Chapter 276 Risk
Liam’s eyes widened even more when he confirmed that it was indeed Reginald’s arrangement. “Dad,
when did you arrange it? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Reginald said gravely, Finnegan holds the South-North Badge of the Martial Arts Alliance, and has the
support of the Wahlstrom and Langdon families. His background must be influential. Therefore, the noveldrama
fewer people who know about the plan to kill him, the better. Otherwise, even if Finnegan is killed, it will
cause a huge mess!”
So when Reginald asked Bennett for help, he didn’t even tell Mike about it.
Now that the Wright family had stepped in, it confirms his initial guess that Finnegan had an extended
network of connections.
Liam asked, “What do we do now? Your hired men obviously went into hiding after the failed attempt.
Otherwise, the Wright family wouldn’t have imposed martial law in Jadeborough to investigate!”
“Don’t worry, with that person’s skills, they won’t be found easily,” Reginald replied confidently.
“However, it’s always better to be safe than sorry, so we should still make some preparations just in
case.”
Mike nodded. “Dad, tell me what to do.”
“All our efforts had been leading to this moment. Get in touch with Bryn Sutton to lead the Sable
family’s elite forces here. Starting tonight, we will strengthen the defense of the Sable family’s garden.
Keep a close. watch on the people from the Military Department and the Military Department. Find that
person and silence him before they do, to prevent any mishaps. Finally…
At this point, Reginald’s face became a bit more sinister, and his voice lowered slightly. “After arranging
these two matters, find a reason to go to Hailey’s room and kill her too. Dispose of her in secret.”
At these words, Mike was stunned. “Dad, Hailey has been loyal to our family since she started working
for Liam. She just informed us of this news. Why would we need to kill her too?”
Reginald patted Mike on the shoulder.
With a heavy heart, he said, “Finnegan holds South-North Badge of the Martial Arts Alliance and has
the support of the Wahlstrom and Langdon families. Thus, our family can’t lay a hand on him now,
especially now that even the Wright family stands with him! If he finds out that I arranged for someone
to kill him tonight, what do you think he would do? Hailey should be blamed for being too clever as she
figured out- that I arranged for someone to kill Finnegan!”
Realization dawned on Mike. “Dad, I understand.”
Nodding with satisfaction, Reginald waved his hand and said, “. Go. After arranging the two tasks, get
rid of Hailey first. We can’t leave any risks.”
Little did they know that in the vase on their left, there was a listening device installed by Hailey earlier.
She heard their entire conversation while heading to her room.
The charming woman felt both startled and relieved, grateful that she had chosen to ally herself with
Finnegan in advance.

She quickened her pace to her room in the Sable family mansion and dialed Finnegan’s number. “Mr.
Larkin, as you expected, Reginald has ordered the elite to come and guard the Sable family.”
After a moment’s thought, she revealed her predicament, “Also, Reginald only wants to cover up the
truth and has plans to silence me.”
“Don’t worry, you’re with me. No one can kill you. Find a way to buy time!”
“Okay!”
After ending the call, Hailey composed herself and got up to freshen up in the bathroom.
She came out later, wrapped in a bath towel. Her slender legs stepped on the soft carpet, exuding a
unique allure.
At this moment, a knocking sound came from the door.
Hailey’s body jolted as she knew that Mike had come to kill her.
Taking a deep breath, she tried hard not to show any signs of unease as she walked to the door and
opened it.
Indeed, it was Mike.
But when he saw Hailey wrapped only in a towel, his breath involuntarily hitched.
Hailey’s alluring and youthful appearance still had a significant attraction for Mike, a man in his fifties.
Despite her disdain deep down, Hailey remained expressionless. “Mr. Sable, what’s the matter?”
“I want to talk to you. Is it convenient for you to talk now?”
