Chapter 1050

“You can rest now. I’ll stay here.”

He had known Derek for a long time, and his heart ached at the sight of his friend being wheeled into

surgery.

“No, thanks.”

Harlan didn’t press further.

Marcus then turned to Harlan and asked, “What about the two you captured?”

“They’re in the underground garage’s storage room,” Harlan replied.

These two were subordinates of Bruce. Both were injured but not gravely so. Before they had a chance

to retreat, Harlan had apprehended them.

“I think you should have a look at them.”

In the dimly lit storage room, a man’s painful whimper echoed as he spoke through his wound.

“Hey, do you have any regret? We don’t have much time left to live.

I wonder if that person is dead.”

“Even if he isn’t, we must die. That man is Marcus’ right-hand man.

Marcus must be seething with anger now. I hope he grants us a quick death. As for regret, I have none.

I just despise that we were sure to win, but we still didn’t kill Marcus.”

“Sure to win?”

“Yes. Bruce planned this operation meticulously. He even captured a woman and interrogated her

about Marcus’ injury. After learning the details, he chose tonight to strike.”

“How would that woman know if Marcus is injured?”

“I don’t know. I heard it from those who serve Bruce.”

Outside the door, Marcus and Harlan listened, anger brewing within them. A woman had betrayed

them.

Harlan’s brow furrowed. Which woman knew about Marcus’ injury? All the maids at his villa were

accounted for, and none had left. This woman couldn’t possibly be Millie.

With a swift kick, Harlan burst through the door, startling the two men inside.

His anger unabated, he strode forward and seized one of them by the hair.

“Who is that woman?”

“yhat… Woman?”

“Don’t feign ignorance. Who is the woman you spoke of?”
