Chapter 897 The Underground Market Boss

Sharon stared at the stubble-bearded man and asked, “Tell me, who ordered

you to mine for gold here? How much do you know?”

The stubble-bearded man hadn’t expected Sharon to be so straightforward,

immediately posing such sharp questions.

But he also understood that his life might be jeopardized if he didn’t cooperate

with Sharon.

After hesitating for a moment, the stubble-bearded man uttered a name.

The name was unfamiliar to almost everyone present, leaving them puzzled

and exchanging bewildered glances.

Enter title…

“Who is that person? And why would she target us?” Mandy looked at Joe

and Charlotte with suspicion.

She noticed that Charlotte’s expression seemed somewhat off.

“Do you know her?”

Mandy grew even more curious. She had been with Charlotte for quite some

time, and she couldn’t recall ever hearing about any connection between

Charlotte and this person.

“The underground market boss.”

Not only Charlotte but even Joe furrowed his brows.

He hadn’t expected the mysterious figure behind the scenes to target

Charlotte.

Could it be because of their previous encounters? Was she seeking revenge?

“Whether it’s true or not, we can’t solely rely on his words,” Charlotte

suddenly remarked.

Joe nodded in agreement, not missing the subtle change in the stubblebearded man’s expression.

Though he concealed it well, everything was laid bare in Joe’s watchful eyes.

“Keep this man here; I’m going to take him to question the black market boss

in person.” Joe quickly made a decision.

Sharon nodded and quickly had the laborers escort the others out.

Jack had already contacted international authorities, and soon, personnel

arrived to take away all the laborers and supervisors.

Furthermore, Jack brought in a professional mining team to expedite the

extraction of gold from the mine.

After causing such a commotion, news of the gold mine on the island would

surely spread. They needed to extract the gold before anyone with malicious

intent took advantage of the situation.

However, these were concerns for later.

The most crucial task now was to take the stubble-bearded man to meet the

underground market boss.

Joe didn’t do this on impulse.

Since the recent crackdown by law enforcement on the underground market,

its influence had significantly diminished. Rumors suggested that several

rivals had encroached upon its territory.

Therefore, the current state of the underground market was like a taut string.

Once Joe decided to support her competitors, the underground market would

be on the brink of destruction.

Joe didn’t believe that, under these circumstances, the underground market

boss would dare to confront him. His visit was more about applying pressure

than facing off.

No matter how much profit the underground market’s boss had swallowed

before, now she had to spit it all out one by one.

Leaving Jack and Mandy on the island to handle follow-up matters, Joe,

Charlotte, and Sharon immediately headed for the underground market.

As Joe had suspected earlier, the current state of the underground market

had deteriorated significantly, with far fewer people coming and going.

Whether it was their imagination or not, they felt that even the once

magnificent auction hall now seemed dimmer.

Charlotte noticed that the previously tight security had almost doubled in

personnel.

She signaled to Joe, and he nodded in agreement.

Her assistant personally came to greet them, and upon seeing the stubblebearded man behind them, a look of

surprise crossed their face.

“Why is he with you?”

Seeing the assistant’s surprised expression, Charlotte raised an eyebrow. “He

claimed to be working for the boss, so we brought him along. Is there a

problem?”

The assistant’s gaze shifted back and forth between them and their

companion, seeming hesitant to speak.
