At Victoria Harbor, Vince’s phone suddenly rang as soon as he sat in his office.


    His expression changed repeatedly after he picked up the call. After some time, a horrible expression


    settled on his face.


    “What’s going on? Did the assassination fail as well?” Lexie said, frowning,


    Vince’s face darkened in an instant.


    “Not just that, but the killer from the House of Phantoms was caught alive too.”


    “I was informed that the killer’s unconscious right now. They haven’t got anything out just yet.”


    “Selena already gave Lord York a call, so he’ll dispatch a few interrogation experts.”


    “If anything goes ording to their n, they’ll connect the dots to us sooner orter.”


    “Even if there’s no solid proof, it’ll affect my ns badly.”


    “The rumors might just stop me from rising to power.”


    Vince couldn’t help but rub his temples in displeasure. He never expected things would be this


    troublesome.


    His ns to kill Harvey failed. On top of that, Selena was still alive as well.


    At this moment, he was questioning his own strength and power.


    Lexie was horrified to hear Vince’s words.


    “Vince, we need the killer dead no matter what!” she eximed coldly.


    “Even if that can’t happen, that killer needs to be with us!”


    “If not, we’ll be in big trouble!”


    “I know.”


    Vince sighed before standing up, then paced around the hall while crossing his arms. After a long while,


    he opened a safe that held an encrypted phone.


    After entering the password and verifying both his fingerprints and iris, a number was immediately


    dialed.


    “What is it?”


    A severe voice could be heard from the other side of the phone.


    “I just got word. The killer Madam York hired from the House of Phantoms failed.”


    “I need you to bring the killer back for questioning.”


    “I don’t want anybody to smear my name using this incident.”


    The other side of the phone was silent for a brief


    moment.


    “Remember, Vince. This is thest time you’ll order me around as the young lord of the Yorks.”


    “I’ll do whatever it takes to help you.”


    “But after this, if you’re still not the new head of the family…”


    “We’re done.”


    A cold expression shed on Vince’s face. Nevertheless, he replied with a warm tone.

    “Don’t worry, Julian.”


    “I won’t do anything to hurt you.”


    Dusk was soon approaching. Rain poured down from the gloomy sky, turning the already annoying


    weather into more of a nuisance.


    The bleak autumn wind signaled theing of winter.


    Right at this moment, the entrance of the Yorks’ garden vi was filled with close to twenty Toyota


    Alphards in woond colors. The cars revved their engines, the sound reverberating loudly in the air.


    A group of men with loaded firearms kicked the car doors open from the inside and jumped out


    menacingly.


    They were the strongest trump card belonging to the Yorks of Hong Kong, the Sentries of York!


    The bodyguards posted around the garden vi exchanged nces. Upon seeing the new arrivals, they


    immediately gave up the idea of blocking the armed men’s path.


    The Sentries of York had an extraordinary status within the family, after all.
