Chapter 256
The report stunned all the members of the West family.
"Be more clear! Who surrounded us?" Lucius asked.
"I don't know. I think there are police and also the military... I think there are also men from the Martial League!" the messenger said fearfully. Everyone panicked.
“Access the villa's full surveillance system. Let's see what's going on," said Lucius firmly and got up.
There were surveillance cameras set up in all corners of the West family villa. Once they accessed it, they could see everything.
They all went to the control room. What they saw made their eyes go wide.
The whole villa had been surrounded. There were countless people outside.
"Those are police officers! The commissioner is leading them personally!" someone cried out when they saw the police.
"Those people are from the military! Which team is it? It can't be the elite team based outside the city, right?" someone barked as they saw the military uniforms.
"Those people look like they're from the Martial League branch headquarters. What? The national hero, Victor Cain, is here, too? What in the world is going on? Why is the villa being surrounded by all these people?"
The members of the West family were terrified. They did not know what was going on.
Dustin's face darkened as he looked at the screen. However, he smiled the next moment.
The Winter family...novelbin
It was one of the Seven Clans of Central Harbor, so it was not surprising that they had such power and influence.
Outside the West family villa, the leaders of the three groups of people met with each other.
Richard sent someone to bring over a mini laptop. He turned it on and clicked on it. There was a bright light, and then the image of two women appeared.
It was Margaret and Amara in the Wyatt family villa in Rivenesco.
Thanks to advanced technology, the two could see everything that was going on outside the West family villa. They could also influence events in real-time.
"Ma'am, we've surrounded the West family villa. Please let us know the next move," Richard said to Margaret politely after bowing.
Margaret's face was devoid of emotions. She looked the part of a lofty matriarch.
"Don't let anyone escape from the West family villa!" she ordered coldly.
"Yes, ma'am!"
"Enter the villa and send Dustin Fox a message. He has half an hour to give us the location of Bianca Winter and Elisa Wyatt. If you don't get information after half an hour, level the villa!" she commanded
Richard and Nathan both nodded.
After that, they discussed who would go in first to pass on the message.
"Mr. Cain, you used to serve the Martial League and are dubbed the greatest fighter of Lannopolis. I think it's best that you go," Richard said. He laughed and held his protruding belly.
"Indeed." Nathan nodded in
agreement. "Before we force him to tell us where the two ladies are, we cannot kill Dustin. With your abilities, I'm sure you'll easily capture him, Mr. Cain."
Victor's face darkened.
These two cunning foxes!
Why not go themselves in the first place?
Were they afraid that they would get injured if they did?
"You both overestimate me. I'm getting older now. How could I..." Victor immediately tried to refuse.
Richard immediately turned to the laptop and told Margaret that Victor was the best candidate for the job.
"You have a point. No matter how powerful Dustin is, he can't be more powerful than the greatest fighter in Lannopolis." Margaret and Amara both trusted Victor's abilities.
"Victor, you should lead the charge, then," Margaret said.
Victor turned livid.
Yet, he did not dare go against her orders. After all, Margaret had ties with the Martial League headquarters.
Victor cursed inwardly and headed for the West family villa.
"Please have someone pass on the news that I would like to see Mr. Fox," Victor said politely after entering the villa. His attitude had changed, and he treated the
members of the West family
vel
courteously.
