King's Awakening

Chapter 427: Chapter 427: Caleb Robert’s Ruthlessness!
“I said, I…” Aurora was so scared that she was frozen in fear, ready to confess everything there and then.

But at this moment, a voice filled with detachment boomed out: “Aurora, you better think carefully before you speak. Don’t even try to drag anyone else into this mess before you die. Otherwise, your family will not be spared either. Did you hear me clearly!?”

The one speaking was none other than Caleb Robert.

Making such a statement undoubtedly carried an immense risk.

If Aurora didn’t understand what he was implying, then all his years of scheming would be thrown into disarray, and he would suffer the same fate as his unsuspecting brother, Lincoln Robert.

Upon hearing his words, Aurora froze. She was sobbing rain-like tears, speaking hurriedly as she wept, “I did it, it was all me. I was jealous of Sana, I couldn’t stand her treatment of the employees, so I had a foolish thought of framing her.

This has nothing to do with anyone else, nor my family, it was me alone, all me…”

After speaking, Aurora seemed to have depleted all her strength, collapsing onto the ground in despair.

She had no other choice, her only concern was to protect her family.

Aurora blamed herself for being beguiled by Caleb Robert and helping him to target Sana.

White Mitchell, who had been listening quietly to Aurora’s words, suddenly shot a menacing look straight at Caleb Robert.

Hisss!

Caleb Robert could barely manage to look back, feeling a sudden rush of panic.

Who was this man that Sana had sought help from?

Why were his eyes so piercing?

Just one look gave him a feeling of discomfort. Even when dealing with Cooper, he didn’t feel such discomfort, except when he faced the heads of the Hundred Year Noble Family. Yet, even then, their looks were nowhere near as scary as White Mitchell’s.

Caleb Robert couldn’t help but draw in a cold breath, quickly averting his eyes, not daring to make eye contact with White Mitchell.

Soon afterward, Aurora and Lincoln Robert, among others, were escorted away by the Northern Territory Command Post. The Robert Group once again regained its calm.

However, the atmosphere in the Robert Group went through a significant shift.

Before this chaos, rumors had been in circulation within the company saying that Sana was nothing more than a rich heiress with no real ability or qualification to handle the business affairs of the company.

However, now everyone had a clear understanding that all of those rumors were carefully orchestrated lies.

Sana Robert was not at all like what the rumors described.

On the contrary, because of Lincoln Robert’s schemes, people started to feel sympathy towards Sana.

Both Lincoln Robert and Caleb Robert had their share of the company’s stocks solely because of Cooper’s goodwill, owing to their shared lineage.

However, they were not satisfied, wanting to take over the entire company.

Poor Sana had to deal with not only external competitors but also continuously guard against her own family members.

The fact that she endured up till now was no small feat.

The staff, realizing their past misjudgments, began to show remorseful expressions towards Sana, their actions expressing their loyalty to her.

Soon enough, what was once a chaotic Robert Group started to recover its standard working state under the efforts of its staff who diligently resumed their work.

Caleb Robert, watching this, was biting his teeth in anger. Unable to express his frustration overtly, he pasted a forced smile on his face, dealing with Sana superficially, and then quickly retired to his office.

Sana then pulled White Mitchell into her office, expressing her gratitude to him profusely.

She was very clear that without White Mitchell’s intervention, she might very well have ended up arrested.

To this, White Mitchell merely smiled and reminded her, “Although Lincoln Robert has been taken care of, there’s still Caleb Robert. His plot failed this time, but he will certainly plan something else in the future. You need to be more vigilant.

Clean up the people around you that need to be cleaned up. Being too indecisive will only harm you.

If you can’t handle it, just let me know, and I will help you to solve it.”

Hearing these words, Sana’s eyes moistened instantly. From her earliest memory, besides her grandfather and parents, White Mitchell was the only person who genuinely cared for her.

If not for knowing that White Mitchell was already married, she wished she could offer herself to him right then and there.

“Don’t worry, I will be careful. I will also do my best to run Robert Group with my abilities,” Sana assured.

White Mitchell nodded, and then left Robert Group.

As White Mitchell left the Robert Group, Caleb Robert was in his office, opening a mysterious website on his phone.

The website was hosted overseas, but it used the language of the Dragon Realm.

This was the website that the Deathz organization used to receive assassination tasks.

The URLs of this website were unique, accessible only to the long-term employers of the Deathz organization. New employers could not access the website without the recommendation of an old employer.

Caleb Robert had pulled many strings to get this URL, foreseeing a situation like this.

Now that there was the interference of White Mitchell around Sana, he found it hard to execute his plan.

So, White Mitchell had to be removed first!

With this thought, Caleb swiftly posted an assassination request on the website, offering a bounty of ten million.

He already had a picture of White Mitchell from the surveillance video and sent it straight away.

Not long after, there was a response from the Deathz organization on the website.

Rejected?!

Caleb was stunned. How was that possible? Wasn’t it said that the Deathz organization didn’t reject any mission? Why was his first assassination request rejected? That was really bad luck.

Unwilling to give up, Caleb clicked on the reason for the rejection: Special period, double the bounty.

Damn it!

Upon seeing the reason for the rejection, Caleb cursed, angry at the greed of the Deathz organization.

To kill a nobody, they actually demanded twenty million?

This was simply worse than robbery!

Caleb was cursing and swearing, but considering the importance of taking over the Robert Group, he bit the bullet and transferred the twenty million via an overseas bank.

Once the money was transferred, the Deathz organization immediately replied on the website: Happy cooperation, results within seven days.
