Chapter 429 A Heart Divided

"Have you told anyone else besides me?" Oscar asked, panic flashing in his eyes as he stepped forward, gripping Kelly's wrist tightly.

Fear was evident in his gaze.

Kelly hesitated for a moment. "Me, the Hardison brothers and Charles. Aside from them, no one else.

Oscar let out a breath, loosening his grip on Kelly's wrist. He raised a hand to his forehead apologetically. "Kelly, no matter the truth, I will never cover for anyone. But you should understand the gravity of this matter without me having to spell it out. The infamous kidnapping case involved a wealthy businessman years ago, smuggling, human trafficking, and organ trading. The entire Seaville dark web was connected to the global dark web, all converging into a single point."

The implications were clear.

They were about to touch a massive, boundless web of crime.

One misstep, and they would be beyond redemption.

They might not even leave behind a complete corpse.

"If my father was really involved, then his acting skills are terrifying," Oscar murmured, his voice weak.

No matter how he tried, he couldn't fathom the idea that Patrick was the mastermind behind the nation's largest dark web syndicate.

It was impossible.

How could Patrick be involved?

"Be careful," Kelly warned, concern evident in her eyes.

Oscar, eyes red-rimmed, nodded. "I have nothing to fear. The only person I can't let go of is Melody."

Kelly's eyes reddened as well, understanding what he meant.

"Don't tell her yet. Right now, the less she knows, the safer she will be," Oscar pleaded, his voice hoarse.

Kelly nodded.

Ignorance was the best protection.

She wouldn't drag Melody into this deep, dangerous water.
