Shadows of Destiny

Chapter 71

The Trickery of Envy ~Sylvester~ I woke up in the morning, and Tamia was still sleeping.

I knew she was exhausted and overworked.

Not wanting her to fall ill, I ordered the staff to serve her breakfast in the bedroom.

I showered, got ready for the day, and headed to the dining room.

To my surprise, only Marcel and Theodore were in the dining room for breakfast.

“Tamia too?” That was the first thing Theodore said, and I nodded.

“They must have overworked themselves yesterday,” Marcel said, and I agreed and sat on my seat.

I knew it would be a boring breakfast without our soon–to–be wives.

“Linda returned to the room and passed out last night.

She said she just wanted to put up her feet and fell asleep immediately.” Theodore said, and I smiled.

“Avery passed out immediately.

She entered the room and pleaded with me not to wake her before passing out.

I wondered if Lacy left all the work for them?” Marcel said, sounding slightly annoyed, thinking the event planner didn’t do her work.

“I do not think Lacy is the problem; you know how the women like to handle everything.

That might have been it.

I have asked the staff to serve Tamia in the room.

Honestly, they need to rest.” I said, and they agreed with me.

We ate breakfast in a rush, and then I broke the good news to them.

“So finally, I traced a money receiver in Gad yesterday.

He slipped up and collected money using his ID instead of a secret word or number,” I said, and Marcel was surprised.

“That was a bit too easy, don’t you think? What if they are trying to divert our attention,” He said, and I shook my head.

“I thought as much until I called Noel in Gad to have her trace the guy.

His name is Bricks Liam.

He exists, and he is, indeed, a bit shady.

I wanted her to arrest him, but Tamia came up with a nice idea that we should trace him and investigate him and his associates before we move in to arrest him.

That way, he will lead us to other people,” I said, and Marcel agreed.

“So what has Noel found out?” He asked, and I laughed.

“She saw him yesterday evening.

We need to give it time, but I think it will lead us to a mole or part of Lily’s so–called organisation members here.” I said, and they agreed.

“I think Lily was why we did not catch anyone all this while.

She might have been alerting them to cover their tracks,” Theodore said, thinking the same way I thought.

“I believe so too.

It was smart to keep her and Sofia’s arrest a secret.” Marcel said, and I nodded.

“As for Lily, Tamia thinks we can use her to our advantage,” I said, and Marcel frowned.

“Lily has committed treason, and the punishment is death.

For a lesser punishment, she will have to cooperate and help us catch some of the people.

If she agrees, we will make Sofia’s arrest public and prosecute her; it will force the organisation to reach out to Lily directly.

Tamia said she heard Lily telling them that security would be low during the games.

We could use the games to trap some of the members, “I said, and they were silent, thinking about what I had said.

“That is an excellent Idea.

The girl is too selfish not to agree.

Besides, I doubt she believes in their cause.

I think she was just mad you refused to fuck her,” Marcel said, and we all laughed.

It was a pity because I saw her as my younger sister and treated her well.

“Speaking of the games, there is a slight issue.

It isn’t an issue, but it was created to be so,” I said, and they frowned.
