Chapter Twenty-Nine:


Sage's Residence


"Where is your wife?" as soon as I came, Netro immediately approached me and quickly asked me.


"She's..." what should I say? That my wife ran away after we had an argument? I don't think it would be good to let them know about our personal issues. "She's at home." I lied.


"You're lying." Sai said as she approaches us. "She went out and now I couldn't sense her anywhere."


"That's impossible." I spoke. "Mond watched over her."


"And yet she's gone." Sai replied.


"That's really impossible! I knew she was safe." I firmly stated even though doubt slowly emerging.


"Then, how can you explain this?" Sai said and look passed through me. "What happened?" she directly asked the person who suddenly came.


I quickly turned around only to meet Redmond. "Wh-what are you doing here?" I asked with mixed fear.


"I'm sorry, but... Lady Shu was gone."


Silence suddenly surrounds us all and at this moment I don't really know what else should I think.


"We better move before they've done something." Sai said that breaks the silence. "Haimon, let's go!" she said when I didn't move.


"You need to brace yourself, Mon." Norward said as he taps my shoulder. "We need to go now."


I deeply take a deep breath before I nodded and followed them out of the house.

Del Gazini's Residence


We are now at the front gate of our house because I said to Kanik that I wanted to go home. I just wanted to go home and ask directly Haimon about the thing that Kanik told me. Though I don't know if I got the courage to ask him or I should just pretend that I don't hear anything from Kanik and live like we used to be.


"Take this," Kanik said as he handed me his calling card. "You can call me anytime if you are ready to know the truth."


I look at it longer enough that he took my hand instead and put it there. I look up to him with surprised and spoke. "Do I really need to call you?" I asked even though he already told me earlier from his house that I need to find out my past life to know the whole truth.


"As I told you earlier, you need to find out the whole truth." He spoke. "The truth that Haimon hidden from you, and I know you wanted it too. And knowing Haimon, he won't let you learn the whole truth. He will pretend in the end just to let you stay blinded from the truth, and I cannot allow it anymore."
