"If this matter were so simple, I wouldn’t have come to you, right?" Connor said with a smile.
"Well, that’s true," Yuna chuckled and continued, "If you were looking for someone else, this might not be achievable. But if you’re looking for me, I can help you. However, I need you to promise me something."
"What is it?" he asked excitedly after seeing that she was willing to help.
"There’s someone who wants to meet you. If you go meet this person with me, I’ll help you with this favor. How does that sound?" she asked.
"Who is this person?" he hesitated.
"I can’t tell you who this person is right now. You’ll find out when you meet them," she said slowly.
Connor, trusting Yuna, hesitated for a moment and then said softly, "Alright, I promise. When should we meet this person?"
"They’re currently not in Yarlford, and they have other matters to attend to. When they return, I’ll take you to meet them. For now, let’s focus on dealing with Yamino," she said softly.
"Are you planning for me to bring the witness to meet you, or will you come to Yarlford?" he asked excitedly.
"I’ll come over. I should be able to make it in a couple of days. I’ll also bring someone to handle this case. When the time comes, you can hand over the evidence and the witness to him. You won’t need to worry about the rest," she said.
"That’s great. Thank you so much, Yuna," he said with relief.
"Don’t be so polite, Connor. When I arrive in Yarlford, remember to treat me to some good food!" she said with a smile.
"Sure, no problem!" He agreed.
"Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now. I’m quite tired," Yuna said and then ended the call.
Connor was filled with excitement because he knew that he was now only one step away from completing his plan. Once Yuna brought the reinforcements, Yamino would have nowhere to hide.
Yolanda, who had been silently listening to their conversation, turned her head to look at him. Her expression was filled with curiosity, wondering why he was so happy.
"Aren’t you curious about what I’m doing right now?" he asked her.
"No, not at all," she replied with a shake of her head. "Everything you’re doing has nothing to do with me. I just want to be your woman and help you protect our Profound Sect."
"Alright," Connor said somewhat helplessly and continued driving quietly.
On the other side, in the villa where Yamino was hiding.
Because he was worried that Connor might seek revenge, he had intentionally hidden in a villa in the outskirts of Yarlford. Except for himself, no one else knew of his location. Even his son, Juan, believed that his father had already left Yarlford.
Yamino knew that he was no match for Connor at this point. If he showed himself, it would undoubtedly lead to his death. Therefore, he could only wait here for Rockefeller’s reinforcements.
At this moment, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from Juan. He answered the call and asked, "How’s the situation at the company?"
"Dad, it’s really bad. Aida, that treacherous woman, has actually ceased all cooperation with our company," Juan said in a highly agitated tone.
"I already suspected that would happen. Since the Collier family has stopped cooperation, just consider giving the company a break. Let the employees take some time off. When the reinforcements arrive, I’ll deal with these matters," he said. He was in a situation where he couldn’t even protect himself, let alone the company.
"Dad, it’s not just about stopping cooperation. Aida used this opportunity to contact our clients. She’s currently trying to snatch away most of our clients. If we continue to halt operations, the remaining clients might also be taken by her," Juan explained anxiously.
"What did you say?" Yamino’s face turned furious upon hearing this.
"She is stealing our clients, and she has already taken away a large portion of them. If we continue to suspend operations, the remaining clients may also be taken by her," Juan said in a hushed voice.
"How could she have the contact information of these clients?" Yamino asked through gritted teeth.
"I gave her the client information," Juan admitted reluctantly.
"You..." Yamino was so angry that he almost spat out blood. "How could you give her that confidential information?!"
"That period when you were not in Yarlford, the Four Great Families betrayed us, and I had too much on my plate. I was busy with numerous matters every day, and I didn’t have the time to handle these affairs. So, I asked Aida to help me. Who would have thought that she’s also one of Connor’s people?" he explained with frustration.
"How could you be so careless? These client details are highly confidential. How could you give them to Aida?" Yamino gnashed his teeth in anger.
"I know it was a mistake, Dad. I didn’t expect her to be one of Connor’s people," Juan stuttered.
"What should I say to you?" Yamino took a deep breath and continued, "You go and try to retain those clients. I’ll think of a way to minimize the losses. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand," Juan replied nervously.
With that, Yamino immediately hung up.
After putting down his phone, he sat on the sofa with an expression full of anger. He hadn’t expected that Juan’s carelessness would lead to such a catastrophe. Giving away the confidential client information to Aida was like handing those clients directly into her hands.
If those businesses were solely owned by the Gomez family, he might not have been so agitated, as he believed that once Connor was eliminated, the rest of the issues could be resolved.
