NovelEnglishChapter 670:
Jareth’s eyes swept over Kellan, recalling the scene at the security checkpoint when this man had caused a fuss.
In his eyes, Kellan was little more than a nuisance, someone easily dismissed. But he had a suspicion that
Verruckt had taken an interest in Alice, which meant Kellan might becan obstacle. So, he needed to find a
way to separate them.
As soon as Allison thought she could leave, Jareth suddenly spoke to the first-floor supervisor. “Mr. Shaw wasn’t
pleased with the cleaning on the first floor today. | want a thorough recheck.”
The supervisor, who had been lingering nearby, stiffened at the mention of Verruckt. His demeanor instantly
shifted from lax to authoritative. Catching sight of Kellan, who had yet to leave, he seized the opportunity.
“You there! You're not going anywhere. Cwithfor a recheck!” he barked.
Most of the cleaning crew had already clocked out, leaving Kellan as the only available person to handle the task.
Kellan had stayed behind to wait for Allison, not expecting to get caught up in this situation.
Annoyed but unable to refuse, Kellan reluctantly released Allison's hand.
“Don’t worry, love. I'll finish up quickly,” he assured her.

ulterior motives. She just couldn't figure out why he seemed so intent on isolating her.
As she stepped out into the night, a sleek black car rolled up smoothly to the curb. The back door opened,
revealing Jareth seated inside, his expression unreadable.
“Alice, may | have a word with you? | can give you a lift home.”
Allison hesitated, weighing her options. A woman alone in a foreign land with no reliable contacts or stable
accommodations wouldn't refuse his offer. If she did, it would raise unnecessary suspicions.
“Then I'll take you up on that,” she replied, slipping into the passenger seat with a well-practiced innocent smile.
“I'm curious, what is it you want to discuss, Mr. Williamson?”
Jareth sighed heavily, shaking his head.
“Alice, that guy you're with, he’s not good enough for you. Honestly, | could keep him tied up at the institute
every night if | wanted. You deserve better.”
Jareth’s tone was oily, layered with hidden intent.
