Chapter 956

Could a five-year-old detoxify the poison? Or did they get a double to pretend to be Lily?

Before Brandon could answer Eddie's question, the study's door was pushed open with a bang, and a mocking

female voice interrupted his thoughts, "You seem to be in a good mood."

Eddie was already troubled by the news, and now he had to deal with this headache invading his home. Annoyed

didn't even begin to encompass how he felt about Yvonne. He didn't like people who didn't knock and entered

uninvited.

Nevertheless, she stomped toward him fearlessly and snarked condescendingly, "Is this the gift you said? What a

surprise!"

Eddie didn't bother with pleasantries as he demanded, "Have you seen their daughter?"

Hanson and Vania had never exposed Lily's identity or picture to the public.

Of their seven children, only James, Jack, Jacob, Morales, and Morgan had appeared in public. Lily and Jude never

showed their faces to the public.

Despite that, they had kidnapped Jude before, so they knew what he looked like. Meanwhile, Lilith had sent Lily's

photo to him once too.

However, the picture on the news today was blurry.

Eddie observed the image but couldn't identify any distinctive marks on her. The longer he looked at the photo, the

more unlikely he felt that the girl was Lily. He even assumed that Hanson hired a double to replace her for the time

being.

There were so many reporters at the hospital. How could none of them take a clear photo of Lily? Eddie was certain

that they had manipulated the image somehow.

"Is that an excuse I'm hearing?" Yvonne knew what he was referring to, yet she was already thinking that he had

failed to execute the mission as promised. "I guess this is the end of our cooperation."

"Are you sure? Have you thought it through?" Eddie no longer tried to convince her to stay. Instead, he asked in a

somewhat conspiratorial manner. It sounded as if he wanted Yvonne to consider it carefully, or he would have to

take action against her.

"Are you threatening me?" Yvonne naturally interpreted the hidden meaning behind his words.

Eddie denied her statement with a genial smile, "No. I just want you to consider this matter seriously. Are you sure

you don't want to work with me anymore?"

Yvonne sized him up and waited for him to continue.

"You know where I live and so many of my secrets. What makes you think that you can come and go as you please?

Because of your family?"

She narrowed her eyes as she scrutinized him as something brewed in her head. Then, she snorted derisively, "At

least I have a home, and you have nothing."

He is nothing but a loser, and he dares to threaten me?! The audacity…

Eddie was amazed that she could get under his skin so quickly, but he was not the slightest bit intimidated by her

threats. He had nothing to lose at this point.

He had already made the necessary preparations, so he felt confident. He merely gave her a once-over and said

gravely, "You're welcome to try."

She didn't say anything in return. Then, he suggested with a smirk, "Perhaps, you can reconsider your decision. We

have many common goals, after all. All of which you can't achieve alone."

She remained as still as a statue as she stood frozen at the spot.

When Eddie was satisfied with her reaction, or lack thereof, he turned to Brandon and said, "See Miss Kepler off. All

those who come to me are my honorable guests."

Brandon immediately gestured toward her and led the way, but she blatantly ignored his presence. "No, thanks."

Who did they think they were to invite her as a guest? Upstart trash.

Although he no longer respected her, he smiled politely with slightly bared teeth. "This is part of my job."

The moment Yvonne took in the two men's out-of-character actions, she hesitated. Why does Eddie look so cocky?

Does he have something under his sleeves? Is that why he doesn't need me anymore?
