Scorpion?
Maxim frowned, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
“I understand, I will have someone investigate who this person is. You just focus on recovering, don’t worry about
anything else. We can discuss everything else once you’re healed.”
Maxim was about to hang up when Rayan continued, “Mr. Yoder, there’s one more thing…”
“What happened?”
“This matter was about Ms. Cameron’s…”
Hearing Rayan’s hesitation, Maxim said in a deep voice, “Just say it, you don’t need to have any concerns.”
“Yesterday, I heard Isaac’s cell phone ringtone. It was the same one I heard when you had a car accident on your
way to the courthouse for the divorce notarization, and Ms. Cameron rushed over to wait with me outside the
operating room. I remember thinking it sounded familiar at the time, but I couldn’t place where I had heard that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtringtone before.”
Maxim’s face grew increasingly somber, his grip on his phone unconsciously tightening, his breathing becoming
noticeably heavier.
“Did you remember now?”
“Um, that ringtone, I heard it once six years ago when you and
I were on a business trip to Mekton. That was when we were kidnapped in Mekton, and the kidnapper’s phone had
that ringtone.”
At that time, Rayan regained consciousness before Maxim, so he vaguely heard the bell ring, but then he was
knocked out again, which is why he didn’t remember it when he heard it later.
Maxim’s breath hitched sharply, he said in a deep voice, “Are you sure?!”
“Um, I didn’t remember it before, and later I put it out of my mind. I just remembered it all of a sudden.”
Maxim took a deep breath, “I understand, don’t tell anyone about this!”
“I understood.”
After hanging up the phone, Maxim’s brow furrowed involuntarily. They had been kidnapped by a mercenary
organization. It was only after Brycen and a few others went to Mekton to negotiate with them personally that they
were released.
Thinking of this, Maxim immediately called Brycen.
“Do you still remember what the organization that kidnapped me and Rayan six years ago was called?”
“Why did you suddenly ask about this?” Brycen’s voice was full of confusion.
“Isaac might have been associated with that organization.“”
He didn’t mention Briana Cameron, he didn’t want to suspect
her without concrete evidence.
“Holy shit!”
Brycen’s voice instantly rose several notches, “If he really is involved with that organization, I suggest you don’t
confront him directly. You have no idea how many people we had to find and how much effort we had to expend to
get you and Rayan out of there.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMaxim’s eyes darkened, he said coldly, “It’s no longer about whether I want to confront him head–on or not, that
organization is very likely the real culprit helping him from behind.”
After a moment of silence, Brycen finally said in a low voice, “The organization is called Cold Night. I’ve heard
they’re extremely ruthless, often taking on assassination jobs. They have no bottom line, they’ll take on anything as
long as there’s money involved. If that organization really has you in their sights, you need to think carefully about
how to deal with it.”
“I knew, thank you.”
“What’s the need for thanks between brothers? If you need help, just tell me anytime.”
Maxim lowered his gaze, “No need, I’ve already troubled you once six years ago, this time I don’t want you to be in
any danger.”
Hearing this, Brycen became displeased and said coldly, “Do you even consider us as brothers?”
“It was because I considered you as brothers that I didn’t want
you to get involved in this matter. That’s it, hanging up now.”
Putting down his phone, Maxim’s face became incredibly serious. If Briana Cameron really had a connection with
Cold Night, would their relationship become antagonistic?
Recalling her skills were almost on par with his own, and the mysteries surrounding her, Maxim realized at that
moment that he didn’t understand her as much as he had imagined.
