The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

The room was lit from within, yet the windows were draped with thick black curtains, making it appear unlit from the outside.

Inside, Hannah was seated on a sofa while Remington occupied a chair by the window.

Bryson.

At the sight of Bryson, Hannah sprang up and rushed to embrace him.

Ouch… Realizing her mistake, Hannah quickly loosened her grip and looked at him with concern.

Has your wound not healed yet? Bryson shook his head slightly, a gesture meant to reassure her that it was nothing serious, although he had pulled at the wound slightly during the embrace.

Holding Hannahs hand gently yet firmly, Bryson met her eyes and reassured her, Dont worry.

Its just a minor injury.

The most important thing is that you are safe.

Against the backdrop of the window, Remington leaned, his eyes sharp and deep, though his voice betrayed his exhaustion.noveldrama

Now, we need to strategize for the next steps.

The incident at Twilight Dimness has exceeded our expectations. The internal strife there could drag us into a far more perilous vortex.

Hannah sighed, a complex expression clouding her features.

Remington is right.

We must collaborate to uncover the person orchestrating this.

Otherwise, both the Compton and Lyons families are doomed.

Remington added, The man with the rabbit mask suggested I consider taking over Twilight Dimness.

Theres internal conflict.

Perhaps we can leverage this to our advantage.

He then relayed what the man in the fox mask had divulged.

Bryson, ever analytical, noted, We can exploit the strife between the fox mask and the tiger mask.

Our goal is to intensify their conflict, escalating the battle to reveal the true puppeteer behind the scenes.

But how can we ensure we wont get caught in the crossfire? Conor posed the critical question.

This requires precise planning and timing, Remington replied thoughtfully.

Hannah looked up at Remington, skepticism in her gaze.

The real issue isnt just strategy.

Can I actually trust you? With a mysterious smile in the dimly lit room, Remington responded, Miss Moore, trust isnt built on promises alone.

Though we have manipulated each other in the past, I will demonstrate through my actions that our objectives align and that my commitment to collaboration is genuine.

Its the only way well survive this tempest.

Conor listened intently, feeling a surge of emotions swell within him.

Remington, once an adversary, now found himself allied with old foes to combat a greater threat.

It seemed the unpredictable turns of life might indeed be dictated by fate.

To dispel the tension that hung in the air, Remington cleared his throat and asked, Then, whats the specific plan? Bryson stated, his eyes blazing with determination, his tone unwavering, The first step is to infiltrate their stronghold.

I suggest we operate independently.

Ill sneak back into Twilight Dimness to gather intelligence on the tiger masked mans latest activities. Conor, your primary responsibility is to ensure Petersons safety in the hospital.

He might be their next target.

Mr.

Lyons, you will proceed as per the strategy devised by the man in the fox mask.

Hannah, you will leverage the family resources to support us and be ready to assist whenever necessary.

Hannah nodded.

Hearing this, Conor furrowed his brows.

It sounds quite risky.

Are you sure you can handle the tiger masked man? They all recognize you.

Youve escaped once; do you really want to dive back into danger? Nothing ventured, nothing gained, Bryson responded coolly.

They wont rest until theyve captured me again.

Hannah gently tugged at Brysons sleeve, her voice laced with concern.
