Chapter 1611: Reaching An Agreement

Aida's expression became helpless as she stood in her original spot. At this moment, she wasn't sure how to explain the situation.

Meanwhile, Connor's face displayed an extraordinary sense of astonishment. He hadn't anticipated that the woman before him was none other than Aida, the well-known Princess Aida from the Collier family.

When Connor had been researching information about the Collier family, he had taken note of Aida.

Externally, she was often described as deeply calculating, possessing astonishing methods, and being as cunning as any male member of the Collier family.

Initially, she hadn't been given much attention within the Collier family. Upon returning from studying abroad, due to her stepmother's suppression, she had to manage industries that the Collier family had already abandoned. Among them, the most famous was perhaps the Collier family's Hilton Grand Hotel.

This hotel had originally been a project the Collier family had forsaken. Aida's stepmother, who was Albert's current wife, had handed over the hotel to Aida to make things difficult for her. She had even demanded that within three years, Aida turn the hotel's losses into profits.

Ordinary people saw this task as impossible. Everyone within the Collier family understood the situation and was reluctant to offer any assistance to Aida, even going as far as avoiding her.

However, what no one had expected was that Aida managed to achieve the seemingly impossible in less than two years. She transformed the decaying Hilton Hotel into one of the top luxury hotels in York. Many international elites and A-list celebrities even made it a point to stay at this hotel. The hotel's annual profits now reached billions.

But that was just the beginning. Aida went on to perform many more miracles. Eventually, she earned Albert's recognition, gaining an important role within the Collier family.

Combined with Aida's stunning looks and her frequent attendance at various business events that often caught the attention of paparazzi, she had become the public face of the Collier family. Stories of her accomplishments spread like wildfire across the internet.

So, when Connor learned of this woman's identity, his reaction was quite understandable.

However, Connor couldn't quite grasp why, given Aida's high status within the Collier family, she would sneak into this secret chamber discreetly. She could have entered openly, after all.

But Connor's mind wasn't focused on pondering this right now. He understood that the only way for him to leave this place was through a single method.

He took a step forward and embraced Aida, pressing a dagger he had found on one of the security guards against her delicate, fair neck.

Understanding Aida's esteemed position within the Collier family, Connor realized that Albert wouldn't easily let her go. His only escape route was to kidnap Aida and use her as leverage to threaten the Collier family.

Of course, Connor had also considered kidnapping Albert earlier, not knowing Aida's true identity.

But kidnapping Albert at this point was extremely difficult. Albert was far from Connor's reach, and with Jiang Biao, a martial artist at the Profound Stage, by Albert's side, the chances of Connor getting close were minimal.

Yet, Aida's sudden appearance had solved this problem for Connor. She was the public face of the Collier family, managing many of their businesses. And more importantly, she was Albert's daughter. Connor believed that Albert wouldn't easily give her up.

"Let go of Aida!"

As anticipated, Albert's expression turned tense when he saw Connor kidnapping Aida.

"Heh, I'll release this woman if you let me leave this place first!"

Connor responded calmly.

Aida hesitated for a moment, then shouted coldly at Connor, "Let me go quickly! Earlier, you coerced me into bringing you here. You're surrounded now, and you have no chance of escaping. If you surrender now, you might suffer a little less. Otherwise, your fate is sealed!"

Connor was taken aback by Aida's words.

He hadn't coerced Aida into coming here; in fact, she had arrived before him. Clearly, Aida was remarkably quick-witted, shifting all the blame onto Connor and avoiding the need to explain why she was in the secret chamber. Her plan would remain hidden.

Connor gave Aida a casual glance but didn't expose her. It seemed that Aida and Connor had reached an unspoken understanding.

Albert's eyes glared as he angrily yelled, "Release my daughter now!"

Albert understood that the security system of the Collier family mansion was notoriously strict. Yet, someone had managed to breach it and kidnap his daughter. If this news spread, the Collier family's reputation would be tarnished.

Furthermore, Albert valued Aida greatly, and his expression was now marked with intense anger.

"Suffer? Death might be more fitting."

Upon hearing Albert's words, Connor couldn't help but chuckle before responding calmly, "As long as I can leave here, I'll naturally release this woman…"

"Who are you?"

Albert, somewhat calmer now, asked Connor in a hushed voice.

"Do you think I would tell you who I am?"

Connor retorted in response to Albert's question.

"You managed to infiltrate our Collier family and abduct Xiaowu. This shows your skills are not to be underestimated. However, let me remind you, you're surrounded now, and you have no chance of escaping!"

Albert warned in a low tone.

"Without this woman, I might not be able to escape. But with her, your judgment means nothing!"

Speaking calmly, Connor kept the dagger pressed against Aida's neck. He added, "If any of you dares to make a move against me, I will kill her first. Try me if you don't believe it!"

Jiang Biao narrowed his eyes, observing Connor. He knew that Connor was also a martial artist, making him unwilling to take a reckless risk. If Connor really felt cornered and killed Aida, things would become complicated.

"Kid, I advise you to release my daughter as soon as possible!"

Albert's anger had subsided slightly. He called out to Connor in a low voice.

"I'm not in the mood to chat with you all right now. I suggest you cooperate and let me leave this place. Otherwise, I'll really kill this woman!"

Connor told Albert and the others in an unusually calm manner.
