"But tell me this... Father doesn't hesitate to raise taxes, even when it's immoral. So why is me pursuing Ivy illegal in your eyes?"
Frank clenched his fists. "Breaking a marriage is nothing to be proud of," he snapped.
"Even if you somehow convince her, she doesn't love you now. And even if she agrees, what then? How can you guarantee she won't divorce you later, cheat on you, or be taken away by someone else?"
A dangerous gleam flashed in Jade's eyes.
"There has been no one born," he said coldly, "who can take Ivy away from me."
Frank fell silent.
He truly wondered what kind of girl Ivy was to make both Jade and Silas obsess over her so deeply.

She was beautiful, resourceful, intelligent, and strong enough to establish her own base.
She might even possess a power capable of keeping zombies away entirely.
For a brief moment, a strange thought crossed his mind.
