Chapter 42

"Not necessarily. His face got mutilated. It could be anyone."

"That's right. Felix has been on the run for so long. He wouldn’t be so easily killed... Request that our team cleans up the mess. We still have a long road ahead of us."

"Yes, Ms. Madeline."

As Madeline sat inside, Albert was about to start the car, but Madeline stopped him.

"Hide. Someone is coming."

Several cars pulled up in front of the villa as soon as Madeline finished speaking.

She carefully adjusted the seat's angle, peered out the window at the people, and at once picked out the most notable man in the crowd.

Noah!

Why is he here?

Fortunately, Madeline asked Albert to park the car in the parking space behind the green belt before they entered the villa; otherwise, they would have been found by now.

It would be difficult to explain their presence if they happened to run into them.

"Ms. Madeline, is that Mr. Quincy? Is it possible that he is also looking into the old man's death?"

"Perhaps," Madeline replied somewhat perfunctorily.

She was unable to comprehend how Noah operated.

Is he also looking into it?

Noah seemed to have realized that the person inside was dead and soon left with his men.

Madeline and Albert waited for a while before driving away.

Unsurprisingly, they were being followed as soon as they drove out of the villa area.
