A Cue for Love novel Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122 Back To Her Hand

Meanwhile, Zophie had fainted in a secret prison. Her body was covered in electric burn marks. Gale… In her hazily conscious state, she thought she saw Gale’s face. “Ga…” Her lips moved as she tried to call out his name because she saw him practically right in front of her.

However, no matter how hard she shouted, Gale was getting further and further away from her, so much so that he eventually left her vision entirely.

At the last moment, Zophie abruptly opened her eyes and noticed she was in a dark, damp prison. Both her arms were still bound to the wall with chains as thick as a baby’s arm. Her body was covered in numerous wounds, causing her an immense amount of pain and making her suffer.

“Ga… le…” She tried calling his name again before realizing what she had seen earlier was just a dream. It was then the door, made from a special type of steel, was opened.

A deep voice rang in the room. “It’s time to eat.” Zophie spat out a mixture of blood and saliva before turning her line of sight away from the man in a uniform.

What the soldier removed from his briefcase wasn’t food but a professionally formulated nutrient solution. Every day, she was injected with a dose of nutrient solution to keep her alive.

It had been three days since she was first trapped inside the dark prison. Thus, she was well aware of the nutrient solution’s function. Even though she could feel footsteps approaching her, she remained in a seemingly numb state.

The soldier glanced at the wound-ridden Zophie and smirked. When she felt a chill coming her way, she turned her sight toward him and saw who he was.

It’s him! Mistem! Shock and confusion were seen in her eyes, but they were mostly filled with joy. Since he’s here, does this mean King sent him to rescue me?

She gazed intently at the man, a burning desire to live blazing in her eyes. Sleekly, Mistem jabbed a needle into her arm and injected the liquid into her bloodstream.

“All right.” After the injection was completed, he threw the needle and the injection bottle into a nearby trashcan.

“S-She’s dead!” the soldier exclaimed. “This woman’s dead!” News of her death eventually reached Jerome.

As he stared at Zophie’s corpse in the secret base, his eyes were filled with shock, and his fists tightened. This is Loang’s most secure and secret prison! Yet, Zophie still died under the watch of so many guards. I can’t believe how arrogant and maniacal Blaze is!

“Check everyone who was on the night shift yesterday.” He glanced at the injection spot on Zophie’s arm and ordered coldly, “Also, look into the components of what was injected into her. Inspect everyone who was in charge of the nutrient solution last night.”

“Roger, Major General Sutton!” a soldier next to him replied. Upon leaving the secret prison, Jerome headed to Bastien’s residence. Bastien stared at him and questioned in a frosty tone, “That woman’s dead, Major General Sutton?”

“Yes.” Jerome didn’t even attempt to hide it. “If I’m not mistaken, Blaze was probably the one who killed her to silence her.”

“What a shame…” The edges of Bastien’s lips curved upward a little as his dark eyes glinted. “We didn’t manage to get anything useful out of her before she died. For example, what’s the connection between the jade key and Natalie? How did it find its way back to her hand?”
