Life at the Top

Chapter 2400

In reality, as early as a few days ago, what Benita did in Bashra had already reached Bardot.

Everyone knew that Benita, the eldest daughter of the Rothschilds, was stirring up trouble in Qari recently.

Among them, Benita’s reckless behavior left a deep impression on them. She was the person in charge of this attack, which was in line with her past personality.

Solander’s little trick did not elude Anita’s cognition.

“It seems that Mr. Solander also has a lot of opinions on the Rothschilds,” Anita whispered, his voice was inaudible.

Upstairs in the mosque, Benita was fleeing while retreating under Edmund’s protection.

At this moment, she had put on a black veil to conceal her identity.

She understood that the most urgent task now was to escape from this place as soon as possible. No one could save her if she was caught. Even her family would abandon her mercilessly. After all, even if the Rothschilds were powerful, they would not want to bear the charge of provoking international disputes.

Furthermore, the countries involved this time were not only weak and small countries like Qari, but also traditional allies of the United States such as the United Kingdom and Germany.

“Damn it, they better not let me find out who betrayed me. Otherwise, I will teach them a severe lesson!”

Benita mumbled angrily while retreating quickly.

By now, she had roughly understood what had happened.

Unsurprisingly, her plan had been noticed long before this, but the other party kept silent just so she could fall into their trap. Then, when Benita’s side thought that they had gained control of the overall situation and were ready to act, the other party would fish in troubled waters and put Benita at a disadvantage.

In reality, the initial firefight in the mosque was not aimed at the guests in the lobby, but the group Edmund brought.

The mysterious force first attacked Edmund’s men in an ambush in the church, making them think that their plan had been exposed, causing them to launch their attack in advance.

After that, the mysterious force did not focus on the firefight with Edmund’s people but immediately sent people to ‘cover’ Kant and other members of the five major families to divert the calamity.

“Miss, there is a secret passage here. If we go down here, we can pass through the tunnel below and escape quickly.”

Edmund led Benita to a stone gate with a look of excitement on his face. As long as they walked through this tunnel, they would be safe. There was also joy on Benita’s face.

Everything would be over as long as they could escape. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

At this time, there was a sudden gunshot as the sparks of bullets appeared on the ground under their feet.

“Put down your weapons. We won’t kill you if you hand us your weapons!”

Edmund raised his head upon hearing this, and a Somerlander face appeared in front of him.

“It’s you!” He spotted Moana crawling over with his men right in front of him.

Edmund had previously fought Moana while he was under Yves’ leadership.

Moana had left a deep impression on him at the time, so now, even though Moana was wearing a mask, he still recognized Moana with just a glance. Although Benita had never met Moana face to face before, she could guess Moana’s identity instantly.

Other than Anita’s men, who else from Somerland would be here?

By now, the truth was revealed.

It was Anita this entire time!

“You’re dead!”

Benita, who was in a rage, could not think of anything else now. She only wanted to kill everyone related to Anita quickly to take out her hatred. Yet, at this time, Moana stunned her with his words.

“Miss Benita, my boss told me before coming here that if you don’t want to die, he can make a deal with you.”

Now that there were other people around, it would not be appropriate for Moana to call Anita by name as usual, so he chose to vaguely referred to him as ‘Boss’.
