Wanda closed her eyes in despair.
She wondered why Carlisle wasn’t grasping the situation when he was usually so bright. She hadn’t
spoken, signaling it wasn’t a good time to talk. Why didn’t he just hang up?
Unbeknownst to her, Carlisle’s concern had skyrocketed after her brief call, prompting his persistent attempts to reach her.
Carlisle felt relieved at the sound of Zachary’s voice.
If Zachary could get to Wanda’s phone, it meant they were still safe.
However, the threatening tone in Zachary’s voice didn’t sit well with him.
“Yes, it’s me. So what?”
Carlisle decided not to back down this time, facing Zachary’s intimidation head–on.
Zachary responded coolly, “Do I need to call your parents to remind you to behave?”
The implication was clear–he would trouble Carlisle’s parents instead of him.
“I don’t want to argue with you right now. I’m trying to warn you that Jalen might be planning something
against you.”
Carlisle didn’t bother dealing with Zachary’s childish behavior. He simply wanted to deliver his warning.
Zachary sneered.
“Do you think I’m that easy to fool?”
Carlisle’s tone was casual.
“Don’t flatter yourself. I wasn’t warning you. I was warning my classmate, Wanda.”
With that, Carlisle abruptly hung up the call.
He took a deep breath, then immediately dialed Benjamin’s number.
Benjamin had just returned to the club when he received Carlisle’s call.
“Hello, Carlisle.” NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
“I need all the information on Jalen within ten minutes!” said Carlisle.
On the hill behind Trodie Town, Zachary read Carlisle’s message on Wanda’s phone. His eyebrows furrowed in concern.
He questioned if Carlisle would lie to Wanda about something like this.

If what Carlisle said was true, then it had to be Yuriel orchestrating this.
With that thought, Zachary ran to the hilltop and looked toward the road outside the village. Although it was too far to see the people clearly, he could make out that they were all young men.
Most of the young people from the village were working elsewhere, leaving behind only the elderly and children. Even if some had returned for a visit, there wouldn’t be that many of them.
Yet, he saw groups of young men on the road, along with vans and sedans.
Moving to another vantage point, Zachary spotted figures on distant hills. Were they surrounded?
Zachary was a rising star in the business world. Although he spent most of his time gaming, he never
neglected his business responsibilities.
At that moment, he managed to stay relatively calm.
He quickly recalled Carlisle’s warning about Jalen planning to take action against them.
“Wanda, give me your phone,” Zachary said as he walked toward her.
Seeing the solemn expression on Zachary’s face, Wanda handed him the phone cautiously, asking, “Zac, is someone really after us?”
Zachary remained silent as he dialed the number from the recent call history.
Carlisle’s phone was in his hand. He immediately answered it when it rang.
“Where did you hear this information? Have you called the police?”
Zachary tried to sound calm to hide that he was highly anxious.
He didn’t want Carlisle to sense his panic.
“I’ve already reported it to the police. They’re on their way. Here’s my advice–leave the village with your uncle. They likely won’t dare to touch him.”
“You know Uncle Sebastian as well?” Zachary glanced at Wanda as he spoke.
