    Chapter 814 Not To Be Messed With


    Storm and Zephyr went to the Hanna Hotel to look for Alfonso, but they didn’t find him there.


    After inquiring with the front desk, they learned that Alfonso had checked out and was now missing.


    Storm gritted his teeth in frustration and said in annoyance, “Once again, we’re one step behind!”

    Instead of leaving right away, he asked the front receptionist to retrieve the security footage for him.


    At first, the receptionist tly refused his request.


    “Surveince footage involves guests‘ privacy,” she reasoned. “The answer is no, unless there’s a very


    good reason.”


    Storm held a dagger next to her throat.


    He threatened, “This is an emergency. I have a poor reputation for being patient. If you don’t have the


    authority to do this, call your manager. If that doesn’t work, contact the hotel owner. No matter what, I


    need to get that surveince footage today.”


    The receptionist was terrified. She immediately called the general manager.


    After taking stock of the situation and observing Storm and Zephyr’s demeanor, the general manager


    understood that they were not to be trifled with.


    He dared not refuse and took them to the surveince room.


    It came as aplete shock that the hotel’s security system had beenpromised. In the footage,


    there was no indication of Alfonso’s whereabouts or actions.


    The general manager suspected something was wrong and worried he’d get into serious trouble.


    Immediately, he stated, “I don’t know how this happened. Nobody but authorized personnel is


    allowed in the surveince room.”


    The staff stationed in the surveince room trembled in fear.


    “I don’t know what’s going on,” he borated. “I have not left the room, nor have I allowed anyone


    no ide what’s going on.”


    Storm cast a sidelong nce at them.


    They didn’t appear to be lying, so he decided not to pursue the matter further.


    “Make a copy of all this footage for me,” he demanded.


    “Can you restore it?” Zephyr inquired.


    “I don’t know yet,” Storm replied, shaking his head, “but I’ll try when I get back.”


    If it doesn’t work, the cloud should arrive soon. He excels at tracking, and having him conduct the


    investigation will save time.


    Zephyr nodded slightly.


    This was all they could do for the time being.


    Meanwhile, in a luxurious vi in the north. This area was Asher’s territory.


    More than a dozen men stood guard outside the door.


    Alfonso was present. He had been eagerly waiting for news ever since Asher sent those men to carry


    out the kidnapping.


    He didn’t receive any report. Asher’s expression gradually darkened. There was nothing else he could


    do but send someone to investigate.


    His assistant returned an hourter, nervously reporting the situation.


    “Asher, our men located the car that that team was driving, but no one was inside; we found some


    bloodstains in a nearby alley.


    “I’m afraid that team met the same fate as Maddox and Mason,” he said, swallowing and uttering his


    spection. “They got themselves into a dangerous situation, and their lives and deaths are


    unounted for.”


    Asher sneered coldly as he listened. He pressed the cigar firmly into the ashtray.


    “Wahaha! Interesting. Two of my teams had vanished one after the other. It appears that Maddox and


    Mason’s disappearance is Neera’s doing too. This is amazing.”


    As he turned his attention to Alfonso, his gaze became cold. A dangerous look loomed on his face.


    “Didn’t you say your daughter is just a regr businesswoman? What kind of ordinary woman. could


    handle so many of my men?


    Alfonso was frightened out of his wits. Not one of these events was something he expected.


    He shook his head vehemently and said, “I…I didn’t lie. Honestly, I don’t know. I don’t know about


    the people around Neera, but she runs ANXIN Group.”


    “YOU DON’T KNOW?”


    Asher’s anger red up, and he kicked the coffee table.


    “You asked me to send my men out without first determining the situation. You’ve tipped off the


    enemy! You scumbag! Good–for–nothing!”


    Alfonso backed away, trembling with fear. He was ovee with fear and resentment.


    “I’m sorry, Asher,” he said repeatedly. “Please ept my sincere apologies; this is entirely my


    fault.”


    Despite his rage, Asher reasoned that he had to bear it because he had not acquired ANXIN Group’s


    assets.


    Solemnly, he told his assistant, “We need to get some professionals to intervene since our people can’t


    deal with her. Get in touch with the Essley’s ck market and tell them to send us more men.”


    Thetter agreed and quickly walked away to set it up.
