Taylor stared at the corpse lying in a pool of blood, his body drenched in cold sweat. "You've only been back a few days, and someone's already tried to take your life. What's going to happen from here?" "Don't worry," Christopher replied confidently. "Before I die, I'll drag all these restless, ambitious fools down to hell with me." As the words left his lips, it struck him that he had unconsciously assumed that his final resting place would be "hell". With his hands stained in blood, so full of sin, was he truly destined for hell? In the silence, Christopher's phone rang. He turned his back to Taylor and his subordinates, bringing the phone to his ear. "Speak." "Mr. Iverson, the situation back his very unfavorable for you." An informant spoke in a clipped tone.

"The prosecution has searched the entire Iverson Group. Jeffrey and the head of the finance department have been taken in for questioning. They were never really loyal to you; they were all only driven by self-interest. Now that they see you're in decline, it won't be long before they spill everything they know." "You said it yourself already. They aren't loyal, just figureheads. They've never had access to the core of Iverson Group, so they won't be able to reveal anything significant." Christopher's coughing grew worse.
Taylor stepped forward and handed him a handkerchief. As Christopher took it, his entire body was wracked with violent tremors. Once the fit subsided, he returned the handkerchief to Taylor.
Taylor's pupils contracted sharply when he saw a dark red blood stain marring the fabric. His heart pounded wildly. He stuffed the handkerchief into his pocket and forced himself to stayposed.

"The police are claiming that your father's death is connected to you. They must have obtained scritical evidence since there is a warrant out for your arrest!" "Mr. Iverson, is your father's death... really connected to you?" The informant tentatively asked.
Christopher closed his eyes as the scene replayed in his mind-the day he watched his father have a heart attack and ultimately die at his feet.
"So what if it was? Over the years, countless people have died by my hand. What's one more?" Christopher said as Taylor helped him sit on the bed. "There's no extradition treaty between our country and Sentania. This is my domain; they can't touchhere." "Don't et." The informant cautioned. "There are still two people in Savrow with immense power who want to see you dead. If they team up with the police to hunt you down in Sentania, you'll be in serious danger!" Christopher's heart throbbed as he thought of Bella. "I understand. Thank you for your concern. Your task isplete. From this moment on, you are no longer in my service, and you don't need to keep monitoring the situation in Savrow. Unless something unexpected happens, I won't be returning there." "Mr. Iverson..." "You've been withfor a long time; I won't let you go just like that. I'll have Taylor deposit a sum of money into your mother's account-enough for you to live out the rest of your life." Chapter 2154 1 "You're wrong!" Christopher chuckled bitterly. "I am exactly that a ruthless, self-serving villain who killed his brother and father,, rat from the gutter, a venomous snake lurking in the dark corners. I've always walked this path alone. I UM never sought anyone's understanding, nor do I need it. Goodbye." With that, he ended the call and turned off his phone.
Chapter 2154 3 Taylor looked at the man before him, his body weakened by illness yet still standing tall. "Perhaps... it would be wise for you to leave Sentania as soon as possible." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
