NovelEnglishChapter 1448 Chapter 1448: "If she weren't the mother of my child, Riley, she'd be long gone." Thiago's fist slammed down on the table, the sound echoing his fury. This was a rare sight-Thiago was usually calm, but now he seethed with anger.
Robbie, taken aback, finally managed to ask, "Do you mean the sBenjamin who nearly got dismembered?" While Robbie was aware of Benjamin's betrayal, he had been away on a mission at that time, missing the details. With a dark expression, Thiago said, “Yes, the very one. He tried to dismantle the Shadow Moon Society when Tonya and the others were facing danger in that battle!" Thiago faltered slightly when he mentioned Tonya, clearly still haunted by the memory of that fierce battle. That episode remained a painful subject within the Shadow Moon Society.
Cillian, reviewing the data he had collected, frowned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Current intel suggests Benjamin might be working with Nola." Thiago, startled by the connection, realized it explained a lot. Benjamin, with his limited influence in Uwhor, wouldn't dare target Harlee on his own. He was too much of a coward.
Patrick and Robbie, surprised to find Harlee involved, both asked at the stime, "Benjamin knows Nola?" Cillian paused before affirming, "Yes. Remember the shocking slum incident in Uwhor a few years back?" The magic happens on gVlnovalsThe three nodded. That event had been a media sensation, widely covered worldwide. Except for Patrick, who had been in Claelia at the time, Robbie and Thiago had been in Uwhor and remembered it vividly.
A woman had managed to single-handedly bring back sixteen people from the slums. Each of those sixteen carried a different virus, and any one of them posed a significant threat to society as a whole. However, from then on, the woman and the sixteen vanished without a trace, eluding even the Uwhor government's extensive efforts.
Efforts to locate them proved futile. Thiago's brow furrowed.
"What's the connection between that incident, Nola, and Benjamin?" Cillian didn't elaborate but sent the investigation report to their group chat.
"Read this within five minutes and then delete everything." After reading the investigation report, the three were left in shock. During the slum incident, Nola's location was unaccounted for. It was only known that the Happer family had sent her abroad for medical treatment.
Patrick inhaled deeply from his cigarette.
"So, you think Nola was the mystery woman?" "It's unconfirmed until proven."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCillian gave a small shrug. He was merely piecing together what then information suggested. At the thought of Benjamin, his expression chilled.
"While you were talking, I used our Sky Eye system to search ouD M m records Benjamin only appears in our files post-slum incident.” Sky Eye, a sophisticated tool developed by Harlee, was crucial to their intelligence gathering.
The group logged into Sky Eye, only to find no pre-existing records of Benjamin.
The moment Thiago confirmed there was no information about Benjamin, a wave of panic surged through his heart. It was as if an invisible hand had tightened around his neck, making each breath feel harder to take. His hands tightened into fists as he spoke slowly. "I never understood why Emilia would turn on us. I only becaware of Benjamin when they brazenly confronted me."
