Chapter 149
Seeing that Veronica was fighting her exhaustion because of anxiety for their children and family''s
safety, Rawlf brought her first to a sleeping quarter assuring her that everything is under control.
He didn''t leave until he saw that Veronica fell asleep.
He changed first from another set of clothes before going to talk to d, his most trusted man in
the Persian force who at the same time managed the team. d is a very serious man however, he
has the habit of wearing butler suits.
Other people who just met him would think he is just a butler and not the second inmand of
the vagabond Persian force.
Entering the conference room and seeing d already seated inside, Rawlf fired the question right
away.
He knew that Veronica had the right to know everything; however, Rawlf would at least want to
filter the information first.
"What''s the real status?"
"Everything is truly under control , however, Sir Bien, the madam''s uncle…. We lost track of
him."
"What do you mean?" Rawlf''s tone turned gloomy.
He''s really not a caring person for those aside from Veronica and their children, however,
Veronica''s uncle Bien was the one who helped Veronica and their children when he wasn''t with them
yet, in fact, he save them and took care of them as well. He has a big amount of gratitude and debt
towards uncle Bien and even if he would try to make it up for him, a lifetime wouldn''t suffice.
"We just lost track of himst night. We couldn''t contact you to inform you since you''re traveling.
However, the other members from the force were patiently looking for him. We also coordinated with
the force of the Lady Boss here and both joined forces to find Sir Bien."
"Get ready, we''ll go to the castle."
d stood up and bowed in obedience to go out of the room to prepare his men. He just got out of
the door when she saw the Lady Boss rushing, obviously looking for Rawlf.
He called her out and seeing him, she quickly approached him. "Where''s Rawlf."
''She must have known it already.'' d thought.
Before he could answer, the man in question was already behind him.
Veronica passed him by and walked inside. d shrugged off and walked out to get the remaining
force ready.
Back in the castle, Victorino and Victor were lounging in the living area, wine sses in both hands
while the Sy couple, Wang couple and sons and the twins were being confined in a corner.
The elders'' expressions look grave, their eyesight not moving away from the twins. On the other
hand, the Persian forces in the shadows were standing by, high alert. "Where is Bien?!" Eddie Wang
spoke in anger.
On the other hand Victorino took his time sipping on the wine. After some time, he look at Eddie
Wang who was on a wheelchair from head to toe,
"You know, I still couldn''t understand what Celerina like about you. Too soft. Too weak. And you
end up being almost disabled because of your feebleness."
Victorino mocked.
The three Wang brothers, after hearing their father being ridiculed, instantly stood up to punch the
man; however, they were forced to sit back when two men pointed their guns towards Baelfire and
Baelfair.
This is why even if the three Wang brothers were skillful in hand to handbat, they could only
sit on one corner because they''re afraid they will put their nephew and niece in danger.
"That''s right. Do something, try me… and you''ll see how the bullets will pierce through those
children''s brains."
Victorinoughed, not even flinching that he''s talking about little children here.
The people were silent, very silent because of the anger in their hearts but smartly decided not to
worsen and triggered the other side.
Victorino then turned towards Celerina,
"All those years, I''ve been patiently waiting for you thinking that you''lle back after realizing
you wouldn''t find anyone else better than me. Yearster, indeed you return but because you were
exiled from that country and because of that man''s"
Victorino pointed at Eddie Wang, "weakness", he emphasize and continued,
"Your standard in men is unexpectedly low, Celerina." Victorino thenughed in contempt.
He stood up and walked towards Celerina. He pulled her by force seeing that Eddie Wang was
holding her.
This results in Eddie Wang from falling down the wheelchair. Butler Leo who was on the other side
quickly approached to help him up and so were the three Wang brothers however, Victor suddenly fired
a shot towards the twins direction and everyone looked in horror, their blood boiling.
They heaved a sigh of relief seeing that the fired gunshot was a little far from the twins. The
gunshot also stopped them from moving any further. Eddie Wang crawled towards Victorino who was
still pulling Celerina with him, his intention obvious.
"Dad!"

Edcel quickly went to help his father
However, seeing how Eddie Wang was miserably crawling after them, Victorino stopped and pulled
Celerina back to where Eddie Wang was.
"Beg me Eddie! Beg me! Beg me like the little sissy that you are!" "Go! go and kill me! But leave
my wife alone!"
Victorinoughed once more in mockery. The face of the Wang brothers furious yet helpless. The
twin''s position is far from them so no matter how swift and fast they are, they would endanger the twins
once the men from the other side saw them if they start to fight back.
Madam Vanessa Sy on the other hand witnessing the whole scene shed tears.
She''s afraid of whatever will happen to her beloved grandchildren but she''s shedding tears seeing
how devoted Eddie Wang is towards Celerina.
She couldn''t help but feel envy for the first time in many years. But after realizing that the situation
right now is dangerous, Madam Vanessa ignored her straying thoughts and watched the men who were
pointing their guns towards the twins very closely.
Among them, Madam Vanessa is the closest to the twins and if worstes to worst, she will no
doubt jump in front to shield them, even if the exchange will be her own life!
Old master Sy who turned weaker and older after his talk with Vanessast time also thought the
same however, with his slow movements, he''s of no help, even old Butler Pito wasn''t able to help.
The situation in summary is very tense.
On the other side, the Persian force who were on the ceiling and some on the underground and
some inside the spaces of the walls in the castle were on standby.
"When are we going to take action Boss?" One man asked their unit leader. "When someone gets
hurt."
"Is emotional hurt not included?"
Hearing this, the rest of the men on the underground looked at their colleague with the same
thought, ''What do you know about emotions?!''
