"Mr. Clara, relax. As long as you do what I say, I'll return your woman unharmed. The voice on the phone was altered by some device, making it unrecognizable. Hunk started tracking the number when the call connected.

Anthony frowned and tried not to let his emotions affect his thinking. He asked coldly. "What do you want?"

"Transfer all your shares to the person I designate, the person on the phone said,

"Okay," Anthony agreed without hesitation,

"I like your straightforwardness, the man said cheerfully, his tone noticeably lighter. "Then, I await your good news."

With that, he ended the call Hunk's pursuit ended abruptly when the call dropped. He only knew the approximate location was near the sea. Then, Anthony's phone received a demand to transfer all his shares into the name of a person. Anthony asked Hunk to proceed to do it

it..

Hunk hesitated. "Mr. Clara, we haven't located the other party yet. If we transfer our shares, they might not keep their promise. If the shares go to them, what about Clara Group"

Anthony, calm and composed, raised his hand to interrupt Hunk, "I know what I'm doing. I'd give them the shares, but I doubt they'd live long enough to keep them"

Anthony tapped his fingers on the back of the chair and issued his order, "Transfer a portion of the shares first to lower their guard. At the same time, instruct all members of the Clara family, in my name, to attend an urgent meeting tonight within half an hour. Non-compliance will result in expulsion from the company."

"Okay" Hunk nodded. He had been with Anthony for so long that he could understand his plan instantly.

Typically, kidnappings were motivated by money, not by the desire for shares. Anthony suspected that someone from the Clara family was involved in this incident. Therefore, he planned to gather everyone at the meeting to investigate further.

The call was tracked to a location near the sea, whereas Clara Group was situated in the city center, quite a distance away. The mastermind couldn't return within half an hour. Knowing the ambitious nature of the Clara family, they would rush to comply with the company's demands. Anyone who failed to show up on time would be highly suspicious.

Hunk had to admire Anthony's move

As Hunk was about to proceed, he heard Anthony say again, "Go replace out what Shawn and Zachary are doing tonight."

Even though the person on the phone had altered his voice, the tone and pace of speech were distinct. Their mannerisms in conversation resembled those of Shawn and Zachary "Okay. Hunk responded.

After Hunk left, Anthony took Samuel and others to the seaside.

The sea was turbulent, and a storm was brewing at Auroran tonight

Meanwhile, in the warehouse near the sea, the masked man proudly held his phone. He looked at Habella, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "I didn't expect you to be so useful. He loves you enough to give his things away

Isabella also heard the conversation. When she heard Anthony's unwavering answer, her heart truly trembled. She wanted to tell him it wasn't worth it. But her captors had taped her mouth shut, so she could only make muffled sounds.

Suddenly, the masked man's phone rang, and he looked at it. The content made him widen his smile.

He excitedly showed his phone screen to Isabella. "See, I'll get what I want soon enough. When I get what I want, neither you nor he will be spared. Isabella was anxious when she saw the contents on the phone. She thought, Anthony is usually so scheming. How could he be manipulated by

them?

She stared at the screen and whimpered.

Seeing that she had something to say, the masked man suddenly ripped the tape off her mouth. The tape stuck to her hair, causing Isabella to hiss slightly in pain. After the pain subsided. Isabella gritted her teeth and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

The masked man felt that this woman was no longer a threat to him, so he simply took off the mask on his face.

He had decided that once he obtained the shares, he would kill Isabella and dispose of her body in the sea. He had no intention of sparing Anthony either. "It's you," Isabella said. Under the mask was Zachary's face.

Isabella didn't appear surprised. She had long suspected that the mastermind was someone from the Clara family-either Shawn's men or Lewis'

"You seem quite calm" Zachary was a little surprised. This wasn't what he wanted.

Then, he took out the photo that Isabella had first obtained and pointed to the hand holding the torch. "If I told you this was my hand, and I started that bre myself, can you still remain so calm!" Isabella's hands clenched behind her, trembling with anger. The Davis family had always been her sore spot. They have no grudge against you. Why did you kill them!"

"They can only blame you for having a relation with Anthony, Zachary smirked wickedly and enjoyed Isabella's rage

He was the eldest grandson of the Clara family. Yet, he was inferior to Anthony. He had endured much at Anthony's hands over the years. He relished seeing Anthony and his woman suffer in anger and helplessness while being tortured by him

After tonight, the entire Clara family would be under his control. He wouldn't need to live under anyone else's thumb anymore

Isabella was not only angry at this moment but also hated herself. It was because of her that so many people in the Davis family were dead. She was the sinner of the Davis family. Now the killer stood in front of her, and she couldn't do anything about it.

our of her mouth.

Isabella but her lip in anger, causing a trace of blood to flow from the corner of

"Tsk! You're so angry The more angry Isabella was, the more excited Zachary became. He said again. Tll tell you another secret. It's been a long time suce the Davis residence was burned down. Anthony must have found out something. Do you know why he hasn't avenged you despite caring about you so much!"

trying to say?" An ominous feeling gripped Isabella's heart.

"What are you trying

Zachary continued. "Anthony's surname is Clara, the same as mine."

"Imposible. Anthony won't. Isabella retorted without hesitation.

Having been with Anthony for so long, she was aware of the complex dynamics within the Clara family. Without William's influence, these people could turn against each other. Anthony would never protect them unless something else had happened.

"Why wouldn't he? Mr. William Clara favored him greatly at that time and wanted him to lead the Clara family. He had to consider everything for the family's sake. If that matter is exposed, it could have a significant impact on the Clara family. It's entirely possible he might abandon you to protect them." Zachary provoked

His goal was to stoke Isabella's hatred toward Anthony and then kill her while she harbored spite against Anthony. This would infic sudering on Anthony

But Isabella didn't fall for it and said firmly, "I trust Anthony more than you. He followed me into the sea back then. He was on the end of his ropt too. Save your breath"

Seeing that labella didn't fall for it. Zacune

face darkened "Boring"
