Levi quietly observes Carlisle and Charles discussing the rescue plan . He has felt overwhelmed to meet his past self . Charles notices him and he then nodded at him . He even strode toward him and introduced himself .
"Charles Montfort," the doctor stretches his hand .
"Edward Moore," Levi took his hand . Secretly, his lips playing an amusing grin .
He felt astounded having this opportunity of talking to himself . . . if only he could tell Charles the truth, but the future has already lingered with the past too much, enough occurrences for them all .
"Then, let us do this all together?"
"We will, Doctor Montfort . But first, we must do something," Levi replied .
"What is it?" curiously, Charles asked
"We must hide our faces, and their uniform must not notice," Levi suggested, pointed at Carlisle's and the soldiers' uniform .
Charles and Carlisle looked at each other . For them, Edward is right, then, Gene burst out .
"That's right! We must act like the ninjas!"
"Ninjas?" confused Charles and Carlisle asked at once, felt intrigued .
"We must cover our faces not to recognize . "
"Hmm . . . sounds interesting," Carlisle murmurs, thinking about the disguises . He glanced at Levi and Charles, then nodded at each other . "We must do it like then . . . " he agreed .
Carlisle ordered three of his men to get some dark clothes . When they came back, they changed their clothes into an all-black to be unnoticed in the dark .
Levi excused himself to fetch someone for more numbers to help . When he came back with a company, they also wearing almost like their disguise .
"Captain Williams, Doctor Montfort, meet Henry Moore our older brother . I called him to help save our sister and Miss Chen . "
"That's good!" Charles said gladly .
"The many, the merrier!" Gene blurts out humorously .
Levi dropped his mouth; Even in his past life, brother Daichi was this enthusiastic… he thought .
Carlisle astounded at Gene's enthusiasm, which Quinn who is familiar with Gene's behavior in his next life, just shaking head and holding himself not chuckle .
Later, they sent Gene to do another observation of how the royal guard does the cycle regarding their watch: where they position, how many guarding the front door, at the back, which rooms have guarded, then the officer stood as the leader of these royal guards .
Gene came back and reported the name of the officer who leads the arrests or kidnaps is correct to name it . Carlisle's face darkened . He becomes known about this man; he works secretly to his mother if she has needed something to get done or to destroy . More likely is to kill . Carlisle clenches his fist .
Delay no more, Carlisle alerted everyone to move . One by one, they put the guards into sleep . With the help of Gene and other soldiers, they successfully took the royal guards and stripped them naked and hid somewhere, tied all over .
They replaced the royal guards and acted as the watch . After then, Carlisle, Charles, Quinn, Levi, and Gene went inside silently .
Like a wind, they swept each room .
"Who are you?" asked the guard who watches the staircase .
Carlisle made a surprise attack and put the guard into sleep after he hit him on the neck . But there is one guard who appeared from behind and about to shoot him . Gladly Quinn saw it . He looks around and searched for a weapon or something he could use, then he found a sword . Using it, he wielded the sword, slicing the rifle . He kicks the royal guard's hand, and the rifle dropped on the floor… and then Quinn kicked out next is the guard's abdomen and punched him on the head . It knocked the guard down to the floor, unconscious .
Carlisle glanced at his direction, nodded at him . "Thanks, Henry . "
Quinn just stays closed his mouth but nodded back . Levi introduce him as a mute since they knew the sign language, they can make them believe it was true and communicate with it . So many acts already . Quinn thoughts .

Meanwhile, in a certain room in the villa, Marivella and Madison kept in the attic . However, loosen from knotting up is Madison's expertise . She's been studying the situation they are into at the moment . Listening carefully to the noises outside and eavesdropping to the guard's conversation; anger surging inside her chest .
They're mouth covered, she can't speak to Marivella . But she noticed she was calm and did not panic ever since when they arrested them . That is why, no matter what, she will protect Marivella because she heard the royal guards talking about how beautiful she is and if they may allow touching her later .
