Chapter 382


    What the heck is wrong with me? Why am I getting flustered when he’s my freaking cousin? You need to


    calm down, Sasha!


    In an attempt to calm herself, she looked elsewhere to avoid her cousin’s gaze.


    “Sir?”


    Meanwhile, Solomon’s assistant, who stopped the car in front of the pile of rubble, noticed that he had


    his eyes fixated on something.


    His assistant couldn’t help but wonder if Solomon’s n had failed once again.


    The moment his assistant approached Solomon, he asked, “Have you figured out the identity of the


    mysterious men?”


    “My apologies, but we couldn’t find out their whereabouts since they have been conducting their


    operations in secret.”


    Solomon’s assistant started perspiring in fear as he wasn’t able toplete the assigned task.


    Truth be told, he was surprised that there was not a single piece of information on the mysterious bunch


    after he spent an entire day investigating them.


    In spite of being adequately influential, their effort was to no avail as there was nothing they could learn


    about the mysterious men.


    All of a sudden, Solomon muttered, “He has made it out alive once again.”


    His assistant gaped at Solomon’s statement and said in disbelief, “What?”


    He escaped again?


    How can that be? We only informed the militants after they had entered the building! It’s impossible for


    him to make it out alive without help!


    When his assistant was lost in thought, Solomon added, “On top of that, he came back.”


    His confused assistant asked, “What do you mean?”


    Ignoring his assistant’s question, Solomon immersed himself in his thoughts.


    I have been observing Lance throughout the past few days. It’s obvious that he has never once thought


    of Sasha as his cousin.


    It’s not surprising for Lance to get full of himself in front of me. However, he couldn’t care less to show


    Sasha some respect even when I wasn’t around.


    In fact, he seemed irked by Sasha’s presence. Why would someone hold such a strong grudge against


    his cousin?


    That was why I came up with this n in order to find out the truth.


    Immediately after I took her away and left him behind, despair was written all over the young man’s face!


    When we fled without him, I saw him ring in our direction with his hatred-filled eyes! It was as though


    thest shimmer of hope in him was gone.


    I thought he would be out of the picture after that. However, he came back for her even when she only


    returned half an hourter.


    There’s no way they’re just cousins! I’m sure there’s something going on behind the scenes!


    As Solomon went dead silent, his assistant continued asking, “W-Who’s the young man? Is he really just


    a fresh graduate?”


    Solomon answered with a vicious smirk, “I have never once believed that!”


    “What do you mean?”


    “I need to verify his identity! If he’s indeed the person I have in mind, it’s time to—” Out of the blue, a


    strong murderous intent could be seen in his glistening pair of eyes.


    Solomon’s assistant understood his words immediately.


    If he’s really the one we have been searching for, we no longer have to waste our time and effort to


    locate him!


    On the other hand, the duo at the hospital found out that Sasha sustained a severe injury after a piece of


    fractured cement pierced through her foot.


    Previously, she couldn’t feel the pain at all because the only thing she had in mind was locating her


    cousin.


    “You need to refrain from engaging in vigorous activities for the time being. Keep your wound dry at all


    times and change the wound dressing frequently.”


    After the doctor had Sasha’s injury treated and handed the prescribed medicine to her, he dismissed


    them.

    However, Lance was against the idea and insisted on having Sasha hospitalized for the night. “What the


    heck is wrong with the doctor? How can he turn us away when you’re heavily injured?”


    Sasha tried to talk some sense into Lance, “It’s fine! I mean, just take a look at the patients here! You


    don’t seriously think the hospital can amodate me, do you? Since I’m also a doctor, I can just take


    care of myself!”


    After she repetitively reassured him, he finally relented.


    As soon as they returned to the hotel, Sasha, who couldn’t wait to get out of the warring country,


    purchased tickets for the next avable flight back to their home country.


    This time, Lance didn’t stop her from doing so. Instead, he made his way back to his room.


    Someone ising after you.


    The moment he returned to his room, he received a text from a certain someone.


    Is that so?


    A disdainful smirk crept up on his face. Instead of getting worked up, he calmly tossed his phone aside


    and went into the bathroom.


    When he finally came out ten minutester, the person on the other end seemed to have sorted out


    everything on his behalf.


    Nheless, when he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror, he frowned and retrieved his phone,


    drafting another text.


    Lance: Where’s the Crimson Pimpernel?


    His subordinate: Huh? What do you need from him?


    Lance: I need another mask since the one I have has been ruined.


    His subordinate was on pins and needles as it was no easy task to acquire the aid of the Crimson


    Pimpernel. In fact, it took them a few days to persuade the Crimson Pimpernel to make them two masks.


    How are we supposed to locate the Crimson Pimpernel? Isn’t he aware that it’s going to cost us a fortune


    just to acquire a mask that suits him seamlessly!
