Chapter 2794
"But how did Everett get into contact with the Eastern Falcon?" Max asked, puzzled.
Everett used to be an ordinary, average Joe who would not stand out from a crowd even if he tried, so it was a wonder as to how he had become so formidable.
Obtaining the Water Crest, making deals with Lawrence, and conspiring with the elusive Eastern Falcon were just a list of things he had done. It was now anyone's guess as to what else Everett had up his sleeves.
"Perhaps we've underestimated him from the very beginning. " Nicole's eyes darkened.
Initially, everyone was of the opinion that Everett was not particularly well-regarded, even in Damien's family, but they had forgotten that the more inconspicuous someone seemed, the more likely they were to harbor something sinister.
They should have already noticed how cunning Everett was when he went out of his way to plot against their grandfather, Benjamin. However, they had overlooked how wicked of a person he truly was because his disposition indicated nothing out of the ordinary.
"If Everett is indeed conspiring with Eastern Falcon, he might go big," Max remarked with concern.
The fact that Everett was working with Lawrence had already put them on guard, and at this juncture, they could only wonder what else Everett might do after he joined forces with the mysterious Eastern Falcon organization.
"Don't worry, he won't make a move for the time being. We just need to be prepared in advance." Nicole narrowed her eyes.
'Even if Everett is intent on taking us down, he can't afford to act out of impulse for now. He still needs to wait for the right moment,' she thought.
Jared then turned to Max and ordered, "Send a message to Zane and tell him to investigate how Everett managed to contact Eastern Falcon. Find out what transactions and shared interests are involved."
"Yes," Max respectfully replied.
Indeed, the organization would not have worked with Everett if he did not bring something significant to the table.
In the meantime, Nicole leaned back against her seat and furrowed her brows, seemingly contemplating something.
"What are you thinking?" Jared asked in a soft voice.
