The price of betrayal (Jack and Ashley) novel Chapter 508

It could even be said that Fang and Malcolm were like brothers.

Scarlet naturally knew Malcolm as well, but compared to Fang's relationship with Malcolm, theirs was much more superficial.

However, for Scarlet, the depth of the relationship didn't matter—whether he even knew Malcolm or not didn't matter. What mattered was that Nolan was furious.

Nolan took a deep breath and spoke softly, "Just now, I was on a video call with Lense when a group of black-clad figures broke into his home. Right in front of me, they brutally beat Lense and even tore out his fingernails. Ha, they really don't take me seriously, do they?

"Perhaps I've been too low-key, so much so that even when I gave them my name, they didn't think too much of it. Let's just hope Lense is still alive, because if he's dead, I'll make sure every single one of them—whether they acted directly or were pulling strings from behind—pays with their lives!"

A statement dripping with killing intent came from Nolan's lips, and it was far more than just empty words. Behind those words lay the promise of rivers of blood and a towering mountain of bones, built from countless lives that would soon be claimed.

"Fang, I order you to immediately command your subordinates to go to Lense's residence and gather every clue they can find! You are to return to Eastland right away. From this moment on, there is only one task—find Lense!

"As for Myth Group, I want a man-to-man surveillance system in place to flush out the traitors. This time, it's an inside-outside collusion. There may be quite a few traitors, and I don't care whether they betrayed Lense or not. It's better to kill the wrong one than let any slip through. Find them all now!"

Fang nodded heavily and said, "Mr. Greene, I'll leave right away, and I swear I'll find the enemy and bring them to you."

Nolan then turned to Scarlet, gritting his teeth as he said, "Leave one team at Misty Hill to protect my family, but take everyone else with you to Eastland. This time, I'll make sure everyone understands the price of laying a hand on my people!"

Hearing this, Nolan replied coldly, "As one of the trump cards my mentor left me, I hadn't planned on using Pierce this early. But now, I'm angry. I'm furious. So, let Pierce come. With him here, wiping the southeastern underworld clean will be within reach!"

After saying this, Nolan paused for a moment before waving his hand. "Go. Two days from now, I will personally arrive in Eastland. By then, I expect to have an answer!"

With Nolan's command, both Fang and Scarlet, along with everyone else, swiftly departed from the island and headed toward Eastland.

Nolan, meanwhile, turned to see Wayne and Melody approaching in a small boat. He let out a soft sigh before forcing a smile onto his face.

When it came to his affairs—especially those involving life-and-death battles—he didn't want his parents to worry too much.
