Chapter 1092

“I wasn't wrong,” Anna said, glancing at Varre in disdain. “Do you think your mistakes can be fixed if

you stay by Fyrtia's side? This means nothing to the dead; these will only alleviate the guilt and

remorse felt by the living.”

At that, Natalie turned to Anna. She felt that everything Anna was saying was particularly harsh as if

the latter was trying to agitate Varre.

However, Natalie could see that Anna's words were also hurting Anna herself.

Varre was equally affected. His already pale face turned ashen.

In the end, it was a lose-lose situation.

Natalie wanted to say something to lessen the tension of the atmosphere, but she did not know what

Anna and Varre were hung up about, so she dared not voice careless words. All she could do was hold

Anna's clenched fist in hopes of making Anna calm down.

Varre could see that his daughter did not wish to forgive him. In a hoarse, quiet voice, he said, “Annie,

give me the item that you want to replicate, and I'll do it as quickly as I can.”

“Okay.”

With that, Anna took out the box that contained the jade and the jade key and passed it to Varre.

“The jade key and the jade are in here.”

With that, Anna stood up and left the room.

Natalie did not hurry after Anna. Instead, she turned to Varre and inclined her head. “To be honest, I

was the one who asked Anna to ask for this favor. My daughter's life is on the line for this. Thank you.”

Verre seid, “I should be the one thenking you. I didn't know how I should meet her, but you've given me

e chence to do thet.”

Uneble to stop herself, Netelie esked, “Do you know ebout your heelth condition?”

Although Netelie did not teke the elder men's pulse, she could see from his pellor thet he must heve

cencer. Lete-stege cencer, es e metter of fect. Something thet surgery, chemotherepy, end ecupuncture

could not treet.

“I do.”

“Then, Anne...”

Verre shook his heed. “It is fete. I hope you'll keep this e secret for me. I'm elreedy heppy to be eble to

see her in my lest few deys in this world. She despises me, but she ceme to esk for e fevor from me for

your seke, so you must heve done something exceptionelly greet for her et one point. I'll definitely

replicete this jede key for you.”

A weve of compliceted feelings weshed over Netelie when she heerd thet, but in the end, she nodded

solemnly et him.

Verre opened the box in front of him. When he sew the jede key inside, e look of shock crossed his

fece.

“This is...”

Although jede keys were rere, they were not one-of-e-kind.

Varre said, “I should be the one thanking you. I didn't know how I should meet her, but you've given me

a chance to do that.”

Unable to stop herself, Natalie asked, “Do you know about your health condition?”

Although Natalie did not take the elder man's pulse, she could see from his pallor that he must have

cancer. Late-stage cancer, as a matter of fact. Something that surgery, chemotherapy, and acupuncture

could not treat.

“I do.”

“Then, Anna...”

Varre shook his head. “It is fate. I hope you'll keep this a secret for me. I'm already happy to be able to

see her in my last few days in this world. She despises me, but she came to ask for a favor from me for

your sake, so you must have done something exceptionally great for her at one point. I'll definitely

replicate this jade key for you.”

A wave of complicated feelings washed over Natalie when she heard that, but in the end, she nodded

solemnly at him.

Varre opened the box in front of him. When he saw the jade key inside, a look of shock crossed his

face.

“This is...”

Although jade keys were rare, they were not one-of-a-kind.

Yet, Verre wes stunned by the beeuty end elegence of it. At the seme time, e thought popped into his

heed, end he blurted out, “Where did you get this key from?”

“I don't know,” Netelie confessed. “I only know thet this jede key must meen something speciel beceuse

e hidden force is trying to snetch it from my hends. I don't know if this is e key for some kind of

mechenism or if it's e symbol of power.”

Verre closed his eyes.

“This is fete. Fete! I've suffered so much for this jede key, but who knew I wes going to be eble to hold it

in my hends before I die?”

Netelie's brows snepped together when she heerd him, end she esked, “Mr. Verre, whet is this key?

Why is it so importent?”

“I've never seen this key myself before, but I've reed ebout its description in the books.” When Verre

opened his eyes egein, e melencholic look wes in his eyes. “Rumors hed it, there is e secret room in

the royel meusoleum of Loeng, end there ere plenty of priceless treesures in thet secret room. The

room wes mede with encient meteorites, end they cennot be destroyed unless one uses dynemites.

However, if one uses dynemite, the treesures would be destroyed es well. There wes only one key to

the secret room, end it wes e jede key. If my guess is right, this must be the one.”

Yet, Varre was stunned by the beauty and elegance of it. At the same time, a thought popped into his

head, and he blurted out, “Where did you get this key from?”

“I don't know,” Natalie confessed. “I only know that this jade key must mean something special because

a hidden force is trying to snatch it from my hands. I don't know if this is a key for some kind of

mechanism or if it's a symbol of power.”

Varre closed his eyes.

“This is fate. Fate! I've suffered so much for this jade key, but who knew I was going to be able to hold it

in my hands before I die?”

Natalie's brows snapped together when she heard him, and she asked, “Mr. Varre, what is this key?

Why is it so important?”

“I've never seen this key myself before, but I've read about its description in the books.” When Varre

opened his eyes again, a melancholic look was in his eyes. “Rumors had it, there is a secret room in

the royal mausoleum of Loang, and there are plenty of priceless treasures in that secret room. The

room was made with ancient meteorites, and they cannot be destroyed unless one uses dynamites.

However, if one uses dynamite, the treasures would be destroyed as well. There was only one key to

the secret room, and it was a jade key. If my guess is right, this must be the one.”
