The calm and composed man's brows slightly furrowed at Jasper's remark. He didn't reply and silently hoped that Lucille wouldn't show up there.

Jasper burst into a sinister laughter. It echoed through the empty cave, making the already eerie atmosphere even more creepy.

Meanwhile, Lucille and the gang had found their way to Echelon 103's location.

Aware that there might be a tracking device on Angelo's phone, she used a program to mislead Echelon 103, deliberately making them think that Angelo and his gang were still around.

Of course, her opponents weren't stupid. They would definitely find out soon. But it was good enough to stall them even for a while.

Lucille and the gang hid behind a stone wall.

"Ms. Lucy, someone's coming," Jaden whispered.

Lucille looked over and saw a man. "Bring him here. Make sure he's alive."

"Roger," Jaden replied before moving around to the right.

The man in black had come out for a toilet break. Jaden quietly snuck up on him, then qui

    Soon, Jaden successfully snuck in and blended in among the other members of Echelon 103. He was thoroughly impressed when he entered the base, and he couldn't help but feel glad that Lucille and the others hadn't just barged into it. Just the people in front of him now were 20 in number, and each person was armed with an assault rifle. If his gang had barged in without any preparation, they would've had a hard time getting out of here. After all, there was no telling if there were more people hiding in the base whom Jaden couldn't see.Luckily, all of them had half of their faces covered and had similar physiques, so neither Jaden nor any of the other members could recognize each other. "Hey, 082! Where did you go off to for so long?" Jaden heard a hoarse voice coming behind him. He was quick with his wits. He lowered his voice and made up an excuse, "I was pooping." The man in black who'd spoken had the code number 081 on his shirt. He didn't comment any further and remi

    As Beatrice was about to enter the cave, she noticed a black cloth from the corner of her eyes. It had four knots tied to it, alternating between large and small ones. Most people would easily overlook it or wouldn't examine it properly. But not Beatrice. Her eyes immediately lit up as she furrowed her brows. Lucille had left it behind as a message for them. Their cover had been blown!That could only mean one thing—there was a traitor among them. Lucille had already told Beatrice and the others that if they saw a black cloth with very specific knots on it, it'd be a hint from her. Meanwhile, the two children in the cave started panicking when they heard a sound coming from outside. The girl almost cried when she noticed some figures moving at the cave's entrance. The boy covered her mouth and whispered, "Don't cry. They'll find us if they hear us, and then we'll be over." The girl immediately stopped. She curled up her body as she clung tightly to the boy's arm. Meanwhi

    Kent received a call from Flynn. He was more surprised than Flynn had been. For a moment, he even thought he was hallucinating. He could already imagine what would happen when he told Spencer. He was extremely anxious, as though he were standing on the edge of an abyss. "Please wait for me to inform boss. He might have something to say," Kent said. He wisely decided to do that instead of just hanging up the phone. He remained silent as he walked unsteadily toward Spencer. They were in a large open space where a few tents had been pitched around. From this spot, the towering view of the surrounding mountains was unmistakable, as it sat at the forest's highest point, with dense, lush jungles stretching out far below."Sir, Flynn said he ran into Bethany." Kent gulped before continuing with a trembling tone, "A-And Mrs. Layton is here, too." He didn't even dare to look up at Spencer. The three men sitting in a row all had surprised expressions. Spencer's expression was th

    Lucille came to the entrance of a cave. The men in black looked at the hooded Lucille, who seemed to have come out of nowhere. Her head was slightly lowered, obscuring the top half of her face. One of them quickly pointed his gun at Lucille. "Stop right there! Who are you?" He could tell that was a woman based on her physique. As instructed, Lucille stood perfectly still and didn't move. Then, she raised her arms and slowly removed her hood, revealing her fair-skinned face as she glared at the men. The men were stunned by her cold expression. Her sharp, chilling glare instantly made them freeze on the spot. "I'm here to take your lives." Lucille smirked sinisterly as a dagger appeared in her hand before anyone realized it. The men's eyes widened. Just as they were about to shoot, Lucille appeared in front of them and swiftly sliced their necks in one sweeping move. Their eyes remained wide open as they fell to the ground. Suddenly, a rhythmic, slow clap came from the

    Lucille wished she could ignore the maniacal Jasper. Meanwhile, Jasper's subordinates were equally dumbfounded when they heard him. Was Jasper crazy? They felt like the conversation had taken an unexpected and weird turn.Lucille coldly said, "Looks like what happened five years ago didn't leave a mark deep enough in your mind, huh, Jasper?" Otherwise, he wouldn't still be saying such things to her now! But it seemed like she'd underestimated how psychopathic he was. Jasper replied with a smile, "If you can admit that I've always been on your mind, I wouldn't mind letting you ruin the other half of my face." Lucille was at a loss for words when she realized how crazy Jasper was. Octavius, however, was surprised by how obsessive Jasper was with Lucille. It wasn't just a normal obsession—it was almost psychopathic. Lucille rolled her eyes at Jasper. "Jasper, since you've beaten up my people, you'll pay for it!" As soon as she finished talking, she sent her dagger flying

