Chapter 424
Richard Hampton was warning Morwen Xanthus that if something like this happened again, even her designation as the Saintess of the Azure Sea Royal Family would not be able to save her.
The maid asked fearfully, “Miss Xanthus, are we still… proceeding with the plan to attack the Kelley girl?”
This issue had now turned into a sore point for Morwen and a taboo subject that the maid should not have broached.
Morwen flung a cup at her straightaway and roared, “Get lost!”
The cup smashed into the maid’s head and blood began oozing. She grimaced in pain but sensibly held back her tears and hurriedly excused herself.
Morwen was so angry that her face turned downright ominous.
She had come to Lovell City with such high hopes, thinking that everything was under control. Yet on her first day in this city, when she went to Royal Bay joyfully, she was turned away at the entrance unceremoniously. She did not even get a chance to meet Richard.
She even learned from the servants at Royal Bay that he was about to get engaged…
Tomorrow was the last chance for her to take action.
At first, Morwen had planned for people to eliminate the scourge Tiffany Kelley today. To her dismay, not only did her plan not succeed, but she also received a terrifying warning letter.
In other words, Richard knew that she was the one who sent those people to kill Tiffany Kelley…
Morwen shuddered at this thought. She knew this man’s modus operandi very well and the underlying meaning of this warning letter.
It would be difficult to get rid of Tiffany in the future…
At the very least, she had to be extremely cautious.
It was another night before the storm.
Two inconspicuous cars cruised into Lovell City. One of the cars looked ordinary from the outside, but its interior was opulent and lush.
In the back seat of this car, a man with a treacherous air was playing with the lighter in his hand. The flame from the lighter illuminated the man’s seductive but sinister face intermittently.
This man was Felix Quaid.
In the front seat, Scarface Lorenzo turned around and asked excitedly but respectfully, “Master, what should we do next?”
They had searched for this treasure box for many years. Now that they finally knew where it was, they could no longer contain their excitement.
If the Harper family noticed something amiss and moved the treasure box elsewhere, wouldn’t all their efforts have been in vain?
Lorenzo continued, “Master, why don’t we sneak to the Harper family tonight and steal the treasure box? In case something unexpected happens

What’s the hurry?” Felix put away the lighter.
The lighter’s blue flame instantly disappeared, but his face looked even more enigmatic under the illumination of the Streetlights that spilled over into the car interior. “We have already waited for so long. There’s no need to rush.”

Lorenzo said cautiously, “But…we have hidden our tracks on our way here, so no one knows that we have come to Lovell City. This is the best time to attack. Otherwise…
“Otherwise, if Mr. Hampton finds out, everything will be over!”

Felix had faked his death by using dissolving chemicals to make Sandra Olson look like him and die in his place. This trick fooled Richard for now.
However, Richard pulled all the strings in Lovell City. If he found out that Felix was still alive and had come to Lovell City with some ulterior motive, they would not be able to get their hands on the treasure box anymore. Moreover, everyone would perish here.
As he listened to his henchman, Felix smiled faintly. “What’s there to be afraid of? Isn’t it Mr. Hampton’s engagement party the day after tomorrow?”
“It’s true that the engagement party will be held the day after tomorrow, but Mr. Hampton has too many subordinates. The longer we delay, the higher the risk of being discovered…” Lorenzo tried to convince his master again.
However, what Felix said next startled Lorenzo so much that he was tongue–tied for a long time.
“This is a once–in–a–lifetime opportunity. We have to give Mr. Hampton a big gift for this engagement party.” Felix narrowed his eyes.
Lorenzo gulped nervously and grumbled inwardly, ‘You are still so brazen when you are standing in your enemy’s home ground, even though you almost lost your life in earlier confrontations. What’s going on in that head of yours?”
However, he did not dare to say such things out loud. He could only ask with a puzzled expression, “Master, you mean…?”
“If we want to get the treasure box, we have to get rid of Richard Hampton,” Felix drawled,
Lorenzo thought his ears were playing tricks on him. “What? Master… this joke is not funny at all.”
It wasn’t like they hadn’t fought before. The entire castle at Isolated Riverdale had been taken down by Richard. Moreover, he did not deploy his full strength back then.
Such a terrifying opponent could not be eliminated so easily.
Felix smiled mysteriously. He lowered his voice and issued Lorenzo an instruction. “Find an opportunity to capture the Kelley couple and their son.”
‘What does this have to do with eliminating Richard Hampton? And what does this have to do with snatching the treasure box? Shouldn’t their goal be the Harper family? Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?‘ All these questions swirled in Lorenzo’s mind.
He wanted to ask further but Felix had leaned back in his seat with his eyes closed. His master’s languid and enigmatic demeanor belied the intimidating power inherent in his every action. Lorenzo knew better than to say too much.
Thus, he chose to nod meekly. “Yes, Master.”
On the day of the engagement party, it was 6:30 in the morning and the servants in the Kelley family’s villa had barely
woken up.
