Chapter 241 Letâs Survive First
âI⦠I didnât want to come here initially, it was my friend who brought me.â Elva explained briefly,
âDerrick, did my leg break again?â
A lump caught in Derrickâs throat.
He glanced at her leg, sighed slightly, and nodded gently, âThe doctor said we need to replace the
prosthetic. Iâve already asked for leave from school for you, but this happening right after the start of
the term has made the principal very unhappy with you.â
Elva lowered her head in shame.
She didnât dare to tell Derrick the truth, let alone let him seek justice for her.
The matter about Horace, she could only swallow hard and keep it to herself, no one dared to mention
it.
At the Johnson familyâs party, the atmosphere remained lively. People were gathered in small groups,
discussing topics of their own interest, and no one paid attention to this minor incident.
The incident with Elva did not have serious consequences because Derrick discovered it in time.
Due to the deliberate praise of the Johnson family, Claudia became famous and was the celebrity of
the entire Vencumfield socialite circle that night.
Having declined the person who offered her a toast, Claudia sat on the sofa, somewhat weary.
Waldron sat casually next to her, holding his drink, his long legs crossed, laughing with amusement.
âClaudia, did you know Magnus?â
He had just seen Claudia and Magnus apparently having a chat.
That man wore a mask and face covering wherever he went, acting extremely pretentious, as if he
couldnât bear to be seen by others. Although he was curious about such people, he didnât have a good
impression of them.
Thinking of Magnus, Claudiaâs brow twitched slightly.
âWaldron, did you feel like he was a person?â
âLike who?â Waldron squinted, âEdmond?â
âExcept for the name, nothing else was similar.â
Waldronâs smirk was nonchalant. Although he was grateful to Edmond
for saving his sister, it didnât mean he wished the man to come back from the dead.
My sister would definitely be happier with Horace than with him.
âSis, Edmond is already dead, he canât possibly have a resurrection armor every time from the Lamont
family, can he?â
Tristenâs resurrection was already a miracle. If Edmond could survive being bombed, he would really
have to question whether he was living in a magical world.
âLetâs not even discuss whether he could survive or not, even if his death could be faked, what would
be the purpose?â
Such a great effort was made to do something, there must have been a purpose.
Claudia remained silent, realizing that what Magnus was smoking wasnât an e-cigarette, and slightly
pursed her lips.
Edmond, afraid of fire, had always smoked e-cigarettes, while Magnus, far from fearing fire, constantly
fiddled with a lighter in his hand.
Seeing Claudia like this, Waldron paused slightly, âYouâre about to marry Horace, even if Edmond really
came back to life, you wouldnât plan to abandon Horace, would you?â
Claudia chuckled, âWeâll have to wait until he comes back to life to
discuss that.â
Could it really come back to life?
Waldron smiled without a word.
âBy the way Waldron, I was going to attend the organizationâs meeting tomorrow. Could you explain it to
my grandparents for me then?â
Only Waldron knew that she was a member of the Enigma organization. The power structure of
Vencumfield was complex, and she didnât want to fully reveal her identity yet.
Hearing that she was going to organize a meeting, Waldron raised his eyebrows in curiosity, âYou guys
actually have meetings? Donât worry, Iâll find an excuse for you tomorrow, they definitely wonât find out.â
Claudia nodded:
She hadnât appeared in the organization for several years. Last time, Pedro even said that rumors were
circulating in the organization that she had died, and they were preparing to elect a new leader.
Even if she didnât want to show up, she had to make an appearance in the organization tomorrow
In the living room of the Flemingâs manor, Magnus sat in a chair, looking at the disheveled Eileen, his
eyes narrowing slightly.
âDid you say the Enigma organizationâs conference is tomorrow?â
âYes, I know the place. I can take you there if you want, Mr. Lamont.â
A glint of ferocity flashed in Eileenâs eyes.
Anyway, she was no longer a part of the organization, she was going to risk everything tomorrow.
She, Claudia, was also a member of the organization. She was, so why should she be ostracized by
Claudia?
Even if she, Claudia, was a senior executive, she still had to report it.
She just wouldnât believe that she, Claudia, had no dirt on her.
She was not having a good time, and she absolutely couldnât let Claudia have one either!
