Unbeknownst to her. Schastian, his assistant, and the others had been tirelessly searching the area. They just had not found the entrance to the underground casino yet.

It was a shock for them to see Madelyn appear unscathed once again.

Malcolm’s gaze was filled with complexity. Who exactly Mrs. Lockhart? He could not help but wonder..

The Oceanic Empire is notorious for its ruthless demeanor, even in matters of life and death. The mere mention of their name sends chills down the spines of major underworld groups worldwide. Who wouldn’t shudder at the whisper of their infamous reputation? Mrs. Lockhart, who was just an uivanted heiress months ago, has repeatedly found herself in their clutches. Yet, time and again, she has managed to escape unscathed. How on earth did she do that? I bet no one will believe that Mrs. Lockhart has no connections whatsoever with the Oceanic Empire, huh?
