Chapter 427


    Just as the Battle Warrior Department’s press conference ended and the people of Swallowston were


    monitoring Mandy’s abduction case closely, the Battle Warrior Department suddenly received calls from


    the City Guardian Division and Internal Affairs.


    The City Guardian Division and Internal Affairs requested for War Legate Draco to stand down and for


    Daniel to make a public apology to them. They wanted the Battle Warrior Department to focus on its


    own duties and not intervene with unrted


    matters


    Daniel did not make any substantial reply when he received the requests.


    Meanwhile, in the watchful eyes of Swallowston’s citizens, the car that Mandy was in had already been


    towed away from the mountain road in the northern suburbs.


    A gang was stationed behind a pile of boulders on Mount Cirro. There were people on guard in the


    surrounding forest who were watching the area vigntly with their guns out.


    Mandy, dressed in her formal business suit, was bound andying on the ground. The staff members


    on the trip with her were sitting on the ground with their heads lowered. They looked dejected.


    They had not expected to encounter such a situation on the way back from apanying Mandy to


    Southrive on a business trip. At this very moment, they felt that their lives were at stake.


    More than ten guns were alimed at them and they could die at any time from a gunshot.


    Mandy, on the other hand, was considerably calmn. After all, she had experienced all sorts of situations


    in life. She sat on the ground and did not utter a word.


    Meanwhile, a middle–aged man with crude facial features and a savage expression walked out of the


    forest with more than ten subordinates in tow. This man was Sheldon, regarded by the people of Navia


    as a demon who killed without remorse.


    Sheldon had just returned from an inspection tour and now felt more at ease to find that no federation


    guards had been mobilized. He made his way to Mandy, squatted, and clutched Mandy by the lower


    jaw to forcefully turn her face toward him.


    Sheldon churkled and said, “Ms. Mandy, you’ve be one of Southrive’s wealthiest at such a young


    age. You trust hold quite the status, and you’re so pretty that I can’t hear to kill you!”


    Mandy stared at Sheldon and said, “You’ve murdered quite a number of people, haven’t you? My death


    would just be a drop in the bucket.”

    “Hahaha!” Sheldon raised his head andughed.


    He loosened his grip over Mandy and said, “Frankly, if I weren’t bound by duty, I’d take you right this


    moment. You’re so beautiful. It’d be a waste for me not to sleep with you.


    “Oh, another thing, Ms. Mandy. I heard that you were married but your husband passed away at a


    young age. Is that true?” Sheldon asked with a grin.


    “Screw you!” Mandy said in rage. She had indeed married but her husband passed away from an


    illness in less than two years after they got hitched.


    Mandy was thirty–one years old this year. Even though she was one of Southrive’s wealthiest people,


    she had experienced all sorts of turmoils in life that many ordinary people would never experience.


    She had fallen in love with a man in her university days and they had nned to get married after


    graduation. Yet, an unexpected rum of events made herse everything. Her husband suddenly came


    down with a severe illness that rendered Jalen bedridden.


    Mandy made the bold choice to stay with him despite her family members‘ resistance. She married him


    and their wedding was held in the hospital.
