Chapter 71

Reign’s eyes glinted a more mysterious light. “I cannot let the cat out of the bag”

“Again? Why do you and Haylan like to play riddles? Tell me, what are you trying to do? Yvonne frowned as she stared at Reign.

She had a feeling that Reign had a secret motive for giving Haylan a promotion and a raise.

Reign shook her head and kept her mouth shut.

Yvonnes heart sank.

Based on her understanding of Reign, when Reign was silem, she must be cooking up a major plan in her mind.

It was very likely that Haylan would be implicated.

Suddenly, she regretted it.

If she had known that such a thing would happen when she invited Haylan over, she would not have let Haylan and Reign

After speaking. Lucas was stunned.

“I can speak now?

“Hayden has released the acupoint and let me speak!

“My god!

“His skill is so amazing. He is just like a martial hero!”

Haylan said, “The acupoints will release automatically after four hours. You’re on your own now.”

With a wave of Haylan hand, a powerful force sucked the silver needles out of Lucas’s acupoints. After that, Haylan left without looking back.
