“Of course! Even the second in command fell head over heels for Miss Blunt. Jewel is nothing she can’t handle.”
“What’s your beef with them, Miss Blunt?”
Blood Rose’s gaze turned colder and her lips. curled into a cruel smile at the words. A long while later, she sighed. “It’s a long story. To put it simply, their pretentious friendship disgusts me. She and Olivia had been close in the past. The haughty pair always looked down on us as if they were superior to us. Back then, there was another guy called George, who was also close to them. The trio spent most of their time together. Later, George and Olivia left, leaving Jewel alone behind. Tell me, what kind of friends is that? I felt bad for Jewel, so I suggested she spend time with us. I merely wanted to take her under my wing. However, the stubborn girl refused to join us. She’d rather go on a mission on her own instead of with us. Therefore, I didn’t insist because I respected her decision.”
Farren asked, “What happened next? You told. us she was dead.”
Blood Rose sneered. “Later, she finally realized that being a loner in the organization couldn’t work. Finding that I was close to Joseph, she made a move on the second in command. I found out that she went to his room many times. Clearly, she’s trying to steal him from me.”
Anthea frowned with disdain. “Why didn’t you get rid of her, Miss Blunt?” Farren seconded her view. “Anthea is right. That woman is shameless.”
Blood Rose sighed again. “I wouldn’t have known her intentions. I merely thought she had something to discuss with him. Every time she left his room, she either received extra training or punishment. I only learned from someone that she was trying to seduce the vice leader, but he wanted her to focus on self- improvement. She never listened to his advice, so she got punished.”
Others chimed in with distaste. “My goodness, she has no shame.” “And you just endured it, Miss Blunt? We all know the second in command likes you.”
Blood Rose chuckled. “Back then, I was mad. However, we worked for the same organization. We would see each other all the time, so I had no choice but to tolerate her. The most I could do was ignore her. After all, everyone had their own karma. There was a time when the vice leader assigned us to the same mission.
She got burned to death in that mission, but that was what we assumed. I had no idea what happened after that, but it seems like she was fine. However, she never reported back to us. Her disloyalty was obvious, so the second in command could never forgive her. He ordered us, so she must die. Besides, she killed Phantom. That’s unforgivable.”
The story ignited the crowd.
“Tell us what to do, Miss Blunt.”
“Yes, Miss Blunt. Don’t hold back. We’ll get it done for you.”
Her lips curled into a cunning smile. “Keep an eye on the people in the clinic. Jewel is returning to the country tomorrow. We should give her a lift.”
Excited, Farren ran his fingers along the keyboard to pull up the map. “Where should we do it, Miss Blunt? We could force her car to stop by setting up a roadblock on the way to the airport and kill her, or shoot her to death in the departure hall.”
Blood Rose remarked, “Then there’ll be too many of us. It’ll draw the police’s attention to us. We must keep a low profile for the time being. It feels good to know that we irritated them, but they can’t do anything to us.”
Farren suggested, “We’ll wait for her at the airport. Let’s discuss the deployment. After all, they don’t recognize us.”
A glint of amusement flashed across Blood Rose’s eyes as an idea occurred to her. Bending her forefinger, she beckoned her men to come over.
Her companions gathered around her in a circle. Blood Rose lowered her head and whispered, “You guys don’t know Jewel like I do. She often boasts of herself as a kind woman. Here’s the plan…”
After she shared her idea with them, the group laughed. “Let’s do this. We might be able to capture her alive.”
