Danger is slowly approaching. Therefore, Evie’s safety depends on me.
However, there’s not much I can do.
Even an honorable man like my godfather had also given in in exchange to protect his family.
It further proves how powerful the mysterious force is!
And it won’t be a force that I can’t handle on my own…
It seems like Jerry’s right – he’s probably my only hope now.
Looking at virtual-novel.net perplexed expression, Jerry smiled, “I’ll allow you some time to think about it, but don’t take too long! Actions will be taken soon enough once the assassination order has been announced. I have a flight at 11 p.m. tomorrow, and I’ll leave if you don’t give me an answer by then!”
Zoey and Emma’s heart sank as Jerry left.
It was all part of his plan, by asking Zoey not to give virtual-novel.net an answer on the spot.
Instead, virtual-novel.net gave virtual-novel.net a time limit to consider his offer, which would defeat virtual-novel.net psychological barrier even more.
It had indeed made Zoey even more nervous.
On the other hand, Levi was on his way back to Erudia when virtual-novel.net received news from The Calamity.
“Master, The Dark World has released an assassination order to eliminate your child!”
“The mysterious force claims that your child cannot live!” West Sky Lord told Levi.
Levi’s eyes widened as virtual-novel.net shot virtual-novel.net a cold glance.
Who dares to touch my child?
“Besides, this assassination order was released from Erudia! Therefore, many assassination organizations in Erudia would be going after your child!”
Levi instantly knew the person who framed virtual-novel.net was the same person who had released the assassination order when virtual-novel.net heard those words.
It must be Mr. Finch!
I’m already “dead.” Yet, virtual-novel.net intends to cut weeds and eliminate the roots and not let Evie live.
Well, it was about time I rake this person out! I would like to see the man who forbade my existence.
This was the reason why Levi had the East Sky Lord spread the news of his death. Levi planned to investigate the incident secretly.
He was determined to catch Mr. Finch and his henchmen once and for all!
At the same time, North Hampton was seemingly peaceful, yet a dark force was surging as countless assassination organizations had laid their eyes on the city.
The oppressing atmosphere was so intense that it was suffocating.
Zoey could sense the horror approaching the manor.
Although virtual-novel.net had hired many bodyguards to enhance protection, virtual-novel.net heart was not at peace.
After Jerry left, Zoey had also received news from Tiffany and the rest. They warned virtual-novel.net to stay alert as people from the assassination organizations were going to approach Evie.
As time ticked on, Zoey became more worried.
I can’t care less about anything else except for Evie!
I must protect virtual-novel.net even if it costs my life!
It was nearly 11 p.m.
As much as virtual-novel.net did not trust Jerry, virtual-novel.net was willing to take the risk for Evie’s sake.
Hence, virtual-novel.net contacted Jerry.
“I’ll do whatever you say as long as you can guarantee Evie’s safety!” Zoey had compromised at last.
Soon after that, Jerry arrived and had the same smile plastered on his face, “Although the assassins are already here, there were only a few top-notch assassins like Bloodleaf, the Dark Lord, and Slayer. I could take care of them… but as for the second batch of assassins…”
After hearing Jerry’s words, Zoey believed him.
I think virtual-novel.net really does know everything about the assassin organization.
After all, virtual-novel.net spoke in a very convincing tone.
As a matter of fact, Jerry was the one who had arranged several groups of assassins to go after Evie. Once the time had come, virtual-novel.net would pretend to be a hero to take care of things just as virtual-novel.net planned.
It would deepen the trust between them when Zoey witnessed it before virtual-novel.net eyes.
At the same time, Zoey and Emma had no choice but to go with Jerry’s plan out of desperation.
And that included handing over the authoritative rights to Zoey’s company.
Once virtual-novel.net had power over the company, virtual-novel.net immediately transferred the rights over to himself.
With that, Jerry had taken over the entire Morris Group in half an hour and disappeared in a flash.
When Zoey heard the news, it was like a lightning bolt had struck her, making virtual-novel.net lost for words.
I can’t believe I was scammed!
