Chapter 1285 Eleanor didnât agree with his rationale. âMr. Spencer, Iâm not going there for fun, Iâm going to find my husband.â
Robin glanced at her dismissively. âSo what? Youâre looking for your husband, Iâm looking for my brother-in-law. Whatâs the issue?â
Baffled into silence by his retort, Eleanor found herself at a loss for words. Robin then asked her, âDo you have any idea what the situation is like in the Area Opaca?â
She hadnât asked Evan about the Area Opaca for fear of raising his suspicions. âI know where it is. Thatâs enough.â
Robinâs aloof demeanor chilled slightly. âAnd how exactly do you know the location of the Area Opaca?â
Eleanor hesitated for a moment, then decided to trust Robin. She pulled out a golden leaf and a note, handed them to him. âA little girl gave these to me today.â
Taking them, Robin glanced at the note before closely examining the golden leaf. This is an invitation to the Area Opaca. The letter âAâ on the back stands for âAceâ, which is the nickname of Area Opaca.â
He looked up from the leaf to Eleanor. âThe people behind the Area Opaca send out these invitations to those they are particularly interested in. The fact that you received one means youâve caught their attention.â
Eleanorâs brow furrowed. âDoes their interest in me mean that Bernard is still alive and they want to use me as leverage to control him?â
Shaking his head, Robin replied, âI think theyâre using Bernard as bait to lure you in. After all, Bernard is already deeply involved in the Area Opaca.
Whether heâs dead or alive, they can control him directly.â
Upon hearing this, Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief. As long as her presence didnât threaten Bernard, she was okay with it. âThen why do they want to lure me in?â
Handing her back the golden leaf, Robin said, âYou must have something they value to have caught their attention.â
Confused, Eleanor asked, âWhat value could I possibly have?!
Robin extended a slender finger and tapped on her steering wheel. âDrive to the harbor. Iâll explain on the way.â
Eleanor stared at Robin for a moment before starting the car and heading towards the harbor.

ï¤Chapter 1284 Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END)
ï¤Chapter 1765 (END)
Robin didnât explain Eleanorâs value to the Area Opaca during the drive because he didnât know either. But he did provide a thorough breakdown of the situation within the club.
Firstly, the origin of the name âAceâ. On the surface, Ace is a place for the rich and gamblers to entertain themselves. But its actual purpose was to target the Siren Organization. However, without any information about the members of the Siren Organization, they hadnât been able to take any action.
The recent massacres Evan mentioned were due to a member of the Siren Organization named Mr. Ben defecting to Ace with a list of some of the organizationâs members.
The feud between the Siren Organization and Ace, and why Mr. Ben didnât expose Bernardâs identity, were things Evan was unclear about. All he knew was that the puppet master behind Ace was even more powerful than Mr. Penrod, the founder of the Siren Organization.
The fact that a leader like Bernard had to infiltrate the club personally to find the puppet master indicated that the person pulling the strings at Ace was either on par with or even more powerful than their own influential families. But exactly who that might be was still a mystery.
After all, there were many around the world who could match or surpass their families in power. Central European hidden billionaires, Southern European low-profile clans, Nordic royalty, the power players of North Funland, Australia, and even unknown territories. Any of them could potentially be the one behind the Area Opaca.
