In reality, as early as a few days ago, what Lydia did in Bashra had already reached Bardot.
Everyone knew that Lydia, the eldest daughter of the Rothschilds, was stirring up trouble in Qari recently.
Among them, Lydia’s reckless behavior left a deep impression on them. She was the person in charge of this attack, which was in line with her past personality.
Solander’s little trick did not elude Benita’s cognition.
“It seems that Mr. Solander also has a lot of opinions on the Rothschilds,” Benita whispered, his voice was inaudible.
Upstairs in the mosque, Lydia was fleeing while retreating under Edmund’s protection.
At this moment, she had put on a black veil to conceal her identity.
She understood that the most urgent task now was to escape from this place as soon as possible. No one could save her if she was caught. Even her family would abandon her mercilessly. After all, even if the Rothschilds were powerful, they would not want to bear the charge of provoking international disputes.
Furthermore, the countries involved this time were not only weak and small countries like Qari, but also traditional allies of the United States such as the United Kingdom and Germany.
“Damn it, they better not let me find out who betrayed me. Otherwise, I will teach them a severe lesson!”
Lydia mumbled angrily while retreating quickly.
By now, she had roughly understood what had happened.
Unsurprisingly, her plan had been noticed long before this, but the other party kept silent just so she could fall into their trap. Then, when Lydia’s side thought that they had gained control of the overall situation and were ready to act, the other party would fish in troubled waters and put Lydia at a disadvantage.
In reality, the initial firefight in the mosque was not aimed at the guests in the lobby, but the group Edmund brought.
The mysterious force first attacked Edmund’s men in an ambush in the church, making them think that their plan had been exposed, causing them to launch their attack in advance.
After that, the mysterious force did not focus on the firefight with Edmund’s people but immediately sent people to ‘cover’ Kant and other members of the five major families to divert the calamity.
Edmund led Lydia to a stone gate with a look of excitement on his face. As long as they walked through this tunnel, they would be safe. There was also joy on Lydia’s face.
“It’s you!” He spotted Rebbeca crawling over with his men right in front of him.
Edmund had previously fought Rebbeca while he was under Yves’ leadership.
Rebbeca had left a deep impression on him at the time, so now, even though Rebbeca was wearing a mask, he still recognized Rebbeca with just a glance. Although Lydia had never met Rebbeca face to face before, she could guess Rebbeca’s identity instantly.
