Chapter 174
However, no one contacted him at all.
Verdic locked Isellas room with bloodshot eyes. It had been a month with no communication, indicating that there was no room left for negotiation. Verdic released more manpower.
And because he couldnt wait any longer, he started to take action himself. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldnt find Isella anywhere.
If its not money they want, it must be revenge.
At some point, Verdic began to wait for news of Isellas corpse. If someone held a grudge, they would want that. They would want to see him suffering. Most people with a thirst for revenge were like that.
But news did not come from anywhere, reallynot from anywhere at all. No, there was plenty of news, but they were all mere lies from those who were after his money. There was no news from the real culprit. There was absolutely no concrete evidence left behind either.
As Verdic started wasting manpower, money, and time to find Isella, his business began to waste away.
