Chapter 447
Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals
Chapter 447 A Hundred Million â100 million dollars is too much.â
Miru frowned.
Even Darcy was shocked.
100 million dollars for a piece of intelligence was daylight robbery.
Shane shook his head and said with a smile, âIâm not asking for a lot. Mr. Cummingham is the underworld kingpin whose influence extended to the South River state. His passing is more than meets the eye. Iâm putting my people at risk to investigate his death.â
Miru was without a word.
The key players of Lefteria Group stripped her of power, so she had no access to funds.
âIf you find the price expensive, youâre welcome to leave, Ms. Scarlet. I wonât charge you for the drinks. We are all friends.
Thereâs no telling if we will have business deals in the future.â
While talking, Shane showed them the door.
The man may seem friendly and approachable, but he was a seasoned professional who knew what he was doing.
â100 million dollars, it is, Mr. Blanc,â Darcy got up and said.
She believed 100 million dollars was worth confirming whether Kaze was framed.
If that was not enough, Darcy was willing to fork out more to prove Kazeâs innocence. That was on the premise that he was framed.
Kaze had always been there during her darkest moments. He was by +25 BONUS her side. He protected her.
Miru glanced at Darcy in silence.
âYouâre straightforward, and I like it. So, thatâs decided then.â
Shane clapped and added, âI have a rule. I will need half the payment in advance.â
Seeing that Miru was on board, Darcy nodded. âAlright. Iâll wire the money now.â
She gave Riley a call to move 50 million dollars from Quartet Groupâs corporate funds.
Since Darcy took over Quartet Group, she had become a VIP client with the banks.
The money was paid out right after a brief verification.
Shane asked Darcy to convert the 50 million dollars into Bitcoins and completed the transaction in virtual currency.
âHow long before we get the truth, Mr. Blanc?â Darcy asked.
âDonât worry, Ms. Quint. It wonât take long,â Shane said co As his network of intelligence expanded across the South Riv he had his sources in Lilyrose.
He knew many would acquire intel upon learning of Alanâs death, he got his men on the case right away.
It never occurred to him that Miru and Darcy would be the first to come and seek his help.
âAre we heading back to Lilyrose, Miru?â Darcy asked.
Miru shook her head. âWe should wait in Melrose for the update. Danger lurks in Lilyrose now.â
+25 BONUS Ambitious members of Lefteria Group simmered, poised to seize control at her godfatherâs death.
Cronus, an underworld kingpin, set his sights on reigning the criminal world solo too.
Lefteria Group was struggling internally and externally.
Miru wanted to stay away from the fuss for now.
Darcy nodded, wanting to get an update from Shane as soon as possible.
The next day, Leo arrived at River Watcher Inn at the break of dawn.
He said a little prayer to Alan before asking his chauffeur, âWhere is Miru? She should be here with our godfather.â
âShe went to Melroseâs logistics park with Kazeâs wife, Darcy,â the chauffeur replied.
d.â
âWhy did she go there in the middle of the night? She said she wanted to stay with our godfather as long as possible before he was Leo said disgruntledly.
The chauffeur responded, âSir, that is Shaneâs territory. He ow biggest underground intelligence agency in the South River state must be trying to find the mole.â
Leo felt his skin crawl.
There was nothing Shane could not find out in the South River state. The evidence would quickly trace back to him.
Miruâs knowledge would not kill him.
However, Jeremiah would finish him with a blow when he learned the truth.
There was no way Leo could survive against Jeremiah.
âContact Shane now. I want to talk to him.â
Leoâs eyes flickered with murderous intent.
