Andrew led Shiloh toward the car, with Michael trailing behind. As they walked, Shiloh turned her head for one last look at the worn–down monastery.”

Her voice was soft as she mumbled, “Perhaps I won’t be coming back here again.”

Andrew chuckled. “If you ever decide to return, I can have the entire place renovated for you. I’ll get a team to rebuild it, plant some trees and flowers, and turn it into a beautiful retreat–maybe even a landmark in Jayrodale.”

Shiloh shook her head. “No need. I have no attachment to this place.”

Michael, unable to hold back his curiosity, blurted, “Mas–h… Shiloh, can you take off your veil?”

He had almost called her “Master” again. That would have arned him another slap for sure.

Shiloh remained indifferent. “No one is allowed to see my face. Especially men. If any man sees my real face, I’ll kill him.”

Michael frowned. “Seriously? Just one look, and you’d kill someone? What are you, the queen of some ancient empire?”

Shiloh cast him a cold glance. “Why don’t you try and find out?”

Michael’s heart skipped a beat. He was tempted–curious to know if she was a breathtaking beauty or just hiding a face not worth showing. In the end, he suppressed the thought–messing with a woman who might actually be insane was not worth the risk.

Andrew pulled open the car door. “Shiloh, get in.”

However, Shiloh did not move. Instead, she spoke calmly. Mr. Lloyd, we might have trouble.”

Andrew raised an eyebrow. Then, following her gaze, he spotted Harvey approaching with the two elder enforcers of the Wellers, their expressions dark and hostile.

“Master Shiloh, I suggest you come with us to the Wellers, Harvey said coldly. “Otherwise, I’d have to use force.”

With a flick of his wrist, the two enforcers spread out, positioning themselves on either side of Andrew, forming a subtle encirclement.
