Chapter 260

• At Paedro Mansion, the atmosphere was tense. Pedro sat in the living room, his laptop open in front of him, while Housekeeper Noel sat nearby. Several guards were stationed around the room, standing silently in their respective positions. On the surface, Pedro appeared calm, but his mind was far from at ease.
• His thoughts were consumed by one question—had the shooter completed the task? He was so anxious that he struggled to focus on his work. His fingers hovered over the keyboard, but his mind refused to cooperate. Just then, the door opened, and the sharpshooter entered the house. Pedro’s gaze snapped up, locking onto the man. Though he maintained a composed expression, his entire body was tense. Had it been done? Was she dead?
• Taking a deep breath, Pedro clenched his fists under the table and studied the sharpshooter carefully. The man was sweating profusely, his breathing labored as if he had run a long distance.
