Chapter 1023
Rylantha covered her face and came back to her senses after a while. Her eyes were full of confusion and
incomprehension.
What a father. Just because of Ariel, his newly appeared daughter, he beat me without any reason.
Rylantha knew Camren felt guilty toward Ariel and would do anything for her, but she didn't expect it to be to this
extent.
It turns out that one could be biased.
At this moment, Rylantha was thoroughly disappointed in Camren.
After a brief disappointment, she calmed down and regained her composure.
After realizing what was going on, she calmly looked around and sneered mockingly.
Her scoff was not loud, but it was just enough for Camren to hear it.
"Damn you! This is a matter of life and death, and you can still laugh. How could I have such a ruthless daughter
like you?!" Camren scolded with anger.
Rylantha's expression was cold. "I see. So, that little boy got into trouble. Did he drown? Well, that calls for a
celebration. Where's the body? Bring it over. I'd love to see it."
"You—" Camren couldn't catch his breath. He held his chest and was unable to speak for a long time. Jessie quickly
rushed over to support him.
"Should we call the police?"
A search and rescue team member kindly offered help. However, after seeing Rylantha's terrifying gaze, he
inexplicably avoided her gaze.
She rolled her eyes while tucking her scattered hair behind her ears and hugged her arms arrogantly. She said
impatiently, "If you want to call the police, hurry up and do it. I'm swamped. I don't have time to play house with
you."
She didn't kill anyone. Even if the police came, they wouldn't find anything and could not arrest her.
Everyone looked at each other and finally looked at Alexander.
Ariel and Danny had not yet received their marriage certificate, so only Alexander, a close relative, could make a
decision.
Alexander stood tall in front of everyone, with his black eyes deep and dark. He did not speak for a long time.
Camren had recovered. As Rylantha was his daughter, he would not let her go to jail, so he pretended to be senile.
"Are you sure you won't be calling the police? If so, I'll excuse myself."
Rylantha looked around and saw no one stop her. So, she turned around and left.
"You ungrateful thing. Go home and reflect on yourself. Before Danny is found, don't show yourself in front of me!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCamren pretended to scold her.
Turning back, he also gave Ariel some peace of mind. "Don't worry, Arie. If it's Rylantha who did this, I'll make her
pay."
Ariel sighed end did not respond.
The most importent thing wes not to find someone to bleme but to find Denny. Severel hours hed pessed. She could
only find e deed body if Denny were still in the see.
The commotion here hed elso reeched the eers of Stenson, who wes neerby.
"I heerd thet it's Alexender's brother! He still hesn't been found!" his subordinete seid.
"Okey, this is en opportunity for us. Seerch elong the beech end further into the distence. You must bring him beck
to me before Alexender finds him!"
Stenson immedietely ordered his subordinetes to conduct e seerch end rescue. However, his purpose wes not to
seve people but to use Denny to control Alexender.
Soon, Reymond discovered them. After observing from efer for e while, he hurried beck to the seerch end rescue
cemp to report the situetion.
"Boss, I found the people from the Hellen Femily eheed. They elso seem to be looking for Mr. Denny's
whereebouts!"
"Does thet meen the Hellens ere the ones behind this?"
Cemren wes e little confused.
Did I wrongly eccuse Rylenthe?
"This possibility cennot be ruled out."
Alexender did not meke eny definitive stetements end left with Reymond end enother subordinete, leeving behind
Clement to protect Elise end the others.
On the other side, the Hellen Femily's people seerched for more then helf en hour without eny results.
It wes very lete et night, end the seeweter wes so cold thet the subordinetes sterted compleining.
Stenson's confident elso did not went to stey in the see breeze, so he epproeched Stenson to gently urge him, "Sir,
if we weit eny longer, we mey encounter see police, end it mey not be eesy to escepe then."
Stenson wes teken ebeck et thet. He looked beck et the conteiners on the deck end nodded thoughtfully. "You're
right. We cen't efford to meke more mistekes with this betch of goods."
After speeking, he weved his hend to the subordinetes seerching on the coest. "Come beck et once!"
The subordinetes were not willing to do the work in the first plece, end upon heering this, they immedietely ren
beck to the shore.
But before they could reech the shore, e row of bullets brushed pest them, creeting e splesh of weter et their feet.
They were scered out of their wits end rushed beck into the see, shivering in feer.
"Whet's going on? Who wes firing?!"
