Chapter 1452


    At this point, she pursed her lips and asked, "Okay, what do you want from me?"


    I opened my mouth to speak after a moment of silence, "Don''t get the Attwood family involved in


    anything to do with the Emperor Club from now on. They sell human organs, smuggle drugs, and


    run shady businesses. They have taken children away from their families as well as countless lives.


    Any number of these crimes is enough for Sebastian to be imprisoned for years. Master Attwood


    had been an honest man his whole life. Don''t be fooled by Sebastian. Don''t ruin your own family''s


    reputation because of a man, Naomi!"


    She looked at me with both her fists clenched tightly, tears welling in her eyes. "Arianna, there''s no


    turning back for me anymore. I won''t get my family involved in this. But I''ll spare no effort in


    protecting him."


    Having witnessed her obsession for him, I knew I couldn''t change her mind. I simply frowned and


    told her calmly, "Alright, as long as you think he''s worth it."


    This was it. From here on out, we would have nothing to do with each other anymore.


    There was no point talking about it any further.


    I left the cafe at once. As I was getting into the car, Evan promptly said, "There are a few freight


    cars parked at the Emperor Club, it''s said that they are there to transport some sundries away from


    the hotel. They are now loading the items."


    I was a little surprised to hear that. After a moment of hesitation, I told him, "Let''s go there now!"


    Evan started the engine after nodding his head.


    At the Emperor Club.


    There were four to five freight vehicles parked at the entrance of the Emperor Club, with a few men


    loading the vehicles. Evan and I stopped our car outside to observe them.


    "Why are they moving this stuff all of a sudden? Where are they moving them to?"


    After watching them for a while, we noticed that the workers were moving some furniture out of the


    hotel. There were also some cardboard boxes and quilts being loaded into the vehicles.


    Looking at the quilts that were being carried into the truck, I had an idea. I immediately asked Evan,


    "Can you think of a way to have the truck loaded with the quilts spontaneously catch on fire?"


    He was stunned for a second. But after giving it some thought, he realized what I was going to do.


    He nodded and said, "Yes!"


    Evan then made a few simple calls.


    It didn''t take long to hearmotioning from one of the freight trucks. Both of us peered out of


    the car window and saw that the truck had burst into mes. "Quick, can you think of a way to


    smuggle in and check if there is anything wrapped in the quilts?"


    Evan nodded and repeated my orders into his earpiece before he replied me, "There are weapons


    hidden in the quilts!"


    "Call the police immediately, and also the firefighters! Get them to surround this area before anyone


    escapes!" As soon as the police got involved, Sebastian would have to be called back from


    Oand, and he wouldn''t have the time to deal with Hendrix anymore.


    Not long after that, we heard the sound of police sirens getting closer. The police and the fire


    brigade soon arrived at the scene. I breathed a sigh of relief as soon as I saw people entering the


    building to seize them.


    I looked at Evan and said, "Let''s go and meet John now!"


    Instead of starting the car, Evan seemed to be staring at someone standing in front of the car. I


    followed his gaze and was stunned by what, or rather, who I saw. It was a familiar face. "Kaleb?"

    "Wasn''t he murdered in Oand?"


    Evan frowned, just as perplexed as I was.


    I watched as Kaleb rushed into the Emperor Club. Seeing this, I was about to get out of the car and


    follow him, however, I was stopped by Evan. "Mrs. Roberts, please wait in the car. I''ll go down and


    have a look. Please stay in the car no matter what happens!"


    I recalled Hendrix''s words and frowned, but after a moment, I nodded in agreement and stayed in


    the car.


    However, it wasn''t long after Evan went in when I heard the sound of gunshotsing from inside.


    My body jolted in shock. All of a sudden, I was feeling extremely worried. How could that be? How


    did they have weapons? Why were they acting so rampantly in broad daylight?


    I then swiftly dialed Evan''s number, but my call didn''t get through. I wanted to get out of the car, but


    before I could do so, I hesitated. If I went into the building right now, I would be putting myself in


    grave danger.
