Chapter 501: "Purple-haired Guy"

Ainsley felt her teeth aching at Evan's words. The baby couldn't help but shudder. 

'My family...might be targeted? Because of the illegal auction? Damn it. Why did no one tell me sooner?' 

Ainsley let out a long sigh. 

'Evan just told me now because the force also recently popped out...oh but, they did their work a few weeks before the auction was held...so there's a possibility my family is already targeted.' 

Evan didn't tell Ainsley about the news until now since he's not sure whether the force would go to the Roane region or not. 

After all, the Roane region had quite a few influential figures in the mafia society. 

If the mysterious force dared to attack a mafia gang in the region, it would risk disturbing the much stronger mafia gang. 

"Anyway, make sure you quickly go back home and protect your territory." Evan added. 

Ainsley immediately nodded solemnly. "Yes, uncle…" 

"Right. About the mysterious force...the victims said they spotted the logo that one of the attackers had…" 

Evan inhaled before continuing. 

"The logo they had is a golden scale. Thus, we name the mysterious force 'The Golden Scale' gang." 

"The Golden Scwale…" 

If it's a scale, it represents justice. Truly sounded like a force coming from the government. 

"Owkay, I'll be careful." Ainsley told Evan once more before Evan got reassured. 

"Good. That's all I wanted to tell you. I will leave now with my son. You should rest too." Evan stood up and shortly left the venue along with Finley. 

In the end, only Ainsley's people were left backstage, but some guests were still at the auction hall, discussing things. 

Seeing the remaining guests, at first, Ainsley thought of socialising with them. However, she was worried about her family due to Evan's sudden news. 

Thus, she commanded her people to leave the building quickly. 

"Let's go, let's go home. We can leave now." Ainsley was in a rush. After gathering her people in a hurry, she led the group out of the building. 

"Go, go, go back!" 

Ainsletly was running across the auction hall, and was about to exit the building when a familiar wavy purple hair suddenly caught her attention from the corner of her eyes. 

Swoosh. 

Whoever it was, they just passed by Ainsley from behind, leaving a blurry after-image. 

Only their striking purple hair was what people could see. 

Surprisingly, the purple hair looked so similar to Ainsley's own hair, but this one was short. It should belong to a man. 

Ainsley's heart instantly skipped a beat. In the dark night, she squinted and tried hard to see the owner of the purple hair…

But no one was in sight anymore. 

The baby couldn't help but halt her steps for a few seconds, bewildered. Her heart was still thumping loudly in her chest. 

That...who was that? 

Ba-thump. Ba-thump. 

Striking purple hair...the Sloan Family direct descendants' unique characteristic…

Ainsley had a guess, but she subconsciously shook her head, denying whatever she just thought of. 

No, no, it can't be that person. What is he doing here, anyway? Why didn't I see him before? I must have seen the wrong guy or something…

The baby gritted her teeth. 

Or maybe...I'm too tired? Or is it an illusion? 

Ainsley resumed her footsteps while silently asking Zev. 

[Zev, Zev, you there? Is this an illusion or not?] 

[I'm here, host. You're not trapped inside an illusion.] Zev hurriedly replied. 

At Zev's words, Ainsley sighed in relief. 

Good, good, so it's not an illusion…

But Ainsley still couldn't believe that she saw the wrong guy or something. She truly saw someone with purple hair…and if it's not an illusion...

In the end, while riding the carriage back to her mansion, 

Ainsley couldn't help but ask Zev for confirmation instead of asking her people. 

[...Zev. Did you see the purple-haired guy back then? He passed by my side…] 

Zev, the usually talkative spirit, suddenly didn't speak. He was silent for a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice. 

[I...I don't know what you're talking about, host.] Zev averted his eyes. He even hid behind the Godfather, further alarming Ainsley. 

The baby looked up at Zev and the Godfather with a squint. 

[Godfathel, what abwout ywou? Ywou must have seen the guy too, right?] 

The Godfather thought that Ainsley wouldn't ask him. The poor guy was caught off guard! 

The Godfather instantly averted his eyes and scratched his cheeks. 

[Sorry, lil lass. This Lord didn't see anyone like that…] 

Actually, we did. 

But the person went invisible right after...so they must have used their ability once more, or they immediately consumed an invisibility potion when it ran out earlier. 

But the Godfather and Zev didn't want to tell Ainsley about it. Both of them had tacit understanding to say nothing. 

After all, they had a feeling that…

The person was someone that's not supposed to be at the auction, and someone that Ainsley didn't want to see either. 

Unfortunately, both Zev and the Godfather were too nervous that they clearly looked like liars. Ainsley couldn't believe their statement at all. 

The baby pouted. She silently crossed her arms and looked at her people in the carriage. 

[Fine, then. I'll ask them– ] 

Before she could ask, out of the blue, her phone rang. It was such a coincidence that Zev and the Godfather instantly sighed in relief. 

Thank God she's distracted. 

[Hurry, take the phone call, Lil Lass. Maybe it's something important.] 

[Yes, host! Hurry!] 

Both spirits beguiled Ainsley to take the phone call first, and Ainsley reluctantly put aside the matter with the purple-haired guy. 

However, she had just taken the call when someone shouted from the other side of the phone. 

"Boss, our family is under attack!"
