Chapter 937: It Was Really Her

Tina immediately thought of one person: Claudia.

The fox had finally revealed its tail.

Jared seemed to have guessed it too. He stepped forward to hold Tina's hand. "They've already made a move. From here, all we need to do is make ours, and they'll show their hand." Tina's eyes narrowed.

She couldn't be certain about many things, but one thing was clear-anyone bold enough to harm her wouldn't meet a good end.

Jayden approached with his team to report. "Young Mistress, we chased them halfway but lost them in the southern district. However, we managed to intercept a batch of their goods, which we've now secured at..." "How many were injured?" Tina interrupted.

Jayden froze, then lowered his head. "Not serious. Only minor injuries."

Tina strode forward, grabbing Jayden's wrist firmly to check his pulse. Her brows furrowed. "An injured heart meridian, and you call that minor?" Without another word, she pulled out a half-empty bottle of healing pills from her pocket. "Distribute these. Don't say I mistreat my subordinates." Jayden stared at the bottle in stunned silence.

As Tina and Jared headed further inside, Hayden sauntered over and patted Jayden on the shoulder. "Tsk tsk, Jayden, you should count yourself lucky. You know how rare Serena's healing pills are, don't you? She just handed over half a bottle. Even my brothers haven't received this kind of treatment."

From ahead, Tina's voice rang out. "Hayden, stop dawdling and catch up."

Hayden's expression shifted instantly. "Coming! Serena, wait for me..."

Inside the room, a hole had been dug in the middle of the floor, revealing an underground lab.

What kind of research was being conducted here? Tina would have to see for herself.

Jayden handed her a gas mask, his face no longer as pale as before. "Young Mistress, we can't be sure whether the materials left here were deliberately planted as a trap. It could be risky. Please wear this before you go down." Tina took the mask and put it on.

Claudia had managed to hide herself so well. Her mind was undoubtedly more meticulous than most.

What lay here might not be of much importance, but to Tina, it could be a crucial clue to unraveling Claudia's secrets.

Jared noticed Tina's determination and extended his hand for a gas mask as well. "Bring two more. I'll go down with Tina to take a look."

Hearing this, Hayden immediately felt a chill. "Wait a second, one of those masks isn't for me, is it?"
