Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1625

On the other side of the phone, Julian put down the receiver, then raised his hands high and said, "I have no intention of resisting, don't scare my employees."

Booker wanted to step forward to explain but was stopped by Julian's gaze.

The Cloude family was implicated in a poisoning incident, which had blown up so much that almost half of Duskhaven's citizens suffered.

Everyone at Cloude Corporation was to be taken to the police station for questioning, including Booker.

As the CEO of the Cloude family, he was naturally subjected to intense interrogation.

That was an unchangeable fact.

Sophie, hearing the dial tone on the other end of the phone, knew Julian had been taken away by the Duskhaven police.

"Damn it! The Silent Shadows really are ruthless!"

Adler frowned, their pincer attack had come as a surprise, no wonder there had been no movement lately; they had targeted their business partners.

"The Silent Shadows are clever. They know they can't confront our four major families directly, so they target our business partners first, making them realize that partnering with us brings no good end," Sophie said coldly. "If we let this continue, the downfall of our four major families is only a matter of time."

"What do we do then? Are we supposed to just sit here and watch as our business partners and friends are picked off by The Silent Shadows, taken away?"

Jenna stomped her foot in anger at this moment.

"The Silent Shadows are just trying to intimidate us. They want us to know that opposing them won't end well. What The Silent Shadows want is our complete submission. The only thing we can do now is to take the initiative. We need to strike first."

"Take the initiative? What do you mean?"

"The leader of The Silent Shadows has been hiding. So, I'll take the initiative to invite him to meet us."

Adler was dumbfounded: "Sophie, have you lost your mind? This is so dangerous. What if they catch all of us in one fell swoop?"
