The words reminded Derila and she murmured, "It can't be from Daemon, it must
be from the President."
"He actually knows my phone number and knows you're with me?" Anthony was
surprised.
"You and Uncle Lincoln just stepped into the territory of Xendale, and you couldn't
escape his sight." Derila's intelligence suddenly came back, "He should also know
that I went back to S Nation with you. So, did he already know that Uncle Lincoln was
going to seek revenge on him? Was that press conference also prepared by him on
purpose? The purpose was to lure Uncle Lincoln into a trap?"
"It's horrible." Anthony felt creeped out, "It feels like all my moves are being watched by
others, every single thing those people do and every single word they say is
purposeful."
"Yes." Derila covered her forehead, "I need to calm down, calm down, I must calm
down, I can't listen to anyone's provocations at this time."
She was now very remorseful, she had been gullible enough to trust the president's wife
in the first place, which was why she had allowed someone to take advantage of the
situation and planted evidence to send her to prison, therefore dragging her aunt and
Sloan to their deaths.
After a matter of wisdom, she could not be so impulsive again.
"Yes." Anthony also nodded his head, "Auntie Layla and Uncle Lincoln both approve of
Daemon's character, which means there's nothing wrong with him, it's just that he's in
an environment and position that can bring danger to those around him."
"That should be the case." Derila tried to calm herself down.
As she was rambling, William called again, so Derila informed him about the
recording and discussed with him about saving Uncle Lincoln.
As soon as William heard it, he immediately said, "Derila, this must be a conspiracy
by the President, you must not believe it, the recording can be edited, and it is easy to
take things out of context.
What's more, even if those words were really spoken by Daemon, it's still a tactic, after
all, when negotiating with your opponent, you can't lose your momentum, he can't just
beg the president to release him in a low voice, right?"
"You're right to say so." Derila listened in, "But what now? Is there any other way to
save Uncle Lincoln?"
"There's no way, just wait." William said.
"How long do we have to wait like this?" Derila was anxious, "Something has
already happened to aunt Layla because of me, I can't let anything happen to Uncle
Lincoln, forget it, I'll think of a way to save him myself."
"Derila, you mustn't act without permission, you mustn't be impulsive." William
hurriedly advised, "Last time, Auntie and Sloan were too impulsive and that caused the
tragedy, if they could calm down and wait a bit longer, Charles would have led the men
to rescue you.
Charles and the others are very familiar with the layout and organs of the underground
prison and could have prevented the tragedy.
I know you don't like to hear these words, but I still have to tell you that although you
have a lot of magical skills, you will always be no match for the military department.
The whole situation is now very unfavorable to Mr.Lierger. The president has already
gained the upper hand, and if this battle ends up being won by the president and
Mr.Lierger loses, not to mention Uncle Lincoln, you and Anthony, and maybe even the
orphans, will all be in trouble.
I'm not being alarmist, this really isn't an exaggeration at all. You have to understand
that once something happens to Mr.Lierger, the president will eliminate everyone
associated with him, leaving no one behind, including Aunt Norah and the maids.
When that happens, the Lierger family will be bleeding to death, and you and your
loved ones and friends will not be spared."
"Uh…" Hearing these words, Derila was stunned, she had thought about what the
consequences would be if Daemon failed, but in no way did she expect it to be so
serious and so cruel.
Now that William had reminded her of this, she realized that she had really thought too
simply.
"On the surface it looks as if both sides are just fighting over public opinion and power,
but in fact, this is a war!!!"
