Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5401

“Because we made a move, caused such a massive scene, and suffered a loss, they’ll surely assume that we’re lying low to recover. They won’t expect us to act again so soon, which means they will lower their guard. That is exactly when we proceed according to our original plan.

“However, let’s modify it slightly. We only steal the family token, and we don’t hurt anyone.”

Besides, hurting them would be next to impossible anyway.

Tony finally understood why Laurence was so incredibly powerful now. As it turned out, he was Lilian’s sole apprentice.

When Jane had mentioned before that someone had taken an interest in Laurence, she meant that Lilian had recognized his potential. That was why Jane had sent her adopted son to Lilian to learn both medicine and self-defense.

Not only was Lilian a master of poisons, but her combat skills were unfathomable. According to the bodyguards from last night, her strikes were incredibly fast, precise, and ruthless. They were beaten to a pulp before they could even react.

In fact, it felt like Lilian’s skills were even superior to Laurence’s. Then again, she was the master, after all.

“Right now, getting our hands on that token is the absolute priority,” Tony added. “The token must be in Laurence’s home. He must be able to figure out that we’d want to steal it, so he might be carrying it on him, or it could be locked away in his safe.”

Manny frowned and replied, “Pops, if he’s carrying it with him, it won’t be so easy to take it from him. An item so important will be heavily guarded. We can barely even infiltrate his estate, let alone steal something so valuable. It’s going to be tough.

“How about this, Pops? Let’s call off tonight’s plan. If we want to take the token, we should hire someone with amazing thieving skills instead. I heard there used to be a thief of thieves. There was nothing he couldn’t steal if he set his mind to it.

“Wouldn’t it be much better if we paid a fortune to hire this legendary thief to steal the family token for us?”

Spending a little money to get the job done meant they would not have to risk doing it themselves.

Having faced Laurence countless times, Manny knew all too well that even if they sent their most ruthless assassins, they would not stand a chance against Laurence’s bodyguards. Not to mention, both Laurence and Noelle were masters of poison, just like their mentor.
