Mu Jingyan arrived with others seeking him out, but there was no one in the villa, only a faint smell of blood.

Aya's gaze hardened as she stepped forward briskly, her eyes falling on the plant leaves nearby.

At that moment, on those originally vibrant green leaves, there were specks of red.

She leaned over to smell them and instantly frowned.

"Mr. Mu, this is blood."

It seemed that someone had already been there before them, and Beverley had likely been taken away.

Mu Jingyan did not speak; instead, he looked around the surroundings.

Aya knew that the situation was not good. Although they had indeed come to settle the score with Beverley, they hadn't intended to take his life.

After all, he was a member of the Royal Family from Y Country. If he were to die in the Imperial Capital, it would lead to an international dispute.

She now only hoped that they had simply captured Beverley and had not actually killed him.
