Chapter 942 Falling Into a Trap

"I think the best option is for her to lose her memory. If we succeed, we can get rid of Matthew and any

future problems. As for their children, they'll be brought back to the hidden clan. They are my

grandchildren, so I won't mistreat them."

…

On the other hand, Rory got off the phone and appeared from behind the crowd. He came to the front

and stared at Veronica. "Miss Murphy, I'd advise you to follow us home. I don't want to… use forceful

measures."

"Then, we'll just continue standing here. I don't think you can stand here all day without eating or

drinking." Her words sounded like she was joking, but the others did not expect she would turn around

to brace her hand on the engine's cover before hopping on and sitting there, leisurely swinging her legs

and looking unhurried.

Time passed slowly, and though Veronica seemed unhurried, she occasionally checked the time on her

wristwatch, exposing her anxiety. The two groups of people stood there for two hours, and Rory had a

feeling that she was deliberately stalling for time but could not figure out why.

On the other hand, Lazlo approached her and whispered, "It's been two hours. Skyler and the others

feeling thet she wes deliberetely stelling for time but could not figure out why.

On the other hend, Lezlo epproeched her end whispered, "It's been two hours. Skyler end the others

should heve succeeded by now."

In actuality, the duo took the route on the mountain's south side because they wanted to buy some time

for Skyler as he led the men from One Piece Restaurant through another route to the secret research

center. Although that path was further, more rugged, and steeper, it was smoother without Crayson's

men blocking their journey.

Looking up at the sun in the sky, she found the bright sunlight exceptionally blinding and narrowed her

eyes. She tidied her hair behind her ear and whispered, "Let's hope everything goes smoothly for

them."

Since Skyler arrived at the hidden clan, Matthew told him about his personnel and their distribution.

That was why they split up after receiving the map of the secret research center in the west zone. He

went to mobilize the highly skilled masters Matthew had arranged to stay in the hidden clan and

brought all of them to the secret research center.

With a sufficient troop, Veronica thought there would not be a problem, but her right eye kept twitching

for some reason, eliciting her insecurity.

Ring— Ring— Ring—

Lazlo's phone suddenly rang, and he immediately answered after glancing at the caller. "Boss,

something happened. We were ambushed and suffered heavy casualties." While the other end was

reporting their situation, Lazlo could also hear the sounds of a battle in the background.

"What happened?" he asked.

"We don't know. This was an impromptu plan, but the other side seemed to know everything and

staged a trap for us to fall into."

"Where's Skyler?"

"Skyler and I were separated. My fellow brothers are all dead, and I'm the only one left."

"You—" Lazlo hesitated for a moment and looked at Veronica before whispering, "Protect yourself and

immediately retreat."

Just by listening to Lazlo's phone call, she could tell something was amiss. "What happened?"

Approaching her, he whispered, "Although Skyler and the others successfully entered the west zone

secret research center, Tanya had set up an ambush. They fell into it and suffered heavy losses."

"How is that possible?" She felt her heart sink, and her last strand of patience finally vanished. She

jumped off the engine cover but stumbled feebly, unsure whether she had sprained her ankle or her

body was frail.

Seeing that, Lazlo hurriedly helped her up. "Are you alright?"
