Chapter 421:

This time, Matteo had deployed top assassins, and Hale’s spies were not on a level high enough to be aware of this mission.

By the time Hale received the news, Matteo’s assassins had already set an unavoidable trap, prepared to hunt down and kill Harlee at the hotel.

Hale’s eyes were devoid of warmth, filled only with relentless ruthlessness and a fierce, bloodthirsty intent. Sutton Potter, Matteo’s subordinate, stood close by, his body trembling with fear. Trained by Hale and not under Matteo’s command, he hadn’t anticipated that Matteo would deploy a squad of top assassins for just one assignment. Such ruthless power was truly frightening.

Sutton said respectfully, “Sir, regarding Matteo’s actions…” Hale suddenly let out a sharp, piercing laugh. Sutton halted mid-sentence, fear taking over as he bowed his head, trying to make himself less noticeable.

Still, Hale’s cold gaze fell on Sutton, sharp and full of mockery.

“Matteo has always allowed me to do as I please, thinking it was his way of showing brotherly love, and that made me believe he would always meet my needs. Today, he gave me a harsh wake-up call, telling me I was too naive and that he looked down on me!”

Upon hearing this, Sutton crouched deeper, his face etched with fear.

“Sir, Matteo has sent out almost all of his top assassins. I’m afraid Miss Sanderson…”

Hale pressed his lips together, his dark eyes cold and unsettling.

He cut in sharply, “Huh, so what if he sends his best assassins? Does he honestly believe Harlee can be taken down by these useless people? Does he really think I’m just a brother at his mercy?”

Sutton’s fear deepened, aware more than anyone of the schemes Hale had orchestrated behind Matteo’s back.

Hale’s presence was ghost-like.

He left no traces wherever he went.

After releasing his anger, Hale fixed a cold look on Sutton.

“What’s the situation with Harlee? Any news? Have those top assassins encountered her?”

Sutton relayed the latest updates.

“Miss Sanderson is currently at the Guardin Hotel. She’s not alone. There’s a man and woman with her. It seems they had expected Matteo to send his top assassins, and so far, they appear untouched.

Furthermore, Miss Sanderson’s skills in evading surveillance are top-notch.

Despite the presence of over a dozen top assassins, she moves in and out of the hotel undetected, evading all attempts to track her…”

An arrogant smile crept over Hale’s lips. That was typical of Harlee.

Even he couldn’t fully predict her plans, so how could Matteo comprehend her fully? But regarding the man reported to be close to her…

A dark spark flashed in Hale’s eyes.

“What about that man I asked you to look into?”

A drop of sweat slid down Sutton’s forehead.

He dared not withhold information, risking his life as he said, “He’s Rhys Green, head of the Green Group in Mogluylia. We’ve exhausted our resources, even tapping into government channels, yet found nothing more than his basic profile.

But…”
