Chapter 558 

The next day arrived. After being informed by Maria that Nash had not left the basement since the day before to eat or drink, Hera felt her heart break. Thus, she was now carrying a meal down to the 

basement for him. 

While she did not understand alchemy, she was certain that Nash’s prolonged work on it must have exhausted him. Not eating all day would have certainly worn his body down. 

When she pushed open the basement door, Hera caught a whiff of a -refreshing herbal aroma. 

She spotted Nash sitting cross-legged on the cold floor with his eye 

closed. 

“Honey?” Hera called out playfully. 

Nash slowly opened his eyes, his bloodshot irises catching Heral 

attention. 

Hera felt her heart seize as she rushed over, her voice trembling.” 

Your… Your eyes…” 

Nash softly smiled. “I’m fine. I just haven’t gotten any sleep for t 

long.” His red eyes were the result of excessive usage of his Th 

Eye, but he brushed it off with a casual excuse to prevent Hera fr 

worrying. 

Hera placed the meal to the side and said in a tone that was filled 

with authority, “Go on. Quickly eat and off to bed you go!”

“Mm, the pill will be done in no time I’ll eat soon,” Nash replied as he 

looked at Hera’s slightly displeased expression. 

Hera sat down next to Nash. She touched his face gently, her eyes. reddening as she said, “Honey, you’re working so hard.” 

Nash grasped her hand and kissed it lightly. “Snatching someone. 

from the gates of hell is no easy task. You go rest. I’m already at the final stage and can’t afford to be distracted,” he replied with a soft 

chuckle. 

Hera leaned over, planted a kiss on Nash’s cheek, and said, “You’d better eat later, or I’ll be really upset!” 

“Yes, my wife!” Nash grinned. 

Hera giggled. “You rascal! I’m off, then!” She wanted to stay with Nash longer but was worried about disturbing him. If her interferenc 

led to the failure of the alchemical process, it could have dire consequences. Hence, Hera left the basement. 

Nash took a Rejuvenation Pill and stoked the flame to the max. A 

peculiar and eerie wave of heat swept over him. The blue 

light in t 

Divine Farmer’s Cauldron began to distort. Just what kind of flan 

was a third-grade pill fire that it seemed to even threaten his soul? 

Nash took a deep breath. He had even considered using his finge 

test out the flame’s power. 

Two ordinary pearl-sized pills were spinning around swiftly in the Divine Farmer’s Cauldron. This tempering stage would take about 

hours. Nash activated his Third Eye to observe the toxins sepa 

within the pills.

Outside the villa, not far away, Sydney gritted her teeth while scanning a code to transfer money to an elderly man. Meanwhile, the said man smiled with satisfaction. 

“If your driving skills aren’t up to par just hire a driver. You’re lucky I’m as fit as a horse. If it were anyone else, they’d be pushing up daisies. by now.” After saying that, he held his hands behind his back and walked away slowly. 

“That old coot! If only I hadn’t hit the brakes earlier!” Sydney fumed 

Hér grandfather’s birthday was in a few days. He initially arranged for someone to deliver an invitation to Nash, but she felt that the core members of the Zell family should be the ones to deliver it personall to show their sincerity. 

Hence, she had personally driven to Royal Bay to hand Nash his invitation. It was indeed quite a show of sincerity. 

She had been driving for a long time without any issues but ended i

However, she had not adhered to the speed limit signs within the 

estate either, so she took the 80,000-dollar fine as a lesson lear 

Sydney returned to the driver’s seat and went on her way, this tim

Meanwhile, Hera was taking Helena out for a walk when she happened to run into Sydney as she was getting out of her car. “Hera, is Nash home?”
