Meanwhile, Sasha had waited for Edmund for a whole day on the mountain.
She had no idea what was going on down there. Ever since she heard from the old monk that Edmund
had headed for the military base, she felt anxious.
She was concerned not only about Edmund’s safety, but also Sebastian’s condition.
To her relief, a car finally appeared on the horizon.
“Devin…”
She stood up immediately and rushed to the entrance.
Edmund stopped his car and was startled to see her. “Why are you here? Were you waiting for me?”
Sasha replied, “Yes. How was it? Did they give you a hard time? And did you see Sebastian at the
hospital? How is he?”
She started peppering him with questions before he could even react.
Edmund got out of the car slowly.
He recalled Devin reminding him to watch over his shoulder for the two women beside him. Sabrina
might not be as sharp, but Sasha was another matter entirely.
The latter had always displayed extraordinary intelligence, especially when Sebastian was not by her
side.
Edmund pursed his lips. “Relax. I’m fine. And I met Sebastian.”
“Really?”

Sasha’s eyes started brimming with tears.
“So… How is he? Is he okay?”
“He’s fine. He’s got Grayson taking care of him, so don’t worry.”
Edmund made a white lie, recalling the pale-looking man with his wrist full of needle holes.
Upon hearing that, Sasha finally let out a sigh of relief.
That’s right. Grayson is with him. Everything should be fine.
As such, Sasha believed him completely.
“Then did he tell you about his plan? What is he going to do next?”
“Plan?”
Edmund was struck dumb by the question.
She’s more difficult to handle compared to Sabrina.
Sebastian chose his words cautiously. “Yes. But he doesn’t want you to get involved too much. The
only thing he wants you to do is to get in touch with the Leonard family as soon as possible. We’re
running out of time to save Grandpa.”
“Is that so? Then I’ll get to it right away!”
At that, Sasha instantly lost all doubts. She became motivated as she felt needed by Sebastian.
This is a mission given to me by Hubby. I will try my very best.
She figured she should contribute since she was a member of the Jadesons after all.
Thus, she turned and went back inside the temple.
Edmund breathed a sigh of relief and followed her.
“So, have they replied after you contacted them yesterday?”
“Yes. Unfortunately, your communicator is too small, so I couldn’t discuss the details with him. It would
be better if we had a computer.”
Sasha walked with a fast pace.
A computer? Will an old temple have such thing?
Edmund seriously doubted it.
Yet, to their surprise, after they inquired the old monk about it, the latter said there was one in the
accounting room.
“Please don’t underestimate this temple. We know how to keep up with the times too. But currently, we
don’t have internet, so the computer is only used for accounting purposes,” the old monk explained
regretfully.
Sasha and Edmund were rendered speechless.
I almost forgot. We can’t even use our phones here. How could there be internet in this temple? All
signals are most probably blocked!
Sasha was beyond disappointed by that.
Just then, Edmund cast a sudden glance at his watch. After pondering for a while, he dismantled the
watch and took out a tiny golden thing from it.

“What’s that?”
“Can’t you tell? It’s gold.”
Edmund widened his eyes while staring at her.
Sasha did not how to react to that.
What is he going to do with it? Isn’t the watch useless without this golden dial plate?
Sasha furrowed her brows, casting him a confused look.
She watched as he took out a cooking pot from the kitchen a moment later. Then, he modified the pot
and turned it into something resembling a dish antenna.
The piece of gold was placed right in the center of the pot.
“Wait here. I’ll find a high-up place to put this communicator. I’m sure I can find a signal somewhere
around here.”
Upon saying that, Edmund walked out with the pot.
Thus, Sasha and Sabrina waited patiently in front of the computer.
Nothing happened after they waited for around half an hour. Sasha ran out of patience as she clicked
at the toolbar on the computer screen. To her surprise, she noticed an unknown wireless connection
signal had appeared.
“Got it! Sab, please go and tell him we’ve got the signal.”
“Okay.”
Sabrina was also beyond delighted as she ran out with her baby in her arms.
That was how they used the most primitive method and successfully connected with the outside world.
