My Billionaire Mom novel Chapter 594

"What!"

Sophia answered the phone. Both Elise and Sonia were extremely angry.

Base No.18 had been burnt to a crisp.

More importantly, it had been burnt despite there being a strict monitoring system in the base.

How could this have happened?

Sophia's mood gradually soured as she listened to the person speaking on the other end of the phone, "Find out everything about it. If you can't, I'll come after you and your whole family!"

She hung up the phone, thoroughly annoyed.

"Sophia, has Base No.18 been burnt?" Sonia inquired weakly.

"Yes," Sophia replied.

Their gazes met.

So it was true.

"Who could've done it? Not anyone could pull something like this off," Sonia analyzed.

This was really becoming troublesome.

"Indeed. It's difficult to even locate the

base and pass through the surveillance undetected, let alone burn down an entire base with hundreds of armed men," Sophia continued.

"Exactly. There are only a few people in this world who can achieve something like this," Sonia shook her head.

"Could it be the work of an assassin?" Elise suggested. After all, there were still a few out in the world who could accomplish this big of a feat.

The first-ranked female assassin, Black Rose, could probably accomplish something like this.

"Assassin? Elise, do you mean someone like Black Rose?" Sonia questioned.

"Possibly."

"I don't think so. I know Alexandrina Middleton, the boss of the killer organization. She understands that if she provokes me, I'll finish her off with a single bomb. Her corpse won't even be

found," Sophia disagreed.

Alexandrina would not be involved in something like this because she wouldn't be able to bear the wrath of the Lawrence family!

"If it isn't Black Rose, then who else could've done something like this?" Sonia agreed. Who else could've done this?

"Elise, close the door," Sophia's tone suddenly grew serious.

"Okay," Elise immediately went to shut the door and the windows, isolating the three of them in the room.

The three women looked at each other solemnly.

"Sophia, what do you think?" asked Sonia.

"I think it's the work of the secret families. I've said this before, right?" Sophia knew that the other three families wouldn't try to attack her. Even if they did, they wouldn't have done something this obvious.

Therefore, she had crossed them off the list.

As for the other families, they wouldn't have dared to continuously burn down several of her bases.

On top of that, they probably wouldn't have the ability to do so even if they wanted to.

They weren't even comparable in size or in wealth to her own family!

"Sophia, are you saying that this was done by the secret families? But you've said that they would never do something to expose themselves, wouldn't they? Their only goal is to make profit silently," Sonia shook her head, silently ruling out the possibility.

When she had heard Sophia talk about this before, she admitted that she was astonished.

After all, she was part of one of the Four Greatest Households.

When she found out that there were three families who held even greater power and authority, she couldn't really accept it.

"True, the hidden family would not do this. We've never done anything to offend them anyways," Elise also denied it.

There had to be a reason behind it.

They wouldn't have meddled with others' businesses for no reason.

Elise just couldn't wrap her head around it.

"But only the secret families could've done it. I've heard that the bodyguards they hire are the most powerful people in the world. It wouldn't be difficult for them to enter our base," Sophia narrowed her eyes, a gleam of killing intent flashing through her gaze.

After careful consideration, she had determined that all other families could be excluded from the narrative. That left only the secret families as the possible culprits.

They must have something to do with this!

"Then..."

Sonia and Elise were both shocked.

"If it really was their doing, then what should we do?"

"Well, I don't know. I don't even understand what they're trying to achieve yet," Sophia felt a headache coming on.

If it really was the doing of the secret families, then what could she do?

This really was troublesome.

Silence fell upon the three of them.

They had no idea what to do.

That night, none of them managed to get a good night's sleep. In the dead of the night, they had received five more calls.

In a matter of only one day, ten bases had been destroyed. They had lost hundreds of billions of dollars!

Most importantly, their family had just been publicly humiliated. Ten bases destroyed were like ten slaps to their faces. The Lawrence family became the hot topic in the United States overnight.
