A Replacement Bride

The uproar was pretty loud, indicating a large number of people outside.

Katherine was immediately alerted, and her face became solemn as she approached the window. When she looked down, she saw several Jeeps had surrounded Silver Gardens from all directions.

Meanwhile, Carmine, who had also heard the commotion, reacted immediately and led her subordinates outside. Then, they got into a protective stance to protect the villa behind them.

Katherine kept a stony face as she observed the events below from the second floor and made a few educated guesses. As she had anticipated, she saw several familiar faces as the people in the Jeep exited the vehicle in unison. These were the same people Emmanuel had brought with him the last time! At that moment, her gaze became a little harsh as she pursed her lips and watched every move the people below made.

After alighting from the vehicle, these people made a beeline for the entrance and rushed in without hesitation. On the other hand, Carmine's subordinates weren't easy to deal with either and immediately began fighting the intruders.

Katherine thought there wouldn't be any problems at first, but her face turned ghastly when she saw how lopsided the situation was. Even though they were the same people who had come before, their combat skills had greatly improved! Also, she could see that those people were using the same secret technique as the Vermillion Alliance!

Nevertheless, Carmine's subordinates hadn't expected this either. Their enemy immediately caught their weaknesses and attacked them harshly, defeating Carmine's subordinates within a few minutes. This was a situation the Vermillion Alliance had never experienced before!

When Katherine noticed the situation, she gritted her teeth and was about to head downstairs.

"Mom." Noah suddenly called her at that moment, causing her to stop moving. The little girl couldn't see what was happening downstairs and could only hear the commotion, but she felt something wasn't right. Her young and pale face was immediately filled with worry. "Did something happen to Carmine and the others downstairs? Why is it so noisy?"

Katherine averted her eyes and squatted down to hug her. "Noah, I need to head downstairs. It's dangerous downstairs, so you must not leave this room. No matter what movement you hear outside, do not leave
