Chapter 1066
At that moment, Gideon was unsettled.
He could see that Scarlet and Dustin had known each other for a long time. Moreover, they were pretty close.
In fact, they were closer than he thought..
After all, Scarlet was known for being ruthless and decisive on the battlefield. She had always been that way since
she was 18.
She would always keep everyone at a distance, too. No one had seen her smile before, be it her family, friends, or
subordinates.
Right then, Scarlet was not just smiling. She was grinning.
It was as if she had become a completely different person. Her current behavior was the opposite of her usual cold

Gideon wondered if Scarlet had hit her head.
Otherwise, why was she smiling?
He even considered the possibility that Dustin had cast a spell to enchant her.
“Yup, I’ve sorted out the situation in Oakvale. We’ve killed several scapegoats as a warning. This should keep things
quiet for a while,” Scarlet answered truthfully.
Dustin nodded with a smile. “That’s good to hear. Since you’ve just arrived in Millsburg, have you eaten?”
“No,” Scarlet replied while shaking her head.
“Let’s go eat then! We can chat while eating.”
“Okay!” Scarlet agreed.
As Gideon watched them leave, a whirlwind of emotions surged within him.
-Since when did Scarlet become such a gentle person?
“Georgia!” Unable to contain his curiosity, he grabbed Scarlet’s assistant general.
Georgia frowned. “What is it?”
“Who’s that kid? Why is he so close to Lady Scarlet?” Gideon asked.
“Why are you so nosy? Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.” With that, Georgia rolled her eyes and left.
Gideon was left standing awkwardly. He turned to another assistant general. “Bridget?”
However, Bridget was even more blunt. She clearly did not want to engage in a conversation with him.
She just snorted and walked away.
Gideon gulped nervously. Instantly, he felt anxious.
He wasn’t sure if he had offended a prominent figure.
Meanwhile, in the Grants‘ mansion, Tyler’s trusted subordinate reported the situation to him.

“What happened? Isn’t today the day Trent ascended as the family head? Why were they arrested?”
“We’re not sure of the specific detail’s. But I heard it was a direct order from the Scarlet Warrior,” his trusted
subordinate reported with their head lowered.
Tyler frowned. “Scarlet Spanner? Why is she here?”
In the whole of Dragonmarsh, Tyler feared few people. However, Scarlet happened to be one of them.
He had to admit that she was better than him in various aspects.
“But this time, Scarlet traveled light. It doesn’t look like she’s on official duty. The Harmon family may have
offended her,” Tyler’s subordinate said.
“A bunch of thrash! Of all the people to offend, they had to offend that woman. They’re truly idiots! “Tyler sneered.
Then his subordinate asked cautiously, “Mr. Grant, shall we use our connections to save them?”
“There’s no need to offend her because of this foolish bunch. Let them fend for themselves,” Tyler answered coldly.
After all, Trent and the others were just his pawns.
If they did not serve their purpose, it would be best to cut them off.
“Mr. Grant, how will we get the treasure map without the puppets?” Tyler’s subordinate asked againi.
