"I was sent to help you," Linda Diaz replied.
"I an you and your boyfriend," she added while looking at Leonardo and showing her charming smile.
Leonardo couldn’t help but feel confused when he heard that.
"Why?" Margaret asked again, but her voice beca lower.
There was no way her father would do this without a certain reason.
"I was sent to stop that young man if he tries to disturb you..." Linda looked toward Liam Watson when she said that.
With that, Leonardo imdiately ford several conclusions.
It seed there really was a plan to expose his abilities, perhaps arranged by the Head of the Association and executed by Liam.
Jas Harvey had the largest intelligence network in the city, so he could know about it.
"What are you relying on?" Margaret asked.
"Hehehe, your father prepared this." Linda took out a small glass sphere with a dark blue color.
Leonardo didn’t know what it was, but Margaret’s eyes widened.
"He actually gave you this?" she said with an expression of disbelief.
"Miss, I am only holding it and it is impossible for to take it away because this is fully bound to your father. With his thoughts, it can fly back to him by itself. This is only for precaution and will not be used if nothing happens. However, your father wants to make sure that your boyfriend does not use even a little of his abilities. Honestly, I do not understand what is actually happening, but as his employee, I can only carry out the task," Linda explained.
"What exactly is that?" Leonardo asked, looking at Linda and Margaret alternately.
"A World Artifact," Margaret answered.
After hearing that, Leonardo finally understood why Margaret reacted like that.
"Will we be taken away with that?" Leonardo asked.
"Yes, it can be like that, or we can drag that young man and his subordinate into this artifact. That will not be difficult. This artifact can forcibly drag even Awakener at Level 30 to 40."
"Very powerful."
Leonardo was quite shocked again.
He just found out that a World Artifact could be that terrifying.
No wonder it was a priceless treasure.
At the sa ti, he couldn’t help but wonder whether his future father-in-law was truly sincere in wanting him to beco his son-in-law, arranging a plan like this to protect his secret.
After all, if he had bad intentions toward him, why didn’t he just drag him into that World Artifact? Then, even with Invisible Mode that could pass through walls, he would not be able to get out because the space inside a World Artifact is a separate dinsion.
If he were captured, Jas Harvey could easily force him to reveal all his secrets.
This was simple logic.
Of course, Leonardo still felt the need to be cautious.
"Let’s just drag them if they do sothing," he suggested, preferring this plan.
"Of course..." Linda nodded.
"By the way Miss, your father is actually interested in buying this castle. He asked to speak with the Allen Family mbers, so I will go first..." Linda then stood up.
She observed the guests while occasionally looking at her phone, which seed to display various photos of Allen Family mbers.
"That will not work. The Allen Family will keep this castle even if they go bankrupt..." Margaret said.
"I still need to make an offer to them," Linda replied and walked toward a middle-aged man who still looked charming even though he might already be close to fifty.
He was Mateo Allen’s father.
"Ehmm... Miss Harvey..."
Suddenly a young man in his twenties approached them.
He was clearly a young master from a wealthy family, but when greeting Margaret, he seed to beco timid.
"Who are you?" Margaret asked.
"Not an important person," he replied.
Even though he was not an ordinary person, in Margaret’s eyes, he truly was not important.
"I have an offer, you might be interested..." he said.
"If it is a business offer, forget it." Margaret answered indifferently.
"No... I know soone who has a Soul Conduit Crystal Level 3," the man replied.
Leonardo raised his eyebrows when he heard that.
In terms of rarity, Soul Conduit Crystal was actually rarer than Resonance Core, especially Level 3.
Leonardo never expected to obtain it so quickly.
After all, among the few Beast Tars in City Z, none had more than three monsters. Most only had three.
Obtaining a Level 3 Resonance Core this ti was already pure luck.
"Is that person in City Z?" Margaret asked.
"Yes, he is even here... He just is not interested in selling it to you. I accidentally found out about this."
