Chapter 1615
She whispered, "Leader, Leader, I brewed a cup of coffee for you, please have some."
"Hmm?" The man’s voice deepened, and suddenly his hand shot out, pulling her violently towards him, spilling the coffee all over the floor!
Raine Nolan’s already pale face lost all color instantly, "I’m sorry, Leader, I was presumptuous, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have disturbed you!"
She was extremely scared!
Yet, her eyes couldn’t stop trying to peer through that mask to see the face behind it.
It seemed as though there was only darkness behind it, impossible to see anything at all.
"Ah!"
Her eyes suddenly hurt, and then she was thrown out, her whole body in so much pain she couldn’t make a sound.
The Leader’s mood improved slightly, "Continue mopping the floor, and not a speck of dust is to be allowed!"
Raine Nolan finally recovered and hurriedly nodded, "Yes."
She had wanted to ask why the Leader insisted on sparing Chloe Collins’s life.
She had eavesdropped on the conversation at the cemetery; Chloe Collins had acted that way towards him, yet he still spared her life!
While she, a loyal subordinate, had to do such menial work every single day!
The feeling of injustice inside her grew stronger and stronger.
She knelt down to wipe the floor and couldn’t help but glance over at the Leader again, always feeling that his true face harbored some secret. Otherwise, why would he keep the mask on even on his own turf?
...
The night was cool as water, and dark clouds obscured the bright moon.
A woman knelt outside the main gate of the Collinses’ residence, her legs and feet numb from the extended kneeling.
The Butler hurriedly walked to the second floor and knocked on the study room door.
Tristan Collins was reading a book calmly, his expression as rigid as ever.
"Master, she has been kneeling outside for three hours now and won’t leave no matter what we say. What do you think, would you like to go and see for yourself?"
The Butler felt pity; after all, she was once the lady of the house and treated them quite well.
Now that they were divorced and she needed something from Tristan Collins, he was so unfeeling. Those around them couldn’t stand to watch.
After all, no matter what she had done wrong, Rosalind Taylor had always been faultless in one regard—that is, serving Tristan Collins.
However, hearing this only irritated Tristan Collins, "What is she here for exactly?!"
The Butler hastily replied, "It’s about Miss Raine’s disappearance. It seems Miss Raine got infected; she had been staying well in the hospital until she suddenly disappeared. Mrs. Taylor is all alone and has little power, so she is seeking your help to find her."
Tristan Collins frowned upon hearing this, "Infected?"
"Yes, according to her, Miss Raine was kidnapped by Mutated Beings. She now wants to rescue Miss Raine and is asking for you to send a few people to help."
Tristan Collins snorted, "I’ve already heard about that. It’s her own fault for messing with Mutated People, nearly killing the entire Spence family, causing trouble with the Fosters. It was her choice. Tell Rosalind Taylor I won’t get involved and she should leave!"
"Sir, could you reconsider? Her daughter is all she has."
Tristan Collins remained unmoved, "If you’re so concerned, why don’t you go help her?"
The Butler was startled and quickly said, "I didn’t mean that, sir. I’ll go out now."
After the door closed, Tristan Collins lost interest in reading.
He thought hard for a long time and suddenly picked up the phone, making a call.
"Hans, I need to speak with Milton."
"You want to talk to him?" Hans White was suspicious, "What do you need him for? Can’t you talk to me about it?"
Tristan Collins hesitated briefly and, after some consideration, did not mention Joy Taylor, instead saying, "Have you heard about the Mutated Beings? The New Human Project—I want to know who is leading it."
