The next second, she raised her hand, and a talisman struck Earl in an instant.
His murky eyes widened in shock. The next moment, his skin visibly wrinkled, revealing dark spots, while his once gray hair turned dry and coarse like straw!
Considering he looked like a 70-year-old before this, he now resembled a withered old creature on the brink of death.
Triston's countenance shifted as he turned to Shannon. "Hey, Shan—" How could she take things into her own hands in front of the Special Security Agents?
She gazed at him calmly. "That's his karma for what he did to me. It's my right to make him face the repercussions." If there was no divine intervention, what rights did the Special Security Agency have to reprimand her?
Hector stood on the sidelines, watching everything. He didn't know what was considered orthodox or not. All he knew was his sister was right. He quietly strode forward and shielded her.
He faced the agents with a profound gaze and faint smile, saying, "We've captured the suspect for you. Is there anything else we can help you with?"
In other words, he meant, "Do whatever you need to and go wherever you need to. Don't even think about bullying my sister."
Although Triston found Shannon's actions rather impulsive, he didn't burden her with any chastising. After some thought, they took Earl back to the agency. However…
Earl looked like he was on the literal brink of his death. Would he make it to the agency?
Shannon had just exited the building when she ran into Connor, who came from claiming Rachel's body.
Connor had long lost the glow and gloriousness he used to possess. His clothes were wrinkly, and he had grown some stubble, looking disheveled and devoid of emotions.
However, his flat expression shattered in an instant upon seeing Shannon, unleashing a flash of intense hostility. Out of nowhere, he charged toward her.
Neither Shannon nor Hector reacted because Connor was stopped by the bodyguards before he could get close to her.
"Shannon!" Connor stared squarely at Shannon. "Shannon… You… Rachel is gone. Will you please let my family off the hook now?" His words conveyed that Shannon was the reason for Rachel's death.
