Cedric sounded harmless, but his voice sent chills down everyone's spine.

Seth's subordinates swiftly grabbed their weapons. Their bodies were tense as they fixed their gazes on Cedric, ready to charge at him for a fight at any moment.

Cedric stood alone in a black shirt, similar to Faye's outfit for the day. The difference was he wore a black mask to cover his face.

His eyes emitted a strange glim, and he had a menacing aura.

"Who are you?" Seth calmed down after having a clear look at Cedric. He scanned Cedric from head to toe and sneered. "Do you know where you are?"

Cedric casually shrugged. "I didn't know before, but I do now."

Seth's gaze darkened.

"The answer doesn't matter anymore. After all, this place will disappear soon," Cedric added.

With that, he leaped into action and appeared in front of Seth within a split second.

Seth's eyes widened. It was too late to dodge, and he was sent flying by Cedric's fierce kick. The tremendous force almost shattered his intern

    Faye awoke to the insistent ringtone of her phone, finding it was already 5:00 pm. A series of missed calls greeted her, and she furrowed her brows. How did she sleep so deeply?"Charles?" Faye answered the phone, her voice returning to its usual indifferent tone."Boss, s-something happened!" Charles sounded deeply shocked."What happened?" Faye frowned."S-Seth's hideout in Pembrook got burned down! When I arrived at the location you sent me, the place was already engulfed in flames! "Due to its remote location, the fire couldn't be extinguished in time. When the fire department arrived, the entire villa was reduced to ashes. There was nothing left!" Charles exclaimed. Faye was stunned. She had anticipated something big, but this huge!"And Seth?" Faye inquired."His whereabouts are unknown," Charles replied. "When I arrived, the place was a sea of fire. We had people checking the surroundings, but no one emerged from inside."Faye's expression darkened. "I see. You

    Christina was tall and strong, almost twice the size of Faye. Christina's expression darkened; she refused to give up, using all her strength. However, instead of dragging Faye away, she was thrown off. She stumbled and hit the wall.Nurses hurried over upon hearing the commotion. They were greeted with the sight of a calm and composed Faye and a disheveled Christina leaning against the wall. They were momentarily puzzled.Faye glanced at the nurses at the door. In a chilling tone, she said to Christina, "As the attending physician, your first duty when a patient is in distress should be to escort the patient's family out, not to bicker with me. Why aren't you focusing on urgent care?"Christina's face slightly darkened; she straightened up and said sternly, "If it weren't for your interference, how could I lose focus?"Faye sneered. "You're a doctor. A split-second decision could mean a life. At times like these, do you have time to argue with me or even fight?""Do you think

    Wennie really admired Faye's direct and commanding demeanor. It wasn't just Faye's remarkable strength that led the security team to follow her, but also her respectable character. Without a word, Wennie proceeded to complete the discharge procedures.The hospital director observed Wennie's immediate compliance with Faye's instructions, then shifted his attention to Faye.Faye carried herself with a composed and commanding presence. The director was certain that she was no ordinary person.It was a well-known fact that Charles was currently leading the security team. In that case, who could this girl be? There had been no mention of a new leader for the security team, and this girl appeared as though she hadn't even graduated from college. It seemed unlikely that she could be a leader.Contemplating this, the director smiled as he said, "Madam, I apologize for the misunderstanding earlier. The patient is severely injured, and his current situation is unstable. Moving the pa

    After leaving the hospital, Faye drove directly to the pier in Wennie's car.It was already past 11 in the evening, with ten or 20 minutes to spare before her cargo's arrival. So far, the goods bound for Pembrook and Jeorgia were secure. Yet, Faye knew this sense of security was fleeting. Despite the advantage of evading machine inspections through water transportation and discreetly moving contents, every maneuver was under the scrutiny of watchful eyes.Recent disruptions by Anastasia had caused shortages in the diamond market, and this particular batch had traveled from the south with an extended stopover in Yamania. It was certain that they would be closely monitored.Faye stretched out her arms as she patiently awaited the approaching ship. At 11:35 pm at night, a luxurious cruise liner emitted a loud roar, gliding toward them on the sea surface.With a yawn, Faye leapt onto a rooftop—observing the approaching vessel. However, as the ship drew nearer, she noticed a surge i

