Upon hearing this, Blake froze. Then, he asked, “Why? Did something happen?”
“Tiara was abducted. She should now be in the Emperor’s research laboratory The military has
mobilized. Should they fail, we will force our way in to save her and burn down the place while we’re at
it.”
James’ face was dark.
All this while, the Emperor had been targeting him, but James remained passive.
It was understandable if the Emperor targeted James, yet time and again, the Emperor made moves on
the people around him.
First, it was Thea. Now, it was Tiara,
Tiara was a kind-hearted girl, and James had let her down once. If anything happened to her, he would
feel remorseful for a lifetime.
It was time to show the Emperor that he was no pushover.
“Alright, I’ll be there in three hours.”
Blake hung up the phone.
James tossed his phone aside. He leaned on the sofa and covered his face.
At the same time, in the military region…
The Blithe King mobilized the army.
Hundreds of helicopters headed toward the mountain near the border of Lily City.
In a mountain near the border of Lily City…
This was a research laboratory. Fully-armed men were stationed outside.
In an office in the base…
Scar frowned upon seeing the information his henchmen returned with. Looking at one of his
henchmen before him, he asked, “Did you really find this on the girl who’s been by James’ side all this
while?”
A thirty-year-old-looking man was standing there. His name was Nasir Mozart, one of Scar’s
subordinates.
Nasir nodded. “It’s true, Scar. I even abducted her. She’s now in the basement.”
Hearing this, Scar frowned. “How weird… You told me that you were following her all day. Apart from
Herbal Biotech, she didn’t go anywhere else. How did she get her hands on this piece of information?”
“I-I’m not sure…
“Alright now, you’re dismissed.” Scar waved.
“Understood.”
Nasir turned to leave.
After he left, Scar pulled his phone out and called the Emperor. Soon, the call went through. ”
Something happened, Boss.”
The Emperor asked in a cold voice, “What do you mean by that?”
Scar hurriedly explained, “My subordinates captured the girl who has been by James’ side all this
while. Her name is Tiara Youngblood. We found a piece of information on her. The locations of all the
research laboratories within Sol were clearly stated on it. Although I can’t be sure of its authenticity,
some of the information is accurate, which includes the research laboratory I’m in charge of.”
Upon hearing this, the Emperor exclaimed, “Is that true?”
“Yes.”
“How many research laboratories were stated on it?”
After glancing through it, Scar replied, “Eighteen.”
Hearing this, the Emperor’s face darkened. He never expected that James was well aware of what he
was doing. James even learned of the number of research laboratories under his control after some
investigation.
Scar asked, “What should we do now, Boss?”
After contemplating for quite some time, the Emperor said, “Leave the girl alone for now. I will head
there at once and interrogate her myself. We’ll use her to lure James here and put an end to this fiasco
once and for all.”
The Emperor was enraged.
This only happened because Reign had been merciful back then.
James had to die
This was the only way out for the Emperor.
