Emma revealed that the reason Charlotte had been targeted was because Ethan and Iriana believed that having Charlotte in their grasp would give them more control over William. They believed that William would be more vulnerable and easier to control if they had something very precious to him, which was his wife's safety.Emma explained, "They think that by threatening Charlotte's safety, they can force you to submit to their will, William. This is something only the most cunning people can think of, to find their opponent's weaknesses and use them to their advantage."William, even though anger had seeped into him, still showed great composure. He said, "They won't succeed. I'm not going to give up so easily, and I'm going to make sure they pay for their treatment this time.""So what are we going to do, William?" asked Charlotte."We're going to play their foul game. I'm going to make sure that it's not us who die, but them." William said with a straight face. The look in his eyes ra
The following afternoon, William, his team, and the Lysander family met in a room. The faces of William's team were obviously very familiar to the Lysander family. Xavier was the one with the worst image because he used to have problems with Emma Lysander. But thankfully, that was all in the past. Now everyone is working under the same vision to take down Ethan and Iriana.Besides Xavier, whose face is already familiar, there is also Mathew. Everyone certainly knew Mathew's identity, as he had been hired as a bodyguard during the launch. The only stranger in the room was Jaguar. Except for William and Charlotte, they thought no one else knew Jaguar."Aren't you the former owner of the Salazar Group?" asked Arthur."Ohhh...I'm surprised anyone recognized me. That's right, I was the former owner of the Salazar Group. Now the company has been taken over by Xavier and I only hold a small portion of the company's shares." Jaguar said."I didn't expect you to be part of my son-in-law's team
"It's just that today there were a lot of guests who came to visit. They range from people in nice suits to someone who looks like a tramp. I'm very busy because of them. That's why it was quite difficult for me to contact you." Daniel said."Do you know who they are? And what are their interests?" asked William."They are professionals in the field of dirty work, sir. I overheard their conversation. It seems Ethan that you and Iriana are planning a kidnapping." Daniel replied."You are right Daniel. They are indeed planning a kidnapping. And the target is the Lysander family," William said.Daniel was surprised to hear William's response, "Are you serious, sir?"William replied in a more serious tone, "Of course I'm not joking, Daniel. This is a matter of life and death. He then asked, "I need more information Daniel. Do you know the identity of these people? Or maybe you can find out what group they belong to?"Daniel listened seriously. "I will try to get more information, sir. But
After pausing for a moment, he said, "The first is the Little Crow. They are a group of criminals who are on the rise in Litusia. Then there is the Sleeping Garden, a group of women with exceptional martial arts skills. This group usually works in the field of escorting women.""I don't think these two groups are a big problem for me. I can take care of them in one night." William said.Daniel then continued, "That is correct, sir. The two groups I mentioned earlier are not a big problem. What we need to pay close attention to is the third group. They are the Behemoths.""Behemoths? You mean the people who often riot in this country? Aren't they just a group of people who like to cause trouble and move around if they are paid a small amount of money? That's not Daniel's problem either," William said in surprise."They are just his men, sir. The original Behemoth members are always behind the shadow. They are completely untouchable." Daniel said in a serious tone full of emphasis."I u
When William returned home, he called his colleagues. First Jaguar, then Xavier and then Matthew. William gathered them in the living room of the Lysander family home and gave them the file with the information he had just purchased. He also ordered the three of them to go to the designated location. The task was left entirely to his colleagues, whether it was to negotiate and convince the groups Ethan had mobilized to change sides or to destroy them. It would be the decision of Jaguar, Xavier and Mathew alone.William instructed Jaguar, Xavier and Mathew to make sure they did not go alone to the headquarters of the groups they would face. William then asked Jaguar and Mathew to recruit some people with high-end combat skills to join them. The only one who did not bring an army was Xavier. He only brought a few bodyguards because the group he was facing was a group of women only.It would be very cowardly for him to bring a bunch of troops like Jaguar and Mathew just to face a group o
The jaguar moves carefully between dark and narrow passageways. He had to adapt to different environmental conditions, sometimes creeping under windows, sometimes slipping through sparsely guarded back doors. His every move was calculated to avoid any chance of being spotted by Behemoth's spies.Once inside the headquarters, Jaguar was able to steal some secret documents containing the plans and identities of Behemoth members. He also managed to eavesdrop on conversations between some of the group's members, which revealed some important information. Jaguar knew that this information would be a powerful weapon in William's hands.However, the deeper Jaguar infiltrated, the more he felt he was being watched. His keen instincts warned him that Behemoth's group wasn't completely fooled. Jaguar had to move faster and more cautiously.Continuing his cautious infiltration, Jaguar finally realized that the situation was beginning to feel dangerous. Still, he tried to remain undetected. While
Xavier made his intentions clear, emphasizing the potential benefits they could gain by allying with William. From the money that could be made to the long-term relationship that would follow.Negotiations weren't always smooth, with some Sleeping Garden members showing disapproval, but Xavier wisely overcame each of their objections. With various arguments and words of wisdom, Xavier managed to woo Seraphina and most of the Sleeping Garden members.After a while, Seraphina finally agreed to bring her group to William's camp. Satisfied with the outcome of the negotiations, Xavier left the Sleeping Garden headquarters with a satisfied face.With Xavier having completed his mission at almost the same time as Jaguar, it was now Mathew's turn. With his tall stature and innate courage, he approached Little Crow's territory. He felt a sense of fear and tension as he entered an area filled with threats and uncertainty. Mathew knew that the right approach was crucial, and he had to find a way
Time was ticking towards midnight, and William was still sitting in his room with a feeling of uncertainty. Every second felt like an endless hour, and tension hung in the air.His room, usually full of activity and bustle, was now silent and tense. The dim light gave the room a mysterious feel, casting moving shadows on the walls.On the desk in front of him, a cell phone sat silently, waiting for news from William's colleagues. Every time the phone rang, William's heart raced, but most of the time it was just a call or a message from someone else.His mind kept drifting to the events that were happening out there. Had Jaguar, Xavier and Mathew successfully completed their mission? Did they survive the danger? These questions haunted his mind.Midnight brought an increasingly dark and eerie atmosphere, creating a deepening sense of worry in William's heart. Still, he tried to remain calm and patient, waiting in the hope that news of his comrades would come soon.As William continued
