Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 113

Isaac trusted Daniel completely and handed him the peach-shaped token without hesitation.

Daniel looked at the time and realized that he could finish treating Emma just in time to attend the Immortal Assembly.

"Looks like luck is on my side today," Daniel uttered with satisfaction as he drove toward Ashcroft Group.

Recently, Omari's people had been eerily quiet. Whether it was the Keaton family or the members of the Shadowspire Syndicate, they seemed to have completely disappeared as if everything were peaceful and calm.

But Daniel knew very well that the youth cream was the bait he had thrown out.

For the longtime employees of Ashcroft Group, this was undoubtedly great news.

Daniel waved his hand dismissively. "Have Mr. Fuentes handle it. It's best to leave professional matters to the professionals."

Technical personnel were the backbone of the company. It wasn't that Daniel didn't value them, but he wanted to use this opportunity to see if anyone suspicious would try to sneak in.

Laila nodded. "By the way, Mr. Ashcroft, if funding is tight, Riverston Group could—"

And this was just the beginning.