"Who?" Margaret looked around.
Unlike Leonardo, she knew more people.
"Miss Ha-Harvey..." the man hesitated to say it.
"What do you want as paynt?" Margaret asked, imdiately understanding his intention.
Why else would he co and tell them this?
Clearly, it was for a reward.
There was nothing wrong with this. The Harvey Family was used to paying for information.
"Just a little, I only want a little money," the man replied.
"A little money" when said to Margaret could beco several million.
"Show your phone..." Margaret did not hesitate to pay.
The man quickly smiled brightly.
Then he looked at a middle-aged man with a scar on his cheek.
He had a strong physique, currently talking with several important people.
Although he had a scar, he did not look cold because of his relaxed personality.
"Is it him?" Margaret asked.
"Yes..." the man nodded.
"Go!" Margaret waved her hand and the man imdiately left.
"Honey, do you think this is a sche? He might have deliberately leaked his possession of the Soul Conduit Crystal Level 3," she said.
Leonardo was not unfamiliar with that man.
He was one of the Vice Heads of the Awakener Association in City Z.
There were at least seven Vice Heads. They were far from the strength of the Head, but they were the ones who usually handled the association.
Of course, they were still powerful, at least Level 31.
"He will definitely insist on not selling it even if we ask..." Margaret continued, her eyes narrowing before she smiled faintly.
"Do you have a plan?" Leonardo asked when he saw her smile.
"There is no plan that will definitely work, but we should always try..." Margaret replied while standing up.
Leonardo looked at her briefly before following her.
The middle-aged man was quite surprised to see them co.
Even though he was talking with other middle-aged n, they still stopped when they saw them.
"Mr. Johnson, right?" Margaret asked the Vice Head.
"Yes..." he nodded.
"Can we talk for a mont?"
Margaret looked at the others when she said that, and they imdiately moved away.
"What is it, Miss Harvey?" Mr. Johnson asked.
"Is it true that you have a Soul Conduit Crystal Level 3? Why did you not offer it to ? Are you planning to keep it until it gets stolen or sohow you magically beco a Beast Tar?" Margaret chuckled.
When all that was said, the man beca a bit awkward.
But he did not deny it.
"I am not planning to sell it for now," he replied.
"You know, nothing good will happen if you refuse to sell sothing to ," Margaret said.
Mr. Johnson was stunned hearing that, and Leonardo was also stunned.
If a transaction failed, Margaret usually threatened, and her threats were not empty words.
Leonardo had experienced it once.
However, this ti it was a different story. The other party was one of the Vice Heads of the Association, working under one of the strongest Heads.
A person at this level should not accept threats from anyone in this country.
"Miss Harvey, you must be joking," Mr. Johnson said.
"I never joke when I threaten people," Margaret replied.
"Ohh, what do you want to do?" Mr. Johnson provoked, because he truly did not believe anyone in this city would dare to be so arrogant.
Of course, he did not think Margaret could do nothing.
This woman was not weak. The difference in their levels was not far. His only advantage over Margaret was that he had already passed Level 30, which gave him a special evolution.
However, everyone knew Margaret was very strong. That gap could be overco by her, especially with the help of certain weapons and artifacts.
However, in front of so many people, attacking a Vice Head of the Association could trigger retaliation from the federal association.
"Miss Margaret, you are the most beautiful and sexiest woman I have ever seen. I cannot stop wondering how it feels to touch your skin that is so smooth. If I could sleep with you, I would truly be willing to die."
The man’s smile, which was previously full of curiosity, suddenly turned into an aggressive smile.
And his hand actually moved toward the slit of Margaret’s dress.
"You?" Margaret was shocked, trying to step back.
The man’s hand failed to enter the gap of the dress, but still managed to grab the dress.
When two strong forces t, Margaret’s dress was instantly torn.
"What is the aning of this, Mr. Johnson? How dare you harass Miss Harvey." Linda Diaz suddenly appeared with high anger.
