Koven felt bad about the incident where Charlotte had previously threatened him. Therefore, he definitely would not want to see Charlotte now, especially considering how malicious she could be. He never wanted to get involved with someone like Charlotte again in his life. He really could not believe how ruthless that woman could be.Matthew said. "Alright. Since you feel that way, then you should stay by Lucy's side. And we should try to get Chelsea and Selena to go as well. As for Hugh, you should check your schedule. If you're busy with the company, then stay here for mutual support. "But if you're free, you can come along. If you need to return later, you can. Having Selena and Lucy together makes me feel more at ease."When Matthew started speaking, he initially addressed Koven but then suddenly remembered Hugh and turned to speak to him.Hugh thought about it for a moment and said to all three of them, "I'll check my schedule later. There shouldn't be any problem, so don't
Hudson saw Koven dragging on and said, "Can you speed up your speech? Whatever you've found out, spit it out immediately. Time is tight now. If you don't tell us now, we won't even have time to investigate after arriving in Charleston."Koven looked at them and nodded. "DS Group was founded on December 13th, eight years ago. The company's founder remains hidden. This part is unclear, but there's an old man whose name I don't know and is just referred to as Mr. Zimmer. "I'm not very familiar with this person and haven't found much about him. But the main thing is, I don't know his name. If I knew his name, I might be able to find out more. The information details that Mr. Zimmer is ruthless and shows no emotions toward his subordinates. He's highly astute in business and never allows any issues to arise. He has someone under his command..."At this, everyone saw Koven hesitating and urged him, "Koven, continue speaking! Why did you pause?"Koven's expression stiffened at this mome
After hearing this, Matthew suddenly realized that Charlie's reasoning ability was stronger. Charlie's words were credible, and his logic was flawless. It appeared that Linus had to be Mr. Zimmer's adopted son. He was neither a biological son nor a subordinate, but there was a unique bond between them that drove Linus to devote himself to Mr. Zimmer."Should we go find Linus now and have a talk with him? Linus and Lucy were childhood companions. Linus once mentioned meeting a girl who almost pulled him out of the darkness when he was young. It might be Lucy. "It seems Linus has feelings for Lucy, and they're really profound. I can't believe it's been over 20 years and Linus still remembers her. It's truly remarkable," Koven said, stealing a glance at Matthew after finishing his words, wanting to see Matthew's expression.As soon as he looked over, Matthew's expression was completely cold. He looked like he wanted to tear Linus apart."I suggest we go find Linus first. Considerin
Daniel nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this and then said to her, "Alright, you can go back for now. Avoid any unnecessary accidents, and make sure to persevere. The surveillance device you placed on Koven must not be discovered. Most importantly, you must not let them find any flaws, do you understand?"After nodding, Selena then withdrew.The room suddenly fell silent, leaving only Linus and Daniel in the vast space of the villa. Daniel tapped his cane sternly and said to Linus, "Linus Gusman! I see you're utterly useless to Spades now. As a grown man, you can't even do what Selena did well. "I sent you to get close to Lucy Quinn, but you were discovered so soon. What are you doing? Have you lost all that vigor from before? Could it be... Have you fallen for Lucy? Let me tell you, stop daydreaming. "Lucy already has someone as reliable as Matthew supporting her. And you have nothing now. All you need to do get close to them and achieve our goals. You shouldn't always think
Selena pondered upon hearing this statement, unsure how to respond. After all, she understood deep down that both she and Linus were just pawns of Daniel. Even after years of serving Daniel, he still regarded them with indifference.However, the story Selena fabricated for Lucy and the others did contain some truth. One day seven years ago, she ran into Linus on the street and was immediately attracted to him. Later, she began disrupting Linus' life in various ways. Until one day, she suddenly overheard Linus' conversation and realized he was part of Spades.Selena had heard of Spades before but had never been in contact with them. Later, she forced Linus to tell her everything to understand the situation. It was then that she knew what kind of person Linus was and what he had been through over the years.Later, she and Linus started dating, and their life together was really wonderful at that time. Until one day, Daniel discovered her existence and wanted Linus to kill her. Linus f
"She has Matthew..."Linus chuckled bitterly as he said this."It's okay. If you win her over, everything will turn out fine in the end, no?" Selena suppressed her heartache and said to him.Linus shook his head and looked at her. "That's probably impossible now. If there's a chance, I'll tell Lucy myself.""In that case, you must do your best. Don't hesitate this time. If you hesitate again, you might never have a chance again." Selena looked at Linus through the corners of her eyes.Linus' expression at this moment was extremely complex, causing a pang in Selena's heart. She truly loved Linus, so she did not want to see him sad. For the sake of his happiness, she was willing to sacrifice everything to protect him.She did not know if this kind of love was considered twisted, but she just wanted Linus to be safe for a lifetime. As long as Linus was well, she would be fine. If he was sad, she would feel sad too. Maybe she really did not have any ambitions of her own."Do you sti
"I understand what you mean. Thank you, Linus, for helping me realize so much. These past two years, because of my work with Spades, my heart has gone numb. There's no need to even mention these things." Selena finished speaking and looked at Linus.Linus shook his head and said, "Actually, you're doing quite well. I just don't want you to follow the same old path I did." How he wished he could have a child with Lucy and live a happy life together! However, he was being ambushed by Spades now. He definitely could not abandon other matters to pursue the things he liked, as well as the person he liked. They were merely ideals and dreams in the long stretch of his future life."Don't think too much. Look at the sunset! It's only during this time that we truly have some time to ourselves. All other moments are spent living for others. Let's use this little bit of time to live for ourselves!" Selena said. She then turned to look at Linus before looking up at the sky.A gentle breeze ru
"Alright, alright. Let's stop overthinking for now. Let's first figure out how to resolve this issue!"They must have something important to discuss with you. If you don't want to see them, then just refuse. If you do want to see them, follow my instructions, and there'll be no problem!" Daniel looked at Linus and said to him.Linus pondered for a long time. Thinking that he would have the opportunity to see Lucy, he nodded to signal Daniel to continue. "Mr. Zimmer, go ahead. I'm all ears."Upon hearing this, Daniel laughed twice and said to Linus, "Since you're willing to listen to me, you must remember everything I say next!"Linus nodded in agreement."When they ask you questions, you must deny everything as this concerns the secrets of Spades. I don't want you to accidentally reveal too much information!"Moreover, the first thing they'll ask about is definitely about Spades. If they ask what mission you're currently on, you must tell them that Spades is simply collaborating
