Chapter 2319
“Everything seems to be fine after I went to Las Vegas and Hong Kong, but now, we‘ve gathered one
important piece of information...”
“These people would come for my close ones just to kill me.”
“Right now, Mandy‘s their best target.”
“I need to give them the wrong impression. They need to know that I‘m scared.”
“They‘ll start to think that I was forced to divorce Mandy. They’ll even think that there‘s a huge gap
between us after what happened in Las Vegas and Hong Kong. I‘m sure everyone who‘s targeting me
will be very happy to hear this,
no?”
“Only then will the cracks in Las Vegas and Hong Kong start to show...”
Tyson froze.
“I get it now. But, about Mordu...” Tyson began quietly.
“Give Ethan a call. Tell me that he‘s in charge of the Zimmer family‘s safety.”

“Another thing. Get me a visiting card.”
“I‘ll go see Las Vegas‘ first–in–command, Paul Mendoza himself, tomorrow.”
Twelve at midnight, inside Fortune Warehouse.
This place had years worth of history, but it had already gone out of business dozens of years ago due to
the location of its establishment.
After Old Marshall, the one in charge of the warehouse passed away a few months ago, nobody stopped
by. There were even rumors of the place being haunted.
In the dead of night, a few vans with Las Vegas, Hong Kong, and Country H licenses parked in front of
the warehouse. The doors of the vehicles opened.
A dozen burly men in suits hurried out. They showed full alertness of their surroundings, their faces cold.
They were clearly trained men.
They quickly spread out according to a specific rhythm, focusing on their tasks at hand.
Just then, a man with a square face led the group of burly men forward. He waved his hand before
kicking down the warehouse door.
Bang!
The warehouse was dimly lit. Panicked whimpers sounded from deeper inside.
Lilian sat there, bound and blindfolded.
She was handcuffed, lying on an old and worn mattress. All of her limbs were locked tight, and they
looked to be in pain.
The man with a square face walked forward, his face expressionless. He yanked out the cloth that was
stuffed in Lilian‘s mouth.
“Don‘t kill me! Don‘t kill me, please!”
“My name is Lilian Yates! My daughter‘s the head of the ninth branch in the Jean family! Just ask if you
want money! She‘ll give it to you!”
“As long as you let me live, you can have as much money as you want!”
Lilian, who loved her life as much as she loved money, was fine with sacrificing her wealth if it
meant regaining her freedom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Do you really have that much money?” The man asked calmly at Lilian‘s panicked outburst.
“I don‘t, but my daughter does!”
Lilian‘s overbearing attitude was nowhere to be seen. She was desperately trying to please her
captors.
“Please, just let me go!”
“If you do, you can have even billions of dollars!”
“I don‘t know what you people do, but with this money, you can all run free! You can do as you please
wherever you want!”
“I don‘t even know what you look like! I don‘t even know where to look for revenge after you let me go!
You don‘t have to worry about a thing!”
“B–but if you kill me, my daughter will stop at
nothing to find you! Even if you‘re not scared of her, you should at least be fearful of the Jean family
behind her! R–right?”
“That‘s one of the top ten families, after all!”
Now that she was involved in a life–and–death situation, Lilian‘s mind was as clear as day. She
alternated between bribes and threats, trying her best to appeal to them.
