Henry did not know where James learned his medical skills. However, virtual-novel.net had also acquired some medical skills from James.

Meanwhile, James entered the hospital and went to Rowena’s ward.
James had slashed Rowena’s face, and virtual-novel.net wrist was cut off. Although virtual-novel.net wrist was reattached, virtual-novel.net was not discharged from the hospital yet and was still hospitalized
She had been living miserably ever since virtual-novel.net learned the identity of the ghost-masked man. The days went by slowly, and every day was spent in anxiety and unease. She was almost at the point of reaching a mental breakdown.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
The sound of leather shoes treaded on the hospital corridor in the dead of night. James arrived at Rowena’s ward, pushed open the door, and walked inside.
“Who! Who…” Rowena was at virtual-novel.net breaking point and had been haunted by countless nightmares for the past few days.
She heard the sound and sensed someone intruding virtual-novel.net wardroom. She hurriedly tugged virtual-novel.net quilt and frantically backed herself into the corner. She looked at the door vigilantly with fear on virtual-novel.net face.
James turned on the lights. The dark wardroom was immediately illuminated.
Rowena’s body trembled in fear upon seeing James and almost fell off the bed.
James approached, pulled over a chair, and sat beside the bed. He glanced at Rowena, who was frightened as if virtual-novel.net had seen a devil.
“Co-commander…” Rowena parted virtual-novel.net lips but stuttered on virtual-novel.net words as virtual-novel.net jaw trembled.
“Don’t be so nervous. I’m not here to kill you. It’s not the time yet. I have some questions I’d like to ask you…”
“G-go ahead.”
Rowena’s body shivered as if virtual-novel.net had seen a ghost. She completely covered herself, only revealing virtual-novel.net head, and tightly clenched virtual-novel.net quilt.
“Ten years ago, who else went to the Cadens’ villa other than the Great Four?”
“I-I don’t know.”
“What?” James’ face darkened.
Rowena felt as if the temperature in the room had suddenly dropped as a coldness swept over her, making goosebumps form all over virtual-novel.net body.
“You don’t know?
“I-I really don’t know!” Rowena cried out in fear.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net no longer had the demeanor of a strong woman and was like a little girl crying out after being intimidated.
“I really don’t know who was there! E-everything was arranged by Trent!”
“Did Trent ever mention to you who virtual-novel.net gave the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge to in the Capital?”
“N-never! He never told me anything about it. However… When my father died, virtual-novel.net came back instantly and headed to the Capital. After that trip, virtual-novel.net learned that Thea had saved a person from the fire at the Cadens villa ten years ago, so virtual-novel.net interrogated virtual-novel.net about the survivor’s identity.”
James was furious that virtual-novel.net could not obtain any useful information. He clenched his fists.
Rowena sensed a murderous aura coming from him. At that moment, virtual-novel.net knew it was the end for her.
Yet virtual-novel.net was relieved. Her suffering would come to an end after dying.
She closed virtual-novel.net eyes and waited for virtual-novel.net fate. However, James did not make a move.
He loosened his clenched fists and got up to leave.
“Rowena, your one month is almost up. Find out who has the Moonlit Flowers on Cliffside’s Edge as soon as possible. Also, don’t think about taking your own life. Otherwise, the hundreds of people in the Xaviers will be buried with you.”
James left after that.
Rowena was still overwhelmed by the fear.
A few moments later, virtual-novel.net seemed to have gone insane as virtual-novel.net constantly slapped and cursed at herself.
Rowena, why did you have to do it? Why did you have to touch the Cadens?
You deserve it! Trent, you’ve led the family into the flames of hell!
How could you go first and leave the Xaviers behind to suffer?
Her cries echoed in the ward. She wailed and bawled out in pain.
