Chapter 646

I frowned when I saw her two older brothers walking toward me. "Fiona, don't you ever make sure

that the person you want to teach a lesson is someone you can afford to offend before you mess

with them?”

"Make sure?" She chuckled coolly as she said, "Who do you think you are?"

I sighed and grabbed my phone to call Carlson. Before the call was connected, I said coldly, "I've

warned you, but I don't really have a choice if you aren’t going to listen."

After a pause, I continued saying, "You're the reason why your dad has to go home and live out his

days. Just don’t blame me."

She thought I was putting on a brave act and said to her brothers, "Quick, take her away and teach

her a lesson."

The call connected, and Carlson smiled as he asked, "M y dear daughter, to what do I owe this

surprise?"

I smirked. "Uncle, Zachary Cinny, a well-off civilian in Zenon, pockets nearly all the money allocated

to help the poor for himself. You should send someone over to conduct an investigation.”

Carlson's voice grew solemn. "Are you alright?"

I smiled. "I'm alright. They wouldn't dare do much to m e."

"I'll head over tonight. Take care of your safety, and wait for me to take care of everything."

I nodded and hung up the phone.

Fiona still thought I was putting on an act and said sarcastically, “Wanda Lane, you’re a single

mother with no social power or background. Stop pretending t o be someone you’re not."

She gazed at the two men beside her, who had no idea if they should take action or not. She said,

"Brothers, bring her to an isolated area and treat her well. It doesn't matter if you kill her. I'll take

responsibility for whatever happens."

The two men still had some sanity left. They gazed hesitantly at me as they said, "What’s your last

name?"

I raised an eyebrow. "My name’s Wanda Lane. Didn't Miss Cinny tell you that?"

The two men seemed stunned as they exchanged looks and said, "I think there's someone named

Carlson Schumann in the higher-ups. Dad met him during a meeting in the city. He said..."

Then, he extended his finger toward the sky.

Fiona had a look of disdain on her face as she said," You two are overthinking things. She's been in

Zenon for three years. If she really had connections to the higher-ups, she wouldn’t have to stay

here for three years. No one ever comes to visit her and her kids."

"Hah!" A cold chuckle rang out before a cold voice said, "You refuse to be convinced until faced with

the grim reality."

Keith said this as he walked out of the shop with Theo beside him. The man had a dark, brooding

look in his eyes that added to his frosty aura.

Fiona looked stunned as she hurriedly gazed at Theo and Keith before saying, "President Grant,

Assistant Lang."

Theo did not spare her even a glance as he immediately looked at me. The look in his eyes

darkened momentarily as he asked, "Have you recovered from your injury?"

I nodded.

Keith gazed at the two tall men standing on either side of me and said, "If you two are smart, you'd

apologize and go home to think of a way out of this mess."

The two men were not idiots and immediately knew Theo was not an average person when they

sensed the aura Theo emanated. They immediately bowed down t o me and said apologetically,

"Miss Lane, we're so sorry for offending you just now. Please don’t hold it against us."

"Hurry up and leave," Keith said.

The two men gazed at Fiona. "Fiona, stop making a

fuss. Hurry up and return home with us.”

The look on Fiona's face turned ugly as she said to me, "Wanda Lane, you're just a seductress,

aren't you?

Maybe...”

I did not want to pay more attention to her and quickly walked toward the shop. However, she was

not going to let me go so easily. She grabbed my arm a s she said unrelentingly, "Why are you

running? Didn't you say you’re very capable? Why don't you call him over? I'd like to see who you

can contact to launch an investigation against my dad."
