Gu Mengmeng composed herself . She did not wish to cause anxiety to Elvis and Lea . As such, she tried her best to hold back the worry in her eyes . “There is one more thing which I didn’t like . Cole kept talking about replacing you . What did he mean? Did he believe that I will like him if he killed you?”

Lea shook his head . “He wanted to make use of the Fox Seductive Fragrance to bewitch you and transfer your feelings for me onto himself . It means… he would steal our memories and make you believe that you had always loved him . ”

“Fox Seductive Fragrance?” Gu Mengmeng was stunned . “Didn’t you already pluck off his tail at Sauder, and said that he would never give off the Fox Seductive Fragrance anymore?”

Lea pinched Gu Mengmeng’s chin . “Silly girl . The Fox Seductive Fragrance does not need to be Cole’s own . Moreover, even if he still had his tail, his own fragrance cannot steal memories . ”

Gu Mengmeng was totally confused by Lea’s explanation . She always thought the Fox Seductive Fragrance was akin to the kind of medicine in this world used to spice up one’s love life . How could it possess such evil effects?

Lea said, “A male fox’s fragrance exists solely to attract a female, while a female fox’s fragrance… is the truly powerful thing . ”

Gu Mengmeng looked askance at Lea . “So there is a female in Sauder who is together with Cole now?”

Lea nodded, implying that he agreed .

Gu Mengmeng closed her eyes and started to recall all the females in Sauder . But she could not think of anyone particularly suspicious . She looked at Lea again and asked, “Who could it be?”

Lea raised three fingers . “There are only three females in the Snow fox tribe who can emit such a high level Fox Seductive Fragrance . ”

Keeping the first finger, Lea said, “Cole’s former partner, Gillian . ”

He kept the second finger . “My first brother’s missing partner, Lisa . ”

Lea stared at his last finger and suddenly looked very awkward .

Gu Mengmeng didn’t know the reason behind the deep forbearance in his eyes, but didn’t wish to let him brood alone . She gently held his wrist with her free hand . “What’s the matter?”

Lea recollected his senses and took a deep breath . He forced a casual laugh . “Nothing . There is also my father’s concubine, Miranda . ”

Gu Mengmeng was momentarily stunned, as she instantly understood the mortification behind Lea’s forbearance .

She took a breath but didn’t know how to comfort Lea .

Lea tightened his embrace of Gu Mengmeng . Unease and pleading filled his eyes . With a raspy voice, he said, “I didn’t… I really didn’t…”

Gu Mengmeng returned Lea’s hug and gently patted his back with a warm smile . “How could Lord Lea, the most intelligent person in the Beast World, also succumb to a bout of foolishness? Your partner mark is already on my ear . Isn’t that the best proof of your innocence that year? If I didn’t suspect you then, I certainly don’t suspect you now . ”

Lea was taken aback . He suddenly laughed out and rubbed Gu Mengmeng’s left ear gently . His laugh held a hint of the relief that came after a escaping a tight spot . ” My partner mark is on your ear now . I will say the sweetest nothings for you to hear every day . ”

Gu Mengmeng smiled . “But these three females are all missing now . I wonder who is in Cole’s hands, or rather… how many of them?”
