CHAPTER 602: CHAPTER 602: THROWN INTO THE DUNGEON (2)

"I said, get out."

The senior officer was startled, daring not to say another word, and immediately retreated.

Quinn Thorne emerged from behind the Lord of the Dark Tower. He had arrived at the Umbral Zone that morning, and upon hearing something happened in the Dark Tower, he rushed over at once.

He looked at the Lord of the Dark Tower with great puzzlement and asked, "Boss, the Celestial Alliance is so arrogant, why don’t you just arrange for them to be eradicated?"

The Lord of the Dark Tower lowered his eyes, a slender silver needle danced between his fingers. After a moment, he said lightly, "Because of Raina."

Quinn Thorne was utterly shocked, "Boss, don’t tell me my sister-in-law is somehow connected to the Celestial Alliance?"

"Take a look at this," the Lord of the Dark Tower handed the silver needle to Quinn Thorne.

Quinn Thorne took it and examined it carefully. "The silver needle seems ordinary but is three times heavier than a regular one, and the tip is sharper. It’s clearly custom-made. If I remember correctly, my sister-in-law uses such needles. Boss, did my sister-in-law give you this needle as a token of love?"

The Lord of the Dark Tower shook his head, "This needle wasn’t given to me by your sister-in-law, I obtained it from Orion Rivers."

Quinn Thorne was even more surprised, "What?"

The Lord of the Dark Tower continued, "He also told me that he saw Jonah Rivers on the 18th."

Quinn Thorne instantly understood, "So the boss suspects the sister-in-law is in Orion Rivers’ hands." He furrowed his brows, "If that’s the case, her safety should be somewhat assured, but I’m afraid there might be other troubles."

The Lord of the Dark Tower’s gaze swept over him, "Continue."

"Boss, you must have heard too, the Alliance Hierarch of the Celestial Alliance isn’t just naturally fierce and belligerent, but more importantly, he’s a womanizer. Rumor has it he has three thousand male lovers, countless intimate confidantes, and even has a fling with Emperor Hades of the Hades Clan. Sister-in-law is so beautiful; with Orion Rivers’ nature, there’s no way he wouldn’t be tempted. A weak woman like her in his hands could be at his mercy."

The Lord of the Dark Tower’s expression turned grim, a trace of murderous intent flickered between his brows. After a while, he finally spoke, "If Orion Rivers treats Raina with respect, then so be it. But if there’s even a hint of offense, I will level the Celestial Alliance to the ground, and Orion Rivers will be hacked to pieces."

Quinn Thorne couldn’t help but shiver; how long had it been since he heard the boss speak in such a tone?

Every time the boss spoke in this manner before, it would mean a storm of blood and chaos.

Quinn Thorne couldn’t help but start praying, sincerely hoping Orion Rivers wouldn’t be so audacious. Otherwise, even a Daluo Golden Immortal couldn’t save him.

Afterward, the Lord of the Dark Tower didn’t speak again, merely lowered his eyes, gazing at the silver needle in his hand that gleamed with a sharp light, his brow cast with deep and distant emotion.

Marrying Raina was just an accident, but it was the most beautiful accident of his life.

He and Raina had been through a lot, and they’d come through it all. Although they hadn’t crossed the ultimate boundary, they were the closest people in this world.

He originally thought it was a new beginning, but who knew, he’d wake up to find Raina had been kidnapped.

He searched for a long time, but no matter what, he couldn’t find her. It was as if she had vanished into thin air.

The Lord of the Dark Tower closed his eyes, his mind filled with images of Raina.

Raina...

Raina...

Raina...
