Mr. Sterling, Mrs. Sterling is Multifaceted!-Chapter 267: To Make Ethan Sterling an Enemy of All the Conglomerates

Chapter 267: Chapter 267: To Make Ethan Sterling an Enemy of All the Conglomerates

Hearing this, Seraphina Redgrave couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Does my plan even matter anymore? Now I’m already here, I can’t escape from your grasp. Maybe I’ll be dead by tomorrow, so what’s the difference if I say it or not?"

"..."

The man remained silent.

She was indeed hard to deal with, her mind worked too fast, there was no way to outsmart her.

"The reason you haven’t killed me yet is to extract some secret evidence about the financial oligarchs from me to destroy, isn’t it?"

Seraphina Redgrave said steadily.

"So the words you said before being taken were to save your own life?"

The man finally understood that with Seraphina Redgrave, beating around the bush was useless. The most direct approach was necessary. He cocked the gun in his hand and then asked, "Do you have the evidence?"

"I’ll only talk to Miles Harrington."

Seraphina Redgrave showed no fear.

"Do you think you can meet the President just because you want to? It seems you overestimate yourself," the man said, pressing the gun hard against her forehead.

"Alright, then let’s see what the rumors outside turn into."

Seraphina Redgrave sneered contemptuously.

Unyielding!

No one entering The Directorate has been as arrogant as her!

The man looked gloomy, feeling his dignity was being challenged. His hand moved downwards as he shot her left shoulder decisively and neatly.

"Bang!"

The bullet hit Seraphina Redgrave, causing her to uncontrollably fall backward, her face turned ashen, and the blood from her left shoulder quickly soaked and stained her large garment.

The man’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at Seraphina Redgrave, somewhat surprised. This bullet would make any man scream, yet she, a frail woman, showed no such reaction.

Seraphina Redgrave looked down at the bloody cavity on her left shoulder, tasted iron in her mouth, which came from clenching her teeth to endure the pain, and gently laughed, "Truly, The Directorate is quite skillful."

"Now that it’s like this, can Miles Harrington come to talk to me?"

If not, let’s see what else you have in store.

"..."

The five men exchanged glances, utterly at a loss.

This woman is as ruthless to herself as she is, unlike any previous prisoner.

They couldn’t pry open her mouth.

...

Inside the lavish The Presidential Palace, a giant LCD screen was broadcasting the news—

"The once-famous Sylvia Shaw, during her first speech after submitting her application for parliament, was suddenly revealed to be a fugitive from Veridian Isle, originally named Seraphina Redgrave. Now, our country’s police have subdued Seraphina Redgrave, so everyone need not worry."

"At the same time, Seraphina Redgrave’s actions provoke deeper thoughts. What exactly is her purpose? How can a fugitive act so blatantly? Now, please switch the camera to the Redgrave Family villa and let’s see what’s really going on."

The camera immediately switched, revealing a lifeless villa.

Veridian Isle has once again become a hot topic among the people of A Country.

This once disregarded place is now dominating the trending lists of various software in A Country.

Chloe Quinn and Ryan Sterling sat on the sofa watching TV, Chloe peeling apples and feeding them piece by piece to Ryan.

Ryan Sterling impatiently switched channels, but every channel was reporting on Seraphina Redgrave.

"No wonder this woman was reluctant to leave Ethan Sterling before; turns out she’s from Veridian Isle."

Ryan Sterling swallowed the apple, full of sarcasm.

"I think she overestimated herself, revealing Veridian Isle’s secrets publicly, thinking she could stir up a big noise online, but now what? No one even notices. This record has already been erased."

Chloe gently remarked.

The so-called public opinion is nothing but a toy for the oligarchs. They want the public to see certain things, and that’s all the public can see.

From the moment Seraphina Redgrave’s identity was exposed, all the oligarchs had a common goal, which was to eliminate Seraphina Redgrave and bury this secret forever.

When Selena Quinn walked out of the bedroom, she heard Ryan saying, "No, her purpose isn’t to let the public know this secret, but for self-preservation, to tell all the oligarchs, she wants them to fear her, worry if she really has solid evidence. This girl is indeed smart."

Selena’s eyes flickered.

Self-preservation?

She won’t allow it; this time she wants Seraphina Redgrave dead, to completely deny her the chance to turn the tables again.

"Dad, Mom."

Selena walked down the stairs, greeted the two, then seated herself beside them, respectfully peeling fruit for them.

Chloe nodded to her, then frowned, "I think Ethan Sterling more or less has his heart set on her, might he desperately try to protect that girl?"

"Wouldn’t that be better?"

Ryan displayed an unkind smile, "Ethan Sterling seems to control Z Country’s economic lifeline, is considered the most noble person, but the oligarchs all have their camps; everyone fights for their interests, impossible for them to truly unite."

Selena listened silently.

Ryan tossed the remote aside and continued, "If he’s determined to protect that fugitive from Veridian Isle, and disregards whether it will harm the oligarchs’ interests, then he stands against all the oligarchs in Z Country. Afterwards, the oligarchs will unite against Ethan Sterling, and no matter how strong he is, he can’t fully retreat unscathed."

Selena’s hand paused slightly before looking at Ryan, "Big brother would never do something so foolish for a lowly Veridian Isle woman."

Sterling Group.

It is the largest group in Z Country, controlling more than half of Z Country’s livelihood industries. One could say without Sterling Group, Z Country would regress by decades.

With such financial power, how could Ethan Sterling possibly go against all the oligarchs?

As Selena finished speaking, Ryan kicked Selena hard, annoyed, "Why are you speaking for him? Ethan Sterling has to make mistakes; only when he errs, will Miles Harrington and his people beg me to act."

Only like this, can he regain control of the Sterling Group.

"Selena..."

Chloe looked at Selena displeased. Everyone knew the relationship between the father and son was hostile, so why speak like that?

"..."

Selena was kicked to the ground, her eyes darkened, taking quite a while to recover, clenching her fists, filled with malicious intent.

She thought quite the opposite of Ryan; she wanted to be the most noble woman in Z Country, to become the lady of the Sterling Group, but what if Ethan Sterling lost?

Ethan Sterling was still abroad now, no matter how far-reaching his hand was, it couldn’t extend this far.

All the evidence she had was already given to Miles Harrington, and as the President of Z Country, he would surely consider the big picture and make sure that woman disappears forever!
