Chapter 1216

An Understated Dominance by Marina Vittori Chapter 1216Trent and Kate stood beside him meekly. They didn’t dare to make any noise, and they appeared pitiful.

When they were captured by the Dark Panther Cavalry, they were released in just two days. From what they could deduce, Tylermust have convinced the Scarlet Warrior to let them go.

This was enough to prove that they had placed their loyalty on the right person. “Our engagement is tomorrow. Is everythingready?” Tyler finally spoke after finishing one round of chess.

“Well...” Trent's expression froze when he heard that, and he instinctively looked at his daughter.“Tyler, we almost succeeded. But Dustin Rhys, that bastard, ruined our plan and captured us.” Kate cursed as she explained.

“That’s enough. | don’t want to hear excuses.” Tyler threw them an icy glance. He continued, “I want to see results, not theprocess. According to our deal, you'll get me the treasure map, and I'll give you my support to rise to power.

“After that, we'll unite our families by marriage and achieve greatness together. I’ve held up my end of the promise. What aboutyou?”

“Tyler, we tried our best. Could you please give us a few more days? | promise I'll get the treasure map for you!” Trent saidconfidently.

“That’s right, Tyler. With a few more days, we can definitely fulfill our promise to you!” Kate nodded.“| hate people who can’t keep their word. The deal was to get me the treasure map before the engagement.

“If you can’t do that, tomorrow's engagement will be canceled. From then on, we'll have nothing to do with each other.” Tyler saidwithout any expression.

“Huh?” Trent and Kate paled when they heard that. The situation in the Harmon family was very volatile as everyone was readyto pounce on each other to gain power.

Without the Grant family’s protection, they would lose the dominance they had just secured very soon.novelbin

“Tyler! It can’t be canceled!” Kate was a little anxious. She quickly reassured Tyler. “Please give us another chance. We candefinitely get the treasure map!”

She finally got the chance to marry into an extremely wealthy family and become the wife of a general. She wouldn't give it up soeasily. She’d do anything to defend her current status regardless of the cost.

“Talk is cheap. | want results.” Tyler replied calmly. “You still have tonight. Don’t say | didn’t warn you when you can’t produce thetreasure map before the engagement party tomorrow.”

“Not a problem! We'll get to it right away!” Kate nodded eagerly. She was left with no choice; she must gamble.

“Alright, then. Don’t disappoint me.” Tyler waved his hand to dismiss them. “Of course.” Trent and Kate didn’t hesitate and quicklyleft.

After they left the study, Trent was a little distressed. He lamented, “Kate, we only have tonight. How are we going to get thetreasure map?” They had. tried so many ways but to no avail. It'd be more difficult now.“Dad! We can’t keep playing nice. It’s time we bring out the real guns. If we miss this opportunity, we'll never live this down.” Kate

said with a vicious gaze.

“The real guns? What do you mean?” Trent suddenly felt uneasy. “We'll abduct and torture Uncle Hector. We'll force him tosurrender the treasure map.” Kate said, looking murderous.

“Torture?” Trent frowned.He continued, “Kate, he’s your uncle and our family. It’s a bad idea.”

Even though they had been in a feud, no one had crossed the line. They were brothers, after all. He didn’t have the heart toactually kill them.

“Dad! We're running out of time! If we don’t do it this way, we'll never get the treasure map!”

With a terrifying expression, Kate continued, “Every man for himself! We're this close to succeeding. We can’t let all our effortsgo in vain. “The ends justify the means. This is our only chance. We have to give it all we’ve got!”

Trent fell silent when he heard that. After a while, he nodded heavily. “It’s for your sake and for the sake of our future. We'll haveto disown our family!
