Fled With CEO’s Twin Babies

Chapter 899 Someone Else Behind All This

As it happened by coincidence, they stumbled upon Charlotte’s island and got wind of rumors about gold mines. So, they decided to kidnap a geological survey professor, forced him to locate the gold mine’s whereabouts, and smoothly acquired a group of workers. They clandestinely began mining on the island.

As they had suspected, it seemed that Charlotte had completely forgotten about this island and hadn’t visited it in ages.

This made them even bolder, and they brought in more resources to carry out a major operation.

However, they hadn’t expected that just when they were about to extract the gold, Charlotte and her friends decided to vacation on the island.

“Our original plan was to kill all of you and then seize all the ore,” spoke Stubble-Bearded Man as he recounted his scheme, his face displaying intermittent waves of delusion.

It was as if he had truly achieved what he had desired in his heart, successfully obtaining the gold mine and killing Charlotte in the process.

Unfortunately, fantasies are just fantasies. He didn’t succeed in obtaining the gold mine and was even caught by them before he could lay a hand on Charlotte.

Thinking about this, Stubble-Bearded Man seethed with hatred.

After hearing everything, everyone felt a subtle sympathy for StubbleBearded Man. Could his luck have been any worse?

After settling back into her chair, Selina looked at Stubble-Bearded Man coldly. “I managed to build such a huge underground market; I won’t fall apart in a moment of misfortune.” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t say much more and gestured to Asher.

Asher understood and quickly dragged him away.

No one present questioned Stubble-Bearded Man’s fate; instead, they turned their attention to Selina.

Selina furrowed her brows and looked at Charlotte and Joe. “Although this man is a traitor, I know him well enough to be sure he couldn’t have pulled off something like this on his own.”

“Are you suggesting there’s someone else behind all this?” Joe furrowed his brows.

Selina shook her head. “Rest assured, that person wasn’t targeting you. I will thoroughly investigate this matter and provide you with an explanation.”

Having witnessed Selina’s capabilities, Charlotte and Joe had no doubts about her ability to find the real culprit. After a moment’s hesitation, they agreed.

Before leaving, Selina handed each of them a box. “This matter is ultimately connected to me, so consider this my apology.”

After leaving the underground market, Charlotte opened the box Selina had given her.

Inside the palm-sized velvet box were dozens of rubies, each the size of a thumb, with top-notch purity

and clarity.

The boxes contained the items that money couldn’t buy.

“She’s really generous.”

The gifts for Sharon and Joe were even more straightforward – a box filled with high-quality sapphires of exceptional purity.

“It’s her way of reassuring us that even though the underground market is currently in crisis, her abilities remain undiminished,” Charlotte remarked as she closed the box. She suddenly thought of Selina’s appearance today.

Despite her efforts to conceal it, Charlotte could still discern a trace of weariness in Selina’s eyes.

Selina didn’t keep them waiting for long. In less than ten days, she informed Charlotte and Joe about the mastermind behind the scenes, a name they had never heard before.

Charlotte and Joe found a suitable mining team and decided to leave Sharon behind on the island.

Before Sharon could even express any reluctance, Charlotte volunteered to give him 10% of the profits, to which he readily agreed.
