CHAPTER 422: CHAPTER 422: SOMETHING’S REALLY OFF

That night, a private jet landed at The Midnight Syndicate Base.

Damian Quinn wore a black overcoat, standing tall and straight. His handsome and alluring face showed no expression as he took long strides and walked out slowly.

There was an inherent commanding presence in his every movement, making people feel a chill.

"Leader!"

Helios had already brought the team waiting here. As soon as they saw Damian Quinn, their faces involuntarily showed respect and fear, immediately stepping forward respectfully.

Damian Quinn’s cold gaze fell on him, his voice extremely icy, "You failed to catch him twice in a row, disgracing The Midnight Syndicate."

Helios hung his head in shame, "Leader, not only is that person mysterious, but also very strong..."

"I don’t want to hear excuses, go punish yourself."

Damian Quinn coldly interrupted him, showing a bit of impatience on his handsome face.

"Next time if you’re so useless, get out of The Midnight Syndicate."

The Midnight Syndicate cannot tolerate incompetence.

"Yes, Leader."

Helios immediately agreed respectfully, feeling no resentment towards Damian Quinn’s punishment. Although that person’s strength was terrifying, losing him twice was indeed Helios’s negligence and deserved punishment.

"Master Damian, you traveled a long way today and must be tired. Do you want to rest now?" Chase Sherman inquired.

"No need."

Damian Quinn flatly refused, taking off his black overcoat and casually rolling up his shirt sleeves, exuding a cool and noble aura.

"First, let’s do business, bring the map."

Hearing this, Chase Sherman shook his head helplessly, clicking his tongue. Their Master Damian really wouldn’t rest for a moment just to see Miss Serena earlier!

"Yes, Master Damian."

Soon, Chase Sherman respectfully presented the map to him.

Damian Quinn glanced at the map, his captivating almond eyes narrowing slightly, pondering for a moment, then spoke in a deep voice.

"First was the munitions factory, then Caesar’s Casino, tomorrow it will be the dock. Chase, immediately arrange manpower to ambush at the dock."

Chase Sherman asked in confusion, "Master Damian, how can you be sure his target tomorrow will be the dock? Our people haven’t tracked his movements, so we don’t know what he’ll do next..."

Damian Quinn’s long, narrow eyes held a deep coldness, making people feel a chill, "The places he blew up were all significant for The Midnight Syndicate. This dock is the most important place for the syndicate, a must-pass for maritime goods. He definitely won’t let it go."

"Moreover, the dock’s location is spacious and remote, the most suitable place to escape. He will surely escape Ystoria amidst the chaos after blowing up the dock."

After hearing this, Chase Sherman suddenly understood, quickly nodding respectfully, "Got it, Master Damian, I’ll make arrangements now!"

"Hmm."

Damian Quinn casually nodded, a trace of a grim look in his eyes.

To dare act so arrogantly and wildly on his turf, tomorrow would be the death day for that ignorant thing!

He couldn’t video call his little girl today, otherwise, with her smarts, she would easily notice he wasn’t in Imperia.

Damian Quinn forcefully suppressed his longing for her, putting down his cell phone.

He would soon be able to go to Yondale to see his little girl, not anxious for this short while!

...

The motel.

"Alliance Hierarch, I’ve prepared everything you asked for," Finn reported respectfully, then looked at the shabby room, frowning.

The Midnight Syndicate’s hunt was so intense, forcing their Alliance Hierarch to stay in such a run-down place!

"Hmm."

Serena Everett nodded, not showing any disdain, sitting lazily on the sofa with her legs crossed.

During past missions, she faced all kinds of hardships. Compared to sleeping in piles of corpses before, this was much better.

"Then Alliance Hierarch, you should rest early. I’ll leave now."

"Alright."

As soon as Serena Everett opened her phone, there were 99+ messages.

She had a small group with the five Everetts.

Elliot Everett: [Serena, how have you been in Yondale? If there’s anything you’re not used to, let me know. I’ll take care of it for you.]

Steven Everett immediately chimed in, [Big Brother is busy with a lot, Serena if you need anything, just ask Second Brother!]

Elliot Everett clearly without words, [Second brother, I think you’d fit as the sixth brother.]

Ian Everett and Niall Everett also immediately chimed in.

[Serena, if there’s anything, just come to Fourth Brother, no need to trouble Big Brother and the others. They’re getting old!]

[Exactly Serena, Fifth Brother is still young, whatever you need, just ask Fifth Brother. I can fly to Yondale anytime for our beloved sister!]

Seeing the messages from Ian Everett and Niall Everett, Elliot Everett and Steven Everett were gradually feeling murderous. These two idiotic brothers were useless!

But Serena Everett merely smiled, feeling warmth inside, her fingertips quickly typing.

[I’m doing fine in Yondale, no need to worry.]

Ian Everett: [Hehe, our beloved sister replied to me!]

Niall Everett: [Serena, have you been thinking of Fifth Brother? Looking forward to bjg]

With that remark, the group chat instantly exploded into arguments.

Elliot Everett: [Thinking of you? If Serena’s thinking of anyone, it’d be me!]

Steven Everett: [Big Brother, you’re too confident. Serena and I are the closest. She’d think of me, right, Serena!?]

Niall Everett: [??? Are you all mistaken? I’ve been with Serena the longest. Serena would think of me!]

Ian Everett: [Eh, no need to argue, none of you can match my position in Serena’s heart. I’m her moneymaker, Serena must be thinking of me now!]

Even the usually absent Bianca Everett joined the fray to argue.

Bianca Everett: [Heh, Serena entrusted her most valued experiment to me. I’m the most important brother in her heart. She’d think of me!]

Watching the never-ending debate among the five, Serena Everett rubbed her forehead in frustration and silently exited the group chat.

Even being a master of keeping things balanced, she couldn’t keep five bowls level!

No matter who she claimed to miss, the other four would certainly cause trouble!

Serena Everett lightly bit her back teeth, clicking her tongue.

Too many brothers is not necessarily a good thing!

Serena Everett did not reply to their messages further but turned to reply to other ones. As the clock hit 9 PM, oddly, that foxy man hadn’t video-called her today!

Serena Everett raised her eyebrows, her incredibly beautiful fox eyes flashing with suspicion.

At this time every day, that clingy fox would punctually video call her, but today... not a single call...

Serena Everett clicked into Damian Quinn’s chat window and immediately dialed a video call over.

But as soon as she dialed for a second, it was hung up.

Serena Everett’s brows furrowed instantly; he actually rejected her video call?!

Something was off, incredibly off!
