Jane was appalled. She looked at Mark stiffly. "W-What did you say?""I have the footage of the night this woman snuck into the hotel. She first took down Leonard's men guarding outside the door, then she snuck into the room and killed Claude."Mark grabbed Gwen's face by the chin and forcefully turned her face toward Jane. "She's one of Yvonne's subordinates. Yvonne had gotten her to spy on Leonard and Claude. "Other than that night's footage, you can also check the footage of the roads near the hotel as well as the apartment building opposite Leonard's mansion. She has been staying there this whole time."Gwen's mouth was gagged with a piece of white cloth, so she couldn't speak. But, even if she could, she had no way of explaining herself.This was Mark's setup. She had long fallen for it, yet she hadn't realized it at all.At that moment, she finally understood that Mark hadn't exposed Leonard for his actions because he had wanted to frame her for everything.As for the so-

The metallic smell of blood tinged the air. It immediately aroused everybody's survival instincts.Leonard ordered, "If we don't fight our way out, we'll be dead!"Since one side had started the fight, the other would surely not just sit and do nothing!In an instant, chaos ensued. Bullets rained down, mixed with a cacophony of wails.Stephen protected Yvonne and retreated. Yvonne tried her best to break free. "Curtis and Gwen are still there!""My men will protect them." Stephen protected Yvonne with one hand while holding a gun with the other, forcing the men in black approaching them to step backward.In such a situation, Stephen didn't care about anything else. All that mattered to him was Yvonne's safety.Luckily, Kendrick's men also started taking action. They cooperated with Stephen to take Yvonne to the balcony upstairs. They also took down the sniper, who had been hiding on higher ground.The moment she was upstairs, Kendrick pulled Yvonne over."Do you know how dange

The smoke made everyone's vision blurry. But they could still make out figures moving.Yvonne could barely see Mark. A few men were protecting him and fleeing the scene.No! She couldn't let him get away!Her hand reacted quicker than her brain. She squinted her eyes and aimed at Mark's leg before firing her gun.Mark stumbled, but soon his men surrounded behind him, protecting him from Yvonne.Yvonne could no longer shoot him anymore. She watched them drag Mark away, leaving a long trail of blood.When the smoke had dissipated, Yvonne ordered her men to track Mark down. "I want to see him, dead or alive.""Yes, boss!" Her men quickly ran out of the factory.Yvonne stood in the same spot, looking at the snowy, dark sky sullenly.Stephen wanted to put his hand on her shoulder, but she swerved and avoided him. She cast him a cold gaze.She slowly came to her senses. Her gaze softened. "I'm sorry. I was a little on edge."She had been gone from Emerald Group for many years. She

Cory didn't know what had happened to Mark, nor did he care.He was standing guard outside a room, thinking about the lady he had saved the night before.His right-hand man, Benji Kent, had brought the woman out of the factory. Benji had said that she looked like his late wife and insisted that he look at her.Back then, all he had done was sweep a glance over her, but he could no longer take his eyes off her.In the night, her blood-covered face looked extremely like the first time he had met his wife, Ashley Webb.He had been so excited that he could hardly hold back. He had told Benji to take her to the car. Initially, after he had made sure that the woman was alright, he had wanted to stay back to help Mark.However, he had looked through the binoculars and seen Stephen …As the doctor opened the door, Cory snapped out of his thoughts. He turned to look at the doctor. "How is she?""She's really worked up. I think she has suffered a huge shock. To prevent her wounds from ge

The next morning, Benji put Jane in a car and got the chauffeur to take her to the airport.After waking up the night before, Jane has been in a daze.Benji asked hesitantly, "Can you find your way home?"Jane looked at Benji in a daze for quite a while before nodding gently.She had to quickly understand what was going on with Claude and Emerald Group.When Benji saw Jane nodding, he took a step back. He was just about to close the car door when Jane reached out to grab him."Can you give me your contact?" Jane asked.Benji was suspicious. "What do you want it for?""If …" Jane asked tentatively, "If I need help, can I come to you?" Although her mind was a mess, from the moment she left the room, she had been secretly observing her surroundings.None of the men there looked like they were good people. They had a murderous look about them. From that alone, Jane could speculate that Benji's boss wasn't any ordinary simpleton.Although she wasn't sure what was going to happen i
