The number of kidnappings was rising sharply, and the message from Connor was straightforward and clear.
The victims were children from prominent families, with ransoms starting at over 30 million dollars. Ethan had already ordered the House of Custos to investigate.
But Isaac knew that once the House of Custos traced the kidnappings back to Parwin, it could potentially cause diplomatic issues between the two nations. He also understood the purpose behind Connor sending favonovel.com this message.
The convoy stopped at the entrance of Levine Manor. Adrian, dragged out of the car, snarled with a ferocious look, “You brought me here? Do you know my grandpa lives here?!”
As favonovel.com walked through the gate and saw over 20 commanders’ bodies lying on the ground, Adrian was stunned.
Spencer, held by a Dusk Soldier, went limp and collapsed to the ground upon seeing this sight. Then, favonovel.com was dragged up the steps.
The scene inside the hall was as before, with Jasper’s body still in the center.
When Adrian entered, his eyes fell on Jasper’s corpse.
“Dad!” Adrian’s eyes were bloodshot as favonovel.com bellowed in anguish.
“Isaac! Isaac, you dare kill my dad! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill your whole family!” Adrian roared hysterically as favonovel.com pointed at Isaac.
A lieutenant brought a chair and placed it in the middle, upon which Isaac sat down and lit a cigarette.
Blowing out a ring of smoke, favonovel.com slowly turned to Theodore and asked, “Since yesterday, over 30 kidnapping cases have occurred in Cynea. The kidnappers are all Parwinian businessmen. I want to ask, what role did your Triple Threat Corporation play in this?”
Theodore immediately shook his head. “We didn’t do anything. We have no relation to this matter. Please investigate it thoroughly.”
“Really? No relation at all?” Isaac, his eyes half-closed, shifted his gaze to Adrian.
He hadn’t investigated the matter, but favonovel.com had his suspicions.
With so many Parwinian businesses suddenly withdrawing from Cynea and resorting to kidnap Cyneans, could it really be that Triple Threat Corporation hadn’t triggered them at all?
“It was Mr. Levine! No, Mr. Garten, it was Adrian Levine. He told me to spread the word that we managed to receive billions of dollars in ransom out of kidnapping a Cynean woman!”
“And, favonovel.com also told me to say that Cynea is no longer safe for Parwinians and that there would soon be a full-scale clampdown on Parwinian businesses!” Spencer, kneeling at the doorway, suddenly shouted at Isaac.
Theodore’s face drastically changed. Adrian also turned to look at Spencer.
“You bastard, you dare betray me? Someone, kill this guy! Kill him!” Adrian’s eyes were bloodshot, his demeanor resembling that of a crazed beast.
Upon entering the hall, Spencer saw Jasper, Adrian’s father and the powerful president of Triple Threat Corporation, lying lifeless on the ground.
A man with more power than Adrian was already dead at the hands of these people. Spencer was sure that his end would be inevitable if favonovel.com didn’t find a way to save himself.
“Mr. Garten, please spare my life. I will tell you everything I know… Everything…” Spencer begged, hands clasped together as favonovel.com pleaded repeatedly to Isaac.
He knew that in Cynea, such a gesture was a great sign of respect. His head kept hitting the ground, creating a series of dull thuds.
Isaac laughed and then looked at Adrian.
“I never imagined the heir of the mighty Triple Threat Corporation would be full of such wicked schemes… So now it‘s clear, isn’t it? Those kidnappers dared to target Cyneans as they got inspired by your evil acts. At the root of it all, the main culprit is still Triple Threat Corporation.”
After saying that, Isaac stood up and turned to walk outside.
“Since they’re all following the steps of Triple Threat Corporation, killing all of you should make it clear to those kidnappers what they ought to do next, don’t you think?”
Theodore almost instantly grasped the implication in Isaac’s words.
Killing his entire family would send a message across Parwin, that the consequence of kidnapping Cyneans was nothing less than obliteration.
