Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 2569

Fade was somewhat annoyed. "You're too nosy. It's my business and it has nothing to do with you."

"You..." Enraged, Halina moved to hit him.

Minerva quickly stopped her. "Halina, don't. There are many people watching. If you get into a fight here and now, it's very likely that we'll be discovered by the Skull Mob."

Those words made Halina stop, but she still stared at him warily.

Minerva turned her gaze to him immediately. In a serious tone, she said, "We know that you're Quin's husband, but this matter is of great importance. There's no room for mistakes."

"If you are not careful enough here, you're very likely to be discovered by the Skull Mob members. At that time, it'll become even more perilous to save Quin."

Her amiable tone calmed him down. He said, "Since you're also here to rescue Quin, why don't we cooperate with each other and share the information we have gathered? It will be safer. The possibility of the rescue succeeding will be greater."

"Well..." She did not know how to reply for a moment.

Halina, on the other hand, shut him down directly. "Share our information? Don't even think about it. Even if you are trustworthy for now, I'm afraid you'll only get in the way."

Fade inadvertently twitched his brows at that. "Get in your way? Oh, but certain people are weaker than I am!"

"Weaker? We'll only know that after a fight, and not from you bragging about yourself," she responded coldly.

He couldn't be bothered to reply to that old hag anymore. He gazed at Minerva and said, "Minerva, I don't know who you are, but since we have the same goal, I hope you can convey my words to your superior. I hope you'll cooperate."

"I will." She nodded.

"Thank you." He nodded too, and got ready to leave.

However, just then, Halina stared at him unflinchingly and said, "Kid, you'd better not mess around and ruin our plan."

He shook his head and ignored her.

He bought a set of tourists' clothes from the market, some accessories, and other items. Holding a camera, he walked towards the center of the island.

The closer he got to the center of the island, the fewer people there were. The number of trees increased.

After walking for about half an hour, he saw a luxurious manor hidden in the forest ahead.

The manor was quite large. It was inside the forest area, surrounded by a three-meter-high iron fence. There were many guards with weapons patrolling around.

"This must be the manor of the rich people that the villa owner talked about."

As Fade thought that, he turned to the camera in his hand, ready to snap some photos.

However, just as he was about to angle the lens towards the manor, two guards with batons came over and glared at him menacingly. "What are you doing?"

"I, tourist, picture!" He raised the camera in his hand and gestured.

However, one of them snatched the camera in his hand away and threw it on the ground, smashing it into pieces. "Get out of here! You're not allowed to take pictures here."

"My camera, how can you..." Fade looked woeful.

However, the guards rushed toward him fiercely, looking as though they were going to attack him.

Fade frowned, but in the end he did not make a move. He retreated.

Following that, he continued in his search, disguised as a tourist. He derived a general idea of his surroundings.

The area from the harbor to the center of the forest was occupied by the manors of six rich people.

If one wanted to enter the center of the forest directly from the port, one had to pass through their territory. Each manor had numerous guards around it. It was impossible for an ordinary person to sneak by secretly.

From small talk, he learned that the six wealthy people had not been on the island for a long period of time. They would seldom appear two at a time. They would usually appear one after another.

However, every six months, all six would show up on the island together.

After he learned that, he was almost certain that those six people had something to do with the Skull Mob.

Them appearing one after another meant that they were rotating shifts, to prevent outsiders from discovering the Skull Mob's territory.

It was very likely that a grand meeting was held every six months.

At that thought, Fade quietly walked to the frontal area of one of the manors, gazing at the magnificent manor behind the iron fence.

This manor was located on the far left side.

Its owner was Wilbur, a businessman. He had a property which amounted to tens of millions of dollars. He was also an honorary viscount, high up in society.

Nevertheless, his status was relatively lower among the six. The other five people's assets and status were comparable to his, or even better. Fade could tell that from the quality of the guards outside the manor.

The guards in the other manors were between the middle stage and the last stage of the Earth Level.

el

Wilbur's guards were only at the early stage of Earth Level, maybe even a little weaker. Furthermore, their attitude was much more relaxed when patrolling. They stopped walking at times and even chatted and laughed quite a bit.

He debated whether he should use Wilbur as the starting point of his investigation or not.

Just then, a black car suddenly pulled up at the gate of the manor.

The door opened. Then, two men carried a young, black-haired, Asian woman out of the car and dragged her into the manor.

The woman struggled but the men covered her mouth and lugged her inside.

Fade's gaze became chilly when he saw that.

A few locals passing by, already used to such things, pretended as if they saw nothing.

"They..." Fade's gaze was as cold as ice. He was about to rush inside.

Beside him, a local fisherman prompted him, "Young man, I'd advise you not to meddle in other people's business."

"But they took her by force. It's kidnapping," Fade said hurriedly.

The fisherman shook his head and said, "So what? Who do you think can interfere in such a place?"

"There's no one who can?" Fade asked.

The fisherman sneered. "Who dares

e

interfere? He's a Viscount, a bigshot in the business world. How would an ordinary man dare to interfere?" "Moreover, Wilbur has always been like this. He's a lecherous man who has a habit of scouting beautiful women from the island to serve him. It's been going on for years. Such things happen almost every month."

"Plus, those women were all happy to receive Wilbur's money."

"That's how the world works."Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Young man, mind your own business. Don't meddle in other people's business!" The fisherman sighed, shook his head, and left.
