Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Fortunately, there were still many young people in the Shwell family who knew how to surf the internet. Thus, one of the younger generations, Jeffrey’s older cousin, Collins, saw the photo and recognized Caroline’s face that was extremely similar to Luo Ling’s.
Initially, Collins thought that this was just an internet celebrity who looked similar, so he was a little surprised and threw the matter aside.
The reason why he noticed this photo again was because he received a secret message a day later.
It wasn’t that the Shwell family was powerless to resist and could only endure being bullied. Therefore, when they knew that someone was going to attack them, they were on guard and retaliated at the same time.
On this day, Collins received a message from his subordinates who were in charge of keeping an eye on the enemy. They seemed to be somewhat concerned about this internet celebrity who looked very similar to Luo Ling, and had already made a few moves to probe her.
Collins was a sensitive person. If there was nothing strange about this internet celebrity named Caroline, it was impossible for those people to care so much about her appearance alone.
Therefore, he went to investigate and found out that Caroline was the daughter of the Lambert family, the future mistress of the Anderson family.
Her appearance, coupled with her past experiences, made it easy for people to suspect her. With the principle of making mistakes rather than letting them go, Collins told Retlin about this.
As a soldier, Retlin admired Luo Ling’s outstanding abilities and felt sorry for her defeat and death.
Therefore, after hearing what Collins said, he looked at it with interest.
The old man didn’t know anything about transmigration, rebirth, or reincarnation, but after seeing Caroline’s photo, he instinctively felt something was wrong.
However, the matter of her rebirth was too unusual, so they didn’t think of it in such a mysterious way. They only guessed that there might be some connection between Caroline and Luo Ling.
Therefore, atter Retlin tinisned talking about the important matters, he suddenly thought of this matter and said this. Although he was concerned about it verbally, he was secretly testing the waters.
Retlin did not deny what Edwin said when he saw that Edwin seemed to know everything. He only sighed, “Time makes people grow old. It’s the world of you young people now.”
In Edwin’s heart, whether Retlin’s words were intentional or not, it made him more vigilant.
He said a few more perfunctory words before the two of them hung up.
Oleg, who had been listening to the whole process, looked at him worriedly. “Sir, are we really going to get involved?”
Although the military supplies business was indeed very profitable, even a veteran military family like the Shwell family had to give up so much profit to seek protection. Coupled with the disappearance of the Pritz family some time ago, this was enough to show that the military world was not peaceful now.
If they still had to take a step in at this time, the risk would probably be greater than the benefits.
However, compared to his worries, Edwin looked calm. “They’ve already handed the meat to our mouths. Why don’t we eat it?”
It had to be said that the deal proposed by Retlin was equivalent to someone giving Edwin a pillow when he was sleepy.
After knowing Jeffrey’s true identity, Edwin had already suspected that Caroline had something to do with the fire in the laboratory.
And the reason why she was working so hard to get close to Jeffrey was most likely because she wanted to find an opportunity to get close to Retlin, the current head of the Shwell family.
Ever since he had confirmed Caroline’s identity and understood her mission, Edwin had secretly vowed to become her most powerful blade and backing.
The Anderson family was a family that had flourished for more than a hundred years. It was impossible for them to not have any influence in the army. However, military power was too important. The core power had always been firmly held in the hands of a few forces.
Therefore, the Anderson family did not make much progress in this area. They had always drifted away from the core power, and at most, it was a small matter. Maintaining this situation would not provide much help to Caroline.
Therefore, during this period of time, in addition to steadily developing the Anderson family’s business, they also began to seek opportunities to infiltrate their own forces into the army and seek more development.
At this time, Retlin took the initiative to propose cooperation, which was exactly what he wanted..
