Do exactly what I say and go where I tell you. No questions or doubts. Understood?”


    Tawanna’s face turned pale with fear, and she stammered, “A-a billion dors… just to kill me?!”


    “Yes!” charlie Wade confirmed. “Are you surprised by your own worth? This is the first time I’ve heard of someone putting a billion-dor price tag on a girl’s life. When you retire from the entertainment industry, you might even qualify for a Guinness World Record with this story.”<fne68a> Chapters first released on findnovel</fne68a>


    Tawanna forced a bitter smile and said, “They’re spending a billion dors to end my life not because I’m valuable, but because they fear I’ll reveal their secrets…”


    Trevor, standing by her side, quickly suggested, “Honey, if they’re that desperate, why not post everything you know online? That way, they won’t need to kill you to silence you.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Tawanna looked at Trevor with a conflicted expression and replied, “If I reveal anything, my future will be ruined. Besides, even if I share everything, they still won’t spare me. I may know a lot, but without solid evidence, it won’t harm them much. However, if the authorities decide to investigate, I’ll be a key witness against them. That’s why they’ll stop at nothing to eliminate me.”


    Trevor asked anxiously, “Tawanna, what secrets do you know that make them so desperate to kill you?!”


    Tawanna replied with a conflicted expression, “Trevor, believe me, I… I didn’t do anything wrong. Back then, they did everything they could to pull me into their circle. To fit in, I had a lot of interactions with them and witnessed too much of what they did. But after I got together with you, I cut off all contact with them…”


    Trevor covered his face and sighed, unsure if it was from regret or sorrow.


    At that moment, Mitsui Yoshitaka rushed over with his daughter, Mitsui Xinmei. Seeing the door slightly open, he grew uneasy, worried someone might have already made an attempt on Tawanna’s life. He held Mitsui Xinmei back, not daring to let her go forward.


    As he debated whether to send someone in to check, charlie Wade opened the door and said, “Mr. Mitsui, please instruct your bodyguards to guard all entrances and exits of the Dome. No one goes out, and no onees in!”


    Mitsui Yoshitaka nodded and assured charlie Wade, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I’ve already ordered the Mitsui family’s security to set up a perimeter around the manor. A helicopter will arrive shortly to take Miss Sweet to the manor for close protection.”


    charlie Wade replied coldly, “A helicopter isn’t safe in this situation. If something unexpected happens while airborne, survival will be difficult. It’s better to have security personnel guard the exits and find a way to leave through a standard route.”


    Mitsui Yoshitaka said, “Mr. Wade, there’s no need to worry. We have plenty of people here, and with my family’s influence, few in Japan would dare oppose us.”


    Just then, a man who looked simr to Mitsui Yoshitaka ran up and eximed, “Brother, bad news! Our informants in the Yamaguchi-gumi, Inagawa-kai, and Sumiyoshi-kai report that their leaders have ordered their top members and elite assassins to find and kill Miss Sweet at all costs!”


    “What?!” Mitsui Yoshitaka’s face flushed with anger, and he blurted out, “Those second-rate gangs dare to challenge the Mitsui family?!”


    He immediately barked, “Call Nishida Hirohiro! I want to ask if he and his Yamaguchi-gumi are tired of living!”
