You are saying this because you are jealous of my son!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy let out a short, incredulous laugh, as if she had just heard an absurd joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You truly will never understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s mother, feeling cornered, opened her mouth to argue again, but Silas stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, he produced several documents and handed copies to those closest to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People leaned in to read.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasps followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The papers clearly recorded that Jade had attempted to harm Ivy by staging an incident that injured himself as part of the plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The evidence bore official certification, along with Jade’s own signature confirming his actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas then played an audio recording.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s voice echoed unmistakably through the speaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never realized Silas had been cautious enough to record everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s mother trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, it looked like fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in truth, it was the trembling of realization. She now knew her son had indeed been at fault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet instead of accepting it, she clenched her fists stubbornly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what? It was just a small injury! Could she not simply ignore it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy was about to respond, but Silas stepped closer, his gaze sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If someone slapped you right now, would that also count as a small injury?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s mother flared with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He would not dare! I would put him behind bars!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas chuckled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are this upset over a single slap, yet your son nearly caused my wife to fall into a coma for seven days. Do you not feel even a little guilt?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words struck like a hammer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s mother lowered her head, utterly defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Seilas and Ivy clarified the entire situation. The truth spread quickly through the crowd, and condemnation shifted entirely toward Jade and his family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the first time I have seen a thief accuse someone else of stealing,\" someone scoffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others waved dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The moment we saw that woman\" they gestured toward Grace \"we knew this would be trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We do not even know who she is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s mother, hearing that, quickly distanced herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not know her! I have nothing to do with her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With those words, she turned and fled, panic and humiliation chasing her down the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She truly had no idea what to do anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she finally returned home, the silence inside her apartment felt suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sank onto the sofa, staring blankly ahead, her mind racing through desperate possibilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’How can I get my son out? What can I do? Who can I beg?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she was lost in those thoughts, there was a knock on the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Jade’s mother opened the door, she was met by a man whose appearance immediately made her uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore a mask that covered most of his face, a low cap shadowing his forehead, and dark goggles that hid his eyes completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single feature was visible. Even his posture felt deliberately neutral, as if he had practiced standing in a way that revealed nothing about himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was impossible to know who he was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man tilted his head slightly toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have a deal for you. As long as you accept it, I will make sure Jade gets out of jail.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jade’s mother’s breath caught. Her heart began pounding so loudly she could hear it echo in her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... you can really do that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That depends on your choice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hesitation lasted less than a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am ready. Whatever the deal is, I will accept it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I do not care what it costs. I just need my son and husband back.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Raya was carrying out her punishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was, in truth, very simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could not be called lenient, but compared to the severity of her crime, it was far easier than what she had feared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been assigned to clean Ivy’s apartment building for one month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Raya had been tense every moment, expecting Ivy to make things difficult for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She waited for harsh instructions, humiliation, or some hidden trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ivy never did anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gave the order once, then said nothing further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas, however, was not nearly as calm about it. He watched Raya mop the floors with visible dissatisfaction before turning to Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are letting her off too easily. What were you thinking assigning such a punishment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy merely smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is enough for my own satisfaction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas frowned, about to argue further, when Ivy added in a calm, almost casual tone,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I received a very good proposal from your friend. Because of that, I reduced your sister’s punishment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He studied her for a moment, then exhaled, accepting the explanation even if he did not fully understand it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy turned her gaze toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You already mentioned Jade. When are you going to let me meet him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas chuckled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That depends on you. But I should warn you... Jade is very obsessive when it comes to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy waved her hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am already married to an obsessive lover. I do not have space in my life for another obsessive mystery.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas shook his head helplessly and led her toward the detention area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Jade saw the two of them walking in together, fury ignited in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his gaze shifted to Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And everything changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was exactly like the Ivy in his dreams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, something darker surfaced in his expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep, almost frightening obsession flickered across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to reach out, to pull her close, to confirm she was real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he forced himself to stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ivy before him was not the Ivy from his dreams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Ivy looked at him with cold indifference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one in his dreams had looked at him as though he were the most precious gift granted by God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His lips parted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He almost called her ’Layla’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swallowed the name before it escaped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy observed him quietly. He was undeniably handsome, carrying an air that could easily make others feel protective toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>",1029,"2026-06-05T15:12:45.860Z",1,"novelbin.me","95a97e059248eb2505511d9e1d1e6eb71860bcb98588e08cf6326b47c0ad550e","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-515","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-513",706,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-cover.jpg"]
