Chapter 94

"Y-Y-You…" Others might not know what this person's presence here entailed, but Mateo knew all too clearly.

Ten years ago, a special organization known as the Vermillion Alliance emerged in Cechirus out of nowhere. All the members of the alliance had a special marking on their bodies, and they would wear a red spider mask with identical printing on their chests. These people were elusive and scattered all across Cechirus. Not only were they the greatest intelligence unit, but they were also the strongest force in the underworld.

The Ramons had always threaded the fine line between good and evil, thus making them a regular with the Vermillion Alliance.

However, the alliance never ever involved itself with mundane family issues. So it was inevitable that Mateo would overthink when a member had shown themselves in the Ramon Residence.

"Mateo Ramon, Grandmaster has ordered me to retrieve a man from you." It was a woman who stood in the middle of the living room. Her voice was bleak, and her gaze at Mateo was one of looking at a corpse.

"W-W-What man?" Mateo stammered but knew precisely what she meant. However, he couldn't figure out when Aberama became so close with the Vermillion Alliance.

"Huh, do you really not know who we want? Hand him over now. I still have other things to deal with. I don't have time to play games with you," said the woman rudely as she glanced at Mateo with impatience.

The man had wanted to play dumb to brush it off, but now he could only dismiss the idea with indignation, for he dared not cross the Vermillion Alliance.

With that, he turned to the basement and dragged a moribund Aberama up in two shakes, chucking the young man to the floor.

Upon seeing Aberama's condition, the woman flew into a rage. She grabbed the whiplash that was fastened against her waist and whipped it against Mateo.

"You swine!" she cussed and whipped the man a few dozen times before finally picking Aberama up.

Aberama was horribly mutilated, a gruesome sight to behold. To make things worse, his wounds were never treated, so many parts of his body were festered and covered in pus.

Carmine knew fully well what Aberama meant to Katherine, so she dared not waste any time and left Ramon Residence right after retrieving Aberama.
