Hearing that, Cleo frowned and thought, ‘This Leo isn’t ambitious at all.’
However, for the sake of the Lovelace family, Cleo forced a smile and said, “Lord Leo, that is for the future. Right now, we should join forces against Philip Clarke, right?”
Leo frowned, looked at Cleo, and said, “What do you suggest? As you should know, if I lose this opportunity, all dealings between us will go up in smoke. Therefore, I hope that you can represent the Lovelace family and try your best to help me.”
Cleo said, “But of course, The Lovelace family will always stand on your side.”
She added, “This matter is actually very simple. We just need to issue the same bounty mission. As for the Clarke family, I’ll think of ways to delay them.”
Leo raised his brow and said, “If we do that, won’t that boost the power and prestige of the Underground Bounty Society instead?”
Cleo smiled and said, “You’ve misunderstood, Lord Leo. At this rate, all the bounty hunters of the society will be out on the missions. The entire place will be an empty city. When the time comes, you can catch them by surprise and dispatch a troop of elite guards to take down the headquarters of the Underground Bounty Society easily.”
Hearing this, Leo smiled and said, “Wonderful! Is this the so-called strategy of luring the enemy away from their stronghold?”
Cleo smiled and said, “What do you think, Lord Leo?”
Leo thought about it, clapped his hands, and said, “Very well, I agree!”
After saying that, he waved at the guards and said, “Pass my order down immediately. Notify the Underground Bounty Society to issue the same bounty mission against Amos!”
