Chapter 40 Came Looking For Her Himself

After reading the information, Alan’s and Martin’s faces could no longer be described as pale. It was worse. Their faces were pale with humiliation and extreme shame.

They saw the true colors of Bridget and understood that she was making use of them.

Being used by a woman with ulterior motives was their shame, their biggest dereliction of duty, and the biggest stain of their career.

“You both have let me down,” Draxton said slowly in his deep voice.

He was not angry, and he did not scold them. But his calm and disappointed tone scared them. They knew they were doomed.

At this time, rhythmic footsteps came closer. Alan and Martin lifted their heads and saw Silas walking over with a phone.

Seeing the two of them kneeling awkwardly on the ground, Silas froze for a second before he headed toward Draxton’s side. Then, he handed the phone to Draxton as he reported.

“We found Miss Thompson’s location. The address is the villa at Platinum Road. According to our investigation, that villa is Bridget Riker’s private asset.”

With that, Silas said nothing more.

He stood by Draxton’s side as he glanced at Alan and Martin silently.

Alan’s expression when he looked at Silas was complicated.

Silas was one of his men who had joined the Expendable Camp two years after he did.

He had praised Silas countless times before Draxton. Silas was outstanding in character, fighting skills, and how he did things.

When Silas did things, he would be calm and decisive, but at the same time, he would be rational.

He also had a keen talent for reconnaissance, no less than Alan.

However, Silas had always been low-key, never claimed credits, and was always practical.

Alan knew Draxton would make Silas his trusted subordinate, but he had never thought that day would come so early.

However, besides feeling ashamed of himself, Alan felt nothing, including jealousy.

Draxton took the phone and headed outside as he spoke to Silas, “Bring a few men with you.”

Silas quickly took the order and followed Draxton.

When he passed by Alan and Martin, he could not help himself from glancing at them. However, it was an urgent situation, and he could not stop.

Alan and Martin heard the gradually disappearing footsteps, looking pathetic.

They remained on their knees, not daring to rise, and waited silently for the final judgment.

Draxton and Silas were leading the guards and rushing to Bridget’s villa.

Meanwhile, Bridget finally lost her patience and attacked Isabella.

Isabella had also finished the last bite of the meal, drank the last drop of red wine in the glass, and stood up contentedly.

Even in situations like this, Isabella was elegant and calm. It irritated Bridget to see it as though Isabella was the owner of the villa and Bridget was the one who broke in.

It angered Bridget more. Meanwhile, Isabella sniffed the abnormal scent in the air. The smell did not seem obvious, especially with the fragrance of the food and wine.

But Isabella chuckled. “Miss Riker, you must have put much effort into catching me. You released poison the moment you entered this villa.

“Unfortunately, have you noticed that your poison smells a little different?”

Bridget’s expression changed. Only when Isabella reminded her did she subconsciously sniff the difference of
