"You make it sound easy, but I'm not sure if going after the Carter Family will do us any good now. Eden Carter is dead, and if George Carter decides to come after us, what then?" Victor said calmly. "I'm already looking into who's behind Saxon. If it's connected to George Carter, we won't let him off the hook. Just think, if Italy's mafia takes over Australia's Ghost Gang, who's really going to suffer in the end?"There was no doubt it would be the First Terrorist Organization."Hmm, let's wait for the results," Rose said. "Camellia and I agree - don't drag Laura and Henry into your feuds. I quite like that girl."Victor raised an eyebrow and shrugged. "Truman and Robin are arriving tomorrow. Should we not tell them according to your suggestions?""If we find George Carter is involved, we'll have to tell them," Antonio said coolly. "I never expected there would be survivors from back then. Since someone's alive and it's been so many years, there's no point in dredging up the past. If
"Shut your trap, or I'll toss you to the wolves," Rose threatened, not treating her like a kid at all.The little girl in the man's arms stopped crying then, glaring at Rose with red eyes.Camellia and Rose both frowned.Yep, the resemblance was uncanny!The features were a dead ringer, equally gorgeous and delicate, a spittin' image of a beauty. Give it a few more years, and she'd be a real heartbreaker. Wearing a white lace princess gown, her eyes and nose red from crying, she had a real cute, pitiful look.But..."Who are you people? I wanna go home...my daddy will put you in jail, do you know who I am?" Moira cried, the spoiled little miss having quite the attitude and temper."Who cares who you are?" Camellia sneered.Moira glared at Camellia, wiping her tears."I want my mommy, I want my daddy...""Shut your trap, your 'sis' ain't calling for mommy and daddy," Camellia snapped, unable to hold back her irritation, even though she knew getting mad at this clueless little girl wasn
Their hearts sank heavily. News about Laura?They exchanged glances, unsure of what to say. Should they tell him that Laura was dead? Or tell him that Laura hadn't been found yet, and there might be news tomorrow? Gave him a glimmer of hope that the news would come back tomorrow? But what if they might find her body? How would Henry cope with that?Having lost once before, then given hope, only to be devastated again, how could he endure it? They weren't sure if they could find Laura, but both Henry and Antonio had witnessed the situation back then. Antonio had already asserted that the chances of Laura being alive were one in ten thousand.Surely Henry understood.Even Antonio, usually so composed and insightful, couldn't find the words now. Camellia and Rose fell into silence. Who dared to make promises at a time like this?Silence lingered for a while."That's enough, I don't want to hear anymore. Go." Henry turned away, his blue eyes still tinged with a thin layer of red, like a v
"Wifey..." Herman urgently called out to Camellia.Camellia gritted her teeth. "You're really pushing it."Though she said that, her hand was already in motion. Camellia lacked experience, but in the special agent training camp, sometimes sacrifices were necessary for the mission. Both she and Rose had learned how to seduce and satisfy men. She hadn't expected Herman to be the first man she would use these methods on.Herman felt so comfortable, humming as he held Camellia. This time, he didn't complain of discomfort. Camellia's cheeks turned alarmingly red. Surprisingly, she didn't feel repulsed by what she used to consider tasteless.The size of his member... hmm... truly magnificent.In her hands, it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. Men were indeed lustful creatures."Wifey, harder... feels so good," Herman murmured as he hugged Camellia, his large purple eyes flickering with sparks, a shade darker, his voice slightly hoarse, as he kissed Camellia's face and lips."From now
The fountain pool wasn't deep, only up to Henry's knees. He crouched down, completely soaked in water, inch by inch feeling around, searching for his jade pendant, creating countless splashes.Henry looked extremely anxious, his pale red eyes no longer dull but urgent, frantic. His small hands searched the water pool, panicking, fearing he wouldn't find his jade pendant again."Laura..." he called out Laura's name repeatedly, becoming even more desperate. Each step, each footprint, his face flushed with extreme despair, his features contorted with anguish.The water from the fountain sprayed out, falling gently into the pool, onto Henry's hair, wetting it, softly sticking to his rosy cheeks. He looked extremely disheveled, his white shirt clinging to his slender body, appearing especially pitiful.Camellia, Antonio, and Victor didn't stop him, just watched Henry anxiously searching in the fountain pool for his jade pendant. Everyone's faces didn't look good.Moira, originally covering
The Mediterranean region in the summer was dry and scorching, with the surface parched and desolate. It was blistering hot, especially in the desert areas, where the heat was unbearable, the temperature soaring to the point of scorching people like charcoal.Mr. Marcus and Jessica had been walking in the desert for two days, exhausted and thirsty. Jessica was so tired she could barely stand, her strength depleted from the torment she endured on the island, coupled with the virus in her body, leaving her far weaker than before.Amid the endless yellow sand, they couldn't tell which way was forward.The chocolate Mr. Marcus carried was almost gone, and he saved it each time, only eating when necessary, mainly giving it to Jessica to stave off hunger. In the desert, if they couldn't find the water source, he figured they wouldn't last much longer."Let's rest for a while." Mr. Marcus helped her sit in the shade of a rock.Both of them were covered in sweat, their faces caked with sand af
"It sounds like water."Mr. Marcus's eyes lit up, a glimmer of hope flickering in his blue eyes. He quickly stood up from the ground, the sound coming from behind this rock wall. He immediately climbed around the sand and stones, his eyes suddenly brightening.An oasis...Indeed, it was an oasis.The lush green grass, the clear water of the small lake, and the extensive bushes and tall trees all made it seem lively. For them, who had walked through the desert for two days, this was undoubtedly a paradise.An earthly paradise."Jessica..." Mr. Marcus called out loudly.Jessica had already reached his side and also saw this vast oasis. They were indeed blind; this oasis was behind the tall rock wall, and they hadn't noticed it at all.Just separated by a large rock wall, yet the scenery was completely different."So beautiful," Jessica couldn't help but admire.The green water, the bushes, and the hot wind carried a scent of green grass. Although there was a vast desert around, this oas
Dozens of horses circled Mr. Marcus and Jessica a few times before finally stopping.The men dismounted easily, and one handsome, tall and handsome man, asked in Spanish, "Who are you? How did you end up here?"Mr. Marcus smiled gently and claimed they were lost travelers in the desert.The man furrowed his thick eyebrows, clearly skeptical of their story. However, seeing Mr. Marcus and Jessica's disheveled appearance and dusty state, he found them non-threatening. He turned and quickly exchanged words with the other two men in Spanish.Jessica couldn't understand a word, but Mr. Marcus maintained his gentlemanly smile. After their conversation ended, Mr. Marcus asked them for help.The man replied sternly, "We don't believe you. Leave."Several submachine guns were raised, pointing directly at Jessica and Mr. Marcus.Jessica spoke in English, "Don't touch me. I have a virus. If infected, you'll die in seven days."The men were shocked. The two men who had approached her involuntarily
