Chapter 191 Roundabout Tactic

Sylvia made a call to Andrew right after Caspian left.

Andrew knew about Sylvia’s identity and had already saved her number in his contacts list after the meeting about the Two Lakes area.

He immediately accepted the call when he saw that the caller was Sylvia herself.

He politely asked, “General Frost, what are your orders?”

“We’ve just killed a dozen or so of Tigra special forces who were trying to assassinate Caspian right outside Southlake Corporation. I need you to clean up the scene. No questions allowed do as you’re told,” ordered Sylvia.

“Yes, Madam!”

Andrew didn’t dare to ask about the given directives despite his confusion after hearing Sylvia’s last sentence.

He just needed to listen and follow through with her orders.

He made a call to Joey and assigned her to clean up the scene right away.

Joey accepted his call and orders, cleaning up the scene with her men right away.

Meanwhile, at Glorious Group, Bob seemed upset as he explained, “Mr. Taylor, an unforeseen circumstance prevented us from successfully capturing Willow.”

He never expected a hidden surprise to throw a wrench in his plans.

“What is it? How did you even manage to fail at capturing a single woman?

Taylor was visibly furious as he was already annoyed thinking about the matter at Dragon’s

Hill.

Bob replied, “Our plan was to capture Willow when she was on the way home after work, but we never expected Caspian to be by her side.

“And the surprise was that Caspian had some powerful fighters following and protecting them. Our men were ambushed when they tried to go in and capture her.”

Caspian’s appearance was truly unexpected.

Furthermore, the appearance of Diatoran’s special forces was never even considered.

Taylor arrogantly explained, “Consider a lesson learned about Caspian, then. He’ll be even more prepared now that our attempt at capturing Willow has failed. We’ll need to go with a
