"Check the surveillance. You must find out Ms. Grey's whereabouts," Miranda ordered as she called Silvia.Her face paled when Silvia's number was not in service. She hated to admit it, but Silvia might have tricked her.Her heart sank as her confidence disappeared. She had to think of ways to stop Carl's attack and save the Simmonses from destruction.Miranda contacted Samuel first."Samuel, the Whites' family still has some forces in Zeloth, right? Lend me some of your men. When I manage to get the treasure, I'll give you half of it."Samuel thought about it and told Miranda where his men were. He reminded Miranda to keep her word before hanging up.After calling Samuel, Miranda contacted some savage forces who couldn't compare to Carl's and her men in Zeloth. She quickly gathered many men with average fighting skills to protect the Simmons residence.Miranda waited anxiously for Carl's attack, but there was no sign of Carl after half an hour. Instead, Ethan and the Walkers' bo
"Don't find excuses for your evil acts." Carl stepped back quickly. He ordered Ethan to go back first.Then, his icy gaze looked toward Miranda. "What happened to Nathaniel? Is he dead?""The hell? You're dead!" Miranda spat.She was taken aback when Carl suddenly asked her about Nathaniel. Then, she looked at Silvia as if she realized something. A sad smile appeared on her face."Silvia, I thought you'd at least have a bit of sincerity working with me. But you've set me up from the beginning, right? You also almost killed my son because you wanted the family crest for yourself!""So what if I set you up? Miranda, do you think I owe you an explanation?" Silvia looked at Miranda in disdain."You should've followed my rules the moment you saved me. If just anyone can mess with my rules, my Galactic League wouldn't be as strong as it is today.""So what if you're strong? That man behind you ruined it anyway!" Miranda shouted in jealousy and hatred."Miranda, do you really think th
"You won't, Mr. Walker." Mick smiled a little."If you really wanted to kill my dad, you would've done it long ago, not now. I don't know what deal you want to make with my dad to let him go, but I'm clear about my feelings for Whitney."No matter what you want to do, I won't stop you as long as my dad is safe. In fact, I'll even help you at some point."Mick stared at Carl in determination, which satisfied Carl.Carl nodded and allowed Mick to take Donald away. But Donald must agree to one thing. He must keep track of Silvia's whereabouts. He must also set up some time bombs on Silvia's way to the treasure and kill her.This was what Mick and Donald wanted to do as well.Mick gave a small smile and agreed without hesitation.To assure Carl, he even told Carl that the Browns' bodyguards had been trailing Silvia. There was proof that Silvia might've gone to Lux Voiga to work with the local gang boss there. She wanted to use the gang boss' power to restore her own forces and fight
"Okay, I'll do what you want. But if you want to work with me, I need to see my son recover."After a while of thinking, Miranda's greed won against her suspicions. She decided to take the risk and work with Silvia.Silvia smiled in satisfaction when she heard her reply. She told Miranda what her subordinate looked like and hung up.With Silvia's description, Miranda managed to wait for the person who delivered the antidote.That person looked exactly like Silvia's description, and it was someone she had met before. That person was Carl's senior secretary, whom she had praised—Marilyn.Miranda was surprised, and panic soon followed.Carl wasn't an easy target, and she never succeeded in sending spies into Carl's company.But Silvia did it, and her subordinate was even a spy with an important position in his company.Miranda understood Silvia's capabilities, and she was more cautious of Silvia now."Is your master not coming personally?" Miranda tried to ask.Marilyn's arrival
"Vi, there'll be some point where you can't keep Mick safe. So what if you can protect him now? I have so many men. It's a piece of cake to deal with him."Nathaniel inched closer to Violet, his warm breath blowing at her ear.Violet turned her head away in disgust, but he held her chin forcibly. "Vi, believe me, you don't want to try me."Once he finished speaking, he bent down, getting closer to her."What are you doing?" Violet glared at him."Of course, I'm doing what I want to do." He smiled sinisterly. He leaned toward Violet's fair cheeks, wanting to leave a kiss.But Violet obviously didn't want it. Before he could make his move, she lifted her leg and kicked his lower body."Vi, do you hate me so much?" Nathaniel shouted.Violet was strong and aimed precisely.If it were the usual Nathaniel, he would be happy looking at her reaction.Because it meant Violet could protect herself well from attacks.But when she attacked him, he felt sad.Violet didn't have to worry
The big screen wasn't far from Nathaniel and Violet. The two of them were on the screen. Violet could see herself, with her big belly, and Nathaniel standing happily beside her.He was smiling so happily in satisfaction, as if he was the king of the world when he was by her side.Violet thought of Carl out of the blue. He was thousands of miles away.If he saw what happened today, how would he react?Would he be enraged?Or would he fly here and kill Nathaniel?A faint smile crept on her face when she thought that Carl might see this.He was such a proud person. He would go mad if he saw it, wouldn't he?"Violet, I've loved you for a long, long time. I've loved you for 20 years. That's one-fifth of my whole life."Before the clock strikes at noon, do you promise me to go back to when we were kids? Do you promise me to stare at the beautiful world together in wonder? Do you promise to spend the rest of your life with me?"Nathaniel got down on one knee and stared lovingly at V
"Ray, it's time for you to give our enemy a warning." Carl contacted Ray with a smile.Ray knew it was time to wrap up their plan once he received the call."Yes, Mr. Walker," he answered. He acted according to their plan and caught Marilyn when she was tampering with the company's business.As the board of directors from the Walkers and important people in business and politics were all present, Marilyn was captured immediately. She was sentenced to death for many crimes, including corporate espionage and theft.She was executed at Zeloth's police station immediately.Marilyn was an important subordinate of Silvia's. Her sudden death enraged Silvia. But other than anger, Silvia also felt suspicious.After all, she thought Carl wouldn't be smart enough to notice Marilyn, who had kept her cover well.As for the missing Fiona, they recently found her in a human trafficking den. She was delirious.According to the traffickers, she had been there for some time. So, she couldn't hav
While Silvia was leading the rest of them in front, the assassins followed her from the back.They were experts and hid themselves really well. Silvia sensed she was being trailed, but she didn't find anyone when she turned to look at the back.She felt alarmed by the weird situation. She pretended to be calm and told Miranda that the main entrance was nearby. She said that she had a stomach ache and needed to relieve herself, asking Miranda to go first."Silvia, you're not lying to me, are you?" Miranda was more careful now that she was getting closer to her dream.Silvia had tricked her many times. Miranda learned that to avoid being tricked again, the best way was to follow Silvia closely. No matter what Silvia said, she shouldn't leave her."How would I lie to you? I'm feeling unwell." Silvia frowned, replying to her. She turned and walked toward the back.Miranda didn't believe Silvia to begin with. When she saw Silvia turning around, looking like she was leaving, Miranda or
