Chapter 228:
Francis eyes widened.His eyes which had turned to blood glared directly into Old Ramons ice-cold dark pupils.There... he did not find any doubt - there was only endless darkness and an overwhelming killing intent. .As if killing was something as common as breathing.As if killing Francis was just like stepping on an ant.Panic began to crawl over Francis body, embracing him in an endless feeling of restlessness.His heart pounded so hard... as if forcing its way out of his chest.His lungs felt increasingly tight, shrinking from the thinning air.He struggled, moving his hands, wanting to claw the old mans face in front of him.A final hope from someone who was so desperate.But it was in vain. Old Ramon had already paralyzed his joints.The pressure was precise...Clearly a professional.Francis was truly helpless now. He felt very desperate now.He was a member of the StormFang clan.A clan so respected, adored, the star in everyones eyes!He was a high ranking official of StormF
Chapter 227:
At the same time... different from where Samantha and Jordan were struggling - a gloomy darkness enveloped a forest on the outskirts of the city.The night wind blew hard... old trees swayed. A rustling sound was heard like the misleading whispers of a demon.The ground there was loose, its smell was distinctive, mixed with leaves rotting by the decomposers.Two figures walked steadily, cutting through the bushes. Both of their steps were heavy, putting pressure on the damp, loose soil.One in front led the way. His face was weathered by age - wrinkled. Old Ramon.Ricky followed behind him, obedient like an ox with a ring in its nose. However, his eyes kept moving alertly, never stopping to check the surroundings.Old Ramons steps stopped... not because the path was getting more slippery - or his eyes were blind in the dark. He saw his foot touch a motionless body.The moonlight shone brightly, piercing through the gaps of sparse leaves, helping them to see the appearance of that unco

The sound of those heavy footsteps grew louder, clashing against the damp and slippery floor. Every step that existed truly made Jordan's heart beat even faster.He glanced toward Samantha, perhaps that woman could even hear the pounding of his heart - which was louder than war drums.Unlike Jordan, Samantha appeared so calm and controlled. She stood up, smoothing her crumpled and dirty clothes - all with movements that were graceful and charismatic.Her entire demeanor was as if she were preparing to enter a congressional meeting room, not about to face a strong guard four to five times larger than her."Don't forget, Jordan," Samantha whispered without bothering to look back. "Once the door opens, I will be the one to take control. You... you only need to wait for the right moment to act. Never hesitate at all - because if you hesitate, our plan will fail."Jordan nodded without speaking much. Although he was trembling and his heart beat faster than anything... he had prepared his m
Chapter 225:
Samantha took a deep breath, staring at the ceiling filled with spiderwebs. "You know, Jordan," she began with a voice that sounded a bit hoarse. "They all think I am a political genius born for politics. They only see me on television, in internet articles, and newspapers. They all think it was my dream since I was a child."Jordan frowned, he reflexively frowned. "Is that not so? I even thought that. You look like you enjoy being part of politics so much."Samantha chuckled softly. Even Jordan thought so. "Actually, I do not like politics very much. A dirty world full of intrigue, sin, and the temptations of the devil. What is interesting about all that? I used to hate the lowly people who sat in government seats, doing various heinous things without guilt."Jordan fell silent hearing that, but secretly he felt interested. "Then why did you do it? Why choose a path that you hate so much? Is it not like you are soaking in mud even though you suffer from mysophobia?""Going back to th
Chapter 224:
The damp room felt increasingly suffocating as time passed. Outside, the moon had already soared high in the sky. Its light pierced through the small cracks of the room. The light was dim yet it was able to show the shadows of two figures inside that place.Jordans eyes never left Samanthas actions and words for even a second. The more he thought, the more impressed he became. That woman, however one might describe it, was truly extraordinary. Not many women could be as steadfast and firm as Samantha in such a complicated situation."You are truly remarkable, Miss Samantha," Jordan whispered.The man could not help but compare Samantha to the women who belonged to the same social circles as them. They were born noble, wealthy, and adored. They might complain and scold others just because of a small mistake. Regarding a kidnapping like this, Jordan worried they might die from being too hysterical.Now Jordan fully understood why a figure like Samantha could become the youngest congress
Chapter 223:
Samantha took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heart.She kept trying to pull the nail from the weathered wood of the table and continued to restrain herself from making much noise. Fortunately after a while, the nail was completely removed.However, Samantha did not immediately breathe a sigh of relief. She moved closer to the door. She pressed her ear against the door, trying to detect the situation out there.From behind the door, the faint sound of heavy and rhythmic boot steps could be heard. Each step carried the same pressure and beat.Samantha snorted softly. She moved her ear away from the door and looked around the dimly lit room.Through a small gap near the ceiling, she could see the shadows of several people pacing outside. They were clearly not people that she, a woman, could take down on her own."This place is very heavily guarded." Samantha whispered to herself.The sound of whispers from outside and the subtle movements there were enough to make the woman rea
