Chapter 729:

The man who’d rivaled him for years would finally be gone.

Corbett almost wanted to laugh.

But just as they stepped through the door, Peyton suddenly collapsed. Corbett frowned, only to feel a sharp blow to the back of his head before everything went black.

Milly glanced at the two men lying on the floor and dragged them into a nearby room.

Corbett really was a lost cause.

Her eyes narrowed with a deep, contemplative look.

As for Peyton, he had killed countless people. So, Milly had no hesitation, dragging them both to a nearby forest. This wasn’t just any forest—it was a place of danger, teeming with wild predators, a death trap where few who entered ever came out. The organization often used this place for those who disobeyed. Hardly one in ten ever survived.

As Milly turned back, she noticed a figure standing by a tree in the distance.

She said nothing and continued walking, but in an instant, the person was beside her.

“Peyton is the third-in-command of our organization; you shouldn’t have done that to him!” The man’s voice was low, tinged with frustration.

Milly’s expression remained cold. “If I hadn’t done that, they would have killed Howard.”

The man fell silent.

Milly indeed had no other options.

As they walked, Milly suddenly whispered, “Don’t come back with me.”

Before the man could even ask why, Milly had already vanished into the shadows.

When she returned to the base, she spotted a man at the entrance, his face covered in heavy makeup.

It was the second-in-command, ranked among the top three assassins—known as Magician.

His face was never the same twice, but Milly recognized him instantly. She knew him all too well. “Come with me,” Magician commanded.

Milly followed him into a cell.

Magician was clearly pleased with her compliance. “I like obedient people. Those who can’t face the consequences always end up draining my energy.”

Milly lowered her lashes, her face unreadable.

“Tell me, why did you do it?” Magician asked, pulling out a chair and sitting down, his gaze locked on Milly.

She remained still, showing no intention of escaping. She knew getting those two out of the organization would undoubtedly draw much attention.

“Because they did something offensive to me,” Milly said flatly.

Magician raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Oh? And what exactly did they do?”

“They made unwanted advances,” Milly replied.

Magician was taken aback.
