a long time before smiling slightly, “Alright, I will.”
He would protect himself, and he would also do his best to protect her. However, he didn’t say that part out aloud.
Even though he had thoughts of something more than just friendship for Tiffany, after being struck back to reality by Richard, he no longer dared to have such thoughts.
More importantly, being able to appear before Tiffany as a friend was already good enough.
Thinking of Felix, Kenneth clenched his fist, a murderous intent surging in his heart.
Soon, June arrived. Tiffany pulled Kenneth toward the car, but Kenneth stood still and smiled casually, saying, “You go ahead. I’ve asked Odin to pick me up.”
Tiffany replied, “Alright, but remember to go to the hospital to treat your wound, and also the tracking bracelet on your
hand.”
Kenneth responded, “Okay.”

Tiffany nodded and didn’t say more. She got in the car and left.
After Tiffany left, another group of cars appeared from a different road. Odin, along with others, appeared before Kenneth and used a small device to remove the tracking bracelet from his wrist.
Kenneth rotated his wrist and then sat in the car. He said, “Let’s go.”
“Yes.” Odin waved his hand, and everyone got into the cars.
In the quiet, deep night, the convoy sped toward Felix’s villa.
This time, Kenneth brought plenty of people and weapons. With old grudges and new enmities, he vowed to destroy Felix completely.
Tiffany yawned in the car.
For some reason, she had been feeling sleepy for the past two days.
June, who was driving, glanced at her several times and cautiously asked, “How did you end up with Kenneth?”
“We ran into each other by chance,” Tiffany casually replied, leaning tiredly against her seat.
She had just helped Kenneth escape from Felix’s pursuit, which had taken a lot of energy. Looking out the window at the rapidly passing scenery, her eyelids were getting heavy.
The car stopped at the entrance to Royal Bay.
Tiffany entered, and seeing that John and the others hadn’t returned, she knew they were still out searching.
A servant saw her and immediately said, “Mrs. Hampton, you don’t look well. I’ve made some soup. Would you like to have some before going to sleep?”
“Alright.” Tiffany agreed.
The mushroom soup was quickly brought over. It was rich and fragrant. The smell soon filled the air. Tiffany sat at the dining table. Looking at the soup, she suddenly felt an overwhelming, queasy sensation in her stomach.
She quickly stood up and rushed to the restroom on the first floor.
The servant was momentarily stunned, thinking that maybe the soup didn’t suit Tiffany’s taste, and immediately looked worried.
Another servant spoke up. “Could it be that Mrs. Hampton is pregnant?”
Tiffany took a long time to come out of the bathroom. She looked at the servant who was making the soup and smiled apologetically. “Elsa, your soup smells wonderful. It’s just my stomach acting up.”
“Oh, not at all.” Elsa waved her hands repeatedly, but couldn’t help adding, “Mrs. Hampton, could it be that you’re pregnant? Should we call Mr. Pauley to check?”
Tiffany was stunned. ‘Pregnant? Impossible!‘
Tiffany subconsciously wanted to refute it, but she recalled her recent reaction. She was sleepy and had a poor appetite. She seemed to be showing signs of pregnancy.
For a moment, Tiffany was pleasantly surprised.
Chapter 682
Unfortunately, the timing of the pregnancy was not ideal.
She ordered, “Elsa, don’t mention this to anyone.”
Not only was this just a guess, but most importantly, Richard was still missing. To prevent any trouble, it would be better if fewer people knew about this.
“Understood.” Elsa nodded, also making sure to keep the other servants quiet.
Back in her room, Tiffany took a shower and lay on the large bed.
The faint clues she had gathered from the Treasure Box hadn’t been useful. All she could say was that the shadowy figure wasn’t Felix. After all the commotion tonight, she still hadn’t found Richard, but she had once again accidentally saved Kenneth.
Tiffany turned over, her furrowed brows remaining tense.
Just then, her phone rang.
She hurriedly picked it up, thinking it might be news from John, but when she looked at the caller ID, she saw it was Jeremy calling.
She thought, ‘Could something have happened to Grandpa?‘
“Hello?”
As soon as Tiffany picked up, Jeremy’s voice came through, sounding more frantic than usual. “Miss Kelley, something’s happened.”
The private jet took off from Royal Bay.
Tiffany sat on the sofa, her mind replaying Jeremy’s words.
He said, “I think I saw Mr. Hampton.”
The news of Richard’s disappearance hadn’t spread, but over the past few days, Tiffany had ordered a thorough search. Even though Jeremy was far away with the Azure Sea Royal Family, he had caught wind of something.
Jeremy had quietly asked June and learned about Richard’s disappearance.
As luck would have it, he had seen Richard while in the Azure Sea Royal Family’s place.
Although it was just a side profile, Jeremy had recognized Richard at once. He immediately called Tiffany to report this
matter.
June had also come along, and seeing Tiffany still frowning, he tried to comfort her, “Now that we’ve found Mr. Hampton, it means he’s fine. You don’t need to worry.”
