Chapter 459 Time crunch
“It's almost okay,” Ashley says, stepping on Manager Jacob's shoulder and threatening, “No matter what your relationship with the boss is, you need to have life to enjoy it. If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll send out this document to see who will die more mysteriously!”
“No, I won't. don't worry. I won't dare to trouble you anymore.”
Manager Jacob's words are from the bottom of his heart. Ashley is such a terrible woman!
She's vicious and cunning. It's even more manly than a man.
“Remember, you have just been turned into a pig's head by your enemy. It has nothing to do with us.”
“Yes.”
“Very well.” Wipe off the blood on her hand, Ashley says to Claire, “Manager Jacob was hurt by his enemy. It's so tragic. Let's go to buy some fruit to comfort manager Jacob.”
“Well, okay.”
“Then let’s go.”
Leaving with Claire, the smile on Ashley's face gradually disappears. Claire looks at Ashley from time to time, her mind is uneasy.
“Why do you look at me like this? Do I have money on my face?”
Ashley turns around and looks in Claire’s eyes with a smile.
“Is it really OK for us to do so?”
“Of course, manager Jacob is in the wrong. We have evidence in hand. For the future, he can't even say a word.”
“No, I mean, you beat manager Jacob like that, won't he have any problems?”
Ashley hums, “To deal with that kind of people, I just don't think it's tough enough. It's necessary to beat him so hard that he can have a lesson.”
Slightly pursed her lips, Claire hesitates and opens her mouth.
“Ashley, your means are becoming more and more violent recently.”
Ashley herself also realizes that during this period, she is becoming impatient. Instead of violence, it is more straightforward.
There is a complex light at the bottom of the eyes. Ashley lowers her voice and says, “Because there is not much time left for me, I have to be more quickly.”
“What time is running out?”
“The time to send you home, since I know your secret, I will help you to the end, so that you can continue to be a happy woman.”
Claire knows that Ashley is perfunctory.
Everyone has his own choice. Claire has no right to talk about it.
But this doesn't affect Claire's worry about Ashley, a strong and arrogant woman like Ashley, will put everything in her heart, which is heartbreaking and helpless.
With a sigh, Claire says, “No matter what you are doing, don't force yourself.”
Ashley patted her chest and said, “Don't worry about me. I'm Ashley. I'm a stronger woman than men. I know how to do it.”
“But no matter how strong you are, you are a woman after all.”
“What's wrong with women? Should they be born weak?”
“No, women should protect themselves and not act rashly. Are you right?”
Seeing Claire changing her way to persuade her, Ashley smiles and rubs her hair.
“Don't worry. I've been in the circle for many years and know how to protect myself. Don't worry about me.”
Ashley doesn't want to continue this topic, and Claire doesn't insist on it, so she says, “Just as I expected.”
“What is it?”
“You're really a gangland boss.”
Ashley is stunned, then pretends to be a fierce expression, asks, “You already know my true identity, are you afraid?”
“Not afraid but subverted the impression of underworld in my heart.”
“Well, in the underworld, there are people who are passionate and righteous, aren't there?”
Claire shakes her head bravely and says, “No, it turns out that the female boss can also be stupid.”
“Who are you saying is stupid? I think you have forgotten my strength!”
Ashley says, and reaches out to Claire
.
Claire dodges left and right and runs away screaming.
But the Ashley in the back, her complexion is gloomy.
...
With what Ashley needs, Leo comes to city B.
At this time, city B is the most beautiful time of the year. The streets are full of beautiful scenery.
Roadside pedestrians either walk leisurely in the sea of flowers or take photos under the trees in front of the flowers, all show their happy faces.
A black car speed passes from the side of the road, splashing the fallen leaves on the ground, turning a corner, and soon disappears.
Different from the beautiful scenery outside the car, the air pressure in the car is very low, so low that even flies dare not fly over.
With his hands folding in front of him, Leo closes his eyes gently and is silent.
Next to him, Conan presses his lips tightly and looks at the happy smile of the people in the street. He thinks it is dazzling.
Tinkling bell—
The phone rings suddenly, like a knife, breaking the peace.
Leo looks up at Conan and lightly nods his head.
It is suggested that Conan hurriedly takes out the tracking device and makes an “OK” gesture to Leo.
“Hello?”
“Dear Mr. Howard, how are things prepared?”
“It's all ready.”
“Very well.”
“And how the people I want?”
“She's safe. As long as you give me something, you'll see the woman you're thinking about.”
“Where to trade?”
“I'll give you a contact address, and you let someone deliver it at the appointed time.”
“That's not good. What can I do if you repent and run away with the thing?”
“You are a famous man. Can you let me take advantage of you? Don't worry. When I get something, I will give you information. It will definitely make you meet again.”
“I don't believe you.”
“It's a pity that even if you don't believe me, you can only do what I say.”
After speaking, the woman hangs up.
“How arrogant!”Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Leo Howard frowns, there is a kind of impulse to kill.
Soon, Leo's mobile phone received a text message with the time and address on it, indicating that only Leo is allowed to make an appointment, otherwise the cooperation will fail.
Looking around at Conan, Leo asks, “How is it going this time?”
“There already is something!” Although progress has been made, Conan does not have any relaxed expression, but a little more chagrin. “But I just searched a general address. This woman must be hiding in this area. If I could call again, I'd find this woman!”
The eyes narrow and Leo says, “Unfortunately, there is no next time. The other side asks us to make a deal now, and I need to go alone. “
Conan strongly opposed it, says, “It's too dangerous. We don't know whether the other side is our enemy or friend. If this is the trap of Juan?”
“I don't worry about the relationship with Juan. I just want to know if Claire is safe. I'm worried about her after she disappeared so long.”
Speaking of this topic, Conan lowers his shoulders and says in a low voice, “I miss my mother very much, too.”
