Silviaâs heart also slowly sank when there was no sound of the line connecting.
Meanwhile, Curtis was handling Neilâs bail at the police station.
The second he picked up Neilâs phone, there happened to be a phone call. But just as he was about to answer it, the caller hung up.
âSorry, the number you have dialed cannot be reached at the moment. Please try again later.â
When Silvia heard the cold, robotic voice, she put down the receiver. Then she left the phone booth with Scorpionâs subordinate.
The both of them did not know that not long after they left, the phone in the booth suddenly rang.
Half an hour later, Silvia walked into a mansion.
In a European-styled decorated living room, Scorpion was wearing a mask as usual. There was a cup of red wine in his hand, and he was poised.
When he saw Silvia, he smirked.
âIris, welcome to our team for this mission. With you here, half the battle is won.â
Silvia was calm and expressionless, âWhatâs our scope?â
Scorpionâs subordinate was dissatisfied. He took two steps forward and pressed his gun against Silviaâs forehead.
In the next second, a scream rang out.
Before he could see Silviaâs moves, he felt a sharp pain in his wrist. His gun was already in Silviaâs hand and cocked against his forehead.
The surrounding people immediately aimed the weapons in their hands at Silvia, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Scorpion smiled and waved his hand to signal his men to back off. Looking at Silvia, he smiled and said, âIf you like this gun, you couldâve just told me. Why disrupt the peace here? Have a seat.â
Silvia sat across from him. While playing with the gun in her hand, she said, âThere are snipers lurking outside this mansion, one in each of the four directionsânorth, south, east, and west. There are six bodyguards from the front door to the entrance. Thereâs a total of eight bodyguards on the first floor of the villa, four on the second floor, and two on the third floor. Itâs not hard for me to kill you and escape.â
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce ï¤Chapter 417 Scorpion put down his glass and clapped. He sounded impressed. âAs expected of Iris. You entered from outside, but youâve already got this place figured out.â
âIâm only saying this in hopes that youâll cut the crap and get straight to the point.â
Scorpion laughed. âHelp us kill someone.â
âWho?â
Scorpion then briefed her on the missionâs outline.
This time, his team needed to kill an official of Dewland, but this official was careful in his day-to-day work. Hence, it was hard to find an opportunity to take him out. The day after tomorrow, he would be attending a banquet on a cruise ship. This was their chance to kill him.
After hearing this, Silvia frowned. âWhy not kill him before he attends the banquet at sea?â
âBecause itâs not just about killing the officer this time. Itâs about sending a message to others.â
Silvia was silent for a moment. Then she said with a calm expression, âI want all the information on that officer.â
âOkay, but this mission is dangerous. Thereâs a high chance you wonât return.â
The expression on Silviaâs face did not change in the slightest. Which of her previous missions would not end in death if she did not succeed?
However, when she thought of Neil, she subconsciously clenched her fists. She stared at Scorpion coldly and said, âOnce this mission is over, we will have nothing to do with each other.â
Scorpion nodded. âDonât worry. Iâm a man of my word!â
âWhen do we head out?â
âNow.â
Watch Out, CEO Daddy!
