“You beat up Hunter Hill?”
Lauren sounded surprised.
Hera had indeed not shared this information with her. She had even wondered why Hunter had needed
to be hospitalized for such a long time.
“In that case, it’s highly likely the Hill family is also the mastermind behind the fire at Baroque Group’s
factory!
“I''ll pass this tip over to Chief Holt. He might be able to gain some useful information from it!”
Lauren immediately hung up the phone and phoned Jupiter.
Once Jupiter took down Lauren’s tip, he and Angelica immediately began conducting a stealthy
investigation into Innovate Collective and the Hill family.
News that Xeno and Salvatore had divided thend belonging to the
ck Tiger Hall between them spread like wildfire.
The business and political circles in Jonford were in turmoil.
Henderson grabbed his thermos and walked into Jade’s office. The minute he opened the door, he said
impatiently, “Townsend… thoughts on what’s going on with the ck Tiger Hall?”
He walked toward the water cooler and began filling up his thermos.
Jade had just learned of this news over the phone, and Henderson had not bothered knocking before
he entered the room. He was so startled he jumped out of his seat before saying exasperatedly, “Next
time, can you knock before you enter?”
Years of working together meant the two were as thick as thieves, and they sometimes could not be
bothered with formalities.
Henderson grinned. “I’m just so used to it!”
Jade sped his hands behind his back and walked to the window before saying, “The ck Tiger Hall
is a menace to society that we should have gotten rid of long ago… Nash has done all the civilians a
favor!”
Before this, there were four main underworld forces in Jonford.
The tworgest ones were the Green Bamboo Association and the ck Tiger Hall.
Now, Nash had gotten rid of not just the Green Bamboo Association but the ck Tiger Hall as well.
Nash had aplished what he had wanted but did not have the guts to do.

Jade could not be any more happier
Henderson brought his tea over to the window and waited for it to cool slightly before he took a sip.
“Xeno and Salvatore will probably be much more powerful after taking over the ck Tiger Hall.
“I’m not too worried about Salvatore’s men, since they’ve been hard at work operating their freight
company for the past few years, but I can’t stop myself from worrying about Dragon Tiger Gate!”
Jade smiled slightly. “Dragon Tiger Gate is mostly involved in legitimate businesses, and the shady
business they sometimes get up to doesn’t cross any of our lines either…
“Did you know that Dragon Tiger Gate has had the lowest crime rate among the four main forces for
the past three years?”
Hendersonughed. “I’d forgotten that the youngd from the Skye family was in charge of Dragon
Tiger Gate!”
Jade returned to his desk and said, “The Skye family’s patriarch holds a respectable position within
Capiton’s political sphere, so he’ll definitely pay attention to the stances of the politicians within the
Skye family…
“Jonford is sorge. There’s no way we can control everything that’s happening in the underworld. If
Xeno can keep his men under control, life will be much easier for you guys!”
At the Watson family’s estate, Queenie bounded out from the mansion happily.
She went to the garage, got into her customized pink Porsche, and drove to school.
Once she turned off her family’s private road, she was immediately stopped by a man wearing a cap.
Then, three cars that were usually driven by her family’s bodyguards pulled to a stop nearby them.
Queenie tilted her head and took a good look.
“Kai?”
Kai Watson hurried over.
A dozen bodyguards immediately swarmed forth as well.
Kai took off his cap and asked calmly, “Can’t even recognize me anymore?”
The bodyguards did not seem to fear Kai in the slightest, and their leader said, “Mr. Kai… Sir has
specifically instructed that you aren’t allowed to approach Ms. Queenie!”
Queenie waved them aside. “You may step aside!”
The bodyguard hesitated. “But…”
An ugly look appeared on Queenie’s face. “My grandpa asked you to protect me, not to supervise me!”
Then, she gave the rest of the bodyguards a cold look. “Are you all tired of your jobs? Would you like
me to have all of you reced?”
The bodyguards exchanged nces with each other after hearing that.
Then, the bodyguard in charge of the others sighed. The minute he waved his hand, the rest of the
bodyguards disappeared.
Queenie nodded in satisfaction and walked toward Kai, who had lost a lot of weight. She gazed at him
while saying, “Kai… how have you been?”
Though they were just cousins, Kai had always been very loving toward Queenie.
She felt like he was actually her older brother.
