Benjamin reached the hilltop before Wendy and her team. He handed the rescued hostages over to Abraham.They were helped onto stretchers and lifted into the helicopter. A military doctor in a white coat was waiting at the entrance with a stethoscope hung over his neck.Benjamin said, "Timothy and Steven had been injected with drugs. Timothy is showing signs of addiction. We must set them up for drug rehabilitation once they get back!"There was gloom on Abraham's cold face. "As part of the Summers family, this is their badge of honor. I believe in them. They will snap out of it!""I'm leaving them in your hands. I have to go back and look for Victoria," Benjamin said. Then, he turned and left.He had barely taken a few steps when he saw another group of people walking toward the hilltop. It was Wendy and Yves with a group of women following behind them.Wendy also saw the group of people on the hilltop, and her eyes sparkled. She turned to face the women, who were panting out of
A strong smell of something burning and gunpowder permeated the air in the factory. It was somewhat irritating to the nose.Benjamin retraced his steps along the same path. He also instructed people to search the grove near the mobile wooden house.Since Victoria had said that she was going to see him, he was certain that she would. So, if something happened to her, it had to be on the way to find him.Benjamin's judgment was correct. He soon discovered subtle clues.The yielding earth in the grove had many footprints of various depths and sizes. Benjamin crouched down, carefully examining and identifying them. Then, he closed his eyes. In no time, his mind reconstructed the series of events.When Benjamin opened his eyes, he exuded an eerie chill. Ethan's men gulped nervously before asking, "Mr. Harper, d-did you discover something? It's not Victoria, right?"They knew Ethan would surely go mad if something had happened to Victoria.Benjamin turned around, his gaze dark and
Ashton had shouted at the top of his lungs. Even amidst the chaos of the night, it resonated powerfully. Many of the people present heard it, and they were puzzled. However, when bullets were raining down on them, no one had the time to think about it.Ashton's men followed his orders and charged toward Benjamin. Ethan looked at Benjamin, who was bathed in the glow of the flames. The latter exuded a murderous intent devoid of any warmth. Ethan could not help but feel that something terrible was about to happen.Benjamin skillfully took down Ashton's subordinates, who were armed with heavy weapons. Simultaneously, Wendy, using her right hand to support herself, aimed a gun at Ashton's head."Ashton Jones! You're a scumbag! I'll kill you!"Yves thought about all the innocent girls who had been hurt. At that very moment, he wished he could tear Ashton into pieces.He could not believe Ashton wanted to end Benjamin too. Right then, Yves appeared like a bomb about to detonate.
Ethan could not wait any longer. He immediately called Victoria with the phone with the shattered screen. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. Frustrated, Ethan wanted to throw the phone to the ground again. But this time, he restrained himself."Benjamin, have you called Vicky? Call her!"Benjamin was in a daze. After hearing what Ethan said, he took out his phone in a somewhat robotic manner. Then, with a blank expression, he dialed Victoria's number.The phone kept on ringing. It wasn't switched off, yet no one answered. Benjamin refused to give up and continued calling her. After three or four attempts, everyone could see that something was off with him. Yves wanted to advise Benjamin. However, the former didn't dare speak at all. Finally, just as Yves mustered the courage to approach Benjamin, the latter's expression changed. "Vicky!" Benjamin exclaimed with joy. "Where are you right now?"Ethan, who was unsettled and in low spirits, shuddered upo
Ethan stared at Benjamin. The latter wore a casual outfit instead of a long shirt. At that moment, he fidgeted with the rosary beads on his wrist. Habitually, the corner of his lips curled into a mocking and bloodthirsty smirk. Benjamin exuded a distant and unyielding intent to kill. In an instant, Ethan connected the person in front of him with Lord Phantom of Regalia.However, Regalia had been established for more than a decade. How old was Benjamin at that time? Was he even 20 years old?Ethan found it unbelievable. But thinking of Victoria, he felt it was not entirely unacceptable. After a moment's shock, Ethan was once again worried about Victoria and Sharon. After he parted ways with Victoria, he had gone to find Sharon. However, Sharon was nowhere to be seen among the group of workers.Ethan became extremely impatient and irritable. He could not calm down, so he continued to call Sienna. "If she wanted to answer, she would have picked up the phone by now. Stop cal
Victoria received a large dose of a drug that could induce a state of unconsciousness. Despite that, her mental clarity remained sharp.At that moment, Sienna was under immense pressure. She didn't dare kill Victoria, yet was unwilling to let her go. Victoria looked up at Walter, saying, "Walter, Sienna's emotions have clouded her judgment. You should know what to do."I promise you that nothing will change as long as you hand me over. Ethan and Sienna's marriage is the only thing I don't have a say in."I know you're working with Ashton because of what he has. But that belongs to Ethan. I can persuade him to collaborate with you!"Victoria remained calm and skillfully persuaded Walter. She knew Benjamin had to be anxious. After all, he couldn't even sleep when she wasn't by his side. Victoria did not know how he would cope when he heard that she had died. Since Benjamin's mental state was unstable, he could not withstand stress. Moreover, Sean was not with him. Victoria
Ashton had no choice but to recount the factory's current situation to the person on the other end of the line. When he finished speaking, he immediately expressed his loyalty and explained, "I am where I am today because of your guidance, Ma'am. "I aim to be successful in my career to earn your respect. As for that man, I'll personally bring him in and present him to you."I had the chance earlier, but I was afraid the bullets might hit him or ruin his face. That's why I missed the opportunity. I'll definitely send him to you, Ma'am!""Ashton, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? You expect me to save you now that you're in danger."Ashton felt intense pressure as he listened to the woman's voice. He nervously wiped his sweat away. "Do you have any pictures?" the woman asked."Yes, I'll send them to you."Ever since Ashton learned about this person from Gordon, the former had sent people to follow Benjamin. However, they only managed to snap two photos of Benjami
"Stop it!"Victoria lifted her head to look Ashton in the eyes. Her expression was solemn, her gaze piercing and determined.It was indeed different from the submissive persona she had projected before. At that moment, she exuded a commanding presence. Upon hearing her stern voice, Ashton froze on the spot.Victoria continued, "If you guys have no intention to kill Benjamin and Ethan, then stop hurting us. If you provoke them, even if your rescuer arrives, the days ahead will likely be tough for you. "Ashton, leave a way out for yourself. Given your current situation, you'd better not push things too far!"Ashton stared at Victoria. Under her piercing gaze, he awkwardly withdrew his foot and barked, "Sooner or later, you'll face the consequences!"Ashton was confident that if Benjamin were someone the woman had been looking for, she would never spare Victoria. After all, Benjamin was the woman's man. While he always had women around him, if she were to find out … Suddenly,
