Chapter 326 The Desire to Conquer
After a moment of silence, Kate scratched her hair in frustration and said in a low voice, “Because of her desire to conquer.”
She paused for a
age, surround moment, a cold glint flickering in her eyes. “Erica grew up spoiled from a young
age, surrounded by people who flattered her. Any type of man she desires would knock at her door, all eager to please her.
“Since childhood, she’s been the centre of attention, changing boyfriends as quickly as changing clothes. She might have a lot of admirers, but she’s never encountered a man as cold as Eric.”
Kate’s voice carried a hint of bitterness and resignation.
Eric’s unique temperament ultimately attracted Erica strongly, igniting her desire to conquer.
“Erica has always liked various types of men, and with Eric’s appearance and temperament being top–notch, it naturally attracts her.”
Kate massaged her temples, feeling a headache coming on.
What should I do? My husband is so charming that he attracts the attention of other women wherever he goes!
Edward and the other two fell silent together.
Since arriving in Sagrado, Linus had remained silent, occasionally glancing at Kate’s face.
She didn’t remove her makeup and still wore Viola’s face. Her documents and information had been prepared early on, all swiftly arranged by George.
So now Kate was Viola, a legal and mysterious citizen of Sagrado.
“Linus, what’s wrong?”
Kate noticed Linus‘ distraction and said, “Is something on your mind?” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Linus snapped out of it and quickly shook his head. “No, I was just thinking how amazing your makeup skills have become. I can’t even see your true self anymore.”
Kate couldn’t help but be startled, then said helplessly, “Maybe I have an innate talent for it? I really don’t know.”
Linus didn’t continue the topic and looked away, sighing softly in his heart.
“Has that divine physician you mentioned made any moves? Has there been any news from the surveillance on Saltoban?”
Kate didn’t dwell on Linus‘ unease, assuming her brother was just a bit tired, and didn’t think further in other directions

Chapter 326 The Desire to Conquer
The most important thing now was to rescue Eric as soon as possible.
“That divine physician has already been in contact with Saltoban.”
Edward tapped his fingers on the computer keyboard, then said, “Also, I managed to hack into Erica’s villa network… Hmm, succeeded.
He turned the laptop towards Kate and the others and continued, “There are surveillance cameras installed in Erica’s house, which makes things easier.”
Kate looked at the computer screen in surprise and saw the surveillance footage! It was from inside Erica’s mansion, and there were also external views, faintly showing Eric still by the lake.
She gazed at Eric’s figure through the computer screen with almost greedy longing.
She really wanted to rush into Erica’s villa and bring Eric out, regardless of the consequences, but she couldn’t.
They were now in Sagrado, where they faced many restrictions, and besides, they couldn’t be sure of Eric’s current state. Based on what they heard from Eric’s conversation with Erica earlier, he likely hit his head and had forgotten many things.
It was bad news for them, especially since when Kate and Edward went to him this morning, Eric showed no response to them either.
But that was also good in a way. Erica wouldn’t pay special attention to them, which made it easier for them to act.
