Chapter 458 After Bernard finished giving orders, he put down his phone and dragged himself to the study.
He took out another phone specifically used for contacting the organization members and sent a message to Caleb.
After Caleb pushed Sophie into the basement, he took off his face mask and took out the vibrating phone. He glanced at it, and quickly replied, âKidnapped her already.â
He then sent an address to Bernard, who casually glanced at it before turning off his phone and chugging down a cup of strong coffee on the table.
He put on black gloves, grabbed his mask, and hurried towards the door. As he walked towards the elevator, he could faintly hear Pearceâs voice, âYou guys keep carrying me up and down the stairs, over and over again. What the hell do you want?!â
Four burly men carried him by his hands and feet, up and down, making him so dizzy!
As the private elevator doors opened, the bodyguards stopped teasing Pearce when they saw the tall, coldâlooking man in front of them. They threw Pearce onto the ground.
With a thud, Pearce violently hit the ground, dazed and disoriented. Then, he saw a face wearing a bronzeâgold mask.
âMr. Law?!
Pearce struggled to get up from the floor, leaning against the wall, weak and powerless, but still asked loudly.
âWhereâs Eleanor? What did you do to her? Why isnât she out?!â He asked.
Bernard glanced at him indifferently and stepped into the elevator without a care.
Pearce wouldnât let him go, clenching his fists and staring him down.
âIf you donât hand over Eleanor, Iâll fight you to the end today!â Pearce said.
The bodyguard behind him helplessly held his forehead and slapped Pearce, sending him flying onto the elevator.
Then the bodyguard dragged Pearce out and pressed the elevator button for the man inside.
As the elevator doors closed, the manâs cold voice came from inside, âDislocate his right hand for three days!â
Hearing this order, Pearceâs face contorted with anger, âMy right hand is for drawing designs, can you pick another one?!!!â
Bernard stepped out of the private elevator and got into his Bugatti sports car.
He removed his mask, started the car, and quickly drove to the address Caleb had sent.
Half an hour later, Bernard put his mask back on and got out of the car.
The powerful aura emanating from his body as he stepped out of the car was enough to instill fear in anyone.
His long, straight legs beneath his uniform pants took steady steps as he walked into the dimly lit basement.
Sophie, hearing footsteps approaching, shrank into the corner and hugged herself tightly as the lights in the basement turned on.
She looked up at the man slowly walking down the steps.
When her eyes met the bronzeâgold mask, Sophie trembled in fear.
This man was the leader of the gang. She had only seen him once before, but that was enough to leave a lasting impression.
That night, he had approached her just like this, not saying a word, just coldly staring at her.

She couldnât see the eyes hidden beneath the mask, but she felt they were frightening.
She still didnât understand why these people kept bothering her every month.
Although they had never done anything particularly severe to her, the physical and mental pain never ceased.
She had sent countless people to investigate the gangâs origins, but every time they were about to discover something, someone would intercept and destroy the information.
That was when she realized these people were not ordinaryâthey had powerful backgrounds, so powerful even she couldnât reach them. As the man approached her and slightly tilted his head, looking down at her condescendingly, Sophie trembled and finally spoke, âWho the hell are you? Why do you keep torturing me like this?â
Three years of tomment was enough to break anyone, let alone the daughter of the Ratliff family.
Bemard removed his mask, revealing his handsome face.
His arrogant gaze fell on her making Sophie, unbelievingly, widen her dark eyes.
