Chapter 950: On the right side

"Let's give them a good show they'll enjoy, not knowing that it's them we're watching."

Charles, Stephen, and Haines looked at each other, determination swirling in their eyes. Even though Stephen hadn't gotten along with the other two all these years, they were still family. Despite their differences, the Bennet Family was their common ground.

They had to protect it as the men of their houses.

"But the pill..." Stephen broke his silence after a while. "... you're not going to ask me to use the one they gave me, right?"

Although he no longer had possession of those deadly pills, Stephen still had to ask. After all, he still needed more information other than just acting like his deadbeat father.

"About that..." Haines trailed off and snapped his eyes to the mobile phone on the table. "... Penny?"

"Penny?" Stephen furrowed his brows, his eyes falling on the phone. "She's listening?"

All this time, Stephen thought Atlas was the only one on the line. After all, Atlas had been the only person he had heard speak from the start. His face twitched, and he thought of the "map" of how this information in the family had traveled.

At least Charles and Haines hadn't told their neighbors but kept the information within the family.

"I'm going to replace the pills." After a few seconds, Penny's alluring voice came through. "When and how is not something Uncle Stephen has to worry about. It'll be in the same bottle. Don't worry. The second you used it, it's not the same pill anymore."

Haines nodded in satisfaction, casting his eyes at Charles. The latter nodded as well, snapping his eyes to the phone.

"What do you think of the plan, Penny?" asked Charles because, as a father, he knew this plan would affect his children just as much as it would affect them.
