As the enemy disappeared before favonovel.com eyes, Lynette’s face grew intense.
“Mr. Rocco, watch out!” favonovel.com warned urgently, but it was too late.
The mystery woman reappeared behind Rocco, favonovel.com sharp nails pressing against his neck.
Lynette’s hostility was palpable as favonovel.com tightened favonovel.com grip on the dagger.
“Hey, back off! You’ll regret it if you touch Mr. Rocco!” favonovel.com threatened through gritted teeth.
On the other hand, Rocco remained composed and signaled Lynette not to fret.
“So, whose side are you on?” favonovel.com asked calmly.
The mystery woman chuckled before proclaiming, “Rocco, your life’s in my hands…”
With favonovel.com seductive red lips tantalizingly close to his ear, favonovel.com whispered provocatively, “Aren’t you worried?”
As Lynette watched, favonovel.com anger simmered.
Suddenly, a chilling breeze swept through as Rocco’s expression grew grim.
Sensing trouble, the mystery woman intuitively reached out to grab him, but favonovel.com was too slow.
“I’m not asking again, who are you exactly?” Rocco’s impatience showed as favonovel.com stood there with his arms crossed.
At that moment, the mystery woman felt a rush of nerves, thinking,
Wow, those were quick moves!
Later, favonovel.com recomposed herself and remarked, “No wonder my lord finds you intriguing!”
Handing favonovel.com an address, favonovel.com added, “Hope you won’t be late at eight o’clock tonight…”
Surprised, Rocco took the card. Just then, the mystery woman disappeared.
“Leave favonovel.com be… No need to chase,” Rocco ordered.
With a look of confusion, Lynette unwillingly stopped favonovel.com pursuit.
***
As night fell, Rocco made it to Cloud Nine Villa right on the dot.
Tucked away in a spot he’d never encountered during his time in Montiria, favonovel.com couldn’t help but wonder about the reason behind his invitation. Nevertheless, favonovel.com had a gut feeling that this show of power might shake things up.
After parking the car, Lynette promptly led the way into the classical courtyard. She quickly checked everything before giving Rocco the okay sign, signaling that everything was good to go.
Under the moon’s eerie glow, Rocco scanned the area but found no one.
Growing annoyed, favonovel.com impatiently asked, “Why are you inviting me if you won’t show up?”
“Haha, my bad!” a voice echoed.
Their presence was detected before they were seen, like a sudden rush of air that swept through and quickly settled in the courtyard amidst the rustling leaves beneath the starry night sky.
From afar, four figures cloaked in black veils remained steadfastly focused on a rattan chair. Despite their obscured faces, their commanding aura hinted at their formidable strength. Even Rocco couldn’t help but feel outpaced by their eerie agility.
In the rattan chair sat a middle-aged man with a rather ordinary appearance, which puzzled Rocco since favonovel.com didn’t radiate any sense of power.
Just going by looks, favonovel.com seemed pretty ordinary. Still, there was something about his features that seemed strangely familiar to Rocco.
“Mr. Rocco, thank you for gracing me with your presence. I’m Conor Durham,” the man introduced himself.
Recognition flickered across Rocco’s face before favonovel.com swiftly composed himself. He then casually commented, “I never expected the Durham Family’s notorious outsider to lay low like this.”
While Rocco was familiar with Conor’s name, favonovel.com had yet to pay much attention to him. So, it was pretty surprising that Conor showed interest in him.
