Chapter 1130
“Sorry, Khloe… please show mercy and spare me this once!” Trey pleaded.
Khloe didn’t turn back. The corner of her lips lifted into a cold, faint curve.
“Fine. I’ll spare you.”
“Khloe! I knew you-”
Trey’s heart leapt. He had barely started to rise when Khloe’s voice cut in again.
“But you have to do one thing for me.”
“What is it?” Trey froze in confusion.
“Help me locate Lacuna’s headquarters… and wipe them out.”
Khloe turned her head slightly, her voice slow and unhurried.
For a moment, Trey thought he had misheard.
He stood there in stunned silence for a long time before suddenly snapping upright.
“Khloe, are you insane?! Not to mention how terrifying that organization is-I don’t even have the ability to do that! Just say you don’t want to release them!”
“If you truly can’t do it,” Khloe said calmly, “why would I waste time on you? Do you really think I let you go last night because I wanted you to keep bothering me?”
Achill ran straight through Trey.
The Khloe standing before him was no longer the same person he once knew. She had become cold, merciless- like something in human skin pulled straight from hell.
Barney stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar.
“Trey, my sister is giving you a chance out of kindness. Don’t be ungrateful. This may be your last chance.”
He shoved him away.
Trey staggered back two steps.
“Khloe… I really can’t do it. I’ve dealt with the people from Lacuna before. I already gave you the list. I heard those people have already gone missing. I think I’ve already been targeted by them…”
Khloe glanced down at her fingers,
Indeed, the list Trey had previously provided had already been cleaned up.
One person had remained in the country and was secretly captured for interrogation. The rest had fled overseas, but two days ago, Lucas had already tracked them down.
Falling into the hands of someone like Lucas, those people might have wished they had surrendered to the police instead.
But capturing these people alone was far from enough. What she wanted was the complete eradication of Lacuna. Only then could she truly pay tribute to what she had lost-and the precious things taken from her.

“Don’t worry. You’re perfectly safe right now,” Khloe said evenly. “As long as you cooperate, no one in Goldmont City will touch you. Not even Lacuna.”
Trey’s brows were already tightly locked.
“Khloe, if you want to kill me, just do it outright. Do you really think I can only rely on you? Ariana’s family background is not something you can afford to provoke. Worst case, we all die together!”
“Fine.” Khloe’s tone remained calm. “If you’re not afraid of death, then your entire family can die together.”
Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she smiled faintly.
“By the way, who told you I kidnapped Ariana? Do you have any proof?”
“Khloe, you-”
“I’ll give you time to think. Give me an answer before ten o’clock tomorrow morning.”
She glanced at her watch.
Without another word, she got into the car.
Trey tried to rush after her, but Barney raised a hand and blocked him firmly. 1
“Do you still remember how you originally contacted Lacuna?” Barney said coldly. “I suggest you reconsider your path while there’s still time. Whether you choose to turn back now and walk away with what you have… or drag your entire family into ruin and end up with nothing but suffering and regret that shouldn’t be a difficult choice.

As he finished speaking, his hand lightly brushed off the dust on Trey’s chest. 1
The car drove off.
Only then did Trey slowly begin to realize exactly what kind of situation he had just stepped into.
