Semua Bab Sorry, Too Late: Bab 341 - Bab 350

Cain was furious. "How dare they!" he roared. "Who would dare hire assassins to kill my son? What's their name?" Cain finally realized that an invisible hand was pulling the strings and setting everything in motion, while he was the pawn on the chess board.Cain was the overlord of Silverton and king of Silveraberg. Other than the powers in Uppersea and Imperia, there was almost no one he feared. And yet now his son was dead, and he had been played like a pawn. The humiliation was unbearable.Cain and the others left Hugo's place.On the way back, the others quickly tried to calm him. "Sir, calm down. If we want revenge for Mr. Gabriel, we have to find out who the mastermind is first."If Cain flew into a rage and attacked all the major factions in Silverton, it would trigger a catastrophe. Never mind finding the person behind it all—it would only alert even greater powers."I…" Cain's fury couldn't be calmed.Ciel added, "And if Hugo's telling the truth, Evan's not a suspect

Realization hit James instantly, and his face fell. His children looked no better. Their faces were twisted, their eyes burning with anger. Their family had to eke out a living through begging on the streets thanks to Evan. The last thing they wanted was for Evan to get away with it."We need to come up with a plan to kill that bastard while Cain's still around!""Yeah! We'll do whatever it takes, even if we have to frame him!"Darius' men came back. They had been looking into Evan's case all this time."What? Evan's not with the Solbergs?""And Gabriel was going to the Solbergs' place the day he died?"The Norwoods were stunned. The pieces of information struck them like lightning."Maybe… Maybe Mr. Gabriel found something, but he was killed before he could even set off!"The Norwoods buzzed with excitement. Finally, they had something they could use against Evan. "Dig deeper!"At the same time, another group of people found their interest piqued by Evan. They claimed to be

Now that all ties between them had been severed, the three heiresses no longer had any right to interfere in Evan's social life. He could see whoever he wanted, date whoever he wanted.Anya lowered her head. "Maybe he's surrounded by all kinds of beautiful women now, Hazel."Hazel and Roxanne's faces fell. Anya had a point. If even one of Evan's friends possessed beauty on Lyra's level, then what did that say about the rest of the women around him? The more they thought about it, the worse they felt.They'd seen women like that before, namely Estelle and Sylvie. Fortunately, they hovered around the owner of No. 1. That wasn't the heiresses' business. They only enjoyed the drama.It was a different story with Lyra. She was firmly on Evan's side and delivered a warning to them on his behalf. She was a powerful contender, and it shook the heiresses. They were forced to face the fact that they knew nothing about Evan since his departure.They wondered how he rose so much after leaving

Apollo added, "Prodigies would kill for this opportunity!"He played the good cop to Quirinus and Geoffrey's intimidation. Most people of power would have caved by then and told them everything.Evan, however, couldn't care less about their offer. "Don't care. Not interested. If you want my details, go talk to Homeland Security, not me."With that, he turned away, much to everyone's surprise. They were dumbfounded. This refusal was not something they expected, but Evan didn't even hesitate.They turned to Lyra, but she too was nonplussed. She'd told Evan everything about the Department on the way here, yet he still said no.Sylvie, of course, was overjoyed. She made faces at the trio. "See? Told you he couldn't care less about your Department. You're nothing to him!"This was satisfying. Cathartic, even. Sylvie thought, 'That's what you get for posing!'The trio snapped out of it, and Quirinus bellowed, "Hold it right there!" His eyes burned with fury. Evan's refusal was a dir

Ciel and the others gasped in shock upon hearing those words, their eyes wide with fear.'Mr. Solomon's senior… He's the real deal… It doesn't matter who murdered Gabriel or is related to the incident now. His arrival means that vengeance is guaranteed.'After Ciel left to do as he was instructed, Cain heard thunder roaring outside his window. A streak of lightning tore through the sky as it began to rain cats and dogs.Cain walked to the window, gazing at the violent storm. His expression was cold as he murmured, "Gabriel, Alistair is about to arrive. Whoever killed you… won't escape."For the people in Silverton, these past two days had been nothing short of a waking nightmare.Even though Gabriel's killer had supposedly been found, Cain still sent his disciples to investigate every single family of influence. Silverton had been turned upside down. However, not a single person dared to stop him or voice their displeasure.No one knew what was going on, but they knew enough to k
