CHAPTER 392: CHAPTER 392: WHO EXACTLY IS MR. LANDRY?

May Morgan clasped her fingers awkwardly and said, "After all, we’re already divorced. This trip, I’m just here to help you heal your leg..."

"I understand. Please escort Miss Morgan to the guest room on the second floor for a rest."

Without waiting for May Morgan to finish her explanation, Vincent Vance suddenly ordered the servant in a deep voice.

When May left, she glanced at Vincent. His face was grim, his expression not too pleasant, and her heart couldn’t help but feel a pang.

She also wished to sleep in the same bed with him, but she had the most basic morals and bottom line. She was now Victor Grant’s wife; although they hadn’t held a wedding, the certificate had been registered. Since she promised Victor to return, she had to uphold the basic boundaries.

After May Morgan went upstairs, Vincent Vance finally gazed deeply at Jacob Jennings with a significant look, gesturing for him to come over and help him up.

Jacob Jennings hurried over, helping Vincent Vance rise from the chair, watching him turn around and step by step walk toward the living room sofa.

"Young Master, is your leg really healed?"

Although Vincent’s movements were still somewhat stiff and uncoordinated, Jacob Jennings understood that it was just discomfort from early recovery and believed he would soon return to normal.

Vincent Vance nodded, speaking indifferently, "Didn’t you see?"

Jacob Jennings sensed his tone was sour, aware that he was angry, and dared not ask further, standing there silently.

But just because he remained silent didn’t mean Vincent Vance would let him off.

"Why didn’t you answer when I called you earlier?"

Jacob Jennings mumbled as he quickly explained to Vincent Vance, "My, my phone broke, and I took it to be repaired."

Vincent slowly turned his head to look at his face, but said nothing, yet the piercing eyes clearly showed distrust.

"Jacob Jennings, you’ve been with me for quite a while; you know my temper."

Jacob Jennings stiffened, knowing he couldn’t hide any longer, and reluctantly sighed, "Young Master, I’m sorry, I did something wrong..."

"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Vincent coldly glanced at him, sternly interrogating.

Jacob Jennings hesitated slightly before explaining to Vincent, "I currently can’t reach Mr. Landry."

What...

Vincent lifted his head and glanced at Jacob Jennings, seeing his solemn face; his heart sank, suddenly sensing something bad might happen.

"What on earth is going on?" Vincent suddenly thought of May Morgan and couldn’t sit still, asking immediately.

How did May know her blood could drive away the insect? Who told her? Was it Mr. Landry? But since he told her about this, why did he vanish into thin air?

Jacob Jennings dared not hide anything from Vincent, so he told him how Mr. Landry awoke the Dragon Insect within May, causing her to have a high fever, and then she recovered completely.

Naturally, before Jacob Jennings met Vincent, he already knew Victor Grant was completely healed and discharged from the hospital. Actually, after hinting to May, Jacob Jennings didn’t really leave but secretly observed Victor Grant’s situation from the shadows. So he was fully aware of Victor suddenly being poisoned and then suddenly recovering completely.

Jacob Jennings was naturally happy to see Young Master rid of the poison, but he was deeply worried because Mr. Landry vanished without a trace after helping May awaken the Dragon Insect, which Jacob Jennings felt was very strange.

He feared for May Morgan, so he hurried and drove to Mr. Landry’s former residence, but found it deserted and abandoned for quite some time.

When he called Mr. Landry’s apprentice, Samuel Zimmerman, no one answered. He mobilized all his resources to search for the two of them, but there was no news, not a single clue until now.

The more he couldn’t find the two of them, the more unsettled he felt. He didn’t know them too well before; only last time when he ordered the fake Star of Extreme Night, he found this miraculous Mr. Landry through acquaintances and crafted a fake ring. Because they clicked well, and Mr. Landry had some talent, Jacob Jennings deliberately approached them, never expecting such an incident to occur now.

Upon hearing Jacob’s explanation, Vincent suddenly punched Jacob in the face, causing his mouth to bleed.

"Bastard, why didn’t you tell me about such a big matter beforehand?"

If Jacob Jennings had discussed with him in advance, Vincent would never have allowed them to torment May. He would rather be paralyzed for life than let May suffer any harm.

Jacob Jennings wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, whispering, "If I told you, would you have agreed to let me do this?"

"Nonsense, of course, I wouldn’t agree!" The thought that May almost got burned by the Dragon Insect’s power to save him made Vincent furious enough to want to shoot Jacob. He angrily pointed at Jacob’s face, threatening, "Jacob Jennings, listen well. If anything happens to May, you’ll accompany her to the grave."

Jacob Jennings knew Vincent’s feelings for May Morgan, so naturally, he dared not say anything. He himself felt heartache for May, seeing her burn with such a high fever made him regret at the time too.

But no matter what, the outcome was good. Young Master’s leg healed, the poison in his body was completely eradicated, and May stood safely in front of them too, didn’t she?

"Young Master, I know you can’t bear to see May suffer, but apart from this method, what else could we have done?"

Jacob Jennings gave Vincent’s legs a meaningful look, softly persuading, "With your legs inconvenient, how will you contend with Victor Grant in the future? Now everything is getting better. Isn’t that cause for joy? Victor Grant and May’s wedding is two days away; you now have full capability to reclaim the woman you love, don’t you?"

"Don’t divert my attention, Jacob Jennings! Like I said, I’d rather suffer than let May be wronged even a bit!"

Vincent’s anger did not dissipate from Jacob’s explanation; instead, it increased. He pointed at Jacob’s face, saying word by word, "The Dragon Insect’s power was just sealed inside May, and it caused her so many frightening changes. Now her Dragon Insect is fully awakened. Do you know what terrifying things might happen next? If that day truly comes, can we alone save anything?"

Vincent’s words reflected Jacob’s worries. The mysterious disappearance of Mr. Landry was already a significant indication of major issues.

He even started suspecting whether Mr. Landry, who suddenly treated them extremely warmly, might have transformed from some people, and his real motive was to harm May?

If his guess was correct, then who could Mr. Landry’s real identity be? Could it be... that old woman?
