Chapter 126: Discovery

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Caroline was able to survive the ever-changing battlefield and grow to become the number one commander of the military. Her skills and senses were undoubtedly extremely outstanding. Thus, as soon as she got close to her villa, she sharply sensed that the defense formation outside had changed. Furthermore, the defense had become tighter.

She thought it was because it was late at night and the danger factor was high, and Edwin had ordered more guards to increase the defense, so she didn’t pay much attention.

However, she suddenly heard some subtle but strange movements behind her, which immediately alerted her. If she was alone, she would choose to hide and not make a move. She would first hide herself and find an opportunity to find out the situation before dealing with the person.

However, the current situation was not quite the same. From what she could sense, there were more than ten or twenty people guarding the villa. To be able to get into such a tight encirclement under such circumstances, it meant that this person’s skills were not simple.

For the safety of Danika and Eva in the villa, Caroline wasn’t afraid of exposing herself. She decided to make a sound to attract the attention of the bodyguards around her.

The moment she spoke, she had already hidden herself in the middle of the wall, using the wall as a cover. At the same time, she threw out a strong flashlight, which lit up the area as if it was daytime. It ensured that once the person hiding in the dark came out, he would be completely exposed to the strong light.

“Since you’re already here, there’s no need to hide anymore.” Caroline held her gun and was on guard.

A small sound came from behind her. Caroline took out a mirror and looked out. Who was it that had the ability to break in? However, she did not expect to see a familiar face in the reflection of the mirror.

Caroline kept the mirror in shock. She looked at her outfit and fell silent.

“Alright, I’ve come out as you requested.” Edwin was also amused and shocked. He heard from his subordinate that he saw Caroline getting out of a taxi from the traffic light surveillance camera in front of the block. She was probably going home.

Upon hearing that she had returned safely, Edwin’s heart finally relaxed. However, he still wanted to see Caroline for himself so that he could go home in peace. Thus, he got out of the car and hid among the bodyguards. The moment he saw Caroline’s swift figure, Edwin’s breathing became irregular. His hand unconsciously touched the branch beside him. He didn’t expect that such a small movement would be noticed by Caroline, who was not far away.

One could see how sensitive Caroline’s five senses were.

Caroline heard the helplessness in Edwin’s voice and knew that her disguise had failed. She kept her gun in her pocket and walked out of the wall with her hands raised.

As if he was surrounded and had no choice but to surrender, Edwin shook his head and waved his hand to signal the bodyguards who were tightly protecting him to retreat.

“May I ask why you are here?” Caroline was indeed quite curious. When she was on the phone just now, she heard that he was dealing with the daily affairs at Anderson’s manor. In the end, she went out for a while, and this man actually came to her house in the middle of the night. He even hid in the dark. She had no idea what he was up to.

She thought about it and there was only one possibility. “Did I expose something during my phone call just now?”

“It’s the sound of a car,” Edwin explained. “I heard the sound of a car that shouldn’t have been there.”

Caroline could only shrug helplessly. She didn’t expect that a car would come out of such a remote place in the middle of the night in just a few minutes, and it was even heard by Edwin.

It could only be said that Edwin’s observation skills were quite impressive to be able to find something unusual from these tiny clues.

The two of them looked at each other in silence. After all, this scene was a little too strange. At this moment, the strong light and fire suddenly ran out of power. The light disappeared and darkness returned between the two.

Caroline heaved a sigh of relief. After all, they couldn’t see each other’s expressions clearly. This way, the awkwardness would be reduced. She asked Edwin, “Ahem, don’t you have anything to ask me?”

“If I say I really want to know, can I ask you?” Edwin was no longer like before, saying that he was going to wait for Caroline. He finally showed some offensive intentions.

Because just now, the worry and nervous waiting for unknown reasons were too torturous..
