Suddenly, the other end fell silent, and it was only after a long time that Valant’s careful and tentative voice sounded. “P-President Nolan?” “Not bad, you still recognize my voice. Now tell me, how do you want to die?”
Valant’s voice was tinged with doubt as he asked, “W-Wait a minute. Is there some kind of misunderstanding, President Nolan? I don’t understand what you’re saying. What did I do?” Eugene said in a chilling voice, “Your men came to Promise Island!”
Valant denied, “Impossible! President Nolan, even if I went after someone, I wouldn’t target you. This must be a misunderstanding. I didn’t order my men to go to Promise Island at all!” ‘Don’t you know Casper Schmidt?”
“Casper Schmidt? You saw him?” Eugene snarled coldly, “He led seven people to harm my mother today. Valant, if you don’t give me an explanation, I’ll destroy Dragon’s Breath!”
It was only then that Valant’s voice regained clarity, as if he had sat upright. “President Nolan, he is Dragon’s Breath’s traitor. Some time ago, I took on a mission to steal the princess of Eurosia’s necklace, and he did not return to Dragon’s Breath after stealing it. In the end, I had to pay the employers double the fee. I’m looking for him as well. If you see him, please hold onto him for me.”
Eugene’s eyes narrowed. Why are so many people aiming to steal Eurosia’s necklace?
“Are you saying that he wasn’t under your orders?” “No, President Nolan, please believe me. Dragon’s Breath still has to rely on Promise Island, so how could I think of offending you?”
Eugene conceded, ‘All right, I’ll wait for you at Promise Island. If I don’t see you tomorrow, just wait to collect the corpses of the people of Dragon’s Breath!” Valant hurriedly replied, “Yes, yes, I’ll definitely be there tomorrow.”
Only after Eugene hung up the phone did he look at Casper. “How dare you!” Understanding the situation from his words, Kyle stepped harder with his foot. “How dare you lie to us! Speak! Where the hell are your from?”
Casper felt like his head was going to be trampled. He did not expect Eugene to have contact with Valant, and he did not imagine that his efforts would fail after days of planning and sending out a large number of people. All of a sudden, he felt disheartened and did not know what to do. Previously, he did not dare to return to Dragon’s Breath because he had not completed his mission. This time, not only did he fail to get rid of his target, but the evidence he had planted was also discovered. Was death the only way out for him?
Seeing that he wasn’t answering, Eugene said, “You can choose not to say anything, but can you guarantee that the seven other people won’t say anything either? Tomorrow, Valant will come over, and I will hand you over to him. I guarantee that you will be a hundred times worse off in his hands than in mine without me having to do anything myself, so keep your mouth shut if you insist!”
Saying that, he ordered the men beside him, “Take him back. Keep an eye on him and don’t get him killed.” Casper was so frightened that he hurriedly shouted, “Wait, wait!”
Valant had many ways of torturing people, and. was sickeningly cruel. He had personally seen a man who had been plied with so many aphrodisiacs by Valant that his lower body had burst as a result. Not only that, but when someone else committed a mistake, Valant. ordered someone to castrate them. This was also the reason why he chose to live a life on the run rather than go back when he didn’t complete his mission last time. Now that Eugene was planning to hand him over to Valant, he figured he might as well kill him on the spot.
“Don’t hand me over to Mr. Meister!” Casper begged. Eugene did not reply, his expression casual and lazy as he looked at him, seemingly not caring whether he spoke or not.
Casper looked at him and asked, “Will you let me go if I tell you?”
