    ?


    "I know," Arton said gratefully. "For the sake of my son, I won''t let you down."


    Hana nced at me, then looked at As tentatively. "How about I apany Chloe here? I can be her trantor."


    As calmly responded, "Your role is to cover for Arnold. With you by his side, it implies that he''s on vacation with his girlfriend."


    "Is he currently in the country?" Arnold asked.


    "Yes. He''s already in Foswood. And Denton is also there, apanying him."


    As then turned to Arnold. "You might receive a callter asking where you are. Tell the truth, say you''re on vacation here with your girlfriend and got injured. If he invites you to meet, don''t agree too easily. Put up a show."


    Arnold made an OK gesture to As. "Don''t worry. I''m good at acting."


    His words elicitedughter from everyone, lightening the mood instantly.


    After dinner, we chatted untilte before returning to our rooms.


    As apanied me upstairs. As we walked, I asked, "Who wants to meet Arnold?"


    "I arranged for a special friend to make contact with Denton. This is the person Denton has been looking for all along. I suspect he''s colluding with individuals from the non-organization.


    "I''ve had this person stay close to him, and Arnold is the bait, considering the Beringer family''s background. I want to see what Denton is interested in," As exined truthfully.


    "Are you using Arnold''s pride to keep him on edge?" I began to understand As''s intention.


    He pinched my nose. "Looks like you haven''t been scared silly yet."


    I smiled and leaned into his embrace, wrapping my arms around his waist. "You say that, but my legs were trembling. If it weren''t for your subordinate discovering it early and your timely arrival, something bad might have happened to us."


    As tightened his arms around me and carried me up. "Are you sure your legs were trembling from fear? Or from my effort?"


    I blushed instantly, yfully hitting his shoulder. "Stop it. How did you be so cheeky? I never knew you were so good at flirting."


    Chuckling, he kissed my lips and


    then turned serious again. "I really


    didn''t anticipate this. I was confident that Navi wouldn''t dare provoke me, and my people have been

    "How did you know it wasn''t Navi''s people?" My legs were wrapped around his waist and my arms around his neck.


    He pecked my lips again. "The ones who were killed weren''t his men, and Navi is also investigating who did it. He''s afraid of angering me and not getting what he wants."


    "They''re all dead?" I was surprised. "Oh right, what about that young man? Is he okay?"


    "He''s fine, don''t worry. He''s extremely professional," As praised his subordinate.


    "There were four attackers, and two were killed. One killed himself when caught and we let go of one so we


    could-trail him," As spoke lightly. "These people are all desperados." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

    "Why do you suspect Denton is colluding with individuals from the non-organization?" I asked like a curious child because the recent events had be increasingly bizarre.


    I never expected Denton to stir things up here suddenly.


    "His disguise techniques are too simr to those of the organization, and one of the assassins belonged there."


    "Did he have a serpent-shaped tattoo?" I asked.


    As nodded.N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    "You''re quite assertive." As yed along with me.


    "I just didn''t expect that," I replied.


    I couldn''t help but think of Denton''s demeanor, especially those eyes as deep as icy pools. They gave off the feeling that made him unpredictable. Feeling uneasy, I told As, "It seems like Denton must still have some tricks up his sleeve and some secrets left undiscovered."
