Tapping on his forehead, Frederick was a little puzzled, "She is no longer the Danica I knew! Right now, I have no idea what her intentions are."

Analyzing her intentions logically, her target must either be his grandmother or Alicia. These two women were his greatest Achilles'heel, but why did she speak with such certainty yet had never taken any actual action?

"Frederick, aren't you being a little too suspicious? She is now all by herself, and it's already dusk. Would she still spend so much effort doing all that? At the moment, Kieran is still lying half dead in the hospital whereas the Randolph family is struggling to make ends meet. They are holding on for dear life as we speak. I've learned from the hospital that her illness is troublesome. It's just the cancer; other parts of her body aren't looking too great. Obviously, her days are limited!

Being alive and dead were both tortourous.

When he thought of something, Chet parted his lips to speak.

"No offense, but disregarding her health condition, financially speaking, she can't even afford a weapon. At this rate, it would probably not matter much even if she thumped with her full strength. But we have already arranged people to be on their guard against her, just in case! Nothing weird has been found yet!"

Despite this, Frederick still seemed to be disturbed by Danica's ambiguous threats. He kept feeling as if an impending doom awaited.

"Chet, would I be crossing the line if I took action against someone who's about to die?"

Life was precious to everyone! Although the rules of survival in society were cruel, no one wanted to build their success on dead bodies unless it was absolutely necessary.

In an instant, Chet also stopped to think, "Does he intend to kill Danica?"

Chet fell silent while Frederick also hesitated for a moment, "Forget it, I'll reconsider it! Make sure your underlings keep a close eye on her, don't make any careless mistakes..."

Perhaps, he should think of a more appropriate way to go about things!

After ending the call, Frederick tossed and turned in bed for a long time that night. He finally came up with the perfect idea the next day that would be the best of both worlds. He immediately rang up Carson immediately early in the morning. "Carson, I need your help with..."

Why hadn't he thought about this earlier? Since he couldn't force her to stay out of this, perhaps the answer was in using soft, passive approaches. Since she wanted to make a fuss, he would just send her and her half-dead father to an isolated island to struggle on their own! Instead of risking his own life for a villain like her, it would be better to trap her on a remote island for half a year, letting her turn into ashes herself.
