Chapter 544: Chapter 487: Inside Traitor
The whole living room suddenly went quiet.
Olivia Lane was also stunned for a mont, and then her eyes started to sparkle. The soul of gossip was burning.
Hugo Clark watched her little expression, and his eyebrows moved slightly.
Arthur North saw Jas Collins’s obviously wanting to say more expression, and got up and left.
Hugo Clark followed closely behind.
“Sister, don’t you believe ?” Jas Collins asked.
Charlotte Lane did not speak.
Damian Brown is indeed quite cool sotis.
“Sister, it’s true.” Jas Collins said, “That day she got drunk, and she forced .”
Olivia Lane’s eyes widened. This sounded like a victim’s tone.
“And then the next day, after waking up, she didn’t admit it.” Jas Collins said angrily.
“That’s so pathetic.” Olivia Lane muttered under her breath.
“She even said she hadn’t touched a man in a long ti and was a bit lonely.” Jas Collins complained, “She asked to forget it and not worry about it.”
Charlotte Lane: “……”
“What happened then?” Olivia Lane asked curiously.
“To keep her from feeling lonely and finding soone else, I moved in with her and even shared the sa bed.” Jas Collins said proudly, “She is now my girlfriend.”
Olivia Lane’s mouth twitched slightly.
Charlotte Lane rubbed her eyebrows.
“Sister, am I aweso or not?” Jas Collins asked.
Charlotte Lane said softly, “Actually… you don’t have to tell these details.”
“It’s fine. You’re not an outsider.” Jas Collins slumped back, “I was going to tell you anyway.”
Charlotte Lane didn’t say anything.
“Sister, we didn’t say no to relationships within the organization, right?”
“No.” Charlotte Lane said, “It’s not bad. This way, I can save so money.”
Jas Collins: “……”
“There are guest rooms on the fourth floor.” Charlotte Lane looked at him and said, “Either go take a bath or go straight to rest. Don’t stay here.”
“Alright.”
…
After William Lane and the others returned, they also took a day off.
At dinner ti, everyone ate together in the restaurant.
As they were about to finish eating, Xavier Dominic asked a question: “Brook Sister, I am curious about sothing.”
“Hmm?”
“Who are Alvin Phantom and Roy Ryder?” Xavier Dominic asked, “I’ve t all of them, and I’m a little curious. This is sothing I can be curious about, right?”
“Yes.” Charlotte Lane said calmly, “Alvin Phantom is Holt Lawrence, and Roy Ryder… is Robinson Scott.”
Xavier Dominic choked on his wine and coughed for a while.
Olivia Lane looked at him for a mont, handed him two tissues, and smiled, “Brother Xavier, how does it feel to eat your own gossip?”
Xavier Dominic coughed for a mont: “It’s, it’s good. So… the Darknight Alliance is subordinate to the Hundred Demons Pavilion.”
Charlotte Lane said, “The Darknight Alliance is Robinson Scott’s own. Only Robinson Scott is a mber of the Hundred Demons Pavilion.”
“I see.”
Charlotte Lane nodded.
Compared to Robinson Scott being Roy Ryder, everyone was more surprised that Holt Lawrence was Alvin Phantom.
“So…the Celestial Pivot…”
“The Celestial Pivot is under the Hundred Demons Pavilion.” Charlotte Lane said.
“So Holt Lawrence hid so well.” Xavier Dominic said, “I was wondering why there were Alvin Phantom’s people in Truro City, so Alvin Phantom is actually dostic.”
“Yes.”
“Brother Xavier, do you suddenly feel like you’ve married up?” Olivia Lane joked.
“I’ve always been marrying up.” Xavier Dominic finished and looked at Charlotte Lane, then said sothing very bold: “Brook Sister, I rember when you were little you also called Brother Xavier…”
His words were cut short, trailing off mid-sentence.
Arthur, Charlotte, and William’s gaze had left him feeling like he’d been stabbed.
Especially Arthur’s stare, he felt like his peaceful resting place had already been chosen.
