Female Novel
Chapter 2025
“Yes, Boss." The bodyguard took the potion from Ray and entered the cellar.
Vivian looked at them with confusion. The bodyguard had entered the cellar, but they did not intend togo in. She thought of following them into the cellar to see what was going on. She asked, "Ray, why areyou standing here?"
"Nothing." Ray shook his head.
Vivian replied when she saw this, "I'd like to go in."
Ray stopped her and said, "No, you can't."
Vivian frowned and looked at him. "What's wrong?"
"He's naked now. What are you going to do there?" said Ray. He had no intention of seeing that man'snaked body, not to mention letting Vivian be exposed to that sight.
"I didn't know..." Vivian paused when she heard that. There was an awkward expression on her face.
Ten minutes later, Hansen walked out of the cellar. He could barely hide the excited expression on hissquare-jawed face. He even forgot to put down the towel in his hand. "Boss, there is one."
"Make it clear." Ray felt in his bones that there was a tattoo on that man when he saw Hansen'sreaction.
It seemed like Luke got it right.
"There's a tattoo hidden on his lower back. It showed on his skin once I wiped it with the potion."Hansen took a deep breath and reported everything that happened to Ray.
Luke frowned, then he lifted his head and exchanged glances with Ray. He was from the Island ofDespair, indeed.
"That man." Ray hesitated.
"Boss, he has his clothes on now." Hansen knew what Ray was trying to avoid after years of followinghim.
"Come on. Let's go in and take a look." Ray took the lead.
Luke maneuvered the wheelchair and intended to follow Ray in too. Luca noticed that and quietly cameover to push the wheelchair in.
Luke did not stop her.novelbin
Vivian followed them into the cellar too.
The moment the man who was tied up saw Ray walking in, he began to go crazy. “Kill me! Why are youtying me up here? Just kill me!"
Ray frowned. How did the man who was mocking and provoking him just now suddenly change intoanother person?
Hansen, who was standing beside, said in a low voice, "Boss, he's been acting like this since I foundout about the tattoo. Perhaps it's because he failed to sow discord between us and knows that there'sno way he can go back now. That's why he wants to die."
It quickly became clear to Luca when she heard what Hansen said.
The man in front of her was not here to take her away.
She thought that Abel must have deliberately sent his men to sow discord between the underworldorganizations here, trying to ruin the current stable situation. Abel would be standing behind and onlystep out to take advantage of the situation once they fought with each other.
When the man realized that he had failed the mission and exposed his organization, he went crazy.
Luca pursed her lips and thought to herself that there was no need for him to react this way. The worstthing would be him losing his life.
The man behaved this way only after his organization was exposed. Luca thought that Abel might bemanipulating something more than just the man himself.
Most of the people on the Island of Despair now were taken by Abel and his men back then. Some ofthem were closely related.
That was why the man acted this way.
Luca felt sorry for the man who was almost going mad in front of her. She also felt sympathetic for theothers on the Island of Despair.
Although some of them volunteered to join them, there was a reason behind it. They were abandonedby society, and they could no longer live with the law. That was why they volunteered to join the Islandof Despair, it was to seek asylum.
However, most of them did not volunteer to join the organization.
Those who were capable would probably be valued, but the missions assigned to them were evenmore dangerous. No one could guarantee their safety, so all they had was themselves.
Those who were not good enough would be at the lowest level of the hierarchy on the Island ofDespair. They got bullied and were forced to make sacrifices.
"Kill me! Don't you have the guts? Just kill me!" The man's eyes reddened, and his eyes were bulging.He looked pretty insane.
Ray ignored the man and said to Luke, "Why don't we take a look at the tattoo?"
"Sure." Luke nodded. Although he had yet to see the pattern of the tattoo, with the knowledge that thetattoo only showed up after wiping the skin with the potion, he was able to determine that it was thesymbol of the Island of Despair.
"Take a photo of the tattoo," Ray ordered.
"Yes, Boss." Hansen picked up his phone and walked toward the man.
"Back off. Get away from me." The man looked at Hansen's phone. He flew into a rage as he movedhis hands and legs. However, his hands and legs were tied up. He was unable to break himself free nomatter how he moved them. The clinking sound of the chain and steel bar colliding against each other
was ear-piercing.
Hansen pressed his palm on the man's head and pushed it down so that the man could not struggle.Then, he quickly took photos of the tattoo.
Then, he handed the phone to Ray and said, “Boss, these are the photos."
Ray glanced at them. There was a slight difference compared to the previous tattoo that representedpeople from the Island of Despair, but it was almost the same.
"Is this the Island of Despair?" Ray handed the phone to Luke.
Luke glanced at the photo. The tattoo on the man was exactly the same as the one on impostorBianca.
"Yes."
After Ray got his confirmation, he turned to look at the crazy man and asked, "Everything that's beenhappening lately was caused by the Island Of Despair?"
The man stopped struggling and remained silent with hatred in his eyes.
"Who's the boss of the Island of Despair now?" Ray continued to ask.
"I don't know. I have no idea what you're talking about. Kill me, kill me!" The man went crazy again.
Ray kept the phone in his pocket and said, "It seems like we'll have to investigate this."
Luke looked at the man, then frowned and reminded him, "The Island of Despair is good atmanipulating people with their drug. Try to ask as many questions as you can now. Even though yourmen didn't beat him up, he'll probably die soon."
"That's cruel." Ray frowned.
"That's the Island of Despair," Luke reminded him.
He had been taken away by the people of Island of Despair before. If it were not for Kassy, who fell inlove with him, he would probably have to face the endless torture and drugs that could manipulate him.If it were through his own efforts, it would not have been easy for him to escape.
Despite the fact that Kassy fell for him, they used drugs and hypnotized him to make him surrenderhimself to the organization. It was to make him forget his true identity and become a pawn of the Islandof Despair.
Ray nodded and replied, "I got it. You may head downstairs to get some rest first."
Vivian heard him and said immediately, "Yes. It's two hours till dawn. You've suffered enough fortonight. Let me bring you upstairs. Get some rest first, then you can have your breakfast."
Luke knew Ray wanted to interrogate the man alone. Hence, he left first.
He did not expect such a thing to happen today, and it directly verified his speculation.
Someone had really reestablished the Island of Despair, and that man was very ambitious. He intendedto mess up the Russian underworld forces and make this place his stronghold to do his monkeybusinesses.
Luca noticed that Luke agreed to leave, so she pushed his wheelchair and left the cellar with him.
Vivian could not stand to see those bloody scenes, so she followed behind Luca and left together.
The following day.
The news that Ray's villa was broken into spread and reached the ears of various organizations.
