The gang leader paused, feeling he had said too much to a woman. His voice unintentionally grew
colder “That’s none of your damn business! Just focus on achieving your own goals! Why do you care
about all this?!”
Wendy paused, and her brows furrowed as if grappling with an elusive problem Tsn’t it easy for you
guys to move in and out of this place? Why haven’t you thought about monopolizing it, spreading the
news, finding the right arms dealer? Wouldn’t that be convenient?”
“Find who? The leader has already staked his claim here. If he finds out we’re searching for other arms
dealers, do you think you can withstand the pressure he’ll put on us? And would he even allow other
weapons to enter the checkpoint? It’s different from letting people in
“Enough, enough! I’m wasting my breath talking about this with a woman! The bottom line is it won’t
work. This place has been under his control for nearly a decade. If there were other options, do you
think we’d be waiting for you to show up and suggest them?”
Wendy pursed her lips, and her face flushed with embarrassment Just then, something was thrown at
her from the side, hitting her face Startled, she quickly fell in step behind the gangster
Although Yasmine’s situation was precarious, she remained calm and composed, as if completely
unaware of her circumstances. She quietly listened to the gangster’s words, and her cool, detached
gaze hid a deep contemplation.
The leader here controlled the weapons, even the arms of the central nations of the world. There were
many people with unique abilities in this vast world, but those with this kind of power was almost
unheard of
Once, she had overheard Boyd discussing important matters with several ministers, including issues
regarding the procurement of weapons. The names of the arms dealers she heard were few and far
between.
These were all top–secret matters. The names of the arms dealers were mere codenames, and the
true identities behind them were probably only known to the highest echelons of leadership.
It was well known that the Harper family had been standing strong in Hong Kong for a hundred years,
with clear support from behind But because they were so conspicuous, the higher–ups could not ignore
them and had already implemented regulatory measures
This grey area was a headache for the authorities. Even if the Harper family wanted to extend their
influence here, it wouldn’t be easy
Yet, the true power of the Harper family remained elusive. When Damon managed to infiltrate Boyd’s
presidential estate, it was obvious that he had some sort of support. No matter how bold he was, he
wouldn’t have dared to do it otherwise Plus, it was clear that he and Boyd knew each other
Yasmine had a hunch that this elusive leader was Damon, He must have used some method to evade
the surveillance from above But, Damon had long since been stripped of his management rights in the
Harper family. He had nothing now. If it was him, there should have been some signs of disturbance
here, causing some chaos. With the mixed crowd here, it was inevitable
However, there was nothing.
From the gangster’s tone, there was a sense of respect and distance towards this gang leader, but he
didn’t know the true identity of the leader
Her eyes darkened, and Yasmine smirked. If things were as she suspected… Oh well.
Yasmine remained quiet and composed throughout, but her mind was racing a mile a minute, trying to
piece together a plausible theory
The rest was to risk her own life to validate her suspicions, but Wendy was quicker to speak than to
think. Not long after, she abruptly asked, “Do you guys know who the leader here is? Have you seen
him in person?”
The gangster frowned and replied coldly, “No idea. Out of the hundreds of thousands of people here,
only a few have seen his true face What are you trying to get at with all these questions?”
Wendy shook her head “Nothing”
Yasmine gave a silent, mocking smile. No skills but dreaming of achieving the impossible, she was
overestimating her abilities.
Yasmine was eventually locked up in a dilapidated steel mill at the edge of the city. The place was full
of rusty, weather–beaten metal. It was a fitting place for a kidnapping
How cliche
Yasmine chuckled Who else but her would even care about the setting of her own kidnapping at a time
like this?
After Yasmine was settled in Wendy left some bread and water on her lap before leaving With a cold
laugh, she said, “Don’t starve to death Dont worry even if you die. I’ll make sure it’s when your precious
daughter arrives I’m quite kind hearted, you know I heard you and your daughter have been living
separately for a long time, so if you die together, I’ll have done a good deed and earned myself some
karma, right?”
Yasmine lifted an eyebrow, picked up the bread on her lap, and took a bite Thoughtful of you
Wendy’s expression instantly turned colder
She was utterly disgusted by Yasmine’s calm and collected demeanor, and her unpredictable behavior,
which was identical to Chloes
“I thought you’d put on a show of defiance, refusing to eat anything I give you I didn’t expect you to be
afraid of death after all Her voice dripped with sarcasm, trying her best to humiliate Yasmine
Yet Yasmine just took another bite of her bread im not fighting a war or defending my country There’s
no glory in risk { try_life for nothing! Wha shameful about being afraid of death? Everyone’s afraid of
dying, especially when it’s meaningless”
Wendy laughed coldly “No one does sophistry better than you and your daughter You can make being
afraid of death–sound so noble, it’s like you’re monopolizing the moral high ground
Yasmine put the half–eaten bread back on her lap, picked up the bottle of water, and unscrewed cap
while looking at Wendy with a faint smile “Would you like to hear me say something that’s not so
noble?”
Wendy arched an eyebrow, signaling for her to continue. The grin on Yasmine’s face became more
pronounced as she leisurely sipped her water
Because only if I’m alive, can I witness your inevitable downfall. For instance… how will you meet your
end?”
As long as she could keep on living, she was hell–bent on eradicating this persistent witch from this
world. She was after Chloe’s life, and even had the audacity to target her children. She had crossed a
line with her a long time ago.
Yasmine was just biding her time, waiting for the perfect moment.
