The point was, if Terry died, would she be able to find another man that could move her heart?
There was no doubt that Terry had to die because he was going against her father. But before Terry
died, Isabelle wanted to have some fun with him.
“Father, don‘t worry. I‘ll find a way.”
The father–daughter pair walked further away as they talked.
Meanwhile, Terry sat on the couch, and a murderous intent filled his eyes.
If it had not been for the fact that Elder Maurice was in control of Hestia Border‘s economic lifeline,
Terry would have sent Elder Maurice and his family to jail long ago.
Unfortunately, Terry had not built a solid foundation. Hence, he could not simply lay his hand on the
Black Party‘s top management.
The only power he had was military power.
Political and economic power needed to go hand–in hand. He could not lack either one.
If Terry wanted to execute his reformation in Hestia smoothly, he had to control its economy.
Just then, the Eastern lady‘s words echoed in Terry‘s mind…
Her words made sense.
He had read the newspaper and noticed that Cairnstanians were pretty good at devising economic
plans. Perhaps that woman could be of great help to him.
“Get over here.”
One of the bodyguards quickly went up to Terry.
“Yes, Mr. Terry?”
“Bring…” Terry was about to say the lady‘s name when he realized that he had no idea what her name
was.
Perhaps the lady had introduced herself before, but he did not have the slightest impression of her.
“Do you still remember the Eastern lady that came here a few days ago?” The bodyguard nodded and
said, “Yes, I do. Louis has found where she lives…”
He caught a glimpse of light in Terry‘s eyes. “Ask him to find out her occupation…”
“She works as… Um…” The bodyguard was embarrassed. He faked a cough and continued. “We
rarely come across such a beautiful Eastern lady in this place, so we were attracted to her. As a result,
Louis has gathered information about her on our behalf…”
Terry’s gaze turned cold. “Tell the rest that they mustn‘t have the slightest evil thought about that lady.
She‘s my business partner.”
The bodyguard was shocked. In his heart, he was relieved that he had not revealed anything
outrageous in his speech. If eyes could kill, Terry‘s razor–sharp gaze would stab him to death.
He took a deep breath and said, “Roger. I‘ll inform the rest of them.”
“After informing them, invite that lady over to the mansion.”
After Terry briefly gave his order, he went up to his study room on the second floor with his hands at the
back.
In fact, the bodyguard had long learned about Adina‘s story from Louis. They had gathered most of her
information except her background and her name.
Meanwhile, Adina waited for her children‘s return anxiously. Finally, a car stopped before the mansion
entrance. Her children and Karl got out of the car.
After the car was driven away, Adina rushed out and hugged her children. “Georgie, AI, are you
alright?”
