Chapter 131 Lady Peony
Mason Kemp and Rainbow Carter finally realized who had been stalking them.
Just the name of "SHADOW" was enough to make them feel fearful, and now, the leader of SHADOW in the eastern district had come to them. How could they avoid being panicked?
Moreover, both of them thought of another question - if Billy could command Judge, then what was his identity?!
'Could he be King of the West, the master of SHADOW, Commander Gardner? Could it be that Lady Peony has committed another major crime recently, causing such a big shot to personally arrest her?' Mason and Rainbow were assuming inwardly.
"Can you say it now?" Judge continued to ask, "Confess honestly and I can help you seek leniency!"
"I... I don't know where she is..." Mason Kemp struggled to speak, "We... we are just peripheral members of Ink Pavilion, I'm not... not sure about her whereabouts..."
"Is that so? Fine, since you can't provide us with useful information," Billy sounded sterner as he continued, "Kill them both!"
"Yes!" Judge responded, flipping his wrist and the Cold Moon curved blade appeared in his hand.
"No, no..."
The two of them knelt down in front of Billy at the same time.
"Don't... don't kill me..." Mason Kemp quickly shouted, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you..."
After hesitating for a moment, he continued speaking, "Her rank is higher than mine. If it were any other day, I... I really wouldn't know her whereabouts. But... but today happens to be her birthday... According to her usual practice in previous years, even if she is busy, she will set aside time to hold a small birthday party at her villa.
"Where is her villa?" Judge asked.
"This is the specific address..." Mason Kemp trembled as he took a paper and pen from the side and wrote down an address to give to Judge.
"You better not be lying to us, or you'll regret it!" Judge took the address and looked at it.
Half an hour later, Billy and his two companions drove away, with Mason Kemp, Rainbow Carter, and all of Ink Pavilion's peripheral members taken away by SHADOW's men.
The address given by Mason Kemp was around 200 miles away from Ozin. According to administrative division, it belonged to the suburbs of Enssea.
At 4 PM, their Land Rover stopped at the foot of a beautiful mountain. In front of them was a small courtyard built against the mountain with its own entrance gate.
There was a sizable artificial lake at the entrance of the courtyard with several black swans and pairs of mandarin ducks playing in it. A delicately carved arch bridge connected to the main gate of this estate.
"She sure knows how to enjoy herself." After getting out of their car, Judge looked around admiringly.
"According to what Mason Kemp said, Lady Peony's official identity is vice president of Enssea Chamber Of Commerce. With Ink Pavilion backing her up behind the scenes she can easily make some money." Casey responded nonchalantly
"Let's go inside!" Billy scanned around before walking towards that arch bridge
Inside this estate there were people moving about everywhere; lively conversations were taking place between groups holding red wine glasses dressed in fashionable clothing for both men and women alike .
Around this estate there were about thirty black-clad men standing like javelins on standby; they had strong builds and imposing aura .
Not far from where they stood near entrance gate , several middle-aged men and women gathered around a tall woman chatting cheerfully .
The woman appeared about thirty-five years old with delicate features that exuded natural charm. There was also beauty mark on her forehead which resembled grains rice. Her skin was as smooth as jade but fragile like porcelain. Standing about 5. 6 ft tall, she had graceful posture and elegant demeanor. Her whole body emitted mature aura reminiscent that only came from someone who had lived through many experiences .
No wonder Osmond Watkins and Black Eagle both said that Lady Peony was a beautiful woman, their words were indeed true.
"Luna, happy birthday!" One of the young masters raised his glass and spoke, "I wish you many more years like this one and many more to come!"
Lady Peony's full name was Luna Wilkinson. People outside of Ink Pavilion, regardless of age or gender, all call her Luna.
"Thank you!" Luna Wilkinson smiled sweetly and took a sip from her glass.
"Luna, about that project you helped me with last time, please continue to keep an eye on it." The young man finished his drink in one gulp before continuing.
"You can rest assured, there will be results in three days." Luna Wilkinson replied with a smile.
"Thank you so much!" The young man's eyes lit up.
"Don't mention it!"
Just then, footsteps sounded.
A senior man and middle-aged man led the way with several followers behind them.
"Excuse me, everyone. " Seeing the two men approaching her table, Luna excused herself from those around her to greet them warmly.
"Mr Schneider, you're here! You really surprised me!" When she reached the two men, she greeted them warmly while smiling at Marvin Schneider, the old man.
"Luna, it's your fault, you didn't tell me about your birthday banquet? Don't tell me I'm too old for your taste?" Marvin Schneider laughed as he responded to Luna Wilkinson's greeting.
"You're joking, Mr Schneider. I didn't want to trouble you." Luna Wilkinson replied sweetly before turning towards the middle-aged man. "May I ask who this gentleman is?"
"Let me introduce him," Marvin Schneider laughed and said, "This is Ted Arquette whom I mentioned last time we spoke, Deputy Inspector of the Special Patrol Squadron of Enssea."
"I was just talking to him when I heard about the party here, so we came together to have a drink."
As soon as Marvin Schneider spoke, everyone around turned to look at him with wary eyes. Most people there knew what kind of organization the Special Patrol Squadron was - it was an entity that went straight to the capital city and even those in high places were afraid of them.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
And Deputy Inspector's position within the Special Patrol was quite a powerful one; it was only second to Provincial Governor and the Inspector.
"Ms Wilkinson, Luna, I'm coming here without invitation, I'm not bothering you, am I?" asked Ted Arquette.
"Mr Arquette, of course not. Welcome to my party." Luna Wilkinson shook hands with him before giving him another charming smile. "You're our honored guest, we might not even be able to invite you if we tried! There's no question of disturbing us!"
After that, she looked back at Marvin Schneider and said, "Mr Schneider, Mr Arquette, let's go inside!"
"Alright!" Ted Arquette laughed heartily as they made their way towards the villa.
Just then, two muffled sounds rang out from outside the estate gate followed by two black-clad men flying through the air before crashing onto the ground unconscious. Soon after, Billy and his companions walked in steadily.
Luna Wilkinson's eyes flickered with an imperceptible chill as she witnessed the scene before her.
"Who are you? Do you know where you are? How dare you. That is very presumptuous." The black- clad men inside the estate began walking towards the door.
"The party ends here today, everyone please leave!" Judge ignored the group of black-clad men and spoke loudly to the men and women inside the estate.
