Secrets Of The Neglected Wife

Chapter 976:

It was only then that they understood who Kellan truly was. He was the man who had once been crippled but had risen to build a vast business empire in Ontdale.

Anyone foolish enough to cross him met only one end—death.

The man with tattoos froze in fear when he realized what was happening.

He pleaded frantically, “Please… don’t kill me! I’ll share anything you need to know in the future!”

Allison thought for a moment and said, “Spare him for now. I need more information.”

Kellan gestured firmly, saying, “Follow Allison’s orders. Eliminate everyone else, but leave him alive.”

“Understood!” came the swift reply.

Moments later, the rest were silenced, their faces frozen in horror.noveldrama

They were taken away so quickly that they couldn’t even resist. The tattooed man, bound tightly, was so terrified that he lost control of himself.

“Allison, I’ve already instructed Sherman to look into it. We’ll have answers soon,” Kellan assured her.

He then bent down and carefully wiped her fingers clean.

The dock in Ontdale was as well-guarded as the one in Fleeingland. Every cruise ship here had powerful backers, and security was incredibly tight.

Allison’s expression darkened. “The ones we saw earlier were just low-level thugs from the junkyard. If I’m right, the real boss of the Shadow Nine is on that cruise ship.”

The actual leader wasn’t someone ordinary people could meet, let alone cross paths with.

As soon as she finished speaking, Sherman arrived with urgent news.

He hurried over and reported, “Mr. Lloyd, Ms. Clarke, we’ve uncovered something. The Shadow Nine is involved in sex trafficking. Their deals usually take place on the paradise cruise ship at Silver Harbor.” Sherman handed them a stack of documents, still catching his breath. “The boss is there too, his name is Victor White,” he added. “But there’s one thing I need to mention. We’ll need an invitation to get on board.”

Kellan’s tone was cold and unyielding. “Get an invitation, no matter what it takes.”

“Yes, Mr. Lloyd,” came the immediate response.

Allison paused, thinking carefully.

“Sherman, one more thing. Can you find out when the Paradise ship is scheduled to leave the dock?” she asked. “They wouldn’t move an entire cruise ship just to smuggle one person.”

Time was running out, and she knew that she had to act fast. Sherman nodded, but before looking into the ship’s schedule, he delivered some shocking news.

“Ms. Clarke, Miss Hayes’ parents weren’t actually kidnapped,” he revealed. “They gave her contact information to the Shadow Nine themselves. Then they staged the kidnapping recording to deceive her.” Sherman’s voice faltered as he spoke.

Who would have thought that Amya’s own parents would betray her?
