Too bad, I know every move you’re going to make. You’re never going to succeed in escaping from me. Due to his merciless nature, Mr. Knight would usually leave no chance for his enemy to stage a comeback. Therefore, now that the situation had taken an unexpected turn, he swore to himself that he would eliminate all possibilities for another unforeseen circumstance to happen.

For that, he reached for his phone and dialed a number. “I want you to dispatch all the men you can get to Magnificent Hotel. Then, have them secure every exit of the building and make sure not even a fly can sneak past those guys.”

Since it was 2.00AM at that time, there were not many security guards on duty in the hotel at that hour. Therefore, Ethan reckoned it was necessary for him to get more men on standby. Well, you may be good at creating a distraction, but I’m not going to let you fool me, which is why I’m getting more men ready.

“What’s wrong, Boss?” Derek Jenkins instantly became awake when he heard those orders. Since Ethan rarely rallied up so many people, he believed his boss must have faced something so pressing that he had to take desperate measures. “Are you after someone?”

“A lady.” Ethan spoke like he usually did without anything hardly wrong with his tone. However, Derek was expecting Ethan to tell him who the lady was so that he could bring his boss the right person.

“A lady?” Derek repeated in a high-pitched voice shortly before he asked another question in excitement. “Boss, who is this lady you’re after? Is she your lover or something?” Despite his thrill, he was still sensible enough to notice something strange with Ethan’s tone.

However, Ethan didn’t answer Derek’s question as he went ahead and directly hung up the call. Therefore, Derek had no other information about the person whom he was after, except the fact that it was a lady.

Confused and puzzled, he also felt desperate to know the mysterious lady, and he couldn’t help but grumble about Ethan’s refusal to tell him more. Nevertheless, he quickly put it behind him, knowing he could find it out himself even if Ethan did not tell him. After all, he didn’t think he would stumble upon another chance like that.

“Mr. Knight, my men came back to me with news that the security footage in the hotel had been erased when they checked them out earlier.” Caleb sent his men to look into the security footage as instructed by Ethan, but despite his immediate action, he was still one step behind the mysterious culprit.

After hearing his subordinate, Ethan was stunned, finding it hard to believe Alice was able to erase the security footage during her escape even though she had only left his room less than two minutes ago.

“Is Mr. Rowland’s costume party over?” Ethan took a look at his watch, realizing his tracker’s location was currently on the third floor, which was exactly where Keith’s costume party was being held.

“Nope, I don’t think so,” Liam answered almost instantly, although he had no idea why Ethan asked that question.

Ethan replied with an affirmative hum, catching on to Alice’s intention at that moment. I know what she’s going to do now. She wants to get into the costume party. That seems like a
