And she also said that only Lark Mayfield possesses this ability.

Selena Kensington seed to have thought of sothing and turned to Sterling Norwood, "Could it be that the Mayfield family..."

Sterling Norwood’s brows furrowed slightly, "The Mayfield family has no connection with The Godsbane Organization."

The Mayfield family, second only to the Norwood family, is one of the major descendants of Fell Beasts, and they wouldn’t stoop to collude with The Godsbane Organization.

Selena Kensington shook her head slightly, "No, I an, has The Godsbane Organization ever captured mbers of the Mayfield family or learned their abilities..."

"Perhaps I’m overthinking it, after all, there are many people who know hypnosis."

Selena murmured softly.

Sterling Norwood directly took Selena to the training camp.

It was here that Yvonne Norwood’s body was brought.

Following Sterling, Selena entered the white, spire-topped building.

When Selena and Sterling entered, only Dr. Norwood and Sean Norwood were inside.

"Family Head, Madam."

The two greeted Selena and Sterling respectfully.

"How’s the situation?"

Sterling asked casually.

Dr. Norwood picked up the examination report from the side.

"There were no hallucinogens or other ntal drugs in Yvonne’s body, so it’s unlikely she lost control and crashed into the guardrail due to ntal instability."

"Moreover, we found that Yvonne had been receiving several ntal health dications, and according to the previous reports from the sanatorium, Yvonne’s ntal condition had been improving, with no signs of her second personality resurfacing."

"So we initially suspect that sohow, mbers of The Godsbane Organization managed to control her, forcing out her second personality."

Dr. Norwood analyzed.

Yvonne’s second personality doesn’t care about anything and is capable of anything.

"Wasn’t it hypnosis?"

Selena asked, frowning.

Sean explained from the side, "At first, yes, mbers of The Godsbane Organization hypnotized Yvonne, causing her second personality to erge, but after she was taken away, her condition seed more like being controlled."

"Otherwise, she wouldn’t have committed a hit-and-run and then crashed into the guardrail to seek death."

"Moreover, we checked the route she took to the highway, Yvonne was driving with a clear intent towards the highway, there was nothing unusual during the whole process, if she was ntally stable at the ti, she wouldn’t have suddenly done sothing suicidal."

Selena retracted the coldness in her eyes and looked at Sterling, "This situation feels very familiar, doesn’t it?"

Yvonne’s psychological condition was very poor, her ntal defenses had been almost entirely shattered before, if it weren’t for the continuous control with ntal drugs at the sanatorium, she would have collapsed long ago.

That’s why mbers of The Godsbane Organization could so easily control Yvonne.

As for Selena in her past life, her spirit was strong, she had no ntal illnesses, and she was always tied to her inner concerns, so she was able to endure for so long before the destructive desire finally led her to suicide.

Sterling silently took Selena’s hand, as if providing her with a sense of safety.

The warmth spread from her palm, exceptionally warm and secure.

Selena pressed her lips slightly, "I’m fine."

She had long since let go of the past, she just never expected to see such things happen.

She couldn’t help but imagine if, in her past life, she was like Yvonne, her ntal defenses quickly shattered...

Dr. Norwood and Sean exchanged a glance, with so confusion in their eyes.

They didn’t understand what the two were doing.

Sterling looked at Dr. Norwood and Sean, "Bring Annelise Mayfield to the estate."

"Also, let Yvonne’s parents co and take her away."

After all, Yvonne is part of the Norwood family, her parents have the right to decide this matter.

Dr. Norwood and Sean sighed slightly, "Yes."

Though the Norwood family is vast with flourishing branches, losing a younger mber due to unusual circumstances would alert the mbers within the clan.

They might not publicly express their doubts, but they would be more cautious individually.

That’s also why the Norwood family has been able to continue its legacy.

Apart from the protection of the Qiongqi lineage, there’s unity and mutual support among the branch mbers.

They are like individual branches, all connected to sustain the tree.

No doubt, news of Yvonne’s situation will soon reach the ears of the Norwood branch mbers.

This could be considered the first challenge that The Godsbane Organization has issued to the Norwood family.

Afterward, Selena and Sterling returned to the estate.

"Do you also suspect that soone from The Godsbane Organization learned the Mayfield family’s abilities?"

Selena asked.

Sterling’s eyes darkened slightly, "Perhaps they didn’t learn, but directly captured mbers of the Mayfield family for experints..."

Selena couldn’t believe it, "How is that possible?!"

Selena had witnessed the strength of the Mayfield family, and given their status in Westport, how could The Godsbane Organization target them?!

"It’s not impossible. While the Mayfield family has extraordinary abilities, not everyone awakens with powers from birth."

"Still, their bloodline carries the Nine-Tailed Fox, and they can’t stay in Westport forever, the Godsbane could catch them alone at so point..."

Sterling explained, but the more he spoke, the colder his gaze beca.

The Godsbane Organization, even when forced to hide outside the borders, cannot help but reach into The Empire...

Unfortunately, Sterling had been secluded within The Northwood Estate for over a decade, with little knowledge of the outside world.

And perhaps The Godsbane Organization counted on this, which is why they acted so unscrupulously.

Hearing Sterling’s words, Selena was montarily speechless.

Indeed, the Mayfield family couldn’t possibly stay in Westport forever.

Sterling ca over and scooped Selena up in his arms.

The sudden embrace from Sterling interrupted Selena’s thoughts.

She naturally wrapped her arms around Sterling’s neck, giving him a slight glare, "Why did you suddenly pick up?"

Sterling’s lips curved slightly, "It’s ti for your afternoon nap."

"..."

Alright.

Later, Selena allowed Sterling to carry her to the bedroom without protest.

She watched as Sterling laid her gently on the bed, tucked her under the covers, and then prepared to leave.

Selena quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

Sterling paused his steps and crouched down by the bedside.

He reached out to push back a few stray hairs from her ear, "I’m going to hold a family eting."

"Yvonne’s death is only a wake-up call; The Godsbane Organization is targeting everyone in the Norwood family..."

Sterling’s eyes carried a hint of ruthlessness and violence.

When he learned the organization took on such a na, he knew they were definitely targeting the Norwood family.

But he didn’t know when the Norwood family provoked such a mad organization.

Hearing Sterling’s words, Selena gradually relaxed.

"Then go ahead."

Seeing Selena’s obedient deanor, Sterling couldn’t help but smile.

He placed his hand on Selena’s abdon.

With a soft laugh, he said, "I will protect you both."

Selena also gave a gentle laugh, "Yes, I believe you."
