Chapter 488
At Roger’s mansion…
The sound of a cup falling to the floor could be heard from the study. The old man with silver hair had a strong
physique, and his turquoise eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s.
“A bunch of idiots! Have you found out who the hell did it?”
The middle-aged man lowered his head and replied,” Your Highness, we haven’t found out who did it. However, the
way they didn’t leave anyone alive is identical to that person’s from the Metropolis.”
The person from the Metropolis he was talking about was none other than Saydie, Mr. Henry’s subordinate. Saydie
was notorious for her ruthlessness, and Patrick, who was a cruel man himself, was nothing compared to her. After
all, Patrick would still give the person he captured a chance to live, but Saydie was different. She would not let those
who had fallen into her hands live.
Saydie was a notoriously vicious woman in the Metropolis. When Mr. Henry was away, Saydie would take over the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMetropolis. She represented Mr. Henry, and the fact that she had intervened meant that Mr. Henry intended to do
so as well.
Roger clenched his fists tightly, and his veins bulged
out of the back of his hand. “D*mn it! How dare those people from the Metropolis put their nose into the de Arma
family’s affair!? Go check it out immediately! I want to know if the Metropolis is in this or not!”
In the meantime…
Quincy walked into the room with another man. All of the lights in the room were turned off save for the table lamp
next to the computer .Nolan was sitting on a big chair. He was wearing a bathrobe and holding a glass of unfinished
wine with his left hand.
“Mr. Goldmann,” Quincy said, “Someone has gotten rid of Roger’s men that occupied the de Arma family’s
territory.”
Nolan was typing on the keyboard, and he froze when he heard what Quincy said. Half of his face was covered by
the shadow, and Quincy couldn’t read the emotion in his eyes.
He leaned backward and tapped the desk with his finger. “Who did it?”
Quincy looked toward the man beside him, and the man replied, “Judging from the evidence we’ve gathered, it was
done by the people from the Metropolis. Their move was clean, and there were no extra wounds on the bodies. All
of them were killed in one strike.” .
The man pondered for a moment before adding, “I’m guessing that they must’ve ambushed them. There are no
signs of a fight on the scene. They didn’t even get to fire their guns.”
Quincy was taken aback. The people from the Metropolis usually acted openly, so he was surprised to find that they
would resort to ambushing them at night. Besides, he wondered why the Metropolis would launch an attack on
Roger’s men. Was it because of the de Arma family?
He looked at Nolan, but there was no expression on Nolan’s face. He appeared to be locked in his thoughts. After a
short while, he lifted his head and asked, “Who did Mr. Henry send this time?”
The man replied, “It must be Saydie. She’s the most ruthless person in the Metropolis, and I’m sure that she must
be the one who wiped out Roger’s men.”
Quincy had heard of Saydie from the Metropolis. She was known to be a competent woman, and even if Hans, him,
and the Night Banquet members attacked her simultaneously, they might not be able to take her down.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Henry had been a mysterious being, and the fact that he was surrounded by incredible people such as Erwin
and Saydie showed that he was not someone to be trifled with.
Quincy suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, “Saydie is always by Mr. Henry’s side, so why would he
send her to Stoslo? What is the connection between Mr. Henry and the de Arma family?”
When the man heard Quincy’s question, he replied, “Oh yeah, according to the information we received, there is
this one girl, Ms. Alice, in Mr. Henry’s team that went to Stoslo.”
“Alice..
Quincy was stunned and looked toward Nolan.
Nolan’s eyes darkened, and he asked meaningfully,” Has anyone seen her face after she landed at Stoslo?”
The man shook his head and said, “Nope.” :
Nolan narrowed his eyes slightly, but he did not say anything. After a short while, he asked Quincy to take the man
away.
