The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Riandy Heburn had just ordered someone to clean up the loose ends.

He then received a notification from the police station that Mr. Bonette had raided a Heburn Family stronghold and, coincidentally, the place held cargo he was smuggling for Zevaney Kingsley, which got seized by Mr. Bonette too.

This batch of goods was no ordinary matter.

It belonged to the Independent Continent Kingsleys Family.

Riandy Heburn stood up abruptly when he heard about the raid, nearly knocking over the bottle in front of him. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"What’s going on!"

Riandy Heburn’s voice was full of anger, extremely irritated: "How did Mr. Bonette find our stronghold and directly seize the cargo? Why didn’t I hear any whispers beforehand."

Beijing is such a small circle.

With the power of the Independent Continent behind the Heburn Family, everyone in Beijing’s top circle knows that they’re usually not to be messed with.

It’s not that they can’t be provoked.

Nobody wants to mess with the mighty Independent Continent.

Operating on the "less is more" principle, the Heburn Family has been smooth sailing and rarely has issues, even as their actions have become increasingly extreme over the years.

Riandy Heburn didn’t expect when something did happen, it hit him right where it hurt, catching him off guard.

With the cargo seized, retrieving it would be troublesome now.

"We also don’t know what happened. Mr. Bonette personally led the raid, discovered the cargo, and then it was detained. We did mention you to Mr. Bonette, but he just didn’t give a damn this time, took the cargo away regardless..."

The small-time informant passing on the message didn’t dare lift his head, speaking with utmost caution, fearing the rage would turn on him.

"You said mentioning me didn’t work?"

"Yes, we mentioned the Heburn Family then."

"..." Riandy Heburn’s face was grim, silent for a moment.

Normally speaking, Mr. Bonette should have known it was a Heburn Family stronghold and shouldn’t touch it. Even if Mr. Bonette raided the place, he would have notified him, not immediately seize the goods!

Mr. Bonette was acting too unusually this time!

Moreover, the Heburn Family’s strongholds are extremely discreet, hardly anyone knows.

How did Mr. Bonette know it was their stronghold and lead a raid as if he knew it was their territory from the beginning?

Purely seeking trouble.

But with the Independent Continent Kingsleys Family behind them, is Mr. Bonette insane?

Riandy Heburn was quite irritated, the more he thought about it the more vexed he became, pacing back and forth with furrowed brows.

The place Mr. Bonette raided was one of their critically important strongholds, and this loss was inestimable.

Riandy Heburn was already thinking about ways to reclaim the cargo.

That’s when someone burst in.

"Mr. Heburn, someone’s been left at the front door."

Soon, the person dumped at the door was brought in.

A man as thin as Monkey with his left wrist unnaturally bent and hanging, clearly with a broken wrist bone, sweating heavily from pain, his face pale.

Upon seeing Riandy, he brightened up and immediately whispered painfully: "Mr., Mr. Heburn, Nathalie Quinlan asked me to deliver a message to you."

Nathalie Quinlan?

Riandy Heburn thought for quite a while before remembering who it was.

He didn’t care much: "What did she say?"

The man’s voice weakened further, clearly lacking the courage to speak, yet forced to muster it: "She said this matter isn’t over!"

Riandy Heburn froze, immediately piecing it together.

Nathalie Quinlan sent someone to tell him the matter’s not over. That is to say, the reason Mr. Bonette raided their stronghold was this... Nathalie Quinlan?!
