?<strong>Chapter 922:</strong>


    Ken met his gaze evenly. “You don’t need to say it. I’ve got it covered.”


    “You’d better,” Gordon grumbled.


    Though he disliked Ken, even he had to admit that the man was skilled inbat.


    As Gordon and Amya departed, silence descended upon the room once again.


    Ken moved closer, slipping an arm around Allison’s waist.


    “If you want to speak to Lilian alone, I’ll restrain her and wait outside,” he offered, ever mindful of respecting her boundaries. Even with the person he held dearest, Ken understood that he needed to give her some privacy.


    He wouldn’t insist on listening to their conversation or ask her to share any secrets if she didn’t want to, especially when the subject concerned her mother.


    “That’s unnecessary.”


    Allison put her arms around Ken’s neck. “Even though Gianna is gone, she and my mother were always close. Our families’ paths have been connected for a long time. Therefore, you are a part of this matter, too, and it’s natural for you to join our conversation. We can handle it together.”


    Ken stopped for a moment, staring into Allison’s eyes. “Okay, we’ll see Lilian together.”


    Ken then guided Allison to the ce where Lilian was kept.


    M??? ??????s ?? ????????s.???


    Soon, they reached an important location.


    Kylo had arranged for them to stay in a house he owned in Fleeinnd. It was as big as half a manor, but what set it apart was its proximity to the street. The neighborhood was one of the few valuable plots in Fleeinnd. Right next to the house, there was a busy and prosperousmercial area.


    Lilian, the test subject, was being kept on the north side of the property.


    Allison looked up and saw a white, three-story building that resembled a warehouse. What made it stand out was theck of windows. It waspletely sealed off.


    “Mr. Lloyd, Ms. rke, the person you’re looking for is in a single room on the second floor. Please follow me.”


    Kylo’s men were already at the entrance. When they saw Ken and Allison, they quickly let them through.


    “Thanks.” Allison followed the guide up the stairs.


    She looked around and saw that the security here was just as tight as in Verruckt’s research institute. True to Kylo’s reputation, he was careful and precise.


    When they reached the room where Lilian was kept, they were surprised to find it spacious. The room was decorated in warm tones, giving it the feel of a typical girl’s bedroom at first nce.


    Ken slid the card into the lock, and the door opened with a soft “beep.”


    Ken turned to the staff and said, “You can go now.”
