Chapter 993:
Since Victor was going to move them in two days, Allison took the chance to gather information from the guards every so often during that time.
âI saw your boss kill someone in the warehouse,â she said casually.
Allison acted like she was shaking but tried to appear calm.
âArenât you scared⦠of getting caught by the police?â she asked.
Amya joined in, saying on purpose, âThatâs right. If we die here, youâll all end up as fugitives with murder charges!â
The guard by the door scoffed, clearly unimpressed.
âMr. White already has dozens of lives on his conscience. If we were scared, we wouldnât be doing this job!â he said with a smug grin.
âAnd you know what? The police will never find this place,â the guard added with confidence. âWeâve been here for seven or eight years, just waiting to get on the Paradise cruise to meet that important person on the island.â
Allison squinted and replied, âI heard from Victor that heâs some kind of hideous freak. Is that true?â
âHow dare you call him that?â the guard shot back, clearly offended.
He then stood taller, acting all high and mighty.

âHeâs a well-known Mafia boss. If someone like you catches his eye, youâll never have to worry about food or clothes again. You should feel honored!â
At that moment, Amya gently pulled at Allisonâs sleeve.
They exchanged a knowing glance.
It was Daniel, after all.
Allison wasnât surprised. She spoke quietly. âWe donât need that kind of honor.â
Just then, Victor came into view from a short distance away.
He noticed a group gathered by the cell door and shot them a cold, hard look.
âWhat are you little punks talking about?â he barked.
âMr. White, youâre here. We werenât saying anything,â they quickly replied, panic clear in their voices.
In a hurry, they slammed the cell door shut, trying to act casual.
âWe⦠we were just making sure the door was locked,â they mumbled.
Victorâs eyes narrowed, like a snake preparing to strike.
He approached the door and kicked it open with force.
âYou call this locked?â he sneered.
Victor raised his hand and slapped the guard hard.
âGet outside and keep watch over the door!â he ordered.
âYes, yes, yes,â the guard stammered, backing away.
Victor stepped inside, and Allison immediately shielded Amya behind her.
