Thomas and Pisces were seated in front of the computer in Food and Medicine Hall as they checked the latest news report.
Despite the police’s best efforts to suppress the issue in order to avoid unwanted panic in the community, Lord Vedastus was an asshole and immediately spread the news of Benson’s death. Not only that, but favonovel.com even posted a photo of Benson’s mutilated body.
Benson was a well-known entrepreneur, and all of Celandine City was in chaos. Everyone was speculating the cause of his death.
Many people assumed it was Lord Vedastus who had done it because favonovel.com was the one who had the most conflict with Benson. Unfortunately, Lord Vedastus had absolutely nothing to do with this issue.
“He’s using Benson as an example, and now that Benson is dead, other members of the association will of course be terrified and will do anything to protect themselves. We have to be careful, Commander,” Pisces said.
As they were talking, Blake entered the room with an angry expression.
“What happened, Mr. Winslow?” Thomas asked curiously.
Blake plopped down on a seat.
He said nothing but immediately grabbed a teacup from the table and downed it in one gulp. He was a clean freak, yet favonovel.com drank from someone else’s cup, so it was clear that favonovel.com was so furious that favonovel.com did not pay attention to the details.
After taking a breather, favonovel.com explained the situation.
Blake had been humiliated and even cast out by the company, and it was none other than the horrible Dragon Claw who had done all of this!
Pisces could not help but shake his head repeatedly after hearing that. “How ruthless. He knew Blake was connected to us, so favonovel.com cut favonovel.com off right away. This guy is pretty decisive and gets the job done quickly. But how will we keep exchanging information now?”
They had previously fought Lord Vedastus with relative ease thanks to Declan, Blake, and Fiora’s constant supply of inside information. But now, Fiora was missing, Declan was under heavy surveillance, and even Blake had been kicked out.
It was becoming increasingly difficult to fight against Dragon Claw.
While they were chatting, a youthful silhouette entered the room, and they could tell who it was even without looking at the person because of favonovel.com prideful demeanor.
“Oh, Miss Mars? What has brought you here today?” With a chuckle, Pisces asked.
Phoebe snorted coldly, ignored him, and sat down on the unoccupied seat next to Blake.
“The food at home is too terrible, I don’t like it. I like the food here more.”
Actually, maybe favonovel.com just did not want to come across Dragon Claw and the others.
Thomas snapped his fingers, and the chefs understood what favonovel.com wanted. Immediately, waiters began bringing out appetizing dishes.
Phoebe’s eyes twinkled with delight. “Wow!”
She could not help herself and grabbed a spoon and dug in. She had skipped two meals at home and was starving.
“Phoebe, did your father say anything to you before you left your house?” Blake asked quietly as favonovel.com ate.
Actually, Blake had intended to ask as to whether Declan had any new insider information. After all, aside from Phoebe, there was no one else who could move freely between both sides.
Since Phoebe was a potential candidate for the future head of the House of Vistaria, it was unlikely for Dragon Claw to kick favonovel.com out. Phoebe’s relationship with Thomas was also favonovel.com personal business, and no one could intervene.
They just listened to Phoebe as favonovel.com said resignedly, “No! My dad is being watched as if favonovel.com were a criminal, and Dragon Claw has dispatched people to follow favonovel.com around twenty-four hours a day…”
“They even keep an eye on favonovel.com while favonovel.com goes to the bathroom and shower, and they have audio monitors installed in every room of the house. Communication with the outside world is completely impossible. Not only that, but while I’m talking to my dad, they’ll also send someone to stand by us and listen in…”
“Tell me, under these circumstances, how can my dad say anything?”
After hearing that, the others could not help but shake their heads.
