Krystal squinted, a fierce glint flashing in them as she heard the name “Melvin Thompson.”
“Yes,” Gabby confirmed, handing over the recorded conversations. “These conversations were captured the day
before the two girls were brought here.”
Krystal couldn’t help but snicker. Melvin had called her at that time, promising to bring her two high-quality girls.
Engaged in dubious business, Krystal was cautious in her dealings. Through careful probing, Melvin had revealed
that these two girls were, in fact, Nicholas’ daughter and his own daughter!

a beast!

the girls knocked out and brought here.

It turned out that Melvin had shown him a photo a long time ago!
He was going to extreme lengths to destroy these two girls!
Krystal clenched her hands tightly, furrowing her brows and involuntarily twitching the corners of her mouth.

Meanwhile, back in Centrolis…
A woman covered in bruises struggled to breathe in a dimly lit basement.
Repeatedly, saltwater was poured over her, ripping open her wounds and filling the basement with her agonizing
screams.
Nicholas sat at the center with an icy expression, surrounded by his subordinates, who watched the woman writhe
in pain on the ground with impassive faces.

“Cooperate!” he demanded. “Where did you take the two misses? Tell us!”

gesture, he scattered the beads on the ground, creating a clattering sound.
“I know Melvin promised you rewards for your family,” Nicholas said coldly. “But have you considered that I can find
your family just as easily as I found you? The underworld rules dictate that family should not be implicated, but I’m
breaking that rule today!”
The woman’s teeth clattered slightly as she struggled to lift her head.

“You hurt my daughter first!” he exclaimed through gritted teeth, grinding the sole of his shoe against her face.
“Either tell me the truth, or I’ll make your family tell me!”
