Chapter 1115 The Significance of the Tattoo
It was 4 o’clock in the morning—the time to make a move according to Corey’s command.
Just as the man in black was about to lead the others to come to Emily’s rescue, the reporters started leaving. It had been close to 3 hours, and the reporters had gathered more than enough materials and videos, so they didn’t have to stay there to stream the scene live until the next morning.
The man in black led his men to the rooftop of White Clouds Mansion. The wind was piercing at the rooftop. Emily had already lost her consciousness and had probably passed out.
“What are you waiting for? Quickly, get her down!” the man in black ordered frostily.
Emily’s body was as stiff as a post when the men rescued her. The man in black heaved a sigh of relief when he felt her weak breath at her nose. If it wasn’t that she was still breathing weakly, they would have thought that she had passed away.
“Quickly, bring her back.”
According to Corey’s order, they would be dismissed if Emily died. As such, one could tell that Emily was extremely important to him.
…
In the president suite of White Clouds Mansion, Janet woke up as she felt an increase in the surroundings’ temperature. She wiped off the sweat on her forehead and opened her eyes slowly. Then, she realized the source of the heat was from beside her.
Janet turned around to see Mason, who was sleeping beside her, furrowing his brows deeply while his lips were starting to turn pale. Then, she reached out her hand to feel his forehead.
“Mason!” she bellowed at once.
However, there was no response from Mason.
With her pupils dilated, Janet quickly got up and helped Mason to sit up while the latter moaned. Janet touched his face and panicked. “What happened to you?”
Why does he have a fever all of a sudden? And it seems like he’s suffering from a serious injury.
Without hesitating further, Janet took off Mason’s shirt, hoping that this would help reduce his body temperature. However, she was stunned the moment she took off his shirt.
There was a huge tattoo on Mason’s back. All kinds of animals were surrounding the dragon in the middle, which looked like a king, while the other animals were merely foils.
Without wasting more time, Janet called Sean. “Come over right now.” With that, she hung up immediately.
When Sean arrived at the room, Janet had already applied ointment to Mason’s back while Mason lay on the bed quietly. Even when he was having a fever, his face still looked noble, and his aura was still imposing.
Sean walked up and asked, “How may I help you, Miss Jackson?”
Janet frowned and asked frostily, “What happened to him?”
Looking at Mason who was lying on the bed, Sean pursed his lips and asked without batting an eye, “What do you mean, Miss Jackson?”
“I’m asking you—what’s the tattoo on his back about?”
Hearing that, Sean knew he could not keep it from Janet anymore, so he cleared his throat and replied solemnly, “Just as you’ve seen, the tattoo is a dragon being surrounded by all kinds of animals. The dragon represents the male from the Lowry Family. Every mistress of the Lowry Family must receive this tattoo on the day of engagement. It shows that the mistresses of the Lowry Family are not allowed to betray their husbands at all times. On the other hand, the men from the Lowry Family can only be loyal to their wives.”
Hearing that, Janet finally understood. This tattoo was supposed to be drawn on her, but Mason couldn’t bear to let her undergo such pain, so he endured it on her behalf and tried to keep it from her together with Sean. No wonder he went out in the middle of the night yesterday and came back acting rather weird.
Janet had an indescribable feeling. She pursed her lips and asked, “What’s the difference between this tattoo ink and the ordinary ones?”
From one look, she could already tell that the ink of Mason’s tattoo was different from the usual.
Sean remained silent for a moment and answered in a grave manner, “This ink is much more stimulating than the ordinary inks, so it’s normal that Mr. Lowry would get a fever. This ink that the Lowry Family used can’t be removed from the skin.”
