The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5104

Only after one entered this gate could one see that the inside of this courtyard was incredibly large.

The courtyard which was neatly paved with emerald stones was at least several thousand square meters.

The old man led Vera all the way to his study room and then ordered everyone to leave the study room and stay about fifty meters away. Therefore, all the family members and servants retreated to the backyard.

In the study room, the old man invited Vera to sit on the Lexington chair respectfully before he asked, “Miss, where did you come from? Why didn’t you inform me in advance so that I could have arranged for someone to pick you up?!”

Vera said indifferently, “My journey was quite tumultuous. I set out from Northern Europe and then arrived in Murmansk in Russia by boat first. After that, I transferred to land from Murmansk and took a car and a train to Moscow before I took a flight from Moscow to Vietnam. I finally entered Oskia by land from Vietnam and then took a plane from the southwest to Eastcliff.”

“You went through so much trouble?!” The old man was surprised and asked, “Miss, you suddenly used such a tortuous route to come to Oskia. Could it be that you’ve encountered some trouble?”

“Yes.” Vera did not hide it and said frankly, “Something went terribly wrong in Northern Europe, and I almost lost my life.”

“What?!” The old man asked in shock, “How did that happen?!”

Vera smiled wryly and said, “One of the subordinates trained by Mr. Raven somehow got in touch with the Qing Eliminating Society and exposed my whereabouts. The Qing Eliminating Society sent people to Northern Europe overnight to hunt us down and killed everyone except me and Mr. Raven. Fortunately, with the help of a benefactor, Mr. Raven and I were able to escape.”

The old man said with a horrified expression, “The Qing Eliminating Society actually found you...”

“That’s right.” Vera sighed and said, “I’ve always kept a low profile, but I didn’t expect that something would go wrong internally. Mr. Raven’s subordinates do not know of my identity, but the Qing Eliminating Society has been using special channels to hunt me down. They are also giving out huge rewards in order to find me. I guess that one of Mr. Raven’s subordinates must have gotten hold of this information by chance and sold me out.”