Feeling the weight of three of them altogether, he felt as if his entire body had been hit by a softening Palm, turning weak.
The other three were also looking at him and admiring his courage.
Jas gave him a thumbs up: “You’re really sothing.”
Allonzo forced a smile, raised his clasped hands above his head, and pleaded for rcy from the others.
After a few casual conversations, they brought up the matter of Arthur being intercepted.
Hugo said, “Very few people know about Third Uncle coming to Mountain Sea Continent. No matter how good Edward Kirsten is, he couldn’t have predicted Third Uncle coming to Mountain Sea Continent and prepared in advance.”
“Moreover, it was a preparation that started almost a month ago,” Allonzo Hobson said. “The X Hacker Alliance has been established for nearly a month. In the morning, Adrian Roberts and others interrogated a few people, saying the alliance was specifically founded to target Cloud Easton.”
Initially, they made quite a scene, ostensibly testing the hackers’ abilities and training. As a result, they carried out several big operations.
To confuse the enemy, they pointed the finger at Celestial Pivot, claiming they wanted to challenge Celestial Pivot.
Their actual target was Cloud Easton.
“And their deploynt, with so many people and such strong targeting, is definitely not a recent preparation,” William Lane said.
“So… we have a rat in our midst,” Allonzo Hobson drawled, but with an edge to his voice.
“Who knew about my sister and her group coming here?” Jas asked while eating a crab leg.
There was a brief silence among them.
Because no one outside the family knew.
Even when Arthur first went to Ezekiel Santiago to ask for leave, he said it was to go to D Continent and didn’t tell the Dean about going to Mountain Sea Continent.
It’s not that he didn’t trust the Dean, but that the normal process for asking for leave would have been visible to others.
It’s the others he didn’t trust.
So from the first ti his leave was not approved, he said he was taking Nicholson Amos to D Continent for so matters.
Jas could tell by the look on their faces that this would not be a simple matter, so he didn’t ask further.
“At ho… very few people knew about it,” Alie Quentin suddenly whispered.
Hugo replied, “Yeah.”
“And this person should also know when you guys wanted to co the first ti,” William Lane said. “According to the tiline, it was right after your leave from the research institute was not approved, and they began preparing.”
“They didn’t co the first ti, but they had to co eventually. The ti difference gave the enemy an opportunity.” Jas switched to another crab leg. “At least two ssages were sent by this person. And the timing was just too coincidental, giving the enemy a chance.”
It was indeed a coincidence, but who would have thought there would be a problem at ho that would expose their whereabouts?
After a quiet mont, Arthur suddenly said, “Everyone here is a suspect.”
William Lane, Hugo, and Allonzo Hobson: “……”
“Not ,” Jas said. “I didn’t know you guys were coming. My sister called over two days ago.”
Allonzo looked at Arthur and paused before saying, “You’re the biggest suspect! You want Brook Sister to worry about you, and then let Brook Sister take the people to destroy the Platinum Burke Family. You just want to hide and take it easy, you did it on purpose.”
“This is sothing Arthur could do,” William Lane nodded in agreent.
Hugo secretly agreed in his heart but didn’t dare to speak out for fear of retaliation.
“You three just roll away,” Arthur said with a laugh and a rebuke.
Still caught in the crossfire, Hugo: “……”
“It was you who started it,” Allonzo said.
William Lane added, “Which ti wasn’t it you who started it.”
Charlotte listened to them talking but never said a word.
Clark family and Lane Family’s servants, housekeepers, and gardeners have all been carefully screened and are trustworthy, and very few people knew about this.
Aside from the servants, even the housekeeper in Arthur’s yard didn’t know he had co to Mountain Sea Continent.
As for the Lane Family, it seed that only Aunt Cruz knew about it.
Of course, they cannot rule out the possibility of other hidden sches, although the chances are slim.
But… the only things that could be thought of on the surface were those.
It’s just that no one wants to suspect, nor wants to rupture the situation, maintaining this stalemate for the ti being.
