The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

At this moment, the man asked respectfully, "British Lord, how credible do you think the words Vera left behind are?"

The British Lord was silent for a moment and said coldly, "Her character is similar to her father's character. Although she is resourceful and can even be said to be wise, she rarely engages in any conspiracy, so I believe the sentence that she left behind."

With that said, the British Lord added, “Vera must also know very well that it'd be pointless for her to lie. Even if I see this sentence and even if I believe that she is not lying, I will not give up pursuing her before I find the ring. Even if she does not have the ring on her, she must know the whereabouts of the ring, so the reason why she wrote this sentence is not to confuse me. Instead, it's just to provoke me!"

The man could not help but say, "British Lord, if Vera is not lying, could this mean that she has abandoned the ring somewhere in Northern Europe?"

The British Lord said, "Although the ring is of no use to her, it is of profound significance. She would never abandon it casually just to save her own life."

The man said again, "Could it be stored in a bank safe, then? If a ring is stored in a bank safe with other things, it generally will not attract much attention. The confidentiality of a bank safe is also extremely high, and the identification is based on fingerprints and other biological proofs. So, she can use a fake identity to deposit the ring first and take it out at any time when needed."

"Impossible." The British Lord said lightly, "Vera is far more cunning, and she thinks ahead way more than you can imagine. She would have already thought of anything that you can think of. The bank safe might seem confidential and inconspicuous, but in actual fact, it's not safe at all. If I wanted to, my guards could open all the bank safes in Northern Europe overnight to see what was going on, so why would she take such a risk?"

The man said with some doubt, "British Lord, according to what you've said, the ring is indeed not in her hands, but she did not throw it away at will. She must have a very good way to keep the ring safe, then. So, where do you think the ring is, or how is she keeping it remotely from her?"

The British Lord was silent for a few seconds and said calmly, "I don't have an answer to your question, but the only thing I can be sure of is that the ring is not in Vera's possession at present. Vera is the only clue we have at the moment, so you have to put in your best effort to find her for me!"

After saying that, he paused slightly and continued, "Let Mr. Chardon take action personally this time. Send him to come and see me immediately!"

The man was horrified. Mr. Chardon, whom the British Lord spoke of, was the head of the four earls.

The titles of each of these four earls, each of whom was bestowed by the British Lord, were namely Mr. Chardon, Mr. Dijo, Mr. Jothurn, and Mr. Zorro.

The four of them had served the British Lord for many years and had made great contributions to the development of the forces under the British Lord's command.

In addition to ranking first among the four earls, Mr. Chardon was also the most powerful existence among the four earls. He was the veritable number two figure in the entire organization.

And this man himself was Mr. Zorro, who was ranked last among the four earls.

His contribution to this organizationnoveldrama

could not be compared to the top

three earls, but he had been

awarded the title of Mr. Zorro because of his absolute loyalty to

the British Lord. He was often at the British Lord's side to be at his disposal.

In Mr. Zorro's opinion, sending Mr. Chardon to track Vera down was equivalent to

using precious and powerful resources on trivial matters.

However, he did not dare to question the British Lord's decision. So, he said without any hesitation, “British Lord, I'll go and get Mr. Chardon."

A few minutes later, a middle-aged man who was dressed in a Taoist robe and

had a strong character strode into the main hall gracefully.

As soon as he entered, he knelt on the ground on one knee, saluted the empty throne, and then said respectfully, "British Lord, Mr. Zorro said that you summoned me. What are your orders for me?"

The British Lord's deep voice sounded, "Mr. Chardon, I will give you five years to find Vera Lavor's whereabouts. In these five years, don't care where you go or what

method you use, I will give you net

whatever you want, and you don't need my consent to make any decision. I just want you to bring Vera Lavor to me alive within five years. Can you do that?"

Mr. Chardon was startled for a moment, then clasped his hands together and said out loud, "British Lord, since you have given me this task, will definitely do my best to bring Vera Lavor back as soon as possible!"

The British Lord hummed and said, "I will give you five hundred million US dollars

as funding for these five years. After the task is completed, I will give you five

small Cultivating Pills as a reward!"

As soon as Mr. Chardon heard the words 'small Cultivating Pills', he was immediately pleasantly surprised and said, "Thank you, British Lord!"

After saying that, he leaned forward and groveled thankfully.
