Chapter 174: Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Dana was stunned. “What do you mean? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“The evidence is here. Are you trying to deny it?” Emma said coldly, “Talk! Why did you take her clothes?”

After another round of questioning, the woman wearing the oxygen mask trembled slightly. She reached out to press the emergency alarm.

However, Emma reacted quickly and slapped Dana’s hand away.

Dana tried to scream, but Emma grabbed her neck.

“Who told you to do this? Who killed Dummy?” Emma demanded.

Dana found it difficult to breathe. “I–I don’t know. It’s a mission from the King’s Association.”

“You’re lying,” Emma said.

“I’m not lying...” Dana stammered and coughed. “It’s really the King’s Association. Who else could it be?” Dana was already having difficulty breathing. Her pale face flushed unhealthyly.

At this moment, Liam, who had been standing outside the door, sensed something amiss and walked in.

Seeing this, Liam went forward and reminded, “Emma, they’ll be back soon.”

Emma then let go of Dana. Her expression was cold as she looked down at her. “I’ll let you off this time, but this matter with Justine is not yet over.”

With that, Emma and Liam turned and left.

However, when the door opened, Dana suddenly revealed a strange smirk behind them.

Everything happened extremely quickly.

There was a quiet sound. Something flew past Emma’s ear.

“Watch out.” Out of instinct, Liam subconsciously took a step forward to block Emma.

Poof!

It was a whisper, but it was deadly.

Emma watched helplessly as a silencer shot a 10–centimeter–long acupuncture needle, piercing Liam’s shoulder.

Chapter 174 The other party was very fast. Emma only caught a glimpse before the person disappeared.

Emma was worried about Liam’s health and did not give chase. Although it was just an acupuncture needle, a strong sense of uneasiness arose in her.

“Liam, how are you feeling? I’ll take you home. Hang in there...” Emma’s voice trembled slightly. Liam was hurt for her sake.

Liam’s handsome face had instantly turned pale. But he smiled calmly and comforted, “Emma, don’t be afraid. I’m fine. I’ll be fine after going home and resting for a Emma had never seen such a needle before. However, she had heard the King’s Association had many unknown but deadly secret weapons. Furthermore, she had left the organization for a long time.

The last bit of color left Emma’s face. If it were someone from the King’s Association, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this moment, a sinister laugh came from behind them.

“I’ve already told you that once you join the King’s Association, you’ll be utterly miserable.” Dana stared at Emma. Half of her body hung down from the hospital bed. “Even if you beat me, so what?

“When they find out you have someone you care about and have a weakness, everyone in the King’s Association will hunt him down. Emma, this is the curse of joining the King’s Association. It’s a disgrace. It’s a curse you can’t get rid of for the rest of your life.”

Suddenly, Dana screamed. She widened her eyes in shock. Her hand hung down limply.

Emma looked at Dana in shock. She wasn’t sure what had happened. She could only watch helplessly as the heart of the once insufferably arrogant killer Dana stopped beating right before her.

Dana was dead.

“Liam, hang in there. I’ll bring you back.” Emma gritted her teeth. It was not safe here. She immediately left with Liam.

The acupuncture needle was poisonous and could kill Liam in a few seconds.

Emma was temporarily unable to identify this poison. She could only give Liam a life–saving pill first and quickly return to Icovine Estate.

Liam fell into a coma. Everyone in Icovine Estate was in a panic.

Chapter 174 +5 Levi locked down this news. However, the uneasiness in his heart was growing. “Madam... Will Mr. Hall be okay this time?”

Emma couldn’t be sure. Even she had no cure for this poison. However, Emma knew that since the King’s Association did not kill her, there had to be room for negotiation.

If Emma couldn’t find the cure, no one in the world could... except for that person.

Emma regained her senses and said to Levi, “No matter what the price is, I will save him.” After saying this, she immediately turned and walked out of Icovine Estate.

“Madam, where are you going so late at night?” Levi’s face was filled with worry. He thought, ‘Mr. Hall is unconscious. If anything happened to Mrs. Hall, we will be done for.’

Emma left in the silent night looking determined. She only said, “Levi, no matter what happens, protect Liam.”

After leaving Icovine Estate, Emma ordered her subordinates to protect this place in secret at all costs.

Josiah knew where Emma was going. After guessing her countermeasure, he hesitated for a long time. He knew Emma wouldn’t change her mind once she decided something, but he still couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, are you seriously going to see him alone?”

“Don’t worry. He doesn’t want me dead,” Emma said calmly. Dana was right. If she hadn’t made a name for herself in the International Boxing Competition, Blaze’s identity would not have been noticed so quickly.

But Dana didn’t know the reason that person waited until now to make a move. It was not because he wanted to kill Emma or Liam. Instead, he wanted to use Emma.

That person would not keep someone alive because of human nature or friendship. If someone still had value, he wouldn’t do anything to the person for a while.

Unless it was like Dana... She was drained of her last bit of value.

Emma took a deep breath.

The car drove at high speed. Two hours later, Emma arrived at the brightly lit ancient castle.

Before Emma could enter, she was stopped by a guard at the entrance. “The King’s Association’s leader said he doesn’t want to see you.”

In the night, Emma looked at the guard/indifferently.

Bang!

In the next second, the guard was knocked to the ground.

09.25 Chapter 174 Emma said, “I’m the one who wants to see him, not the other way around.”

Seeing this, everyone came up to stop Emma.

Emma glared at them. “Can you win against me?”

The former Blaze was the number one expert of the King’s Association. Of course, these people knew that they were inferior to her. They were stunned by her aura and no one dared to make a move.

At this moment, the doors of the gothic castle opened. A man in a black suit and a mask clapped his hands. “Blaze, it’s been a few years since we last met. You’ve become increasingly domineering.” That person’s voice was sometimes rough and hoarse, and other times sharp. It was difficult to tell his age.

In reality, no one knew the true identity and gender of the King’s Association’s leader. They only knew that he was a terrifyingly powerful existence. He was also the only one with a cure for the King’s Poison, the strongest and most lethal poison of the King’s Association.

“What did you poison Liam with?” Emma went straight to the point. “Don’t forget, when I promised to capture Dana, you swore to return my freedom.”

“I did. But, so what?” The voice under the mask turned into the rough voice of a middle–aged man. “Dana is dead now. Who’s going to work for me? You’re always the disobedient one. I can only threaten you with the King’s Poison.”

The poison that they used the acupuncture needle to poison Liam was indeed the King’s Poison.