    "How did I trick you exactly?" Lucille responded effortlessly, while managing to sound innocent. "Do you think I'm that stupid to walk right into a trap?" Jasper was speechless. He had underestimated Lucille. He should've known that she never fought an uncertain war. When Ace had whispered to him earlier, he'd informed him that the men stationed in the dark had all been taken out.But that wasn't even the main issue. The real problem was that Lucille had poisoned them and lured a bunch of snakes into the cave. Now, about half of their men were affected. Jasper clenched his jaw and said through gritted teeth, "You've seen him. Give me the Type-K experiment data, and I'll let you go." "I would, but…" Lucille paused as she narrowed her eyes. "But what?" Jasper asked. "Your words are not trustworthy!" She would've lost her mind if she took Jasper's word for it. But Jasper wasn't enraged. His green eyes filled with an indifferent look as he smiled, asking, "Then, what shoul

    Five years ago, Lucille, Riley, and Octavius had gotten in trouble with Echelon 103. Because of her mistake, Jasper managed to kidnap the three of them and take them back to his base.That was when Lucille had discovered what a true psychopath really was. She'd always thought she was cruel. But who would've thought someone could be even more brutal than her, to the point that it was maniacal? She hadn't been able to do anything but watch as Riley suffered inhumane torture in her place, all because of the crazy Jasper. Jasper noticed Lucille slowly turning pale as her eyes became bloodshot. He knew his words had stung her where it hurt most. He then added salt to the injury. "Oh, I forgot to mention Octavius' broken leg." He caressed the right side of his face and smiled smugly. "Well, a life plus a leg for this. I think that's worth it!"Lucille suppressed the fury deep in her heart. At the very least, she managed to maintain her level-headedness. She narrowed her eyes an

    Jasper hadn't expected Lucille to have snipers with her. Not to mention, Elara and Mildred were two of the top-notch snipers, having been through intensive training.As the five men in black neared the edge of the trap, red targeting beams appeared between two of their brows before they collapsed to the ground.The other three realized there were snipers around and quickly raised their guns, randomly shooting in the snipers' direction.The next moment, the two men in black widened their eyes as the realization that they had been targeted sank in, only to collapse the next second. The last man standing turned around to flee the trap. Unfortunately, a bullet flew through his head before he could take more than two steps forward.Elara reported, "Mission accomplished, Ms. Lucy."Despite the successful attack, Lucille found the situation strange because Jasper was nowhere in sight. She narrowed her eyes and instructed, "Move. We have to find Jaden and Otto!"Jasper would never let

    In the bathroom, Lucille was relaxing as she enjoyed the care she was receiving from Spencer. They had seen each other like this for too long, and they had gotten used to it by now. Of course, it had taken her time to get used to it. Every time she was injured, she would end up receiving this treatment, but… While she might have gotten used to it, it was still a kind of punishment for Spencer."Honey, your shirt is wet. Why don't you take it off?"She noticed that half of his black shirt was wet and sticking closely to his body. The wet shirt perfectly outlined his muscular build.She couldn't help but gulp. This was pretty deadly to her too.He was wearing a black shirt with two buttons undone, revealing a glimpse of his collarbone. Coupled with his handsome face, he looked simply irresistible. Her heart couldn't help but race. As he carefully wiped her arm, he avoided the injury on her right hand. It was already torture for him to help her bath. However, when he suddenly he

    "So, you can't blame Eunie for not telling you, and you can't blame us for keeping you in the dark."In other words, Ian had brought it upon himself, and there was no one else to blame but himself.Ian was rendered speechless. He'd never thought that this was how Eunice saw him—a ruthless person who would get rid of his own child.He mocked himself inwardly. He also felt hurt, as if something were stabbing him.After Lucille was done talking, she saw Ian look visibly upset and didn't say anything. So, she whispered to Spencer, "Do you think I went too far with what I said earlier? Can he take it?"Spencer rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry. He can take it. Besides, what you told him is the truth. If he can't handle it, he isn't worthy to be our buddy."Lucille nodded in agreement after she heard that. What Spencer said made sense. She felt at ease after he comforted her.After a while, Ian finally spoke up again. "So, I shouldn't go and look for her?"Lucille was surprised

    "I'm here for you!"Upon hearing that, Lucille was rendered speechless. On second thought, she realized this was fine too.Then, she looked at Spencer and blinked before she said, "Don't leave me. I'm injured right now, so I can't fight him."Ian glowered at her words, feeling at a loss for words. Did he look like someone who would lay a hand on a woman?Spencer looked at her dotingly and responded, "Okay. I won't leave you."Ian was just flabbergasted now."What's the matter, Ian?" With Spencer to back her up, Lucille felt at ease. Even if she hadn't said anything, she knew Spencer wouldn't have left her alone with Ian.Ian suddenly smiled. "It looks like you have quite the luck. The hospital is practically your second home."Lucille was rendered speechless. Then, she smiled and looked at Spencer before she provoked Ian. "My home is wherever my husband is. We're not like some people, for whom having a wife seems to make no difference whatsoever." She'd never lost to anyone b

