In the corner of the ballroom, George and Liam stood side by side, their glasses of champagne glinting in the dim light as they observed the scene before them. He and Liam, as well as the other of their allies, couldn't help but frown. It was because these idiots seem not to be able to see if the person they're trying to talk to wants to talk to them or not. Their eyes were fixed on Sherly, Maria, and Kim, who were surrounded by a group of eager guests, all vying for their attention and trying to extract information.With a soft chuckle, George shook his head, a wry smile playing at his lips. "Would you look at that?" he remarked to Liam, his tone laced with amusement as he pointed his finger to the group gathering of the three people. "They're like vultures, swooping in for any crumb of information they can get their hands on," he said, shaking his head as if he had seen the most funny thing in his life.Liam nodded in agreement, a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. Of course

As George checked his phone, he noticed a message from an unknown number. Curious, he opened it and found a string of seemingly random characters. However, as he began to decipher the code in his mind, a realization dawned on him—it was Sherly.Sherly has her phoen with her. He thought that the boss of the information center doesn't bring any gadgets but an advanced one in her body. How could she give him a message?Furrowing his brow, George couldn't help but feel a surge of frustration and admiration at Sherly's cunning. No wonder everyone fears her. The way she deals with everything is really impressive. Despite the risk, she had reached out to him in her own covert way, knowing that he would understand the message.He stopped beside his friend, Liam, in the dark. Liam looked at him and wanted to ask, but he refrained. With George's expression, he knows that something good happened while he was gone, and he doesn't want to talk about those things. Especially when it was about Georg

As Sherly's instincts kicked in, she turned swiftly, scanning the surroundings for any signs of surveillance. It was because she felt something would happen. With her instinct, she knows that everything will be out of its place. But before she could take action, she felt a chilling presence behind her, and a handkerchief laced with a potent drug was pressed against her face.Instinctively, Sherly attempted to resist, her mind racing with thoughts of escape. But the drug quickly took hold, its effects washing over her like a tidal wave. Before she lost her consciousness, she tried to see who it was but failed. She did not see who the man was who put the handkerchief in her face. With a final, futile struggle, Sherly's vision blurred, and darkness enveloped her as she succumbed to unconsciousness, her body slumping limply to the ground.In that fleeting moment of awareness, Sherly realized that she had fallen into a trap, and her every move was anticipated and countered with chilling

As Hideous listened to the conversation on the phone, his heart clenched with a mixture of fear and determination. He doesn't want something bad to happen to his daughter. She had been through a lot. With each word exchanged, he felt a sense of urgency rise within him, driving him to take immediate action to save his beloved daughter.However, his thoughts were abruptly interrupted as Lilia entered his office, a smile playing on her lips. Her smile is telling him that something good happened to her, which made him annoyed. His daughter is in danger, and this woman is smiling at him, which is so annoying. The sight of her smug expression grated on Hideous' nerves, his anger simmering just beneath the surface."What are you so pleased about?" he demanded, his voice laced with thinly veiled contempt.For some reason, he hated her even more.Lilia's smile widened as she confessed her role in Sherly's abduction, her words dripping with malice and vindictiveness. With each syllable, Hideous

When George opened his eyes after the minor operation, he immediately looked for Sherly. Knowing that she was in the same hospital, he wanted to go and see her. As George made his way through the hospital corridors, a sense of unease settled over him. Sherly got hurt because of him, and if he could not see it with his own eyes, he would not know if he could calm down. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss, and the realization that Sherly's family was likely aware of his presence only heightened his apprehension.He's never been this scared in his life. He's always been fighting, and killing has always been in his life, but now, for some reason, he is scared. He feared no one, not even his friend, the boss of the Rui Lin Mafia. However, right now, with Sherly's family, he feels scared for his life.Arriving in front of Sherly's room, George approached his men stationed outside her room, his expression carefully composed despite the turmoil brewing within him. Even th
