Chapter 574: A Common Enemy

I am taking my chances with her.

Hilda is pressuring hard. If I don't act now, Frances might be in danger.

If Linda believes me, we will share a common enemy.

She won't let Hilda off, right?

I can't tackle Hilda alone, so I need allies.

I wanted to team up with Terence and start again, but he died trying to save Hilda.

Now, I can only count on Linda.

I hope this is the right call.

"To be honest, I am surprised Hilda takes over Terence's gang."

Linda is having a hard time digesting the news.

I should give credit to Hilda for the good job in keeping it a secret.

Even her close friend in the United States, who is also a member of the underworld, doesn't know her
true identity.

"So, it's not strange she can pull off a few things. Hilda has taken so much from me, including the man I
love the most, so I hate her. Jack was innocent and died at her hands. I don't know if you hate her even
more than me. We have to destroy everything she has to take her down for good."

I continue to fan the flames of hatred in her, so that she will want Hilda dead as much as I do.



"Our gang is working with Hilda's gang in some way. I even have men over there. Therefore, I think this
might not be hard for me."

Linda's words rekindle my hope.

Am I going to destroy Hilda for real?

I don't dare to paint the future too rosy, because I'm afraid I will be disappointed again.

I am still worried.

What if Linda lies about believing me and tells Hilda my plan?

Then I might just make it worse.

I look at Linda and regret acting too rashly.

Linda is perceptive and knows what I am thinking.

"Don't worry. I won't tell Hilda about this conversation. From today onwards, she is my enemy."

The determination in her eyes convinces me.

Or rather, I have to trust her.

After all, I have told her everything.

I have no choice but to take her word for it.

I bite my lip and ask her in a whisper, "Then, Jack's murder..."



"I believe you did not do it, but I will not cancel the lawsuit. Otherwise, Hilda will be suspicious. You can
have your lawyer argue that it was unjustifiable self-defense. Jack's body has been cremated. I'll get
the police to say Jack had a heart attack. That way, his cause of death will be that. You will be guilty of
disposing of his body. If you make your case and have a good attitude, you will be repatriated. Then
you should be given a probation of about two years. It won't affect you at all."

I am shocked by her thoughtful plan.

"How do you know so well?"

"I used to be a lawyer, but now I'm the leader of a gang. Isn't it hilarious? However, because of my
experience in the job, I know how to avoid crossing the line. But Hilda is different. I know that her gang
has been taking risks doing the most dangerous things for money, and that makes it easier for us to get
her."
