Chapter 135 Not in the Mood
“Madam Ziegler wouldn’t have wanted you to go on a killing spree to avenge her, Caspian.
She was praised and loved for her bravery to help those in need.
“Do you want to ruin her reputation by going out and killing everyone? Do you want her to
be known for having a son who would mercilessly slaughter all those who wronged her?
“We would become enemies if you were to kill my mom, Caspian. We would have to
divorce.”
Willow finally let out everything she had wanted to say.
“Even though my mom’s death was not directly caused by Mrs. Stewart. I still can’t forgive
her for treating my mom like a maid and bullying her the entire time,” answered Caspian.
“It’s true that what she did was wrong. But as long as you spare my mom, I’ll try to
change her
for the better.”
“Sparing her doesn’t mean that I’ll ever forgive her.”
He couldn’t possibly ever forgive Kate for what she had done.
Willow also understood that he would hold onto the grudge for a long time. But for now,
she just wanted him to spare Kate’s life.
“Thank you, Caspian. I was also furious when I learned about all the things she had done
to Madam Ziegler, and I couldn’t accept it either.”
She was glad that the issue didn’t get out of hand. With Caspian’s dedication to revenge,
Kate would’ve been a goner if Willow hadn’t stopped him right here.
“Let’s go to bed, Caspian. It’s just the two of us now. Don’t think about anything else for
now.
Willow tried to change the topic and shift Caspian’s attention away.
He coldly replied, “I don’t have the mood for any of this.”

at
the house.
Willow then moved to face Caspian and stood on her toes to match his height.
Caspian suddenly felt a tinge of sweetness spread across his lips.
Willow had hoped that she could make him forget about seeking revenge for now.
It had been quite some time since they could enjoy the presence of one another, thanks to
all the chaos.
But Caspian wasn’t in the mood for any intimacy. He was still furious and couldn’t stop

As Willow tried to go in for a kiss, Caspian gently pushed her away.
Willow was surprised by his rejection. “What’s wrong, Caspian?”
“I’m not in a good mood tonight,” explained Caspian as he turned to leave.
He couldn’t stop thinking about how Kate had bullied Lilith, so he was unable to properly
enjoy having any alone time with Willow.
She could understand why he was furious because Kate’s attitude toward Lilith had been
vile.
She could only hope that this grudge of his would soften over time.
Caspian returned to his room and tossed around in his bed, unable to fall asleep. Images
of Lilith being bullied around the house by Kate would resurface whenever he closed his
eyes.
He felt helpless about the fact that he couldn’t enact his vengeance against his mother–
in–law.
Willow was also unable to fall asleep as Caspian’s sudden shift of attitude gave her too
much of
a shock.
Their relationship had been steadily growing closer and closer, only to be met with an
abrupt stop due to him finding out the truth about Kate.
The next day, the Inspector General’s office received a new letter of appointment
detailing. Joey’s promotion as the new Inspector General.
The entire office was surprised by the news because no one had expected Joey to be
promoted.
The most surprised of all was Neil Banks, the second–in–command in the office. He had
assumed that he would be promoted to Inspector General to replace the deceased Ezekiel.
Even Joey was surprised by the sudden news.
She felt as if she was dreaming, but the details were written clearly without any shadow of
a doubt in the appointment letter.
She suddenly remembered her conversation with Caspian back then and realized that
Caspian. sounded as if he already knew of her promotion.
However, she didn’t realize that Caspian had helped her earn this promotion.
Colleagues within the office came up to Joey to congratulate her for being appointed as
the new Inspector General.
Joey was a person with a great sense of responsibility, and the new position only
strengthened her beliefs. She immediately held a meeting as the new Inspector General to
discuss and deal

She had longed to organize an extensive operation to help resolve the city’s issues, but
she had never had the authority to do so. But now, she was finally given the opportunity
to bring her dreams to reality.
Right after the meeting was over, an officer came to report that Caspian was looking for
her.
Joey was surprised by the sudden visit and instructed the officer to bring him in.

Caspian came into the Inspector General’s office to find Joey sitting at where Ezekiel used
to sit and said, “I knew you would become the new Inspector General.”
“You were right on the money. Is there anything I can help you with today?” asked Joey.
“I want to retrieve the machete.”
The very same machete he had used to kill Dark Blades was seized by the Office of
Inspector General back then.
He wanted to retrieve it, as it once belonged to Lilith.
But Joey swiftly declined his request. “I can’t release the murder weapon back to you.”
Caspian was shocked that she would openly disregard his request without a thought.
“The machete belonged to my mother. It is one of the most important things she has left
behind. I hope you can understand its significance and why I wish to retrieve it.”
Joey seemed concerned. “What if you’re going to murder someone with the machete?”
“Relax. I only wish to bring it home and keep it there.”
Caspian felt slightly betrayed by her attitude after all they had gone through.
“I can’t simply release the machete back to you after I’ve seized it,” answered Joey.
“Are you trying to keep the machete to yourself?”
She argued, “What are you talking about? I have no need for a machete even older than
myself. It’s not even worth selling it for scrap.”
“Joey, don’t you dare try to pawn it off. The machete means more to me than you could
ever imagine!”
The machete was one of the only remaining items from Lilith and held great sentimental
value for Caspian. He had deliberately made the trip to the Inspector General’s office just
so that he could retrieve the machete.
He continued, “I’ve helped you with eradicating hundreds of criminals. All I ask for now is
for you to give me back the machete. I promise you that I’ll properly store the machete in
a safe
+15 BONUS
Caspian couldn’t believe that he was being polite while arguing with someone. He just
wanted to get Lilith’s machete back.
Joey waved he hands and replied, “Alright, fine. That’s enough. I’ll give it back to you.”
