Chapter 736 Lily was taken away as soon as she got off the plane.
In the living room, Raymond, Richard, and Brandon were all present, with a few people being restrained and blood on the floor.
Jasmine was breathing heavily, almost losing her balance.
Ethan was startled and quickly ran over to hold Jasmine in his arms. "Did we wake you?"
Jasmine closed her eyes and shook her head, taking a deep breath. "Are you okay?"
Ethan patted Jasmine while holding her. "I'm fine, don't worry."
Jasmine sighed in relief.
"Richard has been keeping an eye on Sophia's mercenaries, I guessed they had defected to Lily. Now it seems to be true," Ethan whispered.
When the police arrived, those people tried to escape, but it was clear they couldn't.
Jasmine sat on the couch in silence for a long time, then took out a USB drive from a flowerpot. "This is the USB drive Emily hid in the toilet."
Then she handed the USB drive to Raymond.
"Don't let Lily find out," Ethan instructed. "Tomorrow morning, as soon as Lily's plane lands, the police will be waiting for her at the airport. If Lily senses something is wrong, she might not come back."
This was also why Ethan didn't make a fuss and waited for these people to come to him.
"Don't worry," Raymond checked the time. "Sophia should be getting the news right about now."
"I planted my own people among those mercenaries in advance, don't worry," Richard reassured in a low voice.
Jasmine nodded.
This was the path Lily chose for herself.
Lily was ruthless enough, but she was still too young, not as experienced as Sophia.
If she didn't kill, maybe she could have gone further in the future.
It's just a pity.
Korea.
Lily didn't turn on the lights and sat on the couch.
When the assistant came in, she was having a headache. "Is it handled?"
"They received the message, said they found the USB drive and have cleaned it up, but Jasmine and Ethan are not at their residence." the assistant replied.
Jasmine and Ethan were not there, which meant they weren't killed.
Lily relaxed instead. "That's good."
"Madam, are we still going back?" the assistant asked.
Lily was silent for a long time, then nodded. "Yes, we're going back."
"It might be dangerous," the assistant reminded Lily.
"The USB drive is in their hands, they might have already copied it. So, we can't let them live," Lily clenched her hands. "But I have to go back."
After all, Jasmine had been kind to her.
Moreover, Jasmine must have already seen the contents of the USB drive.
She didn't choose to call the police, so there must still be chance for negotiation.
If Jasmine was willing to cooperate, Maybe she could give up killing her.
Lily was very anxious, she hoped Jasmine could work with her.
But Emily's death left an unhealed wound in Jasmine's heart, a constant reminder that she can never forgive or embrace her again.
"This time back, don't let anyone know we are going back," Lily checked the time. "Change the itinerary."
Lily was also worried something might go wrong.
"That person sent a message today, asking you to cooperate with Bradley to deal with Mark first." the assistant said.
Lily rubbed her temples. "Mark is no longer a threat. The Douglas Group is almost emptied by Bradley now, isn't it? The Powell family just needs to cover it up. What else do they want me to do?"
"If he is really capable, he should help me get rid of Jasmine and Ethan," Lily said irritably.
She really didn't want to harm Jasmine and Ethan.
But she had to do so.
"Madam, get some rest." the assistant comforted.
Lily leaned on the couch and thought, 'Amara had already met Jasmine and Ethan, would they cooperate with Amara?'
When she returned this time, her goal was also to find a way to get rid of Amara.
Silverlight City
Jasmine hadn't slept all night, leaning against the headboard, thinking all night.
Lily's current situation was her own doing.
"Don't worry," Ethan comforted, holding her in his arms.
"Ethan, if I hadn't met you, I would probably have ended up like Lily." So Lily was right, I was just lucky to have met you.
"We were destined to meet, both six years ago and now," Ethan said guiltily.
Ethan knew he had shown up a bit late.
"So I'm lucky," Jasmine was grateful for her luck.
Since she was lucky, she should cherish this hard-won luck and not break it.
The day broke. Ethan, who had stayed up all night with Jasmine, got up to wash and cook.
"Drink some hot milk." Jasmine watched Ethan busy in the kitchen and spoke softly. "Ethan, the person behind Lily is using the Powell family to help Bradley gain a foothold in the Douglas family, and then Bradley is taking the opportunity to ruin the Douglas family. This person is clearly opposing Mark and Messiah."
There were two people, one was Messiah, who wanted to take over the Douglas family, and the other, who hasn't surfaced yet, wants to destroy it.
"Moreover, this mysterious person can get Vincent involved and use the Hamilton family's connections to help Bradley." Jasmine couldn't think of anyone else in Silverlight City. "Could it be someone from the Hamilton family?"
Ethan paused while serving the soup， he had obviously considered this too.
No matter who it was, it was hard for Ethan to accept.
Because if the other party just wanted to destroy the Douglas Group, it would be understandable, but to control Lily and accelerate the process, they killed Emily.
No matter what, Ethan and Jasmine would never forgive that person.
Around eight o'clock, Ethan received a call from Raymond, saying that Lily had secretly boarded the plane in Kerea.
And in Silverlight City, the police had been waiting for a long time.
Jasmine took a deep breath and finished her breakfast. "Ethan, let's go too."
In at most an hour and a half, Lily would be caught.
This is Silverlight City, and she must abide by Silverlight City's laws.
Since she made a mistake, she must face the consequences.
When Jasmine and Ethan arrived at the airport, the police had already taken Lily away.
Lily didn't seem panicked, she glanced in Jasmine's direction.
Jasmine sat in the car, watching Lily.
Lily smiled at her, as if relieved.
It seemed like she had exhausted the last bit of kindness she had for Jasmine.
"Lily, take care of yourself," Jasmine got out of the car and said to her.
Lily looked at Jasmine. "I'm pregnant, and I didn't instigate murder or arson. I just closed the door in panic, indirectly causing Xavier to be burned to death. At most, it's an unintentional mistake."
Lily knew how to get the lightest punishment for herself.
"Don't worry, I guarantee that by the time you get out, everything will have changed," Jasmine said calmly.
Lily panicked a bit, now feeling a bit unwilling. "Jasmine, you can't escape the abyss and then stop others."
"But you shouldn't have killed Emily for your own desires," Jasmine looked at Lily coldly.
Lily smiled. "Then let's wait and see."
Jasmine could get out of prison after five years and met Ethan. Who could guarantee that Lily won't have other opportunities when she got out?
The two children in her belly were her bargaining chips.
