Reborn In a Murderer’s Embrace

Chapter 481

Naomi looked at me, her laughter filling the air. "The organization is a vastwork, spanning across every country with different individuals in charge of various projects and subjects."

"The one at the top, it could be me, or it could be you. Without the proper credentials, you can't even dream of contacting him directly. In the entirety of Harbor City... only a handful have ever met him. Ethan, once the most powerful tycoon in Harbor City, knew who he was... Unfortunately, Ethan is no longer with us."

It was clear from Naomi's words that Ethan was the only person in Harbor City who had ever met the organization's leader. And now, Ethan was dead.

Aside from Ethan, no one else was deemed worthy to meet the head honcho.

"How powerful do you have to be... to sit down with him, to negotiate face to face?" I asked, driven by curiosity.

"To become an asset, to dominate the Harbor City business scene, to have the power to turn the market on its head... that's when he'll come to you," Naomi leaned back on the couch, a smirk playing on her lips once more. "Some suspect that the person behind the organization is none other than the enigmatic CEO of the All-Stars Consortium... Either the mastermind behind the organization or the one most likely to meet its leader..."

Right, I had heard that too. The consortium wouldn't let wealth and control fall into the hands of someone they couldn't manage, so the organization's leader must be one of their own.

Colin and I speculated about many people... but came up with nothing concrete.

No wonder the organization's leader was so elusive.

Naomi was right; it could be you, it could be me, it could even be any seemingly insignificant person around us.

"To slay the dragon, you first have to become the dragon... Too bad, Foebe," Naomi's laughter was laced with implication, and just as she finished speaking, someone behind me plunged a syringe into my arm.

The drug coursed through my body, blurring my consciousness.
