All Too Late

Chapter 336 The Grim Reveal

Sometime after arriving at Florinia Manor, Gizem sat in her room with her phone in hand.

She hesitated briefly before phoning Theodore.

This time, he answered the call without any complaints.

“Master…” Gizem took a while to ask, “How are things on your end?”

“So you’ve heard?” Theodore’s morose voice answered with a question of his own.

“Yeah,” replied a nodding Gizem. “Do you need me to return?”

“Dearest Gizem, it’s indeed time for you to repay my past kindness to you.” There was a hidden meaning behind Theodore’s tone. “Do you know why I sent you to Jadeborough?”

“You have a mission for me.”

“Indeed.” Theodore’s tone took on a blade-like sharpness. “I’m going to tell you what your mission is now.”

“All right.” Gizem nodded.

“I want you to kidnap Samuel’s daughter. Bring her here.”

W-What? That was not what Gizem expected. “But why, Master?”

“Why are you asking so many questions? Don’t forget who rescued you when you were unconscious back then. If it weren’t for me, you would’ve suffered plenty more disfigurement than the one on your face.”

Gizem tensed. “That’s true. But Master, why would you abduct Samuel’s daughter if Samuel’s the one you’re after?”

A bone-chilling chuckle came from the phone. “Do as I command. Or, are you not planning to obey me?”

An apathetic look shrouded Gizem’s face. “That’s not what I meant.”

“I expect a lot from you, Gizem. As long as you bring Samuel’s daughter over, I’ll make you Axeworth Corporation’s successor.”

Gizem frowned as she did not care about achieving such a thing.

“You’d better get moving.” Theodore’s tone bore a heavy weight.

Lips pursing for a moment, Gizem eventually replied, “Okay. I got it.”

Following that, Theodore hung up the phone.