    As the ship docked at Pembrook Pier, a flood of tourists poured out, rapidly transforming the once orderly dock into a scene of chaos.No one knew who spread the rumor that a batch of top-grade diamonds, worth tens of millions, would arrive today. The domestic diamond market was already in turmoil due to an interruption in the supply of top-grade diamonds caused by Anastasia's uncle, the longstanding monopolizer of the market.Originally well-supplied, the domestic diamond market had faced disruption for ten days, leading to widespread speculation. Rumors suggested a scarcity of raw materials caused by an accident at a southern mine. It was said that the mine had been sealed off temporarily due to casualties, prompting a global shutdown and a comprehensive overhaul of safety protocols for all mines.Even the higher-ups were uncertain how long the overhaul would take. The ambiguity surrounding the timeline for this rectification left business tycoons distressed as they grappled w

    The night deepened as the sea breeze howled, tousling Faye's long hair.Cedric was captivated by the sight of this. Moonlight spilled onto Faye's face, accentuating her fair complexion and adding a touch of delicacy. Her laughter, pure yet sly, exuded a lazy charm that increasingly enchanted Cedric.Cedric's face briefly contorted with anger as memories of her previous words resurfaced.He muttered under his breath, "He made the mistake of bullying my wife. What happened before was just a warning ..." His frown deepened as he continued, "I didn't expect him to forget his lesson so quickly, let alone dare to covet my wife's belongings."Amused, Faye teased, "So, how do you plan to deal with him?""Shall I leave him to you, Faye?" Faye snapped her fingers and said, "That's right, just leave it to me."Despite losing the diamonds, Faye seemed unaffected as she was even able to joke about it. A complicated expression formed on Cedric's face and he asked, "What about that box?

    Although Faye's strategy was initially meant to draw attention toward Seth, the attempt to leave the pier with Cedric exposed them to a swarm of pursuers.The allure of diamonds proved irresistible as the information Faye had meticulously disseminated about the precious stones attracted numerous groups vying for control. It was no surprise that Anastasia arrogantly believed Faye couldn't secure such a substantial quantity of top-grade diamonds. With a mere command, her uncle person disrupted the entire market, driving desperate individuals to resort to any means necessary to acquire them.But could he truly ascend to the throne of the diamond world?Faye chuckled, prepared to team up with Cedric against the pursuers. However, Cedric swiftly ushered her into the car."Be good and wait for me in the car, okay? It'll just take a few minutes." Wrapped in the towel she handed him earlier, Cedric's damp clothes outlined his robust physique. At a glance, Faye couldn't help but blush.S

    On the journey to Jeorgia, Faye switched cars three times. Upon reaching the city next to Pembrook, she finally boarded a pre-arranged helicopter, rushing back to Jeorgia.Exhausted from the journey, they arrived in Jeorgia at dawn, a little after five in the morning. Faye, who had barely slept the entire night, had the helicopter land on the rooftop of the Light Moon Designs building.Lincoln and Landon had been waiting there, accompanied by a few bodyguards. Witnessing Faye alight from the vehicle, both approached eagerly with excitement. But before they could even speak, they observed Cedric jumping down after Faye.Lincoln felt as if he had been dealt a blow of ten thousand points. How could she take Cedric along for such an important mission and leave him out of the plan completely? Wasn't he supposed to be her most valued subordinate?Casting Cedric a resentful glance, Lincoln's eyes were practically on the verge of tears. Puzzled, Faye asked, "Did you two not get enough

    Official Hart was well aware that if he indeed went to Pembrook, he couldn't successfully assume the role of the leader without the support of the security team. It wasn't that he underestimated himself, but Pembrook was a peculiar city. Ordinary officials who went there could only be puppets. Even those who thought they had some capabilities, like the previous mayor who attempted to overthrow the security team, faced a tremendously tragic fate. His attempt to gain full control over Pembrook doomed his political career and might even cost him his life. Official Hart didn't want to be a puppet, and he certainly didn't want to lose his life.

    Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.

    Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor. It wasn't until the doctor arrived that Flora found out Clark didn't even

    Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around. Lizzie remained patie

    "Damn it! Damn it! It has to be Faye! This has to be her doing. Damn it!" Tracy pushed everything on the table to the ground. Her face twisted viciously with anger.

At the moment, he didn't need to pay to obtain attention. After Tracy declared her innocence, everyone considered Ethan a jerk who heartlessly searched for an excuse to divorce Monica.

"I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast. She hugged him from behind and said with a smile, "Guess what interesting scene I witnessed last night?"Cedric turned his head to study the triumphant look on her face. He smiled.
