Chapter 434
Arnaldo shook his head and sighed. "Reina, Donald is dead. It is time for you to move on."
Reina''s face paled as she shot up from her seat. "No. He is definitely not dead!"
Arnaldo let out another sigh. "Reina, I might need to head back to Terrandya."

Noticing that his daughter did not give him any response, Arnaldo continued, "Ss and Francesco
have worked together to divide the resources in Pollerton. The whole remation area, save for the
area that is under the ten great families and Lord Campbell Mountain Vi''s control, is being carved
up by Ss. His influence has grown by at least three times by now. I suppose you think Charles
and Zayne might be strong enough to hold him, but they''re all cowering in a corner in fear of him.
They dare not even show their faces. If Ynda had not gone to extreme lengths to save Holton,
thetter would have died in Pollerton as well. Ynda has suffered a huge hit. If Holton does not
leave soon, he will die here. The same goes for me. Ss is a formidable presence. He will strike in
a few more days, and nobody will be able to stop him."
Arnaldo sounded dejected.
The number of resources derived from the remation area was unbelievable.
It was a huge piece of pie. Ss was so blinded by his greed that he wanted to take it all for himself.
Nheless, Reina did not understand the dynamics of the situation.
"Follow me back to Terrandya. Scarlet Swan Vi will most likely be taken, too," Arnaldo said.
Reina widened her eyes and eximed, "Does Ss wish to take my Scarlet Swan Vi, too?"
"That man has taken more than ny percent of Mr. Lynch''s assets, over half of Charles''
properties, Zayne''s Primordial Tower, and even the food and beverage chain of Tyson. Do you think
he will let your Scarlet Swan Vi go?"
Arnaldo sounded resigned.
He was not afraid of Ss at first. However, it was different when thetter teamed up with
Francesco, who was unrivaled. Arnaldo remembered his own bodyguard, Hansel, who was killed by
Francesco using just one strand of ordinary weed. It was clear as day that Francesco was a
formidable man.
Reina felt a sense of despair wash over her.
Things would not have gotten out of hand if Donald was still alive.
After digging around for nearly a year and confirmation from multiple sources, she finally epted
the fact that Donald had passed away a year ago.
"Ss wants to seize control of the whole Terrandya right now. However, the key to gaining authority
over Terrandya is to get hold of Pollerton first. Hence, he will not let Scarlet Swan Vi go. You
might as well follow me back to Terrandya as soon as possible," Arnaldo said.
Tears brimmed in Reina''s eyes as she said, "No. I''m not leaving. My memories here are far too
precious to be left behind."
She took a look around Scarlet Swan Vi. If it hadn''t been for Donald, Scarlet Swan Vi would
have ceased to exist long ago.
The number of scarlet swans in Scarlet Swan Vi had reached over twenty thousand. It was a
large amount of wealth, and it could be liquidated very easily.
Stocks and properties may be valuable, but they needed a longer time to liquidate into cash.
However, that was not the case with Scarlet Swan Vi. It was very popr, and the transfer of the
vi''s ownership could happen in the blink of an eye. Ss, who was desperately trying to expand
his influence, would not give up on seizing this cash cow.
Just when Arnaldo was about to say something, his gaze darted behind Reina''s behind, and his
brows furrowed deeply.
A tall man was standing some thirty meters away from Reina.
He was wearing a suit, his body slender. However, he had long hair that reached his shoulders. Half
his face was concealed behind those long hair. One could only glimpse his eyes which shone with a
glint.
Arnaldo was stumped. Then, his expression turned grim as he ordered in a low voice, "Come with
me!"
His heart was pounding as he felt his eyelids twitching.
Arnaldo had a robustwork of information. So, he recognized the man instantly.
The man was known as Crabface.
Donald had another name now, which was Crabface.
Arnaldo had heard about Crabface and seen the video of the mysterious man murdering Javon and
destroying Leviathan.
Reina turned around and saw Donald as well. A perplexed look crossed her face.
"Who is he?" Reina asked.
Arnaldo did not reply to her and dragged her to leave the gazebo.
