Chapter 1412

"No." Liza shook her head. "I'm just curious."

Fermin put a finger on his lips and whispered, "Kids shouldn't be so curious."

Liza stopped talking and left with him. She noticed the guards' fearful looks and

asked, "Why are they all so scared of you?"

"The weak fear the strong. That's the rule of society." Fermin paused, looking at

her. "But you don't need to worry. With me around, no one can bully you."

Liza leaned forward. "Can you make peace with Debra and her people?"

"Oh?"

"You shot her."

"Look, I didn't kill her for your sake."

"But she was kind to me."

"So, I only shot her in the shoulder."

"That makes me upset."

"Well, next time, I'll let her shoot back."

Fermin opened the car door, placed her favorite pink pillow on the seat, and

adjusted it to her liking before letting her get in. Then he helped her buckle up.

Liza pouted. "You're making me lose all my friends."

Fermin, driving with one hand, asked casually, "Who is more important, your

friends or me?"

"You're all important."

"Pick one."

Liza fell silent, and he smiled, "You'll

pick me, right? Since I'm more

important, don't argue with me over

those people. I might get upset and

kill them all."

"You're unreasonable." Liza stomped

her feet. If you keep going against

them, I won't talk to you again. Who

would want a paranoid brother like

you?"

Fermin suddenly slammed on the

brakes, startling Liza. She thought

he was going to snap at her but he

only handed her a bottle of water.

"Have some water first before you go on scolding me."

"..."

Liza's face turned red from anger. She decided to pester him until he gave in.

Fermin looked at her through the rearview mirror and leaned back against the

window.

"My dear little sister, there's no time left."

"Huh?"

"Within three days, Jeffrey will make his move. Everyone at the Potter Mansion

will be dead."

"What? Why?"

"Jeffrey can't wait to get the treasure. So, rather than trying to convince me, you'd

better start picking coffins for your friends."
