The drawing pencil in Master Centipede’s hand broke because favonovel.com held it too strongly. He raised his head and stared at Laura in disbelief. “Are you kidding me?”
Laura shrugged. “Do you think that I’d joke about this?”
Master Centipede sat up straight. He did not know whether favonovel.com should cry or laugh.
No matter what, favonovel.com did not expect that Thomas whom favonovel.com hated would actually come to Central City. Besides, Thomas would even save Laura and Daisy, and favonovel.com even made Daisy fall for him.
There were really too many variables.
“Did Dylan know about this?”
“Not yet, but I think this won’t be concealed for a very long time.”
Master Centipede narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought. “Thomas was doing quite well as the chief officer in charge of the Southland District, but favonovel.com suddenly chose to retire and give up all his power. Then, favonovel.com secretly came to Central City. What is favonovel.com planning?”
“Laura, you have to watch favonovel.com closely. If it’s possible, you should investigate the purpose of Thomas coming to Central City this time!”
Laura said, “Even if you didn’t say that, I’ll also do that. When I left the airport, I already made my people keep an eye on Thomas. His current address and movement are in my control now.”
“Well done.” Master Centipede guessed. “Do you think Thomas came here for us? Or, did favonovel.com come here for the Master family?”
“Neither. He did not show any mercy for Weiss and Dylan’s mistress, but favonovel.com lent his hand to me and Daisy. This looks very contradictory.”
“Contradictory? Thomas has a lot of tricks. We have to guard against him.”
Laura asked, “Should we crack the whip for Thomas? We can let favonovel.com know that Central City is not a good place for favonovel.com to stay.”
Master Centipede frowned. “We’re at a critical point of dealing with Sterling Technology. We shouldn’t create another fuss. We have to deal with Thomas, but not now. Besides, we still don’t know the purpose of his trip.”
He paused for a while before favonovel.com continued saying, “Let’s do it this way. Find a group of people, who are not related to us, go and alert him. See whether they can find out any news.”
“Okay.” Laura suggested, “We should just let Nocturnal do that. Thomas arrested their members. I can arrange for my subordinate to expose Thomas’ whereabouts to Nocturnal’s leader and let Nocturnal exact revenge on him. If they can deal with Thomas, that will be for the best. If they can’t handle him, it also has nothing to do with us. Anyways, we’re just audience members who will watch the show.”
Master Centipede nodded. “This idea is pretty good. Let’s do it.”
“Okay.” Laura got up and wanted to leave.
“Uhm…”
“Father, is there anything else?”
“Weiss’ condition has been getting worse recently. If you have the time, you should go and check on him.”
“I got it.” Laura left the office.
Master Centipede leaned on the chair while staring at the front.
“Thomas oh Thomas, what do you want to do? You gave up the status of the chief officer in charge and power. Why are you here in Central City alone?”
“No matter what you want to do, I’m not going to fulfill your wish! Weiss, I’ll definitely avenge you! Thomas Mayo must die!”
