"You're overthinking."
Lincoln replied firmly, "Riz Corporation is very powerful, but they won't offend the Lierger family"
"Why did Riz Corporation help that Lolatic to check Derila's identity then?"
Layla questioned.
"Do they know the Lierger family is watching over Derila? Her relationship with Daemon has not been disclosed, and the Lierger family has always been keeping a low profile.They rarely make any public appearance..."
"One encounter is enough for them to know about it" a logical Lincoln replied.
"Once Riz Corporation know Derila has the backing of Daemon, they won't intervene in this matter, making it a personal grudge of that Lolatic.That Lolatic is all alone, so he can't hurt Derila.What I'm worried about is that she'd escaped again impulsively and showed him mercy due to her guilt for Candice."
"I need to remind her again."
Layla was a tad fretful.
"Wait until tomorrow.She's probably asleep now"
Lincoln responded.
"I'm done with the things here.I will head back as soon as possible.Tell us about Derila and Daemon.If he is serious about their relationship, then I think it's good for them to be a couple."
"Nah, how could a person like him know how to love? I think he's just playing around, craving a sense of novelty..."
Anthony quickly replied.
"Besides, he is also dangerous.He crashed into Derila with his car in M Nation, and she was shot because of him..."
"Oh, really?" Lincoln asked.
"I think so, but I don't know about the details..."
"I know he's really dangerous.He's not someone suitable for Derila, and she doesn't like him.She's always been thinking about escaping.Daemon's keeping her under house arrest..."
"All right.Let's talk more about this when we meet."
With that, Lincoln and Layla ended the video call.
Unsettled, Anthony handled the pressing matters on hand and hurriedly rushed back home to see Lincoln.
The former felt there was a need for him to tell Lincoln and Layla about every mistreatment Daemon had inflicted on Derila.
Besides, he wanted to rush to Aymo City to keep Derila safe.
Currently, Derila was fast asleep, not noticing that a figure had sneaked into the villa.
As agile as a monkey, that person jumped over the wall of the yard before he leaped and reached the balcony on the second floor.
Just as he was about to barge into Derila's room, a cold voice came from downstairs.
"Who's there?"
With that, several beams of bright light shone onto the person as two bodyguards went after him swiftly.
Realizing that he had been discovered before he could take action, he had no choice but to leave.
The two bodyguards chased after him instantly, and the female bodyguard, Samantha, quickly rushed into the room to check on Derila.
Upon seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, the two bodyguards heaved a sigh of relief.
Nevertheless, the vigilant bodyguards did not leave the room anymore.
One of them kept careful watch for possible danger on the balcony while the other one stood guard behind the door of the room.
Half an hour later, the subordinates who chased after the suspicious person came back to report to Sloan.
"Sloan, that person escaped."
"Check the surveillance footage, and see who it was."
Sloan ordered.
"Understood."
"As for the others, be on full alert and keep your guard up.Protect Ms.Feroma"
"Noted."
After making those arrangements, Sloan reported that night's condition to Harrison and Charles.
The three of them exchanged information through a voice call.
Charles was puzzled when he got to know of the incident.
"This is weird.Who on earth wanted to attack Ms.Feroma? Could it be someone sent by Frank or the three great families?"
"If it was them, they wouldn't just send one person."
Harrison was calm and collected.
"Was it Ms.Feroma's enemy?"
"How could Ms.Feroma have any enemies?"
Charles found it odd.
"She's just a doctor, and her identity has always been well-concealed."
"Right..."
"Sloan, keep Ms.Feroma safe.I'll send a few people there." Harrison said.
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Sloan arranged for more people to scan the surroundings of the villa, ensuring their defense was foolproof.
