Chapter 72 Jeremy hadn't explained what had happened over the phone, so when Kelvin walked in and saw the
chaotic scene in the house, he nearly thought he had walked into a robbery. “What's going on here?” he asked,
his breath catching for a mom as he took in the sight. He took a few steps closer, his eyes immediately landing
on the three people sitting on the couch. Jeremy stayed silent, but Yvonne's ears twitched. She was blocked from
view, and just as she was about to say something, a cool, damp hand pressed gently over her mouth-like a little
duckling having her words muttled. Kelvin moved closer, and as soon as he saw the large patches of red on
Charles’s body, his face fell. The blood was so against the pale, fragile figure of Charles, making the impact even
stronger. “Charles,” he said, quickly stepping over to him, his voice suddenly tight with panic. “You're injured.”
Charles's pale lips barely parted as he looked up at him, stiff and uncomfortable. “Dad. I'm fine... He was cut off,
though, by Jeremy's sarcastic interruption. stark “Thank goodness Melissa showed mercy and didn’t finish the job
after pushing Charles down. If she had, we wouldn't even have Charles with us right now. What a great mom,
huh?” It was impossible to miss the biting tone in his words. It sounded as if he were thanking Melissa, Charles
chose to remain silent, not wanting to disturb Jeremy's outburst. Kelvin, who was all too familiar with his family’s
tension, couldn’t help but stiffen. At the mere mention of Melissa's name, his muscles tightened, and something
complicated flickered in his eyes. He glanced at Jeremy's cold expression, feeling a tightness in his chest. Slowly,
his throat constricted, and his voice turned gravelly, like it had been scraped by something bitter. “We'll talk

couldn't say anything. His long lashes lowered, his eyes filled with a quick flash of something like disappointment

“Why are you hesitating? Call your assistant, do your CEO thing, and get Melissa and her vampire family out of

Yvonne, and for the first tin what felt like ages, she was able to see clearly again. She squinted against the
light, shielding her eyes before finally glancing at Kelvin, weakly calling out, “Dad...” Yvonne appeared
unharmed, but her face was deathly pale, and her eyes were red and swollen. Even after the ice compress she
still looked exhausted. “What happened to Yvonne?” Kelvin asked, instinctively feeling a sense of unease. He
rushed over to pick her up. “She saved Charles. Otherwise, he might not have made it, Jeremy quickly explained,
his brows furrowed with concern. “Don’t ask questions right now. Just figure out who can help her.” Kelvin’s face
was still full of confusion. “How did she save him?” “Superpower, Jeremy said flatly, rolling his eyes. “Why do you

Kelvin’s standing in the family to plummet. As he held Yvonne in his arms, he finally walked out of the house, but
not without one last lingering glance at Charles's injuries. As they got into the car, Kelvin told the driver, “Take us
to Honghai Hospital.” This was one of the Adler family’s privately invested hospitals, which had better security in
terms of confidentiality than others. On the ride, Kelvin glanced down at Yvonne, who was curled against him,
clearly drifting into sleep. He whispered her nsofily, getting only a faint response. He pulled out his phone
and sent a message to his assistant, instructing him to prepare a non-disclosure agreement for the doctors at
the hospital. He wasn’t sure if anyone would find out about Yvonne's abilities, but he wanted to be sure the
information stayed locked down.. By the tthey arrived, his assistant was already waiting with the documents.
Kelvin walked quickly toward the imaging department, where Yvonne was to be checked. After the tests, Kelvin
stepped out into the hallway just as the doctors gathered, having just finished their rounds. The assistant handed
each doctor a copy of the non-disclosure agreement. After skimming through the documents, the doctors all
signed, agreeing to keep everything confidential. The imaging room had all the top-of-the-line equipment, and

doctor approached Kelvin, a hint of confusion in his voice. “Mr. Adler, the scans show there’s absolutely nothing
wrong with Yvonne. She's perfectly healthy, even healthier than most kids her age. Kelvin’s grip on Yvonne
tightened, his frustration clear. He held her small face gently, frowning. “Her face is pale as a ghost. and you're
tellingthere’s nothing wrong?” The doctor grew increasingly unsure. Kelvin’s intense gaze made him even
more nervous. The doctor looked at the report again, then slowly backed away. “Mr. Adler, I'll check again.”
Despite reviewing the results over and over, the doctors couldn't find anything unusual. As tpassed, the
unease in the room grew. Finally, one of the doctors spoke up. 2/3 146 Wed, 26 Mar Chapter 72 “Mr. Adler, we've
double-checked everything. There's no problem with Yvonne. Her body's in perfect condition.” Kelvin’s face
darkened as he looked at the doctor. “So, you didn’t find anything?” The doctor hesitated before replying, “No,
Mr. Adler, there's no sign of anything abnormal. Yvonne's health is as it should be for any healthy child.”
Frustrated. Kelvin didn’t waste another moment. He picked up Yvonne and headed straight for the best hospital
in Strate City, the public one where the top medical experts were stationed. Meanwhile, across town, in Serenity
Hospital, Deputy Director Zachary Dudley was laughing as he poured coffee for his guest at a wooden table.
“Taylor, it's been a while since you visited. Have you brought any new research breakthroughs with you?” The
man sipping coffee on the bench, clearly deep in thought, was none other than Taylor-the sone Kelvin had
troubled a few days ago. Taylor's face was filled with complexity, a far cry from the usual self-assured demeanor
of a researcher. He still hadn't told his disciples that he’d taken in a three-year-old girl.
