Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Retlin knew very well that a person who betrayed his former master would never be put in an important position by his current master.
In other words, Corwin Adelo had extended his hand to the Shwell family to show off in front of that group of people.
“According to what you’re saying, Corwin Adelo was just someone who wanted to show off in front of them, someone who couldn’t be put in an important position?” Retlin asked Caroline expressionlessly.
He was no longer as flustered as before. He already knew what Caroline wanted.
She just wanted to cooperate with the Shwell family.
There was no problem with cooperation, but the premise of cooperation was a win-win situation.
Could the Shwell family, together with Luo Ling Pritz and the group of lunatics behind her, fight against that group of people?
The answer was… Definitely.
The risk might be higher.
However, risks and opportunities coexisted.
He also knew that the future of the Shwell family would not be peaceful.
Because even if he stopped after killing Corwin Adelo, those people would think that he was already on Luo Ling Pritz’s side, provoking them.
Although they weren’t as powerful as the Shwell family, they wouldn’t let the Shwell family off easily for the sake of their reputation.
He didn’t want to guard against these things day and night. It would be very tiring to live like that.
He didn’t regret killing Corwin Adelo, because this person had touched his most beloved grandson, and he would never let him go.
Killing Corwin was just the beginning.
“Miss Caroline, let me think about it. Or you should tell me what our chances of winning are, ” Retlin said.
Caroline smiled when she heard Reitlin say, ‘what our chances of winning are’.
Retlin’s words were equivalent to putting them on the same line.
Or rather, Retlin was considering the possibility of forming an alliance with her. As long as she brought out the benefits of working with the Shwell family, Retlin would stand firmly on her side.
Caroline smiled.
“Mr. Retlin, I think we can talk inside.” Caroline made an inviting gesture. Retlin glanced at the bodyguards behind him and followed Caroline to the empty space beside her without hesitation.
Caroline then took out a remote control with a red button on it.
Retlin wasn’t worried about this at all. He didn’t think that Caroline had gone through so much trouble to invite him here just to blow him up.
Caroline’s next move confirmed Retlin’s guess.
Because when the remote control button was pressed, the entire ground suddenly shook.
Although Retlin was a little flustered, he saw that Caroline was still calm and collected. He suppressed his pounding heart.
When the ground stopped shaking, the scenery in front of him changed greatly.
Retlin, who was in a state of panic and worry, had just regained his senses when he realized that his surroundings were not as bright as before. It seemed to have become much darker.
“Miss Caroline, although I trust you, can you tell me where we are going?” Retlin could not help but ask.
He wasn’t afraid that Caroline would kill him, but that the darkness around him made him feel a little uncomfortable.
“Mr. Retlin, please rest assured that we are in a safe place.” As Caroline’s voice rang out, the surrounding lights lit up.
At this moment, Retlin could see the scene in front of him. It was a very large room, but this room seemed a little different. It was surrounded by walls, and only the place where they had just come down had a glass door that covered the elevator.
Retlin didn’t continue to ask Caroline what this place was, because it would only make him look cowardly.
“What does Miss Caroline want to talk to me about? Coming to such a secluded place, they must be talking about something important.” Retlin chuckled as he looked at Caroline, who was standing beside Edwin.
The two of them were quite eye-catching when they stood together, and they looked a little more comfortable.
“Mr. Retlin, my request is very simple. I will pay you this price for working with you.” Caroline took out a ring and a piece of paper.
This piece of paper was about the same size as the newspaper he usually read. Retlin frowned and took the newspaper. He opened it and smiled..
