Chapter 258: The Lioness Tamed: A Promise Fulfilled

Meanwhile, Rio sent a telepathic message to Lia, "Hey, Wifey. I have a question for you. How would you feel if something happened to Lioness?"

Lia's icy voice sounded through Rio's thoughts, laced with coldness and concern, "What are you talking about? Don't play games with me. Helia has been by my side since childhood. She's my sister, and if anything happened to her, it would break my heart. So, why are you asking about her in this way, Husband?"

Despite her previous emotional outburst, Lia's love for Rio shone through her words, making it clear that she couldn't stay mad at him for long.

However, Rio remained silent, his focus solely on the target in front of him.

Helia was in his strong arms and held her tight against him as he sprinted towards their destination. They ran across the desolate landscape, the girl's eyes were fixed on the horizon, trying to spot any sign of the shadow.
