Chapter 624 Grateful

Time- 12:32

Location- Sky Blossom City, Burger empire

”Why would I be afraid? But I, too, am hungry. Since you have stopped at a burger joint anyway, I would like a big mac and large fries.” It was about time for lunch. I did not mind having a meal at the expense of the taxpayers’ money. 

”A Smartmouth, huh. That will definitely make you popular in prison.” Denise retorted as she parked the cop car in front of the Burger Empire joint. 

”Come on, Auntie Denise. Are these cuffs necessary? What’s that matter? Talk to me. You know that the intimidation techniques did not work on me last time, and it will not work on me this time.” I said as Denise got out of the car, seeing that she planned to keep me cooped up in the car while she enjoyed a carb-rich meal. 

”You want to talk? Let’s talk.” Opening the backseat door, she pulled me out and freed my hands from the cuffs. Then I followed her to a table not far from us. And she asked, ” Do you know how I met your mother?” 

”How would I know? I did not know that you were friends with her until you attended her funeral.” I spoke the truth. Mama Wyatt never talked about her social life with Young Wyatt, and he did not come to know about Denise until she attended mama Wyatt’s funeral. 

”You are right. I will not bore you with the details, but all you have to know is that your mother is the reason my daughter is alive and studying at Morningstar university, one of the top ten universities. She saved my daughter from the clutches of the circle. If she had not intervened, when she did, my daughter would be one of the circle’s dogs instead of attending one of the top ten universities.” Police chief Denise answered, saying that if not for mama Wyatt her life and her daughter’s life would differ from the present. She was full of praise for Mama Wyatt. And from her words, one could tell that she was were grateful for what mama Wyatt did for her and her daughter. 

”How can that be possible? I heard that the last person to attend the top 10 universities from sky blossom city is the brother of the sky blossom branch circle’s leader.” I clearly remember hearing that the circle’s Supreme leader was the last person to attend the top 10 universities from Sky blossom city. Therefore I was having a hard time believing Denise’s story. 

”The world doesn’t know what your mother did for my daughter and me that day. That doesn’t mean that your mother did not help me. My daughter and I clearly remember the help she provided to us to this day. I owe her my life. If not for her, my daughter would be leading a gruesome life, and I would be buried 7 feet deep underground.” Even though Denise said that she would not bore me with details, she went ahead and recounted what transpired and how Mama Wyatt risked her and her family to rescue Denise’s daughter’s life. 

Turns out Denise’s daughter awakened a very unique trait as she contracted her grimoire. Somehow, the circle got the news of it and decided to turn Denise’s daughter into one of their own. The Circle’s cruelty is known to all, so how could Denise let her lonely daughter suffer in their hands. Therefore, Denise made a plan to flee sky blossom city and live a life on the run. 

While preparing for her run, one of her trusted friends ratted Denise out to the circle. The circle was very upset by Denise’s audacity to reject their invitation. They planned to kill her and snatch her daughter from over her cold dead body. Coincidently this task was assigned to Clown Mask. 

Fortunately, before the Clown mask would take action, Mama Wyatt came to the rescue of Denise and her daughter like a messiah. Mama Wyatt contacted her old professors at Morningstar university and informed them about Denise’s daughter’s unique trait. The unique trait not only managed to gain the professor’s interest but also the university’s interest too. And in a single night, Denise’s daughter’s existence was erased from the history of sky blossom city. It was as if Denise never had a daughter, to begin with.

”Wait? My friend told me that traits and physique are pretty common. Why did the Morningstar university require you to erase all the information about your daughter?” Anna did assure me that traits and physique are prevalent, and there are many card apprentices with unique traits and physiques in the southern watch. Therefore I did not understand the need for the morningstar university to hide all information regarding Denise’s daughter and erase all her documents. 

”Your mother, too, asked the same question to the people from the MorningStar university, but they did not give her any explanation and asked her not to interfere with the university businesses. Considering your mother’s circumstances, she couldn’t force them to answer. Honestly, at that time, I was worried that my daughter had escaped from the wolf’s mouth and fallen into the tiger’s mouth. 

After leaving for the university, my daughter has contacted me many times. She seemed to be enjoying herself there, so I am less concerned about her now than before.” Police chief Denise, too, did not know why the morningstar university wanted to erase any or all information regarding her daughter. But it seems her daughter has contacted her frequently and assured her not to worry about her. 

”What about the circle? Didn’t the morning star university do anything to them? After all, they know about your daughter’s unique trait.” If the morning star university was so keen on erasing the information about Denise’s daughter, they should have paid a visit to Circle. 

”I don’t know. The whole thing happened so fast that sometimes even I question myself if I ever had a daughter.”
