Chapter 1735 Come Back Safe
Jensen deliberately asked Jeremy, âI heard the treasures are hidden in Daemonic Mount. Do you think we can find some of the treasures?â
âI donât think we can find those exquisite items, but itâs possible for us to find some antiques that might fetch a good price.â
Damien rolled his eyes at them. âDream on. Do you really think you can get your hands on those treasures and antiques? I heard evil lurks everywhere in Daemonic Mount, and we might get ourselves hurt. We might even lose our lives if weâre not cautious. There are too many uncertainties.â
Jeremy did not like what Damien said. He let out a sigh. âWhat a party pooper. Initially, we were all excited to go on a treasure hunt at Daemonic Mount, yet you made it sound like weâre making a trip to hell. You and your mouth have put a damper on our excitement.â
âHey, Iâm just telling you the truth. Donât just think of hunting for treasures. Think of your safety and your life!â
âI agree with Damien. Daemonic Mount is not an ordinary place. We ought to be careful,â Darius stated.
âI knew it. I knew youâre with Damien!â
âWeâre in the same team.â
âAs if I care.â
While they were still arguing, Evan, Nicole, and Juan came out to greet them. âYou all have arrived. Letâs depart.â
âOkay!â
When they were about to leave, Joy came downstairs, ran toward Nicole, and gave her a gold lock. âFor you, Mommy.â
Nicole gave Joy a curious look. âIsnât this your lock? Why are you giving it to me?â
âThis lock can protect Mommy when Iâm not around.â
Her explanation rendered Nicole speechless, as she did not know where Joy got the idea from. Nicole patted the back of her head gently and looked into the little girlsâ eyes. âAll right. I will carry it with me wherever I go, and Iâll return it to you when I get home.â
âOkay, Mommy. Be careful.â
âI will.â
Nicole carried Joy in her arms and gave her chubby cheek a kiss. âWait for me to come home.â
âOkay. Daddy, you must come back with Mommy, okay? And also Juan, and also all the mistersâ¦â
âDonât worry. These misters will take good care of your daddy, mommy, and Juan. Weâll come back safely,â Draven promised.
âCome back safe, okay!â
âYou better behave when weâre not around.â Juan pinched her little cheek.
âIâm a good girl. I donât cause trouble.â
Juan could not help but chuckle. This cheeky little girl. Sheâs so good at lying with a straight face. She should become an actress when she grows up.
Joy then waved them goodbye.
With that, the group left Imperial Garden and headed in Daemonic Mountâs direction.
Meanwhile, while Nina was about to leave for work after coming down the stairs, she noticed Maya was walking aimlessly in the living hall. Nina also noticed the conflicted look on Mayaâs face. Whatâs wrong with her?
Maya was actually thinking about Wilbur.
Kyle said the baby Janice is carrying doesnât belong to Wilbur. Yet, Wilbur didnât bother to explain himself. He even chose to continue to support her financially. What is he thinking?
Maya could not understand why he did that.
Nina walked to her and asked, âWhy are you still here? Arenât you supposed to have a meeting with the committee of the food plaza?â
Maya took a glance at the time. âNina, do you think I should accept Wilburâs proposal? Should we work with the person he appointed?â
