Chapter 306: Cooperation
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Retlin was in a state of shock, but he pretended to be calm on the surface.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but if you insist that it’s valuable, that’s fine. After all, it’s our family heirloom.”
Edwin couldn’t help but laugh when he heard Retlin’s words.
“So, Mr. Retlin’s shamelessness can be inherited,” said Edwin with a chuckle.
Retlin’s face turned green and white at Edwin’s words. What did he mean by that? Was he mocking him?
“No matter how valuable my things are, they are my family heirloom. I’m not wrong to take them back, right?” Retlin couldn’t help but be angry.
Caroline continued, “You didn’t do anything wrong. It’s your way of thinking that’s wrong. No matter what it is, Jeffrey has already lost it to me, so it’s mine. If you want to take it from me, you have to pay me something.”
“What do you want?” Retlin asked.
Caroline was very clear about the use of the ring. It was definitely not a family heirloom like what Retlin had said. The reason why Retlin wanted to take the ring back was very simple.
The ring was actually a key that could open a treasure vault.
There was a very important thing in this treasure vault. It was precisely because of this that the treasure vault that was originally filled with rare treasures was emptied.
So far, the purpose of this treasure vault was to store that important thing.
The item belonged to Jeffrey, so taking it back wasn’t a big deal.
But the problem was that the person in front of him was Retlin, Retlin of the Shwell family.
She hadn’t pulled the Shwell family into her line of battle yet, so how could she give the ring to Retlin so easily?
She really had to thank Jeffrey for being able to meet Retlin so easily.
That was right, the thing hidden in this treasure vault was the thing Jeffrey had developed the biological weapon!
“Miss Caroline, you know what that thing is. That thing must not appear in this world.”
“What are you talking about?” Caroline decided to play dumb.
She did not intend to use the biological weapon. On the contrary, this thing must be destroyed.
Even if it fell into the hands of the Shwell family, it couldn’t be said to be well guarded. It had to be destroyed.
The current Retlin would not use biological weapons, but what about the future Retlin? Or rather, the descendants of Retlin. Could they guarantee that they would not use biological weapons?
No, perhaps some warmongers wanted to use this biological weapon.
Or perhaps, he had to prepare for the worst. The Shwell family would decline in the future, and nothing could be preserved, including this biological weapon. Of course, all of this could happen in the future. Caroline didn’t like to bet on the future.
She preferred to have everything in her own hands and kill all the bad factors in the future in the cradle.
“Ms. Caroline, I think I’ve already shown my most sincere side. You can tell me what you want. That ring is my family heirloom, and I must take it back,” Retlin said.
“Alright, Mr. Retlin, we’ll be straightforward. You should know what I want,” Caroline said lightly.
Given the current situation, if Jeffrey could guess her identity, so could anyone else.
Those four families were not to be trifled with. Back then, she was framed by them and fell into this situation.
“I know, but I don’t think we can work together,” Retlin said.
Although the Shwell family wasn’t one of the four families, it didn’t mean that they could work together.
“But Mr. Retlin, have you forgotten that those four families have extended their hands to the Shwell family?” Caroline asked.
Upon hearing this, Retlin’s heart skipped a beat.
“If I remember correctly, Corwin Adelo is one of Luo Ling Pritz’s men,” Retlin said.
At this point, Caroline had nothing to hide.
“Mr. Retlin, you’re mistaken. Corwin Adelo is one of them,” said Caroline.
After hearing Caroline’s words, Retlin shuddered. If Corwin Adelo wasn’t a member of Luo Ling Pritz, then he was a traitor..
