Chapter 1285
Eleanor didn’t agree with his rationale. “Mr. Spencer, I’m not going there for fun, I’m going to find my
husband.”
Robin glanced at her dismissively. “So what? You’re looking for your husband, I’m looking for my
brother-in-law. What’s the issue?”
Baffled into silence by his retort, Eleanor found herself at a loss for words. Robin then asked her, “Do
you have any idea what the situation is like in the Area Opaca?”
She hadn’t asked Evan about the Area Opaca for fear of raising his suspicions. “I know where it is.
That’s enough.”
Robin’s aloof demeanor chilled slightly. “And how exactly do you know the location of the Area Opaca?”
Eleanor hesitated for a moment, then decided to trust Robin. She pulled out a golden leaf and a note,

Taking them, Robin glanced at the note before closely examining the golden leaf. This is an invitation to
the Area Opaca. The letter ‘A’ on the back stands for ‘Ace’, which is the nickname of Area Opaca.”
He looked up from the leaf to Eleanor. “The people behind the Area Opaca send out these invitations to
those they are particularly interested in. The fact that you received one means you’ve caught their
attention.”
Eleanor’s brow furrowed. “Does their interest in me mean that Bernard is still alive and they want to use
me as leverage to control him?”
Shaking his head, Robin replied, “I think they’re using Bernard as bait to lure you in. After all, Bernard
is already deeply involved in the Area Opaca. Whether he’s dead or alive, they can control him
directly.”
Upon hearing this, Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief. As long as her presence didn’t threaten Bernard,
she was okay with it. “Then why do they want to lure me in?”
Handing her back the golden leaf, Robin said, “You must have something they value to have caught
their attention.”
Confused, Eleanor asked, “What value could I possibly have?!
Robin extended a slender finger and tapped on her steering wheel. “Drive to the harbor. I’ll explain on
the way.”
Eleanor stared at Robin for a moment before starting the car and heading towards the harbor.
Robin didn’t explain Eleanor’s value to the Area Opaca during the drive because he didn’t know either.
But he did provide a thorough breakdown of the situation within the club.
Firstly, the origin of the name ‘Ace’. 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 hadn’t been able to take any action.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe 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 organization’s members.
The feud between the Siren Organization and Ace, and why Mr. Ben didn’t expose Bernard’s 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.