    Ian turned to look at Lucas. It was obvious that he seemed to be wondering why Lucas had asked that. When Lucas saw Ian's expression, he knew that Ian had never thought about it. In other words, he had no recollection of what he had done and said."I'm going back to be with my wife. You guys just carry on." Spencer stood up and smoothed out the creases on his clothes as he spoke indifferently. After all, it had been a while since he'd left the ward.With that, he strode toward the door without waiting for the others to say anything. Connor was eager to see how things would unfold, so he didn't leave.…Meanwhile, after Beatrice left, Spencer returned to the hospital ward. When Lucille saw him coming in, she asked, "Where have you been?"He took off his coat and put it aside. Then, he walked to the bed and sat down. "I went to investigate some stuff."Lucille figured out what it must have been about and asked, "You went to investigate Alexander and my mom?"Spencer, who wa

    "Ian, what brings you here?" Connor had no idea about Eunice's situation in Arcania, so he was quite surprised when he saw Ian.Although he was surprised, he wasn't blind. He could see that Ian had a hostile air about him.Looking puzzled, Connor glanced at Lucas, who was seated next to him, for an explanation. After all, he knew Spencer wouldn't tell him.After Ian came in, he didn't even bother to sit and directly asked, "Where is she?"Last night, he'd received Lucas' message—the latter had told him that he knew Eunice's location and wanted him to come to Arcania immediately. That was why Ian had rushed to Arcania without any delay.Lucas hadn't told him the exact location. Instead, he'd just told Ian to come to the hospital. Ian had thought that something had happened to Eunice and that she was hospitalized. So, he'd rushed to the hospital as soon as he'd gotten off the plane. However, after he'd come to his senses, he'd gotten someone to check the hospital's patient list.

    Before Beatrice spoke, she looked at the entrance of the hospital ward. After ensuring that no one was coming, she said, "Although we found out that all four of Mr. President's children's last names are Vonridge, they don't seem to be his biological children."Lucille widened her eyes, looking surprised. She cocked an eyebrow and asked, "What did you just say?""They were adopted from the orphanage. Our database has their information, and it's a 100% match," Beatrice replied.Lucille naturally wouldn't doubt that the information in Otearl Alliance's database was incorrect. However, she had never heard anyone mention this before.At the same time, Spencer, who had just left, had gone to investigate something as well.After they'd returned in the afternoon, he'd instructed Kent to conduct an investigation. The news that Kent came back with shocked Spencer to the core.Connor and Lucas were also there. They were in a lounge."Spence, how could Lucille's mom also know Alexander?"

    Diana let out a long sigh. Her words were tinged with helplessness and regret. "This is your aunt. She hasn't appeared for more than 20 years. I never expected her to be gone for this long. There has been no news from her. She must hate me very much."Samantha had no idea what had happened. Her aunt's name and everything related to her had always been taboo in the Crawford family."Is it possible that Ms. Deer is my aunt's child?" Samantha asked.If that was the case, it was quite a coincidence.Diana looked at the photo album in her hands. After a brief silence, she said, "I want to meet her. Don't tell anyone about this for now."Samantha nodded. "Okay."…Meanwhile, in Arcania, Alexander also left the venue after Lucille and the others left.After Alexander left, he immediately had someone to investigate Lucille's past. Back then, after Jane had suddenly left, she had covered all her tracks. No matter how Alexander had searched, he hadn't been able to find her. There hadn't

    When Diana took a closer look, her hands, which had been leisurely tapping on the armrests, suddenly froze.At first, Samantha didn't notice anything unusual about her reaction."Grandma, the best thing I got out of this trip was getting a photo with my idol." She went on and on. "It's the first time I got to see Ms. Deer's real face, and she's very beautiful. No wonder she always wears a veil. Although she looks aloof, I think the way she talks sounds gentle."By the way, she is married. Her real name is Lucille Johnson, and she's from Whiteloop City in Summeria. There was an unexpected incident during the competition, and it was quite despicable. I didn't expect her family to turn out completely different from how I'd imagined them to be."Samantha pouted as she stared at the photo of her and Lucille. She'd always thought that someone outstanding like Lucille would have a perfect family; she hadn't expected things to turn out like that.After the competition had ended, Samantha

    Meanwhile, after Samantha had participated in the perfumery competition, she'd stayed in Whiteloop City for about a week before returning to Crawford Residence in Marvonia.She had been declared the champion of this year's perfumery competition. After she'd returned, she'd chosen to keep a low profile and hadn't celebrated or gone around boasting about it.However, she'd forgotten that Natasha Crawford, her mother, had a strong sense of pride.Since Samantha had been young, she'd had to excel in everything and come in first to meet Natasha's expectations. Only then could Natasha hold her head high and brag about Samantha in front of everyone. At the same time, she could enjoy the flattery from those around her.So, the day after Samantha had returned, Natasha had gathered everyone and thrown a party to celebrate her victory. The room had been filled with people she hadn't known, but they'd all been important figures. That night, after making an appearance, Samantha had left the
