With a smile, Chester suddenly moved closer to Eliza's ears and said nastily, "Eliza, you wanted to send a few of your subordinates overseas before this, right? I don't think I've told you that they haven't been able to leave the country..." 1
Eliza suddenly lifted her head, her eyes pretty and clear. She glared at him in shock. "What did you do?"
"Nothing much. All I did was refuse their visas. With their names and identities exposed, they can't go overseas for now. As you know, they might be in danger being in the country too. Having said that, I can easily do something to ensure their safety.” 1
Chester covered the cigarette in his mouth while lighting it. As usual, his remarks were harsh, but he said it with a gentle smile on his handsome face, like a n elegant young man.
However, his behavior was far from gentlemanly.
Eliza instantly grasped his meaning.
Her right hand was shivering with anger. She had an urge to slap him.
"You want to slap me, huh?" Chester raised his brows." Sure you can. But do think about the consequences."
Eliza snorted coldly. "I finally understand what it
means to care too much about the gains ahead without being aware of the dangers behind. You're brilliant, Young Master Jewell. Freya, Rodney, Sarah, and I probably became your pawns that night, and you're the ultimate winner. People like you who excel a t scheming are doomed to be lonely. No one will fall for you because you're too cold-blooded."
"It's alright. I don't need love. All I want is you," Chester mocked in a light-hearted manner.
Eliza scoffed, her eyes filled with endless hatred. "You think too highly of me. I’m no different from the women you've interacted with in the past. They have what I have. Or... are you obsessed with having two good friends to serve you? Sadly, Charity is dead. Otherwise, the two of us could occasionally accompany you at the same time. That must be interesting to you."
His Achilles' heel was exposed once again.
A hint of grimness flashed across his eyes.
