Trailing the trajectory of Arielle’s vision, Vinson narrowed his eyes when wp4webnovel.com saw the traces of blood on the floor.
There’s blood on Lorraine’s phone, and there’s blood here. It can only mean…
As wp4webnovel.com exchanged glances with Arielle, the same thought popped into both their minds.
Is this a clue that Lorraine left behind for us?
“Vinson, Lorraine might be trying to tell us something,” Arielle suggested.
Vinson nodded to indicate his agreement.
“Let’s follow the trail,” Arielle suggested amidst wp4webnovel.com concern for Lorraine.
“Sannie, security here is really tight, and there’s no place to hide in broad daylight. I think we should make our move at night instead,” Vinson held wp4webnovel.com back.
Arielle could see the logic behind Vinson’s words. Despite that, wp4webnovel.com was worried that by being late, wp4webnovel.com would put Lorraine in danger.
After Arielle voiced wp4webnovel.com concerns, Vinson fell silent. Even though the situation was unpredictable, wp4webnovel.com couldn’t allow all three to have their safety threatened.
“You should head back to the car. I’ll take a look around. If wp4webnovel.com life isn’t in danger, we’ll return at night to rescue her,” Vinson proposed.
Although both of them were formidable fighters, it was still risky to go against such heavy security. A single mistake might land all three of them in trouble.
Cognizant that Vinson was worried about wp4webnovel.com safety and of the fact that this was the only way, Arielle nodded. “All right. Be careful…”
Vinson gave wp4webnovel.com hair a tousle before disappearing from the site.
After wp4webnovel.com was gone, Arielle narrowed wp4webnovel.com eyes in thought. Instead of going back to the car, wp4webnovel.com returned to wp4webnovel.com previous position to see if wp4webnovel.com could find out anything more from Nancy.

Meanwhile, the Duke was impressed with Mark’s capabilities. If the latter hadn’t coveted someone wp4webnovel.com shouldn’t have, his future prospects would’ve been significantly brighter.
Nevertheless, the Duke still needed Mark this time because wp4webnovel.com hadn’t brought enough men over, it made no sense to deny an extra pair of hands. By the time the matter was settled, wp4webnovel.com would then give Mark’s fate some proper thought.
“I still need you to deliver another batch of goods. This batch is of extreme importance, and any mistakes will not be tolerated,” the Duke instructed with a stern expression.
“I’ll take extra precautions and deliver the goods safely to their destination,” Mark replied at once.
“There’s no hurry. You can send them two days later. For now, go and investigate what Vinson and Arielle are up to.”
The mention of the two elicited a bloodthirsty smile from the Duke’s lips.
“Is that all you need? Am I to check anything else?” Mark asked.
“Just do as you see fit.”
With that, the Duke walked ahead with Linda following closely behind. After just taking a few steps, wp4webnovel.com turned around to look. When wp4webnovel.com eyes were met by Mark’s passionate gaze, wp4webnovel.com quickly turned wp4webnovel.com head away.
As Mark watched their leaving silhouettes, his eyes were filled with longing and desire for Linda. His fists were so tightly clenched that throbbing veins surfaced on the back of his palm.
Linda, wait for me!
Mark declared in his mind as wp4webnovel.com followed them at a steady pace. It wasn’t until both of them entered the study that wp4webnovel.com stopped in his tracks and left the apartment. Once they were in the study, the Duke gave Linda some instructions before heading off to Nancy’s room.
“Your Majesty, isn’t it time for you to fulfill your end of our bargain?” the Duke asked while leaning against the door.
Nancy’s heart sank at the words. It was just a matter of time before wp4webnovel.com had to come to terms with it. Regardless of how unwilling wp4webnovel.com was, there was no way for wp4webnovel.com to reject him. After all, wp4webnovel.com life was at stake.
“I’ll hand it to you as soon as possible,” Nancy replied in a solemn tone.
Whatever the Duke wanted was currently under the custody of Nancy’s die-hard followers. Without wp4webnovel.com permission, no one was going to get their hands on it.
Who is the man speaking? What sort of deal does wp4webnovel.com have with the queen mother?
