The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call

Chapter 1626 Time For Action

The auction hall descended into chaos. Though the magnates usually had their heads held high, fear now clouded their eyes in the face of plight. Instinctively, they turned to the bid assistants for answers.

Edward hurriedly grabbed the microphone and attempted to restore order. "Everyone, please remain calm! We're simply experiencing a voltage breakdown. The village is performing maintenance on basic facilities, which has affected the power. There's nothing to worry about!"

That was what Edward had been informed, yet Wynter knew that it was actually a signal from Wolf. It appeared that he had pinpointed the mastermind on the network. With no escape route available, her mission had become much easier.

With a smirk, Wynter swiftly pulled Dalton aside and seized Keesha as her hostage. Her movements were so swift that anyone barely had time to react. She then flung her silver needles toward the nearby magnates, pinning them onto the ground.

By the time the magnates realized they were immobilized, it was all too late. Wynter yanked off their masks, leaving them horrified by the exposure of their true identities.

To the magnates, life meant nothing but a game to them when they donned the masks. They believed those they considered peasants should feel honored to be chosen.

But once the masks were stripped away, the magnates were thrust back into reality. They were aware of the moral and legal transgressions that they had committed and feared being exposed.

The magnates let out piercing shrieks and attempted to hide their faces, but they couldn't move an inch.

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Edward yanked the dumbfounded security guards over and pointed at the nimble figure. "Don't just stand there! Get her!"

The security guards were flustered, never expecting that the real threat lay within the very person they had just auctioned.

Judah sounded even more grave on the screen, demanding to know what had happened.

"Someone infiltrated the auction hall, but it's nothing we can handle," Edward replied with a fierce glare. Whoever they were, he would see to it that those disruptors were eliminated!

Cunning as ever, Judah reminded Edward to destroy all data related to the auction. Still, he suspected that the disruption was anything but simple. There hadn't been any infiltrators at the auction for years, and the voltage breakdown's timing felt too convenient.

Judah suspected that someone was behind the incident, but he had no idea who it was. Those in the province hadn't mentioned anything to him. Could Lucas be the one behind this?

As Judah formed his assumption, he decisively shut off the internet. Despite not knowing who was behind the infiltration, he believed they could never track him down.

Little did Judah know that it was merely wishful thinking. Wolf had already identified the device he was utilizing, and it was only a matter of time before his identity was exposed.

Meanwhile, Edward was determined to eliminate Wynter. Grabbing his walkie-talkie, he was about to give an arrest order when the lookout barged in, drenched in sweat.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"This is bad, Dr. Masons! There's a crowd outside!" the lookout reported.

It was none other than the Special Unit, which had swiftly arrived and surrounded all the exits. Since they were on a mission, they were well-equipped with guns and smoke grenades.

Despite witnessing the large-scale operation before them, no villager dared to intervene. They never expected that the seemingly innocent individuals would suddenly shed their disguises.

Even if the villagers attempted to warn others, they found themselves trapped and could only report internally to their own higher-ups.
