    Ordinarily, the lights in the vi should be turned on at this hour. The two wondered just why the lights


    were off instead and thought about the possibility that there wasn''t anyone in the vi at the moment.


    The two made eye contact with one another and noticed that they were both worried about the situation


    as they wondered just what had happened there. Silently, they sneaked into the quiet room and went


    up to the second floor.


    Then, they heard Ellen begging from the door. "Please, let me go…"


    Something did happen, Jewel thought as she felt her heart sink in an instant. She made eye contact


    with Alex before quieting her footsteps. As an assassin, she had a certain degree of acuity. With her


    eyes locked on the room, she swiftly made her way to the door and ced her ear against the door to


    listen to the conversation.


    Inside, a man''s voice said viciously, "Cut the crap and write. Write that you are now at peace with your


    revenge achieved, so there''s nothing tying you to life. Say that with your brother''s reconciliation and


    Eugene having his own family, you have nothing to worry about anymore, so you''ll be taking your leave


    first."


    Another man added, "Casper, can someone even fall to their death from the second floor?"


    The man called Casper said, "You really think that she''ll fall to her death? We only need to make it


    seem like it. After all, she was supposed to be dead for a long time now. She''s only been living on


    borrowed time all these years!"

    Outside the door, Jewel couldn''t hold herself back any longer. With ferocity in her eyes, she kicked the


    door wide open which resulted in a loud bang. With the door flung open, the men inside were


    frightened as they turned their heads to the door.


    "What? Who is it?"


    With a darkened expression, Jewel entered and found that there were around eightrge men dressed


    in the clothes of the bodyguards of Promise Ind. Each of them was holding some sort of weapon—


    some were staves, while some were knives. Is this treason or are they pretending to be someone from


    Promise Ind?


    Held at knifepoint, Ellen was at the table with a pen with several men standing menacingly behind her.


    Upon noticing it was Jewel, she yelled, "Jewel, don''te here. Leave, quickly leave."


    However, there wasn''t a chance in a million that Jewel would leave her behind. Feeling sorry for her,


    she shouted at Ellen, "Godmother, don''t worry." Then, she turned her attention toward the group of


    men, her eyes filled with killing intent. "Release her."


    The men looked at each other before they allughed out loud.


    "A lone woman who can''t even speak well wants to rescue someone? Since you came to die, then


    don''t me us for what happens now. You all, go and tie her up."


    Just as Jewel wanted to rush over to them and take the first move, Casper held his knife closer to


    Ellen''s neck and said, "It''s best if you don''t move around so carelessly. Otherwise, I will make sure this


    woman dies before your very eyes."


    Jewel froze on the spot as she was unable to take action.


    When several men were about to go over to her to tie her up, Alex entered the room as well after he


    sent a message to Eugene. Not only were they clever enough to go over Promise Ind''s defense, but


    they even found their way to the vi for their assassination target. It was clear that they were no


    ordinary men. Not only that, but Ellen was in their hands right now, so he knew that just the two of them


    were not a match for these people. Thus, he quickly asked Eugene to send them reinforcement.


    "Hold it right there! Just who are you people? Do you know who this person is?" he questioned in an


    authoritative tone, the look in his eyes piercing.
