Babette went on, “The truth is, my original family has a longstanding grudge against the Blacks. We always found their sudden rise suspicious. We sent investigators, even assassins, to dig into their affairs—but none of them ever came back. That’s when we learned the Black family had a large number of dedicated warriors. Yet, at the time of their near bankruptcy, if they really had those warriors, they wouldn’t have been struggling. We suspect some unknown force provided them with both the money and the warriors.”

Madisyn and Andrew shared a look, both arriving at the same unspoken conclusion.

If someone had the power to casually supply that much money and protection, it was likely a force as formidable as a nation…

Madisyn asked, “You haven’t stopped looking into the Black family, have you? After all these years, haven’t you figured out who helped them back then?”

“No, we still don’t know. But we did discover that the money didn’t come to the Blacks without a price. Every now and then, a young man or woman from their family would vanish. Over the last twenty years, more than a hundred people have disappeared. I suspect these people have been handed over to their mysterious benefactor. They always claim these people died from illness or accidents. They once had a child prodigy who disappeared before she turned twenty—it caused quite a stir. I believe whoever is behind them…”

“Specifically, they wanted her. I’ve always believed talent is the true strength of a family, and the Black family likely doesn’t want their children to be sacrificed. They’ve probably been trying to escape the control of whoever’s pulling the strings.”

Madisyn’s expression darkened. It was almost unbelievable that, in this day and age, such horrors were still happening. “I have my suspicions. Keep watching them, and let me know the moment you find anything,” Madisyn said.

After she hung up, the air in the car felt heavier than before.

According to Babette, the power behind the Black family was immense, and if they meddled in the upcoming national election, who knew what chaos might follow?

Andrew spoke in a hushed tone, “I have a feeling that another country is using the Black family to seize control.”

“The ties between the Black family and Owen run deep. If Owen actually ascends to the throne, the Blacks could reap massive rewards—maybe even run the country through him,” Madisyn mused.

She sighed, feeling like they were caught in a web of intrigue far more complicated than they’d ever imagined.

Every time they tore through one layer, an even bigger one seemed to appear, ensnaring them further.

When they returned to the hotel, the comforting aroma of food greeted them. Howard emerged from the kitchen carrying dishes, a wide grin on his face. “You’re back! I’ve made dinner. Let’s eat together.”

Milly was setting the table, her gaze softening as she looked at them.
