Ethan hoped Kylie was still wearing the bracelet he sent her.

If Kylie still remembered its function or wanted to help them catch Stephen, she would use the alarm system to expose Stephen's location.

​​

Stephen arranged everything well but still couldn't help calling Kylie. As he had planned, he would pick Kylie up at the set tomorrow morning.

He called twice, but nobody answered, so he had to call the set.

Kate picked up his call but also told him that Kylie already left after finishing her part.

Stephen was mad.

If Kylie betrayed their agreement, he would punish Ethan for it!

Therefore, when Ethan received Stephen's call, he was surprised but soon understood it.

He thought Stephen called him to show off, but it sounded different.

Ethan gave Nate a glance to tell him to use the monitoring function to make sure the location of the caller. "Stephen, if you confess to crimes to the police, I can help you get a lighter sentence."

Stephen snorted with disdain, "Ethan, don't act kind before my face. Although you have enough medicine to recover, I can still easily poison you. Even if I can't get Kylie, I won't let you spend the rest of your life with her!"

Ethan carefully discerned the sound in the receiver. It was tranquil. There was no whistles of ships, nor wind or talking.

Is he really hiding in the mountain area?

"I have tons of time, which you don't have," Ethan sneered. "You'll soon be caught. And I will assure you only one of us will win this battle. We both opted to live like a human, but you're taking everything that belongs to me,"

"Oh, our Lord Ethan, seems threatening his little twin brother. Funny, you think I am afraid to fight you. Let's see!" Stephen clenched his teeth in anger and hung up.

Nate took off the headset and shook his head towards Ethan. "There is an anti-monitoring system, and I didn't have enough time to crack it."

"Stephen himself is a computer master, and the software he set cannot be cracked in a short time," Vincent sighed.

Nate put his injured leg on a nearby chair. "He is proficient in medicine and a computer expert. He can save people and also kill them without them knowing it. And I am sure before we could seize him, he already had prepared his plan ahead of us. I just can't figure out why he is doing all of this. It's just because of Kylie; he will ruin our race? It's a waste of his talent if he doesn't commit crimes."

Vincent made a cough to remind Nate to stop complimenting Stephen at this moment.

Nate felt a little embarrassed, then looked at Ethan. "Ethan, if Kylie isn't with Stephen. Where could she be right now?"

Ethan's eyes lit up all of a sudden. He remembered that the little boy who stayed in his home was also gone with Kylie. In that case, Kylie must go to Tory's side.

Why did Kylie do that?

Stephen was as confused as Ethan. He stepped in circles with a frown. The housekeeper walked ahead to comfort him. "Lord Stephen, if Kylie doesn't come, we can invite her to come here."

"Don't hurt Kylie!" Stephen denied it at once.

The housekeeper smiled. "We just invite her to have a visit here. If she's willing to cooperate, we won't hurt her."

Stephen turned to stare at the housekeeper, then caught his neck. "I said, don't hurt her. Don't you understand?"

The smile disappeared from the housekeeper's face in an instant. "I was just saying."

Stephen threw the housekeeper to the ground. The housekeeper moaned in pain but didn't dare say another word.

"We'll finish the deal tonight. Go prepare for it!" Stephen made an order without turning around at all.

He was determined to get Kylie!

Once the deal was done, he had enough time and energy to grab her back!

***

The dock they were going to finish the deal was already abandoned, and there was a large playground which was still under construction nearby.

The clouds were thick tonight, and the moon seemed to know that a battle was about to take place. It hid away again after showing up for just a few minutes.

When it was 9 pm, on the coastline without any light, people could only hear the sound of waves beating against it.

Suddenly, a whistle sounded in the distance, and two flashing headlights flashed in the dark on the shore.

At the same time, Nate's computer sounded an alarm.

"Ethan, it lights up!" Nate got excited.

A bright red dot was moving on the screen of the computer.

Ethan looked serious at once. He enlarged the map on display. Nate approached and said, "Ethan, was Kylie swallowed by a shark?"

Vincent glanced at Ethan, then made a call to assemble his people without delay.

Two groups of people were already gathered at the dock.

Tory walked off the boat with two black bodyguards, carrying two leather suitcases.

Among two dazzling headlights, a pair stood, headed by a tall, handsome young man.

Tory seemed surprised. "Mr. Brown?"

Clown was given this name because he always appeared in a clown mask.

Besides, he was good at disguising. He could be short, tall, fat, or thin with a young man's voice or an old man's voice.

However, the mysterious Mr. Brown showed up with his real face this time.

Stephen smiled. "Been a while, Mr. Romeo."

Tory observed him from head to toe, then joked, "Is it also a human-skin mask?"

Stephen didn't answer the question but waved his hand. Two men walked out from his back at once. "Are you satisfied with the goods?"

"Of course, yes." Tory also told the two black bodyguards behind him to step ahead and show the two leather suitcases.

All of them seemed very kind and exchanged the leather boxes. Afterward, they opened those boxes for a check, then reported it to their leaders that the money and goods were all correct.

"Great, see you." Tory smiled and turned to walk to his yacht.

When he just walked a short distance away, Stephen opened his mouth. "Mr. Romeo, Seattle, is an entertaining city. Why don't you stay here for a couple of days longer?"

Tory turned to face him. "I think you want me to stay here forever."

"You're smart." The second Stephen finished his sentence, a row of people rushed out of the dark. Each of them held a semi-automatic pistol in their hands.

Tory and the two bodyguards were all in the range, but he didn't panic at all. Instead, it seemed he even looked forward to seeing what would happen.

"No wonder Mr. Brown let me see your real face this time. You plan to kill me." As soon as Tory's hand reached into his jacket pocket, sounds of pulling bolts were heard.

Nevertheless, he was still calm as usual and took out a cigar at a slow pace.

A black bodyguard at his side approached and lit it for him.

Tory pulled on it, looking up at the sky, then slowly blew out a stream of smoke. "If so, I also have prepared a big gift for Mr. Brown."

The yacht docked on the shore suddenly lit up, and two men pushed a woman walking onto the deck.

The sea breeze at night messed up her long hair and rolled up her rose-colored trench coat. Although she looked a little untidy, she was still so charming.

The girl shouted at Tory, "You're a jerk! Let me go!"