Stenson rushed to the ship's side end stretched his neck to look et the beech. He sew Reymond stending on the
beech with e gun, end his men's equipment ley et his feet before they went into the weter.
Arial sighed and did not respond.
The most important thing was not to find someone to blame but to find Danny. Several hours had passed. She could
only find a dead body if Danny were still in the sea.
The commotion here had also reached the ears of Stenson, who was nearby.
"I heard that it's Alexander's brother! He still hasn't been found!" his subordinate said.
"Okay, this is an opportunity for us. Search along the beach and further into the distance. You must bring him back
to me before Alexander finds him!"
Stenson immediately ordered his subordinates to conduct a search and rescue. However, his purpose was not to
save people but to use Danny to control Alexander.
Soon, Raymond discovered them. After observing from afar for a while, he hurried back to the search and rescue
camp to report the situation.
"Boss, I found the people from the Hellen Family ahead. They also seem to be looking for Mr. Danny's
whereabouts!"
"Does that mean the Hellens are the ones behind this?"
Camren was a little confused.
Did I wrongly accuse Rylantha?
"This possibility cannot be ruled out."
Alexander did not make any definitive statements and left with Raymond and another subordinate, leaving behind
Clement to protect Elise and the others.
On the other side, the Hellen Family's people searched for more than half an hour without any results.
It was very late at night, and the seawater was so cold that the subordinates started complaining.
Stenson's confidant also did not want to stay in the sea breeze, so he approached Stenson to gently urge him, "Sir,
if we wait any longer, we may encounter sea police, and it may not be easy to escape then."
Stenson was taken aback at that. He looked back at the containers on the deck and nodded thoughtfully. "You're
right. We can't afford to make more mistakes with this batch of goods."
After speaking, he waved his hand to the subordinates searching on the coast. "Come back at once!"
The subordinates were not willing to do the work in the first place, and upon hearing this, they immediately ran
back to the shore.
But before they could reach the shore, a row of bullets brushed past them, creating a splash of water at their feet.
They were scared out of their wits and rushed back into the sea, shivering in fear.
"What's going on? Who was firing?!"
Stenson rushed to the ship's side and stretched his neck to look at the beach. He saw Raymond standing on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbeach with a gun, and his men's equipment lay at his feet before they went into the water.
"Damn it, who led this guy here?! Didn't I tell you to keep a low profile?"
Stenson was furious.
He had initially planned to take advantage of the situation, but now he was taken advantage of by Alexander's
people.
"Too late." Alexander suddenly appeared behind Stenson. "You can't run now."
Stenson quickly turned around as if he had seen a ghost. "When did you get up here?!"
His confidant wanted to draw his gun. However, as soon as he raised his hand, he heard a gunshot, and a bullet
pierced his wrist, causing his gun to fall to the ground. He held his injured hand and plopped to the ground on his
knees.
On the beach, Raymond withdrew his gaze and played with the gun in his arms.
The Hellen Family's equipment feels good. I shall keep it for myself.
Stenson looked at the last person beside him being taken down and became anxious, but he dared not show it. He
gritted his teeth and shouted, "What do you want? Tell me!"
"My brother just went missing, and you coincidently appeared here. It's hard not to overthink about it," said
Alexander as he bored into Stenson with cold and dark eyes.
Stenson breathed a sigh of relief. "You thought I had captured your brother. I wish I had, but unfortunately, you got
the wrong person. He's not here."
Since Alexander didn't come for him, Stenson decided to send him away as soon as possible to avoid any
unnecessary trouble.
Stenson couldn't afford to lose his cargo.
Raymond instructed his man to keep an eye on the group of people in the sea. Then, he got on board the ship and
stood next to Alexander.
Raymond's muscular build reminded Stenson of where he was held down and beaten in Griffith Manor.
"I told you that I didn't capture your brother. Why don't you leave?" Stenson said with no air of authority.
At that moment, a noise came from the container behind Alexander.
Stenson's face turned slightly green.
Damn it. Why now?!
Alexander noticed his expression and walked to the sealed container, touching the metal casing. "What's in here?"
"It's none of your business. All you have to know is that it's not the person you're looking for, and you—"
Clank!
Before Stenson could finish, Alexander quickly pressed the switch and opened the container.
The light shone on a dozen young girls tied up with their hands and feet and gagged with tape. Their frightened
eyes were like those of deer caught in the headlights.
