Chapter 781: Miss Reed, Our Dungeon Awaits You

Carl raised an eyebrow. Facing a beautiful woman, his tone softened noticeably. "You certainly speak better than your husband. But my decision is made. Mr. Bailey, you'd better start preparing." "You needn't worry. My goal isn't the formula. To be honest, I have a personal grudge against Tina. This time, I'm here for her!"

Kelly swayed her hips as she entered the room. "Dad, just agree already. Mr. Langdon is only trying to help us. After all, Tina has the support of the Farrell family. Bringing more people along can't hurt, can it?"

She placed a plate of snacks on Carl's desk, her gaze coy and shy. "Mr. Langdon, I made these pastries just for you. They go perfectly with tea. Please, have a taste."

Carl's eyes lingered on Kelly's face for a brief moment. Her calculating and seductive demeanor was plain to see.

With a faint smirk, Carl glanced meaningfully at Victor, who was frowning. He picked up a piece of pastry and took a bite. "Not bad. Mr. Bailey, your wife is very understanding, and your daughter is quite skilled. You're truly blessed." Victor forced a stiff smile. "You flatter us. If you like them, feel free to have more."

His gloomy gaze swept over Kelly and her mother before he suppressed his anger and spoke, "Since you're determined to go, I'll prepare more people. Once Tina is caught, she's yours to deal with!"

In the outskirts, far from the city.

Though the meeting was arranged for two days later, they were mindful of an impending court session.

The day after Ella Bailey retrieved the ashes, Tina contacted Victor to confirm the time.

The location was an abandoned factory, isolated in the woods.

Tina stood inside, clad in black leather, her hair tied high in a ponytail. She looked like the perfect bodyguard, standing by Elsa's side.

Behind her stood ten young men, all dressed in black hoodies.

Their icy, intimidating auras made Carl hesitate for a moment as he entered with his men. He quickly regained his composure, but his face darkened, and his gaze locked onto Tina with venomous intensity. Tina ignored him, her gaze sliding past Carl to land on Victor behind him. Her clear eyes turned cold. "Mr. Bailey, did you bring what I asked for?"

Victor's expression was stern. "That's my question for you, Miss Reed. Where's the formula I want?"

Tina took a wooden box from Elsa's hands and gently shook it. The sound immediately drew Victor and his men's attention.

Tina's lips curved into a faint smile. Seeing their wolfish hunger, her expression remained calm and indifferent. "Where's what I asked for?"
