Chapter 990
“Well, can Gregory do the same? He's inherently selfish. He never loved my mother. The only person he loves is
himself. | don’t even think | deserve Bella's forgiveness. Forget about Gregory deserving my mother’s.”
Ryan sighed softly, feeling sorry for his best friend.
Just then, the phone rang, breaking the heavy atmosphere.
“How's it going?” Ryan asked hastily after putting the call on speaker.
“Mr. Hoffman, things aren’t looking good!”
The operative assigned to tail Winston sounded anxious in his tone. Just as Mr. Salvador expected, Winston does
indeed have local support in Terranova ! We found out that the group he’s working with there is notorious for
their cractivities, with ties with both the government and business community. They're involved in drug
trafficking, arms smuggling, and various other crimes. Over the years, they've becdeeply entrenched Even
the government and royal family of Terranova are powerless against them!”
As Justin and Ryan locked eyes, their expressions grew solemn.
While they had expected it to be challenging, they had not anticipated the situation to becso dire.
“Where is that bastard now? You didn’t lose track of him, did you?!” Ryan asked through clenched teeth, his
frustration evident.
“Our operatives tracked him to the vicinity of the southern island of

Terranova. They witnessed Winston boarding a yacht. Our teams
attempted to surround him, eventually leading to a fierce firefight.
However, reinforcements for Winston quickly arrived from the
southern island. They were well-trained, with accurate marksmanship
and heavy weaponry. Our men suffered severe casualties, and two of
our comrades were critically injured and succumbed to their injuries.”
Ryan's eyes widened in shock, his fists clenched tightly, veins bulging
on his forehead with anger.
These were the soldiers he had personally trained and led for years.
Though they were under his command, he was not devoid of
compassion.
How could he remain indifferent after hearing about his men’s
sacrifices?
“Are you certain he landed on the southern island?” Justin’s stern
expression was as cold as ice.
“Absolutely! After returning, we persisted and approached the
southern island again under the cover of darkness. Through
binoculars, we saw Winston’s yacht moored along the shore of the
southern island. Besides, there were no other habitable islands
nearby. So, he must be there!” The operative’s tone was resolute.
“Very well. You've all worked hard.”
Justin's attitude was surprisingly gentle, tinged with remorse. “Once we return, | will personally thank you guys
on behalf of Ryan. As for everything else, leave it to me.”
“L-Leave it to you?! But those people are ruthless killers. Killing is like second nature to them! We've faced them
before and struggled to

“Those people aren't your average street thugs. Many of them are former mercenaries and comrades of Winston.
You can’t take them
lightly.”
“Justin, don’t force yourself. Your life is more precious than Winston!”
Ryan's heart raced with anxiety as he firmly grasped Justin's arm. “Do

you realize how many people would be devastated if anything
happened to you? What am | supposed to tell Bella and Carrie?!”
“Dude, I've seen my fair share of the world. If | could survive the
battlefields of Kridor, I'd surely make it out of this alive.”
Justin smiled faintly, patting Ryan's shoulder reassuringly. “Don’t
worry. I'll be fine. Bella is waiting forto chome. And | believe
my mother, in the heavens above, will watch overand hope for the
best for me.”

For Shannon, the most excruciating part was not the grounding.
It was her inability to see Dr. Fairchild and receive her injections. Tha
was the real torment for her!
It had been two days already, and she had attempted various methods to secretly flee Tideview Manor, but to no
avail!
This time, Gregory was resolute about keeping her confined like a
prisoner.
“Mom? Mom?”
