    "I think the best option is for her to lose her memory. If we seed, we can get rid of Matthew and any


    future problems. As for their children, they''ll be brought back to the hidden n. They are my


    grandchildren, so I won''t mistreat them."


    On the other hand, Rory got off the phone and appeared from behind the crowd. He came to the front


    and stared at Veronica. "Miss Murphy, I''d advise you to follow us home. I don''t want to... use forceful


    measures.”


    “Then, we''ll just continue standing here. I don''t think you can stand here all day without eating or


    drinking." Her words sounded like she was joking, but the others did not expect she would turn around


    to brace her hand on the engine''s cover before hopping on and sitting there, leisurely swinging her legs


    and looking unhurried.


    Time passed slowly, and though Veronica seemed unhurried, she asionally checked the time on her


    wristwatch, exposing her anxiety.


    The two groups of people stood there for two hours, and Rory had a feeling that she was deliberately


    stalling for time but could not figure out why.


    On the other hand, Lazlo approached her and whispered, ‘It''s been two hours. Skyler and the others


    should have seeded by now.”


    In actuality, the duo took the route on the mountain''s south side because they wanted to buy some time


    for Skyler as he led the men from One Piece


    Restaurant through another route to the secret research center. Although that path was further, more


    rugged, and steeper, it was smoother without Crayson''s men blocking their journey.


    Looking up at the sun in the sky, she found the bright sunlight exceptionally blinding and narrowed her


    eyes. She tidied her hair behind her ear and whispered, “Let''s hope everything goes smoothly for


    them.”


    Since Skyler arrived at the hidden n, Matthew told him about his personnel and their distribution.


    That was why they split up after receiving the map of the secret research center in the west zone. He


    went to mobilize the highly skilled masters Matthew had arranged to stay in the hidden n and


    brought all of them to the secret research center.


    With a sufficient troop, Veronica thought there would not be a problem, but her right eye kept twitching


    for some reason, eliciting her insecurity.


    Ring— Ring— Ring—


    Lazlo''s phone suddenly rang, and he immediately answered after ncing at the caller. “Boss,


    something happened. We were ambushed and suffered heavy casualties."


    While the other end was reporting their situation, Lazlo could also hear the sounds of a battle in the


    background.


    “What happened?" he asked.


    "We don''t know. This was an impromptu n, but the other side seemed to know everything and


    staged a trap for us to fall into”


    "Where''s Skyler?"


    "Skyler and I were separated. My fellow brothers are all dead, and I''m the only one left."


    “You—" Lazlo hesitated for a moment and looked at Veronica before whispering, "Protect yourself and


    immediately retreat."


    Just by listening to Lazlo''s phone call, she could tell something was amiss.


    “What happened?"


    Approaching her, he whispered, "Although Skyler and the others sessfully entered the west zone


    secret research center, Tanya had set up an ambush. They fell into it and suffered heavy losses."


    "How is that possible?” She felt her heart sink, and herst strand of patience finally vanished. She


    jumped off the engine cover but stumbled feebly, unsure whether she had sprained her ankle or her


    body was frail.


    Seeing that, Lazlo hurriedly helped her up. “Are you alright?”
