Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 513

Hearing this, Timothy nodded in satisfaction and said, "Emilia Quill is too clever. A fake-injured Irvin definitely won't be enough. If we can capture her best friend, Cordelia Lowell, or her grandmother, we need to make it happen—and soon."

Timothy had never given up on trying to capture Cordelia and Grandma. The problem was, Grandma rarely left the house.

I had also secured a large radius around her house, turning her home into an impenetrable fortress. Thus, the criminal organization hadn't found a single opportunity to make a move.

As for Cordelia, she already worked for a government agency. Plus, Mr. J—that high-ranking military official I once treated—had had her transferred to his military region to help excavate an ancient tomb. As such, the organization had an even slimmer chance of getting to her.

Simon was also aware that a severely wounded "Irvin" alone wasn't enough leverage. But he said, "That best friend of hers? No chance. As for her grandmother, the only chance we'll have of capturing her is if Henry Quill brings her here himself.

"We can do whatever we want to his daughter. But no matter how we've threatened him, he refuses to hand over his mother. We also can't push him too hard. He's got too many useful drugs in his hands."

To a criminal organization like theirs, Henry was an irreplaceable asset. It simply wasn't worth risking losing a talent like him and jeopardizing another important project for the sake of the research project I was on.

Timothy scoffed. "And here I thought he would do anything for that sweetheart of his. Turns out, he's quite a mama's boy."

Even Simon hadn't predicted this. After all, people like them, who were born criminals, had no concept of morals or family ties.

Henry was a talented pharmacologist. Yet, he only developed harmful drugs. Someone like him should've been just like them, born to inflict chaos in the world. But shockingly, he had a line he wouldn't cross and was loyal to Grandma.

Timothy and Simon watched through the surveillance feed as I ate the food they had prepared, and a lot of it. Seeing this, they changed the feed and no longer monitored me.
