Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
Mr. Mullen Sr. was leading the pack, with the rest of the Mullen family following behind. Kisa was
bringing up the rear.
Arthur slowed his pace on purpose to walk alongside Kisa. “Miss, I was right! Gramps just wants you to
see the restricted zone. We’re just tagging along because of you,” he said with a cheeky grin.
Kisa shot him a side-eye. “How do you know that?”
Arthur nodded seriously. “I heard Gramps ask the maids where you were when he just got back. That’s
how I figured it out.”
Kisa frowned. “Really?” she whispered.
“Yep, for real. So, I think Gramps invited you for a special visit. But why would he do that for a stranger
like you?” Arthur scratched his head in confusion.
Kisa’s mind was racing. ‘Why would Mr. Mullen Sr. be so keen on showing me the restricted zone? Is
he setting a trap for me? And if so, could he be the one behind the tea poisoning?
She tried calling Kelvin a few more times, but he still did not pick up. Kisa scowled as she looked
toward the restricted zone up ahead. She could have easily come up with an excuse not to go inside,
but nothing ventured, nothing gained; she knew that if she did not find out the mystery in the restricted
zone, she would never figure out who was hiding in the shadows and trying to harm her.
Kisa followed the group into the arched entrance. She looked around for the bodyguards that Kelvin
had mentioned but did not see any. The other visitors were all craning their necks with curiosity. Not a
single bodyguard had made an appearance. Maybe it was because the person leading them into the
entrance was Mr. Mullen Sr. himself.
Dense trees surrounded the entrance, casting a dark and foreboding shadow on the ground. Kisa
searched the area around the entrance for any hint of the bodyguards but came up empty. Mr. Mullen
Sr. was moving fast, and the Mullen family was not about to fall behind. They were all in a rush to keep
up. Kisa quickly took in the sights of the entrance and hastened to catch up with the group.
After they entered the archway, they walked for about ten minutes. The area they found themselves in
looked no different from the Mullen residence’s back garden, with lush greenery, stone paths, rock
formations, and gazebos. If it was not for the fact that they were visiting a restricted zone, Kisa would
have thought they were just touring the back garden.
The other visitors seemed just as disappointed, having lost their excitement and curiosity from the initial
energy they had when they entered the area. Kisa walked quickly, keeping pace with Mr. Mullen Sr.
“I’ve heard that this restricted zone of yours is used for taking refuge from the heat, but it looks no
different from your back garden to me. And I recall you mentioning something about a treasure being
hidden here. Would you be willing to share a glimpse of that treasure with us all?”
“Any treasures here, Grandpa?” Arthur asked curiously, while the rest of the Mullen family watched on
in silence.
Mrs. Mullen Sr. chuckled, “Treasures? I bet it’s a drop-dead gorgeous woman.” Her laughter was laced
with a hint of sarcasm.
But this remark sparked something in Kisa’s mind.
‘Could it be possible that Sara was hidden away in this restricted zone?
It was a daring thought, and Kisa could not help but be shocked at her own imagination. However, upon
further reflection, it was not entirely impossible. After all, Mr. Mullen Sr.’s animosity with Anthony and
Gilbert hinted he had been after Sara for a long time. And with Sara missing for so many years, it was
within Mr. Mullen Sr.’s capability to keep her locked away secretly.
