From Ashes of Scandal to His Embrace (Laurinda) novel Chapter 306

The three of them stepped into the study. Laurinda flipped open her laptop and brought up a map of Stonehaven.

“Check this out. Here’s the little present I put together for them.”

York and Jack both went quiet as they stared at the map and saw the clusters of red dots. Jack looked especially uneasy, his brow furrowed and his face a shade paler.

“Isn’t this a bit much? What if they come after you? We agreed we’d wait until your twentieth birthday before doing anything, remember?”

“I’m done waiting. If they want to fight back, let them. I want them to know messing with me comes with a price.”

York kept his eyes on the map, thinking it over before finally asking, “When did you get people inside Stonehaven? Are you sure they didn’t get caught?”

Laurinda leaned back in her chair, looking perfectly relaxed.

“Who knows if they noticed or not. The thing is, Stonehaven needs rare earth minerals and the only place they can get them is from Renata. The people Renata sent blended in with the shipment. Same with the micro-explosives.”

York’s expression shifted to something between disbelief and resignation. He’d been running around Cabinda, while Laurinda had been busy stirring up a storm at home.

Kenny was going to have a meltdown when he found out. York almost felt sorry for the guy.

Jack dragged over a chair and sat down beside Laurinda, tapping at the laptop screen.

“If I’m not mistaken, these two bases belong to the Third Elder and the Fifth Elder, right?”

Laurinda grinned, clearly impressed Jack had figured it out.

“Exactly. They’re the ones who bought the minerals, so they get front-row seats to the show.”
