The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

Hey, guys, it seems that what happened in Twilight Dimness is quite serious, right? Conor asked with feigned curiosity.

A middle-aged man with glasses glanced at Conor and replied in a hushed tone, Youre not from around here, so you might not be aware of the immense influence Twilight Dimness holds.

Its run by powerful, influential figures.

Many secrets start to come out when surveillance footage goes missing.

A young woman said, Yes, I heard someone managed to escape amid the chaos.

Twilight Dimness is notorious for its tight security.

Escaping from there couldnt have been easy.

Conor feigned surprise and raised his eyebrows.

Someone escaped? Will there be a big search? It feels like the tension in the city is escalating.

Nearby, an elderly man sipping his coffee casually said, Young man, Twilight Dimness is a complex entity.

Wed be wise to keep our discussions about it to a minimum to avoid trouble.

Conor nodded, his demeanor unchanged, looked as if nothing had happened.

Sir, youre absolutely right. I was just curious.

Ill leave you be.

With that, he politely excused himself and made his way back to the ward.

Inside the ward, Peterson, overhearing the conversation outside, grew increasingly anxious.

Hannah, Conor, are you involved in this? You both seem troubled.

Hannah gently reassured him by patting his hand and said, Dont worry, Peterson.

Well handle everything.

Just focus on your recovery.

Weve got this covered.

Conor added, Exactly, sir.

Rest easy.

Well take care of everything.

As they spoke, Conors phone vibrated with an incoming call from Bryson.

He glanced at Hannah, answered the call, and stepped outside.noveldrama

Mitchell.

Whats the situation? Conor asked, his voice tinged with nervousness.

On the other end of the line, Bryson spoke in a low, cautious voice.

Im looking for a way to get into Twilight Dimness.

How are things with you and Hannah? Were okay for now.

Rumors have reached the hospital.

It seems last nights events had quite the impact, Conor replied briefly.

He lowered his voice further.

Good thing you didnt call Miss Moore just now.

Bryson, aware that Hannah was visiting Peterson, knew better than to disclose too much.

Their plans must be kept to themselves.

Then hurry. Ill update you immediately if anything changes here, Bryson said before quickly ending the call.

After putting away his phone, Conor returned to the ward and said, Miss Moore, we need to leave now.

Hannah looked at Peterson, who seemed reluctant to see her go but nodded.

You should get on with your work.

Ill be fine.

Hannah gently ruffled Petersons hair.

Ill visit again in a few days.

Take care of yourself.

Peterson looked up and smiled.

I will.

Dont worry about me.

As they left the ward, Hannah walked through the quiet hospital corridor with a heavy heart.

Conor, you mentioned that rumors have spread to the hospital, which could work against us.
