Chapter 429 – Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family

Posted on February 16, 2025 by admin

Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family

Mirabella blocked it with her hand, her curiosity piqued as she asked, “What’s this?”

“Deadly Seven Step,” Carol replied with a confident smirk on her beautiful face, “It’s a drug I invented.

No one else has the antidote. Now kneel down and taste the pain Clark had to endure.”

“So, if I take more than seven steps, I’ll faint?”

“No, you’ll just drop dead,” Carol corrected, “Of course, I won’t let you die that easily.”Mirabella chuckled, an elegant smile gracing her pretty face, and then she named the ingredients of the drug.

Carol didn’t expect Mirabella to identify the main ingredients so easily, which made her even angrier.

Mirabella lunged, swiftly landing a strike on Carol’s heart. Whether from rage or Mirabella’s attack, Carol coughed up a mouthful of poisoned blood.

Looking at the blood on the floor, Mirabella said nonchalantly, “Finally, it came out. You have quite the endurance, unlike most people. It took quite a bit of coaxing on my part.”

At least part of the poison was out.

“Do you feel better now?” Mirabella asked.

“What do you mean?” Carol leaned on the table, feeling much better, but she was still puzzled and wary of the two things Mirabella had mentioned.

“Are you Carol, Carol, right?” Mirabella coolly extended her hand, “Pleased to introduce myself, I’m your future sister-in-law, Mirabella Collins. Clark is actually my brother”

Carol froze on the spot, it took quite a while before she denied, “You’re lying, Clark only has one sister, I’ve seen her picture, it’s not you.”

“Oh, you mean Serena Collins? She’s the adopted sister,” Mirabella apparently didn’t consider Serena significant.

But Carol still wasn’t convinced, “I’ve never heard Clark mention this.”

“Why don’t you ask him later?”

At that, Carol perked up, Clark was coming too? Really!

“My brother Clark is not far from here; he’s been searching for you for a whole year.”

Carol recalled the surroundings, “Not far from here there’s only a Mafia Flame, did he get captured by the Mafia Flame?”

Was he in danger? Where in Mafia Flame?

No, she must go rescue him right away!

“He wasnt captured, but he did get hurt quite a bit, because of you, and your family, all thanks to your organization.”

Mirabella picked up her recording device again, paused the recording, sent the video she just filmed to Clark, and then said, “But don’t worry too much, he just got a few slashes on his arm, took a hit in theback, needs help walking, can’t eat, can’t sleep, his mind is just on finding you, that’s all. He won’t die from those.”

Carol’s heart tightened unexpectedly, was his injury that severe? Did he see a doctor? That fool, why did he even come here?!

Didn’t she break up with him!

Why was he so foolisht!

“As for my identity, if this doesn’t prove it.” Mirabella opened her contacts, found Clark’s number, waved it around, “You can also call and ask him yourself.”

Carol saw the “Clark” in her contacts was indeed Clark’s number, but getting Clark’s number wasn’t a very difficult feat.

At that moment, Mirabella heard noises from outside, and immediately said, “Be careful, someone is coming.”

Ten or so people just burst through the door, menacingly.

The man at the front sneered coldly, “You traitor, you really are here! You’re all in this together!”

Ever since Mirabella left that mountain, someone had been secretly following her, because the rain was pouring so heavily, Mirabella’s anti-surveillance skills weren’t as good as usual, many sounds were masked by the wind and rain.

The organization’s people saw Dennis run to the front of the castle causing a ruckus, a long time ago, they suspected Dennis’ identity, in the end, they saw Dennis bring Mirabella there, and even purposely waited outside, until that moment to burst in.“What’s your relationship with Mafia Flame?” The man at the front angrily asked again, “Are you Mr.

Bryant’s woman?”

Only Mr. Bryant’s woman had the privilege to live in that castle, and receive so much respect from Mr.

Bryant’s men.

Mirabella was stunned.

“Oh, you could say that, Mirabella smirked playfully, “Aren’t you going to make a move? You’re so slow, is this the speed of your organization?”

“You dare to look down on us? You hurt our Mathew and so many brothers, today, I will definitely tie you up and take you to Mr. Bryant, let him personally punish you!”

For the stability of Mafia Flame, Mr. Bryant certainly wouldn’t discard a woman.

After all, Mr. Bryant was notoriously cold-blooded.

That woman even had the audacity to cause a commotion in their organization and delete the records on all their lab computers.

They must make an example out of her!

“And you, Carol, you traitor, come back with me and kneel before the elders!”

“In your dreams!” Mirabella and Carol spoke simultaneously, casting each other a surprised glance.

They didn’t expect to be in such an agreement.

“It’s been a while since I’ve had a good workout.”

After being hit by Mirabella, some of the poison in her body was expelled, making Carol feel much lighter.

She flexed her wrists, ready for a showdown.

The masked man at the front sneered, “We’ve set a trap for you. You two have no chance of escaping from here.

You might as well surrender.”

“Talks too much,’ Carol and Mirabella once again spoke simultaneously, both displaying a mocking smile. Their beauty had a touch of chill and coolness.

Mirabella said with interest, “Show us what you’ve got.”

“Take this; Like a bolt of lightning, Carol quickly moved to the front.

Mirabella was surprised that Carol was so much faster than before, just by expelling some of the poison.

Her moves were quicker, and more precise.

Mirabella was also gaining the upper hand on those men. Those small fries were easy for her to deal with.Waves of people kept on pouring in from outside, like mushrooms after the rain.

At the same time, bullets were raining down on them.

Mirabella overturned a table, sending it flying in front of Carol to shield her.

Carol picked up a small knife that someone had dropped and threw it accurately toward the man sneaking up behind Mirabella and hitting him.

The two of them were protecting each other in their own ways.

The masked man was taken aback by their seamless cooperation, and the formidable aura they exuded.

It seemed like Mr. Byron was right, Mirabella was one of the forces Carol had trained in secret for the resistance!

Not only did she train people in secret, but she also collaborated with Mafia Flame, harming their own people.

Those two crimes alone were enough to send Carol to the depths of hell!

The others in the organization wouldn’t dare to protect her after all of that!

At that point, Mirabella looked at Carol and hurriedly asked, “Where is the thing from earlier?”

Carol was confused, what thing?

Suddenly, she remembered and took out a small medicine bottle from her pocket, asking in confusion, “This?

Deadly Seven Step?!Mirabella raised an eyebrow as if to say, yes, that was it.

Carol immediately threw the bottle over. Mirabella caught it easily and in less than two seconds, she had mixed the Deadly Seven Step into another medicine she had.

With a flick of her wrist, the grey powder flew towards the others. They didn’t understand what was happening to them until they started to fall one by one, unable to move.

The masked man immediately covered his nose but still inhaled some of the fine powder. In a few seconds, he also felt weak and powerless.

What was that stuff?

It was incredibly potent.

Did Carol and that girl research some kind of drug in secret to use against the organization?

Thinking about that, the masked man’s anger flared, he felt that Carol had gone way too far!
