?Chapter 454:


    Dale was sprawled on the floor, gripping his right leg, his expression contorted in pain.


    “I don’t have any connections to any organization,” he gasped. “A woman approached me with a deal to help me take over the castle if I cooperated with them. They would only im half of the treasure underneath.”


    Katelyn, her impatience mounting, pressed on. “What did she look like? Can you remember anything more?”


    Dale clenched his teeth and gave a slight nod. “She was stunning, dressed entirely in ck, with bright red lipstick.”


    Katelyn’s frustration grew. “Give me a full description of her features, not just vague details.”


    Dale cradled his head, sounding defeated. “That’s all I remember, really. Nothing morees to mind.” At that moment, he had been so captivated by the chance to acquire the wealth that he hadn’t paid attention to the other details.


    Vincent, showing no mercy, swiftly aimed his gun at Kenny. “Now you. Exin what this organization is about.”


    Kenny, equally frightened, lifted his hands in surrender. He stuttered, “I’ll talk, just lower the gun. It could go off by mistake.”


    Vincent’s gaze remained unyielding. “Three.”


    “I’ll spill everything!” Kenny gulped nervously. “A woman also approached me. She promised me a hefty sum to impersonate the Earl’s son under the mask. She didn’t share much—just that I’d be paid well if I yed the part convincingly. I had no idea that acting as the Earl’s son would mean dealing with such an enormous castle!” By the end of his confession, Kenny was nearly crying. Originally, the allure of money had blinded him, andter, the grandeur of the castle had tempted him.


    Now, he felt trapped, unable to escape even if he wanted to. “How did you get in touch with this woman? What did she look like?”


    ????????’?? ?????? ??????????: ???????????ν??????????????


    Kenny concentrated, attempting to remember. “She was incredibly beautiful. Truly memorable.”


    Katelyn’s patience was wearing thin. She spoke through gritted teeth, “Focus! I want details!”


    Kenny’s voice broke into sobs. “I don’t know, I really don’t know anything more. I can’t remember. Please, just let me go. I made a mistake getting involved.”


    Vincent finally lowered his weapon. Though they had uncovered Dale’s deceptions, they stillcked concrete details to unravel the mystery fully.


    They still had no solid evidence. Instead, their pursuit had only deepened the mystery surrounding the T Organization, making matters even moreplicated. What exactly was this group? They seemed like phantoms, always one step ahead, thwarting their every move.


    The sense of exposure, with the enemy hidden in the shadows, sent shivers down Vincent’s spine. Despite this, he remained resolute in his mission to dismantle the organization. Just then, the man in ck subtly shifted his stance.


    He knew he couldn’t linger much longer; he needed to return to the hospital to check on Elora. Jaxen, who had been watching him intently, noticed his intent to escape and yelled, “He’s making a run for it!”


    The man in ck clenched his teeth and quickened his pace.


    However, Vincent stood his ground, raised his gun calmly, and shot the man in the leg. The bullet shattered his leg bone, and he copsed to the ground, screaming in pain. Jaxen immediately moved in, securing him with a rope and binding him tightly. Crouching before the man, Jaxen smirked. “Don’t even think about escaping. You won’t get the chance.”


    The man in ck, drenched in cold sweat, gasped. “Kill me, torture me—do whatever you wish, but first, tell me about the princess. She’s not well. The doctors warned she might lose her sanity.”


    Katelyn’s gaze sharpened as she responded, “The T Organization already made an attempt on Elora’s life. We intercepted it, which is why she was rushed into the emergency room. If you truly care about your princess, help us locate the members of that organization.”


    The many there, his tone filled with disbelief. “The T Organization? That name sounds so familiar. I’m sure I’ve heard it somewhere.”<fn79f5> Original content can be found at find[?]ovel</fn79f5>


    Jaxen urged him urgently, “Focus. Recall where you’ve heard it. It’s critical for your princess’s safety!”


    But before the man could answer, several darts flew in through the window!
