Chapter 598: Divine Assist from Little Lucky
Terrence deliberately left Reginald in suspense to catch his attention. Liam Michaelson said, “No, the other woman in the surveillance footage didn’t show her face. We checked, and Selene should be one of the higher-ranking assassins in the Celestial Alliance. However, she failed and her disguise was inadequate, which puzzled us.”
Terrence asked, “Is it possible that Selene wanted to be caught by the police on purpose?”
“I had the same suspicion,” Liam Michaelson replied. “Currently, among the assassins in the Celestial Alliance, only Selene’s information is relatively complete. Mr. Sterling, you mentioned you had news about Selene. Do you know where she is?”
“I don’t know her current location, but I know someone who does,” Terrence said. “You should look for Harvey.”
“Alright, Mr. Sterling, your information is very useful. We will capture her as soon as possible and dismantle the harmful Celestial Alliance organization,” Liam Michaelson said righteously. “Otherwise, many people die at the hands of Celestial Alliance every year, and many become their killing tools.”
“Thank you for your hard work,” Terrence said. “I look forward to hearing good news from Officer Michaelson. By the way, make sure to guard her well this time. Ethan Channing was silenced before; there’s a chance Selene might be targeted too.”
“Rest assured, this time even if Celestial Alliance is powerful, they won’t silence anyone under my watch. I won’t disturb you any longer, Mr. Sterling.” Liam Michaelson stood up and left.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Reginald couldn’t sit still; with Selene exposed, she had to be silenced.
As soon as Liam Michaelson left, Reginald said, “Terry, I won’t disturb your rest any longer; I’ll head back now.”
“Uncle Reginald, it’s your first time here. How can you leave without having a meal?” Terrence said. “If Grandma finds out, she’ll blame me for not knowing proper etiquette.”
Reginald was anxious; staying for a meal would delay things.
“Terry, maybe next time…”
Terrence interrupted him: “Uncle Reginald, if you don’t stay for a meal, it means you look down on your blind nephew.”
With that said, how could Reginald leave?
Reluctantly, Reginald said, “Terry, what are you saying? Alright then, I’ll shamelessly stay for lunch before leaving.”
“That’s more like it.” Terrence smiled on the surface and called Mrs. Hill to prepare more dishes for lunch.
Terrence had to stall Reginald. Even if Selene fell into police hands with slim chances of survival, there was still a possibility of staying alive. If Celestial Alliance got to Selene first, she would surely die.
An amnesiac Selene was half as dangerous.
Terrence couldn’t let Reginald inform Celestial Alliance to send assassins after Selene. Seeing Reginald take out his phone to contact Celestial Alliance members, he deliberately stood up and walked over to Reginald.
“Uncle Reginald, make yourself at home here,” Terrence said again to Mrs. Hill. “Go and ask Meredith to come down.”
Since he was blind now, Reginald could openly contact Celestial Alliance members while he pretended not to see it. He needed Meredith downstairs.
Mrs. Hill replied, “Yes, Mr. Sterling. I’ll go right away.”
Even though Reginald knew Terrence was blind, with him standing right there out of caution he didn’t contact Damien about dealing with Selene.
Soon after, Meredith came downstairs holding Little Lucky. Hearing the sound, Terrence said: “Meredith, accompany Uncle Reginald while I use the restroom. Officer Michaelson just came by and found out that Selene is part of Celestial Alliance; the police are already on their way to arrest her now. We need to be careful from now on.”
Terrence deliberately passed this information to Meredith so she would keep an eye on Reginald.
“Selene is part of Celestial Alliance? That’s terrifying,” Meredith acted convincingly as always. “Luckily the police found out in time. You go ahead to the restroom; I’ll entertain Uncle Reginald.”
Little Lucky had been scared by Reginald once before but being a child who forgets easily smiled happily upon seeing him again.
Terrence felt his way upstairs; he was going to call Harvey.
Meredith sat on the sofa next to Reginald with Little Lucky in her arms and smiled: “Uncle Reginald, have some fruit.”
The couple worked in tandem while Reginald could only bottle up his frustration and forced a smile: “Meredith, I need to use the restroom too; where is it?”
Meredith knew Reginald wanted to slip away; she couldn’t let him out of her sight or give him a chance to warn anyone.
Just as she was thinking about how to stop him Little Lucky reached out her chubby hand and grabbed Reginald’s phone…
