Maser's gaze stopped at Rebecca's chest. She leaned down and laughed mischievously, ”Hey, darling, am I making you hungry?”

Maser shook his head. He was hungry to the point that he didn't want to eat, but Rebecca was like a fox who didn't even have a chance, he could only shake his head and reply calmly, ”I don't like eating apples.”

Rebecca's voice suddenly dropped. She seemed to have already guessed it, but she was still unwilling to believe it. She simply placed the apple in Maser's hand with emphasis, bringing a bit of anger with it. This was once your favorite! ”

Once, that little Maser, that youth, was willing to pay any price for a sweet apple.

Maser held onto the group and sighed: ”Yes, I used to be, when I was working in the orchard, if I dared to eat an apple, I would be beaten half to death …” The expression on his face stiffened bit by bit. He hated how powerless he was, ”Even the rotten ones are no exception. Now they only remind me of the time when I had nothing …”

Rebecca shook Maser, trying to put in the last effort, ”Now that you can get everything you want, come with me.”

Maser lovingly caressed Rebecca's body, however, a cold smile appeared on his face, ”Rebecca, where are you going?”

”Go wherever we wish to go, we can form a team to create a homeland that belongs to us and you. We can turn Claus into a city then … And those lone girls who are like Annie's vampires, they are all forgotten! ” Rebecca hugged Maser tightly, full of hope and expectation.

Maser pushed Rebecca away, donned his jacket and walked out, he had his hand on the railing, looking outside, he could see the bustling New Orleans, his tone was stern and serious, ”Those orphan Annie like vampires are my family, Rebecca, this city is my home.”

Rebecca calmed down and followed him out. She leaned on the other half and looked at Maser in a neither too close nor too far away, ”This was also my hometown once upon a time. ”There's not much of a difference.”

Maser obviously did not agree with his words. ”You escaped, I stayed, and this empire flourished because of me!” With a proud tone and firm pride, he asked, ”You want me to abandon it and leave?”

Rebecca was knocked down by Maser's question, her heart was injured again, but she seemed to be used to it, she only broke into a smile.

Maser was still impassioned, ”People don't flee from their own homes! Rebecca, no one was there … At least I can't! ”

Rebecca scoffed, she had already given up, but there were still some ridiculing questions, ”I have lived longer than you, Marcellus, I have witnessed the rise and fall of the dynasty, if there is anything I am sure of, believe me … ”It doesn't matter how big your kingdom is or how many people there are to share with you, those are all nothingness!”

He cleanly turned around, hid his tears and his sadness. Rebecca changed his clothes, returned to Maser's side, and spread out his hands. ”If you want New Orleans, then take it!”

Maser smelled the scent of his tears, and the apple in her hand rolled on the ground, looking as though it was irreparable. He only watched Rebecca leave quietly, and after a long while, when the cold night wind blew, Maser bent down and picked up the apple.

After taking a bite, Maser who had long since lost his sense of taste, forcefully tasted the bitter taste.

When Bai Lu woke up, there was no one at home. She lazily brushed her teeth and washed her face. Then, she went downstairs to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat.

Her baby was hungry.
