She wa not at all good at strategy or power struggles.
What she was good at was just healing and saving people.
Now this matter, she felt overwhelmed to deal with it, even, she didn't know exactly
what was the right thing to do.
At this time, she thought of her auntie Layla.
If her auntie Layla and Uncle Lincoln were around. They could have taught her and
analyzed things for her, but they both went off to live in seclusion in the deep
mountains.
She didn't know what happened to them now.
Derila was filled with complicated thoughts and spent the ten hour flight in this
muddled manner.
When she got off the plane, she immediately turned on her phone to see if Daemon
had called her.
Unfortunately, there was none.
Not even a text message.
Harrison, Charles didn't call either.
This time, Daemon was really angry and would probably not care about her anymore.
Was this a breakup?
Derila sighed and was about to put away her phone, but at that moment, Anthony's
call came, and she hurriedly answered it, "Anthony."
"Derila, is there any news about Auntie Layla and Uncle Lincoln?"
"Didn't you say that they might have gone to live in seclusion in the big mountains? I
asked Charles yesterday and he told me that they have been without a signal, so they
should have gone to a remote place."
"They did say before that they were going to go to a big mountain to live in seclusion,
but I just got word that they seem to have been tracked by Riz Corporation's people
before, Uncle Lincoln was captured and Auntie Layla escaped, and now I don't know
their whereabouts."
"What???" Derila was stunned, "How could this happen?"
After a pause, she muttered to herself, "Charles didn't tell me this, did he not find out or
did he intentionally hide it?"
"Probably didn't find out." Anthony heard her words, "After all, the news from the Riz
Corporation side is sealed very tightly, it's normal that they can't find out, I have some
clues because I've been in contact with them, why don't you ask that Charles again?
See if you can help find your auntie."
"Okay, I'll call him right away."
"Aren't you at Daemon's place?" Anthony asked suspiciously, "Why do you still need to
call?"
"I…" Derila was about to speak when Helish rang out on the radio and Anthony
instantly heard it, "You're not going to Danontand again, are you?"
"Hmm." Derila knew he couldn't hide it.
"Derila, can you be more sober? You're not a saviour, you can't save everyone, it's
good enough that you can manage the orphanage and help your auntie Layla and Uncle
Lincoln.
Auntie warned you before, right? William's side of things is very complicated, not
something you can interfere with, you shouldn't have treated him in the first place, and
then even more so, you shouldn't have gone to Danontand, and now you're still…"
"Okay, okay, you stop." Derila interrupted him, "I understand all these reasons, but
things have come to this point, I am already riding a tiger, William and more than eighty
people in his castle are all poisoned, I can't just see death and not save them."
"That's not something you can save." Anthony was anxious, "Go back to Daemon now
and don't get involved in this matter."
"Already involved, can't run away from the battle." Derila sighed, "Alright, I won't
talk to you anymore, I'll contact Charles first and ask about my auntie Layla."
Anthony: "You're really going to kill me in a hurry."
"Hang up."
Derila hung up the phone straight away, ready to call Charles, but on second
thought, she and Daemon had already broken up, wasn't it not too good to make his
henchmen now?
But it was urgent, so she couldn't care less.
Derila hurriedly dialed Charles's number, and the call was quickly answered.
