Bellaâs heart raced, and she pressed her lips together. âThat seems unlikely. Iâve looked into Maxwell's background. He used to
be a mercenary and then worked as a royal guard before climbing to his
current position with his outstanding combat skills. It wouldn't be so
easy to kill him. Besides, he wouldnât have come to Savrow alone. He
must have brought reinforcements. Even if Christopher wants to
make a move, it won't be so simple.â
Although Bella said so, Justinâs words still left her feeling uneasy.
Justin could see through her thoughts and gently held her hand, reassuring her with a calm voice, âThe enemies arenât that
powerful.
Even if we canât defeat them all at once, itâs alright. Time is in our favor. They are unaware of all our strategies while we operate
covertly. This situation is an improvement from before. Right now, we need to focus on dealing with Shannon to seek justice for
Linny and my mother...â
As he spoke about his mother, Justinâs voice quivered, and his eyes
turned red.
But in front of Bella, he maintained complete control over his feelings.

subjecting Winston to intense questioning for nearly ten hours

Despite their expertise in interrogations, they were struggling to break
through the defenses of this man, who had remarkable psychological
resilience and evident malevolence.
Whether employing intimidation tactics or offering reduced
sentences as incentives, they were unable to coax Winston into
revealing the identity of the mastermind behind it all.
As the stalemate continued, Bella and Justin hurried to the police
station overnight.
âBella, Iâm sorry...â
Ralph tugged at his hair in frustration, his handsome face marred
with worry.
âEven | was of no use. We still canât get him to confess! If heâs intentionally dragging this out, even if the prosecution eventually
charges him, we won't have direct evidence to accuse Shannon of
hiring a hitman. The leads will be completely cut off!â
How could they talk about helping Justin seek revenge in such a

âDon't be so hard on yourself, Ralph. Youâve already done your best.
It's just that Winston is truly evil and sly with no remorse.â
Bella took a deep breath and asked, âRalph, can you ask your
superiors if Justin and | can meet Winston?â
âBoth of you?!â Ralph was extremely surprised.