And she won't allow that to happen . She's prepared to kill anyone who will touch her mama . Madison freed her arms from the rope . Marivella looked at her stunningly, asking how she did that . Madison freed her mouth from the cloth that tied to make them silent . She then unties Marivella .
"Carlene, how if?"
"Don't worry . I will find a way we could escape from here," she whispered .
"How?"
Madison looks up . There is a window they could climb up, and so she must reach the top . Madison already checks out the old stuff kept in this room . There are old curtains that could be useful to them .
"Listen, I will climb up there, then drop this curtain, tie it like this in your waist and I will pull you up . She showed it to Marivella how to tie it properly .
"Marivella, make sure not to create any noises when we do it, okay?"
"Okay . . . " she nodded .
"All right, but first we have to secure the door . "
"Huh?" Marivella is clueless . They locked the door from outside, but they must secure from inside, so they can't enter and discover they were escaping . "How can we do that?"
Madison used the ropes and fasten the door handle . After then, she pulls the rope toward each siding of the door and fastens it to the candle holder she found nailed on the door panel . When the guard's attempt to open the door, the rope will hold the door .
When they're done, she tied the curtain around her waist but first; she teaches Marivella how securely ties the curtain on her hips . Then, she prepares to jump the beam in the roof . She took off her shoes . Successfully; she made it quietly . Like a professional gymnast, she kicks her foot and sways her body until she's able to do a motion; pushing her body to stand in the beam using her hands .
Marivella, who watched closely gasped in awe . She thinks Madison's action is amazing .
Now, Madison sits on the beam and gestured at her to tie the curtain on her waist .
After making sure she tied the curtain on her waist correctly, Madison gestures to cover her mouth . She nodded and did cover her mouth . Her eyes open wide when she felt that she rose from the floor .
Madison jumps from the beam to put weight and Marivella ascends . Using her foot, Madison reaches the fabric and tangled it up to stop their speed avoiding Marivella hitting the beam . They've stopped and Marivella wondered . She looks down at Madison . She saw that her foot entwines to the curtain which she thinks holding them both .
Realizing, Marivella quickly reaches the beam to freed Madison from holding their weight… slowly, Madison landed on the floor . She then pulled the curtain to bring Marivella closer to the beam .
Successfully climbing the beam, Marivella sits on it, then untie the curtain on her waist . She dropped it to Madison . Marivella is curious about what Madison will do with it .
Having both ends of the curtains, Madison jumps and rides on it . Using her skills, she ascends on the beam sweat less . Marivella never blinks . She was astounded, which she was like watching someone does an aerial silk dance, similar to the performers in a circus .
'Oh…' she gasps . It is like those in the circus show when a beautiful female like the Trappists .
"Where did you learn that? Are you working in the Circus?" she asked after Madison sat beside her .
"Oh, actually . Just a friend taught me," she lied . But truth is, this was part of her training ever since she was little . Learned how to fight and possessing different skills is Lady Isabella's instruction . The Lady used to tell her that maybe someday, she could use these skills on her missions or job needed to get done .
She never anticipated that she could actually use her abilities to save and protect her mama .
"Oh, wow! You are amazing! I would like my daughter to be like you!" Marivella praises her .
"Ma— Marivella…" teary-eyed, she hugs her .
She held not to cry; if only she could tell Marivella that she is her daughter reincarnate in the future .
"Ahem! Okay, let's go before they notice us . "
She let go of her then stood on the beam… they began crossing it toward the window on the roof . They now successfully get out of the attic .
"Wow . This place was beautiful . " Marivella cannot help to appreciate the view they were seeing from the roof of the Villa . They could see the central city and it is dazzling from the streetlights .
Madison wandered her eyes to the entire city below . "No way!" she burst out .
"Carlene? Is something wrong?" Marivella asked, wondering why she's reacting like that .
"Oh, no . It means the roof has a beautiful view, that's what I mean . " nervously, she laughs . . . she lied once again . But this place is actually the present Montfort Mansion . She could recognize the churches around .
"Hmm… now, how do we— Carlene?" full of worries registered all over her face, Marivella asked her . "Why are you crying?"
