Let him leave, then. He’s not that important anyway.” 

You don’t get it.” 

If he’s gone, who else is going to turn a blind eye? And why is he suddenly leaving in such a hurry?” 

Three days to wrap everything upit was way too fast

Mr. Richardson scowled

Kason frowned. We were never really after him anyway. Nothing changes for us.” 

He’s been here for three years. It’s normal for him to be transferred back. Dad, I think you’re overreacting.” 

Hearing his son’s reasoning, Mr. Richardson hesitated. Maybe he was reading too much into it

Still, be careful. I have a feeling this isn’t as simple as it looks just make sure nothing goes wrong on your end,” he warned

Don’t worry, Dad.Kason agreed, but his brows remained furrowed

Three days and he’s gone?” 

Hearing the confirmed timeline from Mateo, Sierra’s expression tightened. Could it be that Shane caught wind of something?” 

Definitely. Jade holds a high position. Even though Old He and he operate in different circles, someone at his level will always hear things. He’s smart, toohe probably put the pieces together himself, Mateo said, clearly unhappy

They could make things difficult for Shane behind the scenes, but at the end of the day, those were just minor squabbles between younger generations

Family elders wouldn’t interfere with that

But when it came to attacking someone’s foundation, that was an entirely different matterone no one would take lightly

That’s why, for now, they could only push things this far

Just like last time, all they had done was teach Shane a lesson.” 

It was the frustration of being part of a powerful family. They couldn’t act on personal grudges alonetoo many things had to be considered

Mateo didn’t spell everything out, bur Sierra understood from his expression 

Shane was truly a difficult opponent

She could tellMateo wasn’t nearly as cautious when talking about Kason

To him, getting rid of Kason was as easy as squashing an ant 

But Shane was another matter entirely

Yurtta wasn’t about to push him further on it. Instead, she said, What worries me now is Kason catching on and wiping all the 

evidence 

They still hadn’t found the location of his inhumane experiments

And Kason had made it clearif that place was discovered, the selfdestruct system would trigger immediately

If they failed to take him down this time, they might not get another chance

Chapter 228 A Race Against Time 

But before she could make a call, a strong hand pressed down on hers… 

If Kason is suspicious, you’ll be in danger,Johnathan warned, his expression dark… 

Sierra, you promised me.” 

She promised she wouldn’t risk her own safety 

Sierra parted her lips but didn’t speak for a long moment

I know but after seeing all of that with my own eyes, I can’t just let it go.” 

The animals, the human test subjects, the ones who had already died… 

Unless you saw it yourself, you would never understand the horror

Johnathan. I have to do something.” 

Finished 

No. Johnathan’s voice was firm. Stay out of this. I’ll handle the rest. I promise you, he won’t escape. That’s enough, isn’t it?” 

Sierra still wanted to argue, but seeing the unyielding look on his face, she finally nodded

Johnathan wasted no time

The footage Sierra had taken yesterday was already enough to serve as partial evidence

With this. Stone’s job became much easier

But it wasn’t enough to bring Kason down completely

Johnathan had Dickson work with Stone’s people to infiltrate Richardson Pharmaceuticalssystem, searching for more incriminating data

Dickson quickly realized he was out of his league

Stone’s hackers weren’t just goodthey were toptier

Meanwhile, they were still trying to track down the missing people

Eventually, their search led them to a crematorium

We found records of latenight cremationsno official documentation, no records at all, Dickson reported excitedly

They had been trying to figure out where the bodies went

Kason wouldn’t have kept them around

Dumping them wasn’t an optionit would leave too many traces

But turning them to ash That was plausible

So they investigated several crematoriums and eventually focused on a small, poorly regulated one 

There, they discovered multiple undocumented cremations, with burn times lasting much longer than usualtoo long for just a single body 

With the pieces falling into place, Stone personally arrived in Maviston to discuss the situation with Sierra and Johnathan

I wasn’t supposed to be handling this case in the first place, Stone admitted. But now that we have a lead, I’ll hand it over to a friend of mine. He’ll dig deeper.”
