Chapter 296

With the entire Tarragon's forces under Micah's control, he could discover Shannon's whereabouts through her.

“Veikko, what's up? Did something happen to Shannon?”

“No.” A clear word was heard from the phone. “The Saviors received a mission a while ago. They paid a considerable sum of money for us to assassinate two people.”

Bailey was surprised.

Usually, Veikko wouldn't inform me of such matters. He has the right to make his own decision within the Saviors unless the assassination is somehow related to me.

“Does the employer have something to do with me?”

“On the contrary, it's the targets of our assassination.”

Bailey was stunned for a moment.

The assassination targets?

“Who did they want you to kill?”

“Veronique and her son.”

Bailey narrowed her eyes. “Are you sure? Am I hearing you correctly?”

“I'm positive. The employer contacted me and wanted me to do the deed. The targets were indeed Ms. Veronique and Zephyr.”

“Ha.” Bailey smirked. “This is getting interesting. Vero and Zephyr are doctors hired by the Saviors. It's weird that they wanted us to assassinate them. So tell me, who's the employer?”

Veikko replied solemnly, “I've instructed someone to find out. The employer is the bodyguard of Ms. Scarlett Fletcher from the Fletcher family.”

Bailey squeezed the phone in her hand, and her eyes turned cold.
