Roderick is talking to Veronica. Buck discusses the next steps.

Roderick intends to take a certain risk and take the initiative to contact the White Knight, taking the initiative in his hands to avoid the secret of their side being exposed.

However, Veronica did not agree to this plan, the risk was too great, and she preferred to hide things from this side.

Although Veronica has not yet entered the Nares family’s mansion to check it, after hearing Roderick’s discovery, she decided not to go inside.

The two of them stood at the door of the mansion and discussed their own opinions, and it was likely that it would be a long time before they came to a conclusion that everyone could agree on.

“…… Someone’s coming.

It was at this time that Caleb. Ruth, the bodyguard, noticed a car approaching at a rapid pace. However, he was

not particularly vigilant, because he had already seen who was coming.

“It’s Miss Paige.”

“Paige? How could she come at this time?

Veronica heard her daughter coming here, but she became uneasy.

Her daughter Paige should be an insurance hidden in the shadows, and should not appear rashly.

Now that Paige has come here on her own initiative, it clearly indicates that something has happened.

“Mom!”

Paige walked down from the car in a panic.

“What’s wrong? What happened?

Veronica nervously greeted her sweaty daughter.

“Mom, over there at the orphanage… Something happened over there at the orphanage!

“What!?”

Veronica’s eyes were round, and she unconsciously clenched her fists hard.

“What the hell is going on!? What happened!?

“Over at the orphanage…”

Paige. Buck hugged his mother with a crying voice.

“Just last night, the orphanage was attacked! They…”

“Miss Buck, what happened?”

Roderick had not intended to interfere in Veronica’s collaborator’s affairs, but it seemed that something unexpected and serious had really happened to this collaborator, and he must know about the situation now to avoid accidents due to information gaps.

Only, Roderick’s concern received no response.

His collaborator, fell into a state of blind agitation, not even hearing what he said.

“…… That bastard! He knew it for a long time! That damn bastard!

Veronica turned pale and cursed in a low voice with a trembling tone.

“Trinidad. Nares! That guy… He already knew…”

“Veronica, calm down.”

Caleb. Ruth stepped forward and clasped the shoulders of the beautiful woman with his big strong hand.

“This is the end of the matter, we can’t do anything, you have to be strong, don’t forget the current situation, we need to deal with everything, don’t forget, we still need you.”

“I… I understand! Of course I understand!

Veronica struggled to take several deep breaths, but her mood was clearly still unable to calm down.

“Roderick, things have changed… Do you have the confidence to completely hide those white knights?

“I just want those white knights to focus on Trinidad. Narez’s body, let them not pay attention to our situation, I can’t guarantee that everything will go well, but I will not joke with my life, I will try my best to control things.

Roderick didn’t ask much about what was going on Veronica’s side, and now that the collaborator had changed his attitude, it was enough for the time being.

Until the other party is willing to say it in person, he is not suitable for nosy.

“Very well, then…”

Veronica hesitated, but finally set her eyes on Annan, who remained quiet.

“Black Mage, now I need your help… I have something you need to investigate.

“Oh? Would you like to believe me as a black magician?

Annan really didn’t expect this woman to want to help herself.

“I don’t care, but, Roderick, can you be alone?”

“No problem, I can still hold on.”

In addition to taking the initiative to contact the White Knight, Roderick also needs to inherit all the property of the Nares family as soon as possible, and then contact the gang members who did not have an accident and regather the power of the gang.

These things basically don’t need Annan, and when facing the white knight, Annan needs to avoid it, so as not to notice unnecessary places in the white knight.

“The next thing I have to deal with is some chores, there will be no danger, Miss Barker originally promised to send some people to help me fight, no problem.”

“Well, since you said so, then I’m okay with that.”

Annan didn’t ask for more details, so he agreed to Veronica’s request so casually.

“To be honest, it’s hard for me to trust a black magician, but, now… We do need your strength…”

Veronica knew it might be too late, but she wasn’t willing to give up.

“I run an orphanage, but, last night, something happened to the orphanage… Many children have disappeared, they have been forcibly abducted… I need your strength, I need to get those kids back!

“Although I would like to say that if you are looking for someone, you should go to the detective, but, okay, but I said first, don’t expect too much from me, I really don’t understand the search for someone.”

Annan felt that this beautiful woman’s request was really strange enough, but this matter seemed to have another story behind it, and he didn’t mind helping.

“…… I also have no other way now, I hope you can be useful.

Veronica turned her head stiffly and called her daughter, who was also ugly-looking.

“Paige, next, you follow Roderick, he should need your help.”

“Okay…”

Paige. Although Buck really wanted to stay by his mother’s side and did not worry about Annan, the black magician, there was more than one important matter for them now.

The orphanage may be irreparable, and the mother is only making a final effort and struggle, which is why they can’t put the more important business alone.

“If you have any questions, remember to contact them immediately… Well, let’s go, time does not wait.

Veronica and Caleb. Ruth took Annan into the car, while on the other side, Roderick got into Paige’s car, and the two sides began to move separately.

“Black Mage, let me tell you the general situation first…”

As soon as the car started, an anxious Veronica began to explain the situation.

“That, Miss Veronica, I don’t mind being called me Black Mage, but in front of other people, please call me by my name, in other words, do you know my name?” I don’t seem to have introduced myself yet?

Annan interrupted the other without entering the situation at all.

“Annan. Gülen, that’s my name. ”

“…… I see, Annan.

Veronica nodded stiffly.

“Let’s get back to business, about the orphanage I run…”
