The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

However, Remingtons father cut her off, saying, This race will be unlike any other, Miss Moore.

I suggest you prepare yourself.

Snap! With a snap of his fingers, two attendants stepped forward and motioned for her to leave.

Miss Moore, if you would please excuse us.

I have some matters to discuss privately with Remington.

Hannah glanced at the two people beside her, then her gaze settled on Remington.

Nodding, she said, Alright, I wont impose any longer.

Ill head back now.

After Hannah left, the living room fell into an uneasy silence.

The smile on Remingtons fathers face vanished.

He turned to Remington with a steely gaze and snapped, Kneel down! Remington, who was standing in the center of the living room, sank to his knees, his face devoid of any emotion.

You very well know I want to kill that woman, dont you? A N G E L A s L I B R A R Y Sitting next to him, Petersons gaze shifted, but he remained silent.

Remington lowered his head in silence.

Remingtons father snorted with disdain.

Do you have any idea how much she could affect us if she stays alive? Her being alive wont be an obstacle.

Remington lowered his head and replied, We are partners.

Remingtons father lit a cigar, placed it in his mouth, and asked, What partnership are you talking about? I have investigated this woman.

She is not as simple as you think.

The Moreno family, who had been working with us all this while, broke their financial ties in Cadilind.

The Mitchell family annexed them.

Did you know about this? I know, Remington retorted coldly.

But it has nothing to do with her.

God, youve learned to find silly excuses for her! Wallace is in the hospital now.

Nobody knows if he is dead or alive.

This is a good opportunity for us.

Eliminating her would put an end to the trouble for good.

Shes an unpredictable element, and even if youre working with her now, theres no assurance she wont exploit you later.

You might as well just kill her here and put an end to this once and for all! Petersons knuckles turned white as he clenched his fists as his eyes reddened with rage.

No way! Remington knelt, lifting his gaze toward the couch.

Father! Even if shes dead, and so do all those people under her command, they still wont stop! If she dies, we dont have to worry about anyone else.

Remingtons father took a slow drag from his cigar, exhaling the smoke with deliberate ease.

He fixed his gaze on Remington and said, Besides, theres still Wilfred to consider.

Id rather believe a fool like Wilfred over that woman.

He would be a better puppet capable of doing our job.

As for the others, we will get rid of them sooner or later.

Once you kill this woman, it would be easier to deal with the others.

Remington pursed his lips, took a deep breath, and finally said, I wont let you hurt her! You are my son; I value you more than anything in this world.

Dont let me down.novelbin

Remingtons father slowly stood up from the couch, walked up to Remington, and patted his shoulder.

Dont disappoint me! Father, you are right about everything.

Remington Lowered his eyes resolutely.

But dont expect me to agree with you on this.

I wont let you kill her.

Oh? Remingtons father raised his eyebrows, his eyes narrowing with a dangerous glint.

Why are you so insistent about protecting her? Have you fallen in love with that woman?
