NovelEnglish“Ms. Wand, I…”
“What, a broken leg wasn’t enough for you? Do you want to lose your life this time?”
Sasha’s eyes were filled with an icy-cold hostility as she stared at the Jetroinian woman limping before
her.
Akiko shuddered when she saw her face and recalled how she was dragged away to have her leg
broken.
“Out of my way!” Sasha shouted impatiently.
Akiko simply stared at her nervously before tossing her crutches aside and kneeling down before her.
“Ms. Wand, please let me say what I came to say! I promise I’ll leave right after! She’ll kill me if I don’t
deliver the message!” Akiko begged, while bowing with her head down on the ground.
As it turned out, Yancy wasn’t able to locate Sasha after the latter cut off all means of communications,
so she sent Akiko, who was still in Avenport instead.
Sasha was livid with rage, but she saw the attention they were receiving from the surrounding crowd
and agreed to hear her out.

“Really? You’ll hear me out?” Akiko looked up excitedly in response. “Well, it’s nothing much, really.
Mrs. Tsurka wanted me to tell you she sent your family something. She said you should go look if you
have the time.”
“What did you say? What the hell did she send my family? What’s this b*tch up to this time? Were
those two bullets not enough for her? Does she want me to put another one in her?”
The expression on Sasha’s face turned grim instantly, and she looked like she wanted to rip Yancy to
shreds right then and there.
After all, there was no way she could possibly keep her cool knowing her dad was in danger.
Unfortunately, Akiko was just a messenger who didn’t know all that much.
“I… I don’t know… All she said was for you to rush over as soon as possible…”
That last sentence struck Sasha like a bolt from the blue. She threw her grocery basket aside as she
ran out of the supermarket.
Oh, Dad… Please be all right!
She gave Sabrina a call and had her sister-in-law look after the kids at home while she drove toward
the Wand residence as quickly as she could.
Sasha had just arrived at the front door when she heard the housemaid yelling, “Mr. Wand! Mr. Wand!”
With her mind blank from anxiety, Sasha rushed into the house. “Dad! Dad…”
She finally saw what had happened at home, but it was all too late. Rufus was already lying motionless
on the garden bench.
There was a recently opened parcel on the ground with some oxidized blue liquid inside.
“Ahhhhhhh!” Sasha screamed at the top of her lungs.
Meanwhile, Sebastian was in a hotel talking to Calvin on the phone.
Eric’s men have yet to make their move after Frieda’s body was brought to SteelFort, but I know they’re
lying in wait nearby. Those b*stards would surely strike the moment they hear about Frieda being
transported. We’d better get her cremated as soon as possible!
“I have a suggestion, Mr. Hayes. Would you care to listen?”
“Go ahead.”
“If you don’t mind, we could cremate Mdm. Frieda right here in SteelFort. It’s big enough and has the
firepower required. I know it may be a little disrespectful to do so, but rest assured that we will keep her

Sebastian fell silent upon hearing that.
I wanted to give Frieda a proper burial as I owe her way too much while she was alive… Due to her
mental illness and Frederick being the one to raise me, I rarely cared about her at all. I want to make it
up to her as best I can, but now… I’m being pushed to the point that I can’t even give her a proper
burial.
“All right, we’ll go with your suggestion.”
He hung up the phone after that and slumped against the couch with his head hung low.
However, it wasn’t long before he got another call from Karl, who was in charge of protecting Sasha.
“We’ve got trouble, Mr. Hayes! Something has happened to Mr. Wand!”
Sebastian jumped to his feet instantly. “What? What happened?”
“Yancy poisoned him. She really took the bait and made her move, sir. As Mrs. Hayes didn’t answer her
call last night, Yancy sent someone to deliver a message to her. We don’t know what the message
was, but Mrs. Hayes rushed over to the Wand residence immediately afterward and found her father
unconscious.”
Karl sounded both angry and anxious at the same time.
