Chapter 140 Wicked Plan
The elite soldiers brought Tony and his men into their car.
The sudden event left everyone at the hotel dumbfounded, as they had long gotten used to never offending Tony and his men.
They never expected that the hooligans would be dealt with and captured in an instant.
Macy turned to Sylvia and said, “We should pay for their meal, Sylvia. It would be unfair to the hotel otherwise.”
Sylvia rolled her eyes in disbelief as she was being ordered around by her junior. She soon came to realize this was why Caspian hated having Macy around.
However, she decided not to make a big deal about it.
Macy waited for Sylvia to make the payment before leaving the hotel together.
They had already discussed where they would be executing Tony and his men.
The elite troops soon brought Tony and his men to the outskirts of Southlake City.
Tony was utterly terrified as he demanded, “Just who the hell are you guys?”
“We work for Caspian!” answered Macy.
He was confused by the answer. “Caspian? You mean that good–for–nothing Caspian Lynch?”
“He’s more of a man than you could ever hope to be.”
Macy had become depressed and secretly cried for days when she learned that Caspian was
married.
However, she finally felt some sense of relief now that she could visit him every day in
Southlake City.
“I don’t think I’ve any grudges with Caspian, so why are you doing this?” asked Tony.
He had heard only rumors about Caspian.
She coldly explained, “Because you’ve offended Caspian’s teacher, Stephanie!”
Tony and his men instantly shivered with fear as they were guilty of robbing Stephanie in broad daylight.
They never expected that Stephanie was Caspian’s teacher.
He sheepishly asked, “So what do you want from us?”
“Give us back the money that you stole!”

He obediently brought out Stephanie’s bag and handed it over..
He began to beg for mercy. “This is all that’s left. Please, let us go.”
Tony and his men had already spent tens of thousands in quick succession ever since they robbed Stephanie.
He had never expected to be caught by Caspian and his men so soon.
Macy continued her interrogation. “Another question. Why did you beat up Stephanie’s father? Who gave you the orders?”
“I can’t tell you about that!”
Tony couldn’t afford to reveal his benefactor hiding in the shadows.
Macy wasn’t in the mood to negotiate for an answer. “Finish them off! We’ll see if you’ll start to talk then.”
The elite soldiers each brought out their own pistols.
Dozens of gunshots rang out in succession right next to Tony. His men were instantly killed without even having a moment to beg for mercy.
He screamed in terror as he watched his men fall down beside him one by one.

Macy continued, “You’re next if you still want to keep your mouth shut.”
“It’s Belvin! Belvin Lincoln! He’s the one who ordered us to beat up Stephanie’s dad!‘
He instantly revealed the real mastermind in the shadows in an attempt to save his own skin.
Macy was finally satisfied as she had gotten the information she wanted. “Scumbags like you are nothing but a public menace. Killing you would be doing the city a favor!”
She pulled out her own pistol and proceeded to execute Tony right then and there.
Sylvia realized that Macy was, in fact, quite the efficient soldier when she was properly carrying out her mission.
She felt like she did nothing while Macy did all of her work for her.
One hour later, the duo soon returned to Southlake Hospital.
Caspian was spending time with Stephanie and Elias in his hospital ward.
While Avon was treating Lana’s injuries in her room
Sylvia brought the bag along and showed it to Stephanie. “Ms. Wildman, is this your bag?”
+15 BONUS
Stephanie instantly recognized the bag as hers. “It is! How did you get it back?”
“We ran into Tony and his men while they were out collecting money from the locals. We taught him a lesson and retrieved this bag for you.”
Sylvia casually came up with an excuse for an explanation.
Stephanie accepted the bag and looked through the money inside.
“It’s exactly the 150 thousand dollars that I put in! Thank you!”
She had genuinely never expected to get the money back after losing the lifeline given to her by Caspian.
All of her sadness was swept away instantly, and she cheered up.
“You’re welcome, Ms. Wildman,” answered Sylvia.
“Please be careful out there. Tony’s quite famous around these areas. I’m sure he would try to get his revenge,” warned Stephanie.
She had no idea that Tony and his men were already beyond this world.
She also had no idea just how powerful Caspian was. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been worried sick for his safety.
Sylvia calmly explained, “It’s not a problem. He’s just a random hooligan.”
Caspian then chimed in, saying, “Relax, Ms. Wildman. Your money is back, and everything will be just fine.”
Stephanie nodded as she realized that the two of them would help each other out and keep
each other safe as comrades.
Meanwhile, in a restaurant in Southlake City, Alicia was sitting at a table with Richard and
Nicholas.
All three of them were acquainted, as Nicholas had met the other two back when he was still
trying to court Willow.
The two men were influential figures in Southlake City and quickly became friends who would often meet up to enjoy a meal, drink, or just have fun.
Alicia noticed the dejected. Nicholas at the table. “You seem down, Nicholas.”
Nicholas shook his head and sighed before speaking his mind. “Ever since I proposed to your cousin in front of everyone, the Southlake Corporation pulled away and never cooperated with my family for business ever again.

“My family’s reputation was tainted as a result, and I had lost all respect from my own family members. I just don’t understand why all of this happened.”
Richard tried to console his friend. “We’re on the same boat, Nicholas. My uncle was fired from the Southlake Corporation for no good reason, and eventually, all cooperative business. ventures with my family were terminated as well. Now, my entire family hates me as well.”
Alicia suddenly came up with a wicked plan as she watched the two men complain about life.
She had long been holding a grudge against Willow for always one–upping her in every aspect of life, especially that grand wedding of hers.
She had been waiting for an opportunity to strike back against Willow, but none had shown up for the longest time.
Until now, that was when Alicia realized she could make Nicholas a pawn in her plans.
She asked, “Nicholas, do you still have feelings for Willow?”
“Yeah, but she’s already Caspian’s wife now. Not much I can do about it, can I?” answered Nicholas dejectedly.
He felt helpless as he had been pursuing Willow’s attention and love for a long time.
He had always fancied Willow for her beauty and exquisite figure. But unfortunately, Caspian had snatched his sweetheart away from him.
Alicia explained, “That doesn’t really matter, you know? Just because there’s a goalkeeper doesn’t mean you still can’t score! I can help you get Willow back and rebuild the partnership between Southlake Corporation and the Archer family.”
Nicholas was naturally hesitant with her offer at first. “That sounds too good to be true.”
But he realized that he had no reason not to reject her offer if there was still a chance to make
his dreams come true.
He would rescue his princess from Caspian and bring a new era for the Archer family’s influence in Southlake Corporation.
“It’s true! But it might be risky. Would you like to try, Nicholas?”
He was eagerly waiting for her to explain the plan. “I ain’t afraid! Just tell me what’s your plan already.”
Nicholas was willing to try anything Alicia would mention, so long as he could still have a chance to be together with Willow.
His one–sided love had blinded him so much that he would ignore any risks just for another chance.
