Yara, however, was frowning in thought. “But their target is Obadiah. Why would they do
something so pointless?”
Les turned toward the man, who was barely breathing. “Urgh… I think we should try to
break out as soon as we can.”
Yara certainly wanted to do that, but they just stopped Obadiah’s bleeding after he was
stabbed multiple times. Moreover, they were hopelessly outnumbered – it was impossible
to escape with one person so seriously injured.
“That’s no good,” Yara said. “We don’t stand a chance with Mr. Longman being that hurt.
We should keep waiting for backup.”
Les did not agree. “Why don’t you give me his pill recipe? Me and my man will then make
a break for it–the recipe is vital. We can’t let it fall into anyone’s hands.”

She gingerly took out a thick book from her bag and handed it to Les, telling him
somberly, This is the key to Grande Corp’s future. You have to bring it to Ms. Turnbull.”
Since Les was Vicky’s cousin, it should be fine handing it to him.
As he took it, he nodded repeatedly as he checked the book, while Yara continued, “I’ll
draw their attention. You can leave through the back door.”
Les smiled, the excitement in his eyes barely concealed as he put the book away. “That’s
unnecessary. None of you are leaving anyway.”
Yara frowned. “What-”
Before she could finish, Les whipped out a stun baton and struck her, flooring her with an
enormous jolt!
Yara was left twitching in shock as she gaped at Les in shock. “W–What are you doing?!”
Yara’s two bodyguards promptly lunged at Les, but his own bodyguards were prepared.
Whipping out their own blades, it was over in an instant.
Les was chuckling as he stared at Yara on the floor. “What am I doing? Wiping you all out,
of course.”
“You’re… betraying us?” Yara was left in disbelief–she had never expected one of the
Turnbulls to betray them!
“What are you saying? I simply have the wisdom to recognize circumstances.” Les snorted
and whipped out his phone. “I have the recipe. You can come in now.”
The hitmen outside the factory stormed inside instantly, with a black–clad masked man in
the
lead.
Yara recognized him, just as she realized why they were not storming the factory—they

She certainly regretted trusting a vermin like Les!

“We have the recipe, sir,” Les said, respectfully approaching the masked man and passing
him the book.
The masked man read it for a while and nodded in satisfaction before waving his hand.
Catching his cue, Les strode up to Obadiah and killed him with a single stab.
Yara was left watching as Obadiah died, blaming herself further right then.
Les then strode toward him, dagger in hand, but Yara shouted just before he reached her,
Wait! Since I’m dead anyway, I should at least know who’s the one who killed me.”
Turning toward the masked man, she asked, “Who are you?”
The masked man simply laughed. “Such cheap tricks are unnecessary, “You know me?”
Yara did a double take–he knew her!
Ms. Quill.”
