Chapter 136
Juliana did say a lot about Cecilia to him, but not all of it was
true.
The fake part was mainly Cecilia’s attitude toward the Yancey family.
For example, Cecilia clearly hated the Yancey family, but she portrayed her as longing for family affection.
She had said this to use the mastermind to go against the Yancey family!
He didn’t believe all Juliana had said.
He came when Cecilia participated in the racing competition.
Racing Master’s car wasn’t something just anyone could use.
When the car arrived in Quilton from Jacaster, he guessed that Cecilia was “8374.”
He had been secretly observing her, gaining some understanding of her.
She didn’t care about the Yancey family at all!
The person she cared about was Christopher.
However, Christopher was the richest man in Quilton, with abundant resources and influence. He wasn’t someone he could easily mess with.
In the end, he could only target Yvette from the Yates family, who had a good relationship with Cecilia.
Thinking of this, he immediately investigated Yvette’s. whereabouts.
Whether it worked or not, it was always right to be prepared.
When he searched for the two words “Yvette Yates,” Christopher, at Emerald Mansion, immediately traced his network IP address.

As Yvette was under special protection, he would receive notifications whenever someone looked into her.
However, Juliana’s killer wasn’t unprepared.
His hacking skills weren’t good, but the firewall on his computer was top–notch.
When traced, the computer immediately sounded an alarm and automatically cut off the network.
When he looked at the flashing red warning sign on the screen, his back broke out in a cold sweat.
When he killed Juliana, he knew he was exposed.
However, he didn’t expect Cecilia to quickly figure out that he might target Yvette and then wait for him in the dark!
If he hadn’t installed a strong firewall, his address would have already been exposed.
But just in case, he immediately packed up his things and left.
There was more than one place for him to stay.
The next one was near Quilton University.
Quilton University had many students, and many residential houses nearby had been converted into rental housing for young couples.
He had rented a house with a fake student ID.
When he arrived at the rental house, he made a phone call to explain his situation.
After speaking, he respectfully said, “Sir, please give instructions.”
A slightly deep voice came from the receiver. “Jason, if you can’t bring her to me, you won’t have to live.”
“Yes, sir, but I need more men,” replied Jason Moore, Juliana’s killer.
“Make a plan first, then we can talk about the manpower. If you

fail again, I’ll personally deal with you!”
The voice, laden with killing intent, entered Jason’s ears, making his whole body tense.
“Don’t worry, sir. I won’t let you down this time.
“Ten days, is that enough?”
Jason’s heart skipped a beat, but he didn’t dare buy himself more time.
“Yes!”
He gave him life, and even if he were to die now, he would not complain.
“I’m waiting for your news.”
After that, the phone was hung up.
Jason raised his hand and wiped his forehead, indeed covered in sweat.
He made another phone call and said, “Keep an eye on the Yates residence, especially Yvette. Don’t search for information, or you will be tracked.”
The organization sent a small team to Quilton. He was the captain, the main attacker leading the visible attack, while others served as hidden support in the shadows.
After ending the call, Jason got up and stood by the window. He looked in the direction of Cecilia’s apartment with a
murderous look in his eyes.
He thought, “The mistake made three years ago will never happen again!”
At this moment, Cecilia was on her way back to Emerald Mansion.
She looked at the news that the Yancey family was going to sell their property and smiled mockingly.
Although it was much cheaper than the market price, and

whoever bought it would be considered a gain, no one dared to buy it after Christopher had spoken.
That was why the price soon fell by another ten points.
Yates Corporation had issued an ultimatum, requiring the Yancey family to pay the penalty by noon tomorrow. Otherwise, they would file a lawsuit.
Other investors followed suit one after another.
The Yancey family was now in a dilemma. Everyone was extremely anxious.
Because in a short time, they won’t be able to come up with more than 2 billion dollars.
When Sophia was considering kicking Jeremiah and Jayden out of the family, Cecilia called.
She was in a fit of anger and hung up directly.
Soon, she received a text message from Cecilia.
[If you don’t want to go bankrupt and end up in auction, then answer the phone.]
As soon as Sophia finished reading the message, Cecilia called again.
Sophia didn’t want to be threatened, yet she had no choice but to answer the phone.
When the phone was answered, Cecilia’s lazy voice came over. “I have 1 billion dollars in my hand.”
As soon as Sophia heard this, she exploded in anger immediately.
“You’ve forced us into a corner, yet you shamelessly sell the herb plantation Jon gave you for money. How dare you?”
If Cecilia hadn’t deliberately shown off in front of her, she wouldn’t have said such a nasty thing.
Cecilia was no longer the humble and silent daughter who

would endure scolding without a word.
