Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2189

Vernon said after a long silence, "Mitch, you shouldn't talk to Veda in that tone. You know Veda and his temper. He's impatient, but he has done a lot for us."

"Don't worry, Vernon. I'll give Veda his share when we find that box of gold."

"Yeah."

Vernon nodded and did not speak again.

Wilbur followed behind and watched the team silently. He felt slightly scared. Vernon and the others only made it as far as five kilometers in the forest. It was an insignificant distance for a forest that covered an area of ten thousand square kilometers.

Moreover, the record for the furthest travel was only ten kilometers. It was almost the limit for the explorers.

Even then, ten kilometers were also insignificant in comparison to the entire forest. The treasure Mitch knew about was in the depths of the forest. It was almost not humanly possible to reach there.

It surpassed the human limits, but the exploration team did not seem to care. They seemed determined to find the treasure, so they could live a comfortable life after finding the box of gold.

However, that box of gold was simply far beyond their capabilities to obtain. They have made twenty-three attempts, all to work for an impossible goal. Wilbur could not believe that they were that delusional. He wondered if it was the power of greed that had enslaved their minds.

Mitch was enraged all of a sudden. He stepped forward and grabbed Wilbur by the shirt, lifting him up, then said in a hateful tone, "Listen to me! We'll find the treasure for sure! We can do it, and no one can stop us!"

Vernon walked over and said, "Since you know about this, you have two choices now, Wilbur. You either keep this a secret for us, or you die!"

He took a dagger out of his bag as he spoke, then asked, "What's your choice?"

Wilbur looked at Vernon's hollow gaze. He knew that those people were blinded by greed, and they would not change their minds no matter what he said.
