Chapter 410
Following their discussion, Kenneth took Cassandra for a stroll through Hydias.
At Julius’s suggestion, they went to a street where the business was still open, although it was almost evening.
Neon lights illuminated the night. From a high vantage point, it appeared radiant. This street was the liveliest in Hydias, and also known as the most beautiful place on the continent for its tasty delicious food and enjoyable scenery.
Due to her hectic schedule, Cassandra used to come out after midnight and either get something to eat on the nearby street or visit other streets where businesses
were open.
However, those places paled compared to this street.
“Aydan, this place is so beautiful,” Cassandra exclaimed. Kenneth assumed the identity of Aydan to enter the village covertly. They still had to exercise caution in case they were followed by men other than Julius, although we were now outside.
Cassandra spoke in a male voice as a result. To outsiders, they resembled a couple of attractive homosexual men.
Kenneth sighed. “Yes, this place should be pure.”
Cassandra understood what Kenneth meant. This place would be drug–free in a few days after the drug dealer was busted.
“Don’t ponder over it. Let’s chill out tonight.” Kenneth said to Cassandra in a relaxed tone, no longer looking worried.
Everything was under control. Why didn’t they enjoy the moment now that they were outside?
Cassandra was overwhelmed by the locals‘ enthusiasm.
Several gorgeous girls shoved Cassandra into the center of the crowd. More than a dozen girls dressed in uniforms started dancing around her, with some of them. even pushing her to jump together.
Cassandra was at a loss for what to do.
Kenneth intended to pull Cassandra from the crowd, but those performers were encircling her, making it impossible for him to get close to her.

“Faye, come here,” he shouted. These people were so weird. Why didn’t they surround other people? He had no chance to approach her at all.
Cassandra thought she was the target of the performance. They used to share a half–minute dance routine with tourists. However, five minutes had gone by and they still hadn’t finished, so Cassandra figured they should have come for her.
This alerted her. “All right, I’ll be out!”
Cassandra wanted to rush out, but these performers changed their performance positions and surrounded Cassandra shoulder to shoulder, still dancing with smiles.
Julius became alarmed upon seeing this as well.
However, he couldn’t shoot because there were too many people.
Yet, just as he was trying to figure out a way, a gunshot suddenly sounded, causing everyone to scream and run away.
Those performers fell to the ground, unconscious.
Cassandra’s face darkened. Who was behind all this?
Kenneth rushed to Cassandra and asked with concern, “Cassie, are you okay?” Then he began to check if she had any injuries.
“I’m fine. They didn’t do anything to me except surround me.” Suddenly, Cassandra sensed someone approaching them.
Julius became anxious that someone had taken advantage of the circumstance.
The lead man, whose arms were covered in tattoos, was extremely muscular and had one eye missing. To put it simply, he was strong and bulky.
“Are you Dr. Quirke?” he asked, his demeanor belying a hint of contempt.
“Who told you that?” Cassandra asked coldly. She glanced at the performers lying on the ground. “Did you send these people?”
“This is a meeting gift for you, Dr. Quirke. I hope you enjoyed it.” The tattooed man laughed out loud and took a few steps forward.
“My boss invites you to go visit him. Would you like to go?” It sounded more like an unquestionable demand than a negotiation in his tone.

Cassandra shook her head. “I don’t just meet anybody. The way you invited me bothers me. Maybe I can consider meeting your boss”
The tattooed man stopped smiling and said coldly, “So, are you turning me down?”
“Now that you know who I am, do you think I will be threatened by you? Don’t hold me in such low regard.” Faye wasn’t threatened.
Who did he think he was to act so haughtily in her presence?
Besides, at least half of these people were drug addicts. Why did she go with them? She wasn’t blind.
“You have to come with me whether you feel threatened or not. Don’t let my boss wait too long. Otherwise, you can’t bear the consequences.” Suddenly, those behind him and Cassandra were encircling her as the tattooed man waved his hand. gravely.
Julius shouted harshly, “Don’t you know that Dr. Quirke is Simon’s guest of honor? Is your boss going to oppose him?”
Julius recognized this man, who was Simon’s sworn enemy, Dominic’s subordinate. He didn’t expect them to get the news so soon.
But with the Internet now available, everyone was aware that Faye was treating
