Chapter 1055: Chapter 731: Grand Finale [02] Nora Scott, the Chosen One [Part 2]
Anthony Santos did not believe a word of Alexander Vaughn’s "chosen one," but Anthony was shaken by the series of analyses that followed.
"The person who rescued the cargo would go to the hospital if injured, so first check the surveillance of major hospitals. Also, check if there’s any record of a little girl being admitted or a man and a woman going to the hospital."
"Nora Scott and the goods are all at Villains Valley. You should be cautious if she shows any unusual behavior today."
"Even if she makes a slight disturbance, you must not relax your vigilance. She is very likely to detect that there is a problem with Villains Valley. At worst, she knows about the goods."
"If that’s the case, you have to prepare for the worst, and first, distance yourself because with Biel Hall’s capabilities and the intelligence of Nora Scott and Pedro Langley, once they start investigating this matter, they won’t let you leave unscathed. You need to have a recovery plan after exposure..."
Alexander Vaughn analyzed the situation one by one for Anthony Santos.
Especially emphasizing the recovery measures for Anthony Santos.
He could almost conclude that the goods had been targeted by Nora Scott, and based on this clue, he deduced a series of consequences, letting Anthony be mentally prepared.
Anthony was dumbfounded at the end, "Is it that serious?"
"It is."
"..."
Alexander Vaughn spoke every word with emphasis: "She is Nora Scott."
Nora Scott, favored by the goddess of luck.
For so many years, he had created such an elaborate game, encountering countless smart people, yet they were all played by him effortlessly.
But he fell into the hands of Nora Scott.
Fate unhesitatingly chose Nora over him—it might be because Nora is pretty.
Things that had been hidden perfectly for years were unraveled once they involved Nora, and she often had such doggedly good luck. Every time Alexander fell into Nora’s hands, he would analyze the situation thoroughly, later realizing he had no flaws; the only problem was Nora had too much luck.
Intelligence plus luck, invincible.
So he never underestimated Nora’s "cheat code."
"...Alright then."
Anthony Santos had no interest in Nora Scott at all.
Hanging up the phone, Anthony didn’t ignore Alexander Vaughn’s words but instead took action based on the series of deductions and predictions made by Alexander. He called up his father-in-law, Mr. Bay, in the middle of the night, first dispatching people to inspect the surveillance of major hospitals, then having Mr. Bay secretly move the batch of goods from Villains Valley.
At the same time—
He reinforced the alert at Villains Valley.
Upon seeing anyone from Biel Hall, especially Bruce, those involved must enter a state of first-level alert immediately.
Everything should be guided by "caution."
"Is all this hassle necessary?" Mr. Bay’s expression at this moment perfectly mirrored Anthony Santos’s when he heard Alexander’s analysis.
At that moment, Anthony even leaned a bit towards Alexander Vaughn’s stance.
"It is," Anthony knitted his brows, "being careful for a thousand years of safety, not a moment of relaxation."
"...Alright then."
Mr. Bay nodded.
But he thought to himself that Anthony was making a mountain out of a molehill. Just a mere package, even if discovered, they had a backup plan; it couldn’t stir up much trouble.
However, since Anthony was the benefactor behind all these actions and since it was rare for Anthony to come to Meishanel town, Mr. Bay decided to let him have his way, so he promptly gathered his people to handle the matter as Anthony had instructed.
After giving instructions—
Mr. Bay looked up at the sky, feeling utterly exhausted.
"Even if everything goes smoothly tonight, you can’t relax your vigilance," at this point, Anthony recalled Alexander Vaughn’s last reminder, "Tomorrow, find a chance to see Nora Scott and test her reaction."
"..."
Mr. Bay looked bewildered.
??
Isn’t this too cautious!
