Chapter 1249

On a distant hilltop. With binoculars in hand, Rory observed every move made by Zoe and Kyle. They had landed on the island late last night, hoping to take Zoe away immediately. However, the island's security measures were too strict, and they had not found an opportunity. Seeing Zoe and Kyle leave early in the morning today, they had been following them. Rory lowered the binoculars and casually remarked, "The church on the island is quite beautifully built. Does Kyle plan to hold a wedding ceremony with Zoe here?" "It's unlikely," Adam, standing behind Rory, replied after a moment of silence. "Back when Mable and Master Blair got married again, their wedding was held in this church." Rory's evil smile froze, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. So, Mable and Blair had their wedding here. Rory laughed sinisterly momentarily. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Is there dynamite on the ship?" "No." Adam looked at Rory and asked, furrowing his brow. "What do you intend to do?" "Blow up this church for me!" They had not brought enough people with them this time. If they caused such a commotion, they might have been unable to leave safely. … Inside the church. Zoe made a video call to Mable, chatting with her while showing her the decorations. "Mabes, you and Master Blair had your wedding here. Do you still have any memories here?" "Look at these roses; they're so beautiful. According to Ky, someone comes here daily to care for them. So, even after all this time, the flowers are still blooming and pristine." The church decoration on the video call felt familiar. However, Mable could not recall what happened there. "Mabes, can I pick a few roses when I leave later?" Zoe asked Mable. Blair planted the roses here for Mable, which meant they belonged to her. So, Zoe wanted to get Mable's permission. Mable immediately nodded and said, "Of course. Pick as many as you like." "Thank you, Mabes. I don't need too many, just a bouquet for my bedroom’s vase." After finishing the video call with Mable, Zoe took a basket and went to the garden outside the church. Kyle followed her with a camera to take pictures. In the end, Kyle cut about a dozen roses. After returning home, Zoe put the roses in a vase on the bedside table in her bedroom. Kyle looked at Zoe with affectionate eyes and gently caressed her cheek. "You've had a long day today. Are you tired? Do you want to rest for a while?" "Yes, please, Ky. I also want you with me." Kyle lay down with Zoe for a short nap. When she fell asleep, he got up and left the bedroom. Downstairs, Kyle gathered the security team leaders responsible for the villa's safety in the living room. "Starting now, we need to strengthen the villa's patrols, especially the nighttime security. Double the manpower." After arranging the security measures, Kyle went to the monitoring room. The entire villa, except for the bedroom bathrooms, was covered with surveillance cameras, leaving no blind spots to detect any suspicious activities promptly. The villa was like an impregnable fortress; not even a rat could sneak in. After making all the arrangements, Kyle finally felt at ease. … In Richworth. Even though today was Blair's birthday, he, as the birthday boy, personally cooked a sumptuous family dinner. "Daddy, good. Love, Daddy." Little Lemon hugged her daddy and kissed his face, making a heart gesture as Nicki had taught her.
