Chapter 256: Chapter 256
Jude Ford was so shocked he stuttered. The person who destroyed several of their strongholds and caused them heavy losses was actually the big boss’s second brother!
Thinking about the kicks he gave Steven Everett just now, he immediately withdrew his foot silently.
"How are you here, Serena?"
Finally seeing her face clearly, Steven Everett was equally incredulous.
Serena felt a headache coming on, her pale fingers pressing hard against her brow, clearly not expecting the person they caught to be her second brother!
She took a small porcelain bottle from her pocket, poured out a pill, and stuffed it into Steven Everett’s mouth.
Swallowing the pill, Steven Everett’s strength quickly returned. He stood up, looking at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression, "Serena, are you really the Lord of the Underworld—Lord Moros?"
With nothing left to hide, Serena nodded and admitted, "Yes, second brother, I am."
Tsk, another secret identity exposed!
"How? How could you be Lord Moros, Serena?!"
Steven Everett still couldn’t believe it; his so-cute and obedient sister couldn’t possibly be the notorious Lord Moros!
Seeing Steven Everett’s life-questioning expression, Serena pursed her red lips and changed the subject.
"Second brother, how did you find my extremely hidden stronghold?"
She could let the fact that he destroyed several of her strongholds go, but she absolutely wouldn’t forgive the person who betrayed her!
Steven spoke the truth, "It was Damian Quinn who gave me the information!"
The one trying to catch her was her second brother, and the one who betrayed her whereabouts was her fiancé. How ironic!
"Again Damian Quinn?!"
After his initial shock, Jude Ford began to enjoy the schadenfreude. Damian had angered the boss again; this time he was done for, hahaha!
Steven rubbed his forehead, "Let’s go out first. My people are still lurking outside."
Serena nodded and followed him out. Steven signaled, and suited-up operatives rushed in from a hundred meters away.
"This operation is halted."
Upon hearing these words, they were all incredibly shocked.
"Why, Captain? We finally found Lord Moros’s whereabouts. If we miss this chance, it’ll be hard to catch him next time!"
"Yeah, yeah... Captain, we can’t stop the operation!"
Upon seeing Serena emerge from behind Steven, they became even more puzzled.
"And why is Serena here?"
Serena blinked lightly and calmly said, "Because the person you’re trying to catch is me."
The room fell into dead silence all at once.
After a moment, someone couldn’t help but speak up boldly.
"Captain, is this your supposedly most obedient sister?"
Whose obedient sister is actually the notorious, dual-natured Lord of the Underworld—Lord Moros?!
Steven fell into silence again.
"Boss, it’s bad, there’s a group approaching us!"
Hearing Jude Ford’s report, an annoyed look flashed in Serena’s eyes. More trouble, do they think she’s easy to bully?
"Tell the snipers to be ready. If they get close, shoot."
"Serena, don’t be impulsive." Steven hastily said, "It should be Damian Quinn’s men!"
"He’s daring to come too!" Jude Ford immediately perked up and fanned the flames, "Boss, he caused our stronghold to be destroyed, with heavy losses. He’s really too detestable! You can’t just let him off easily!"
Steven felt something wasn’t right, though the information came from Damian Quinn, he was the one who destroyed the strongholds!
But to avoid making his precious sister angry, Steven kept quiet like a good boy.
Damian Quinn rushed over with a large group of Hidden Guards. A confused look flashed on his charmingly handsome face; why was his girl here?
Serena gazed at him with her enchanting fox-like eyes, feeling a bit angry inside.
"What’s wrong, babe?"
Damian Quinn, sensing the girl’s unhappiness, quickly took large strides over, naturally aiming to hold her hand.
Seeing him, Serena got even angrier and coldly flicked his hand away. Damian’s hand froze mid-air.
Watching this scene, Jude Ford secretly rejoiced, then quietly indulged in schadenfreude.
Serves him right, truly serves him right, let’s see how he’ll boast about it in the future!
Has the girl already grown tired of him?
Damian Quinn frowned, his mesmerizing almond-shaped eyes looked at her pitifully, not saying a word yet evoking a sense of sympathy.
Serena almost laughed out in anger, was he feeling wronged?
Seeing this, Steven’s conscience nagged at him a bit, so he quietly advised, "Serena, don’t be angry with him, it’s ultimately my fault. But I never imagined you were Lord Moros!"
His girl was the Lord of the Underworld, Lord Moros?
Damian Quinn clenched his jaw, finally understanding why she was this upset!
My God, Miss Serena was actually the renowned Lord of the Underworld, Lord Moros?!
Chase Sherman, standing aside, after his shock, quietly marveled in his heart.
Tsk tsk tsk, what a situation. Master Damian won over the second brother-in-law, yet completely offended Miss Serena! ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI[F]ire.net
"Baby, I just wanted to help your second brother, I didn’t expect it to turn out ..."
The man already had an irresistible face, now looking both aggrieved and innocent made it impossible to resist.
Serena couldn’t help but soften a bit, and when he held her hand again, she didn’t shake him off.
"Boss, you forgave him just like that?" Jude Ford looked at this scene in disbelief.
When did their boss become so easy to appease?
Serena pressed her red lips without speaking, if it were someone else she wouldn’t let them off so easily, but it was him!
"Boss, you can’t just forgive him ..."
Jude Ford hadn’t finished this sentence before Damian Quinn cast a chilly glance, full of dominance.
He shivered uncontrollably, but still managed to glare back at Damian stubbornly, "Boss, you can’t let his good looks deceive you, you can’t just forgive him !"
Serena didn’t want to listen to them argue anymore and turned her gaze to Steven.
"Second brother, why are you trying to capture me?"
She hadn’t used the name Lord Moros in a long time and only recently took over the underworld again. Yet military personnel were now trying to capture her; it was just too strange!
Bringing up this matter, Steven’s face immediately turned serious.
"Because the authorities need your help, but since your whereabouts are too elusive, official channels couldn’t find you, so they assigned me this task!"
"The reason I destroyed several of your strongholds was to force you to appear, so we could find you!"
