Robin's mood was quite pleasant.Serena called his name so casually; could it be that after this incident, they had become true friends?The doctor arrived promptly, removed the bullet from Ida's leg, and carefully dressed the wound.Ida's gaze remained fixed on Robin.Despite his genteel appearance, she could sense that he was a very dangerous person. She was highly sensitive to dark auras."Madam, who is he?" She asked cautiously.Boss had assigned her to protect Madam."He's my friend," Serena replied calmly, relieved to see the doctor finish the treatment."Madam, this is a man's residence after all. We should leave and go to another hotel," Ida suggested.Her wariness of Robin was high, akin to a fierce cat protecting its food.However, as soon as she spoke, thunder roared outside, and heavy rain began to fall."Stay here tonight. I've arranged rooms for you. Neil, take this young lady to rest," Robin said, appearing by their side.Neil, who was standing nearby, quickly approache
The pilot on the helicopter was sweating profusely."Boss, this is the Franklin's territory. Robin took over as the new head a few years ago. He's ruthless and has quickly subdued all the gangs in Havenbrook. If we make enemies tonight, we might not get away."They had come hastily and didn't bring many people with them.They had tracked Serena's phone and knew she was here, but they hadn't expected it to be the territory of the new head of the Franklin Family.Nathan glanced at the message on his phone and quickly spoke, "Boss, Madam and Ida are both fine. They were rescued by the new head of the Franklin Family. He is an old friend of Madam..."As Nathan said this, he noticed Matthew's face darkening.Since when did the head of the Franklin Family know Serena? What had this woman hidden?At the same time, Ida received a call from Jo and learned that the people in the helicopter were Matthew and his group.She hurriedly went upstairs to find Neil."My Boss is here. We won't be stayin
Serena pursed her lips, blinked her slightly bitter eyes, and weariness etched deeper on her face.Matthew only then noticed her hands wrapped in bandages, and his aura became even more intimidating."What happened to your hand?"Ida, furious, interjected, "Boss, that Gloria spilled coffee on Madam's hand, and Madam's hand blistered on the spot."Matthew was even more infuriated.He even laughed in anger. "Your usual aura against others, and now, one Gloria has made you end up like this?!"Although he mocked her verbally, he still took her hand and examined it carefully when she handed it over.Serena pulled her hand back, saying, "It's just a small injury."Ida was even more displeased. "Where is this a small injury? What's worse is that after Gloria spilled coffee, she deliberately wiped away the blisters, intending to leave a scar on Madam's hand."Matthew's eyes turned crimson, and as the head of the Franklin Family, seeing his wife treated this way, he was not only angry but also
This night was destined to be restless.On the other side of Hustleburg, people were tossing and turning, and Gabriel had been following the updates, eager to know if those people had succeeded.However, upon learning that Matthew had rushed to Havenbrook overnight, he knew trouble was brewing.Trying to pull back was already too late; the dispatched individuals were wiped out, not a single one returned.Gabriel was dumbfounded, sitting in a daze on the sofa.These were skilled assassins nurtured by the White Family, and losing ten of them was a significant blow.He had underestimated the influence of Havenbrook's dark forces.Fearing the consequences, the living room door was suddenly kicked open, and Antony walked in."Bang!"A cup was thrown at Gabriel, and the shards cut his cheek."Foolish! Utterly foolish! If Matthew finds out you sent people to chase after his wife, do you think he'll spare our White Family? Matthew has concealed himself in Hustleburg for so many years; his met
Serena had a sound sleep, contrary to her expectations.She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but as soon as her head touched the pillow, she entered a realm of dreams. When she woke up, it was already ten in the morning.Ida had been anxiously waiting outside. The Boss had already left, but Madam was still sleeping, and she wondered how long these two would keep up their silent protest.Hearing movement inside, she excitedly knocked on the door, "Madam, are you awake? We should leave for Hustleburg. Maybe we can catch up with the Boss."Serena responded from inside. After a slow morning routine, she opened the door.Ida, in a state of anxiety, urged, "Let's leave now; perhaps we can still catch up with the Boss."Serena furrowed her brows and lowered Ida's hand. "Ida."The way she called her was very solemn, causing Ida to instantly adopt a serious expression. "Madam, what are your orders?""Did Matthew instruct you to be my bodyguard, or is he also using you to monitor my life?
Infinity Realm headquarters.Gloria's cheek bore the mark of a slap. Returning early, Greg had already guessed that her relationship with Serena had soured and couldn't help but hit her.Feeling somewhat indignant, she dismissed it as insignificant. After all, she was just a woman about to become a secondary wife—why bother caring?As she pondered this, Ella walked in.Ella approached her directly, placing a transfer order on her desk. "This is a direct order from the Boss. You're no longer part of the Legal Department. Head to the administrative department."administrative department?Gloria thought she misheard. A high-achieving graduate from a prestigious school like her was being sent to the administrative department?"Is there some mistake?"Ella sneered, "Whether there's a mistake, you know in your heart. During this business trip with Serena, company matters weren't handled, yet you returned early.""That's
Gloria had initially thought that with her father backing her, she would continue to sail smoothly. However, Greg came over shortly after she settled down."I've found you a new position in another company. You'll start this afternoon. Leave your resignation matter to me."Gloria looked at him in disbelief. "Dad, what are you talking about?"Greg sighed. "Gloria, listen to me. If you wait for Boss to take action personally, it won't be as simple as being dismissed. You, being young and impulsive, how could you seek trouble with Serena? I've told you to be patient, but you refused to listen."Tears welled up in Gloria's eyes, and they began to fall. "That woman deserves it! It's not easy for me to enter Infinity Realm. Why should I leave?!"Greg's expression changed, and he raised his hand to give her another slap. "Stubborn! It's not about whether you want to leave or not. Someone will come to pick you up shortly. If you don't leave, you'll only co
The door to the hospital room was pushed open and Gabriel walked in, his face very unattractive."Give me a cigarette." Jordan closed her eyes and said slowly.Gabriel sat down and without hesitation took a cigarette out of the box and lit it himself.Jordan's gaze was demonic, and at that moment, he weakly exhaled a ring of smoke.Gabriel looked all over his body and knew that he was badly injured, "I told you, it's only a matter of time before something goes wrong."Jordan's fingers holding the cigarette wobbled, a somewhat adorable smile on his face, "What do you know, if it wasn't for my Matthew's mercy, I'm afraid what you'd see would be my dead body."Gabriel stood up alertly and unlocked the door, turning to look at him with a frown, "Did Matthew do this?"He didn't know Matthew very well, only that the man didn't seem all that approachable, but he hadn't expected him to be able to lay such a heavy hand on his cousin."Y
