“C-counterattack?” The informant stammered.

After straightening his back, Victor shifted Ava’s picture towards him. “There’s no point in attacking someone who is on the verge of death. So, no need to mince words on this one. Get rid of her. Don’t worry about her dying mother.”

The informant blinked. “So, when should I begin, Sir?”

“Wait a few days. After that, start by taking care of this and this.”
