Lana waited for a very long time before the boy spoke up again. “What happens now? Is this the

end of this case?”

“Of course not,” she immediately replied.

How can we do that when there’s so much involved in the case? If we close it just because the

other party has found a scapegoat we’d be letting them off easy!

“As far as Interpol is concerned, your uncle’s case can be closed since they’ve arrested the criminal

organization responsible,” Lana continued. “On our end, however, the police will continue

investigating Hugo Tilan for his involvement in several illegal activities. Now, as for you…”

Should I suggest transferring Matteo back? After all, his identity is far too special.

Unfortunately, before Lana could say anything more, Matteo interrupted coldly, “If there’s nothing

else, HI hang up now.”

“Wait!” Lana shouted.

My goodness. This boy scared me half to death!

Left with no other choice, she reluctantly added, “Don’t hang up yet, Matteo. I have a mission for

you.”

When Samson made his way to the restroom a few minutes later, he noticed Theo had already

come out.“Hey, what took you so long? I saw those bodyguards entering the school. Don’t we need to go

over?”

Confused by Samson’s question, Theo merely gave him a quizzical glance.

“I’m talking about the other Tilan bodyguards. They’ve all gone into the building,” Samson explained

as he stared at the latter. “Since we’re working for Ms. Rosalie, shouldn’t we join them?”

Odd. I wonder what Theo’s thinking about right now. Is he even focused on this matter?

As it turned out, Theo’s mind wasn’t on that at all.

In the end, Theo decided against going inside and told Samson to go ahead. He then rode his

motorcycle back to Tilan Palace.

Unfortunately, he bumped into Zylan the moment he returned, and needless to say, the latter was

surprised. “Huh? Why are you back?”

Theo stood quietly in front of him before blurting out, “Ms. Tilan wanted me to get something for

her.”

Zylan couldn’t be bothered to probe any further and promptly left the palace with his men and Hugo.

Unbeknownst to him, it was that fateful afternoon when someone infiltrated the penthouse during

their absence.

Thankfully, it didn’t take long before the breach was discovered.

novelbin“What? Did you just say someone’s broken into the penthouse? Get our men to check it out this

instance!”

Hugo bellowed when he heard the news, his expression dark and menacing.Zylan, on the other hand, had turned pale as a sheet and quickly left for Tilan Palace with a handful

of subordinates.

However, when they arrived, they were told that the bodyguards in Tilan Palace had already found

the reason for the breach.

“It wasn’t a person. It was a cat.”

“A cat?” Zylan asked doubtfully, not entirely convinced that they had a feline invader.

Given the laser defense system we have in place, not even a fly or a trace of gas would be able to

penetrate it, let alone a cat. No, something smells fishy. I have to check this out myself.

Without further ado, Zylan rushed upstairs to investigate the matter, only to find blood droplets on

the floor.

He followed the trail and soon discovered the remains of a dismembered cat at the penthouse

entrance, much to his surprise.

Well, I’ll be d*mned! It really was a cat!

Meanwhile, Samson saw Theo again when he walked out of the school building with a disheveled

and bruised Rosalie in tow.

Having just gotten out of a fierce fight, the latter glared at Theo. Where have you been?”

Theo’s face blanched almost instantly. “I—”

Smack!

Alas, Rosalie slapped him hard across the face before he could finish his words.Naturally, Samson was stunned and horrified.

He gaped at how forceful the slap was and was about to say something when he saw Rosalie

wearing a terrifying scowl.

Just like that, he lost all courage to speak up.

“Listen carefully. If this ever happens again, your punishment won’t be just a slap,” Rosalie warned,

her voice cold and stern. “I’ll end you with my bare hands!”

With that, she strode off, leaving Theo rooted to the spot.

Even though the latter didn’t react much, anyone watching closely would be able to see the

darkness in his eyes, which was even more frightening than Rosalie’s slap.

One thing was for sure-neither of them was going to forget the slap.

Soon, the group returned to Tilan Palace.

Due to the penthouse incident in the afternoon, Hugo’s schedule got delayed, and he ended up

staying the night outside. Of course, Zylan accompanied him.

Because of that, no one else brought up Theo’s surprise visit to Tilan Palace earlier in the day.

When evening came, and Samson returned to their room, he realized there was a faint smell of

blood from the trash can. However, no matter how much he searched, he couldn’t find anything

suspicious.

In the end, the whole matter was tucked away and forgotten.
