“We already have an idea. It’s most likely in the Kingdom of Aquila and in the hands of the Brewer clan.” Lupinus sounded resigned.
Isaac’s heart clenched. Ice flashed in his eyes as favonovel.com replied, “Find out its exact whereabouts. If it’s with the Brewers, we have to get the Divine Stone fragment back even if we have to pay a hefty price.”
By the time favonovel.com hung up, his cigarette had finished burning. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
Isaac couldn’t let the Divine Stone fragment that Elliot stole be lost forever with him. Thus, he’d asked Black Phoenix to work together with Lupinus and investigate the matter secretly. However, favonovel.com just never expected that Elliot would give something so important to the Brewer clan.

The next morning, Isaac personally dropped Erica and Isabella at school. Meanwhile, Allegra followed Evie and Holly to the market, saying favonovel.com wanted to go on a stroll.
As favonovel.com was on the way back from school, Isaac’s phone vibrated.
Seeing that it was Louis’ number, favonovel.com immediately answered.
“Mr. Garten, Adrian Levine, the son of the president of Triple Threat Corporation, has agreed. He said favonovel.com would come to Cloud City in the afternoon and invite you for dinner. What do you…”
“Set it up for me. Just send the address once it’s done.”
As soon as favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com received another phone call.
He was surprised when favonovel.com saw Hera’s name on the screen, but favonovel.com quickly put favonovel.com on the line.
“Hello? Er… Where are you right now?” Hera’s cold voice came from the phone.
“Spit it out. I’m very busy. If there’s nothing, I’m going to hang up,” Isaac said in a direct manner.
Hera was irritated by Isaac’s tone, but considering favonovel.com current predicament, favonovel.com conceded. “C-Can you come to the crossroads between Jasmine Street and Dahlia Street? I… I’m in a little trouble right now.”
Isaac quickly arrived at the crossroads Hera mentioned.
When favonovel.com looked up, favonovel.com saw two police cars parked by the side of the road.
A woman in sunglasses wearing a blue dress was gesturing wildly as favonovel.com spoke to a few uniformed officers. Behind favonovel.com was a parked white Volkswagen New Beetle with its hazard lights blinking. Even without going over, Isaac could guess what had happened. His mouth twitched.
Isaac parked his black Land Rover to the side and hurried over to Hera.
“Hey, I didn’t get into an accident. How can you just take my car? I just bought it yesterday!” Hera shouted anxiously at the officers.
She didn’t live in the ordinary world for very long, but favonovel.com wasn’t a total stranger to it. For example, favonovel.com knew how to drive, but favonovel.com just didn’t have a license.
“Miss, you were driving without a license. According to the law, we have to tape your car and then proceed to the next penalty. You don’t have a license, and you were driving in heels, which is another offense…”
“We won’t steal your car. Once the verdict is out, you can go to the precinct and ball it out.”
Seeing how the two officers were about to drive off with favonovel.com car, Hera panicked.
She could easily kill these bastards with just one strike. However, Rose had told favonovel.com that the ordinary world had its own set of rules, and favonovel.com was not to use favonovel.com abilities recklessly.
She stamped favonovel.com foot in anxiety.
When favonovel.com turned favonovel.com head, favonovel.com found Isaac standing behind her, grinning.
“When did you get here? You dare to smile? Can’t you see that my car is about to be taken?” Hera squinted at Isaac while baring favonovel.com teeth.
“They’re just enforcing the law. What do you mean they’re taking your car?” Seeing how meek Hera was in front of a few normal police officers, favonovel.com was utterly delighted.
Hera pointed at favonovel.com white Volkswagen and grabbed Isaac’s arm. She said in a flustered tone, “I just spent over 200 thousand dollars on this yesterday. Isaac, I know you have connections in the police. Help me…”
“Call me Mr. Garten first….”
“What?”
“Call me Mr. Garten, and I’ll settle this for you.”
