The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 281

Fane lit up a cigarette and took a slow drag out of it before he spoke leisurely.

"Dumb?”

Xena grew angry when she heard that. "You're just a military man. I know you’re a skilled fighter. Ben had told me before. And so what? You’re just a bodyguard. You're not that great."

She splayed her arms here. "At any rate, I don't have money and I need money, and I want to get money. Was I wrong?" she continued. "I don't think I'm dumb.

I got 760 thousand bucks from the last lot alone, no?"

Since Fane had already found out, Xena decided to throw away all pretenses. "Do you understand? So what can you do to me? Heh. It would have been better for you to stay put. You're just digging your own grave by coming here!" 1

"You've been with Ben for such a long time now. Do you really not have any feelings for him?"

Anger sparked in Fane. Although he did not talk a lot t o Ben, he could see that Ben truly liked Xena, and intended to marry her.

"Hmph. Feelings? What good are feelings? Do they feed me?" 1

Xena folded her arms across her chest, a cruel smile

lighting her lips. "He's just a tool. If he wasn’t such a fantastic gamer, and if I, myself wasn't interested in games, I would have dumped him a long time ago."

However, she quickly thought of something: Fane came here alone. Did that mean that he did not have much evidence on her?

It would be even better if Fane just died here, and her identity would not be revealed. Furthermore, there was a possibility that she could swindle that 3 million bucks into her hands. Of course, the two Porsches were worth a pretty penny too. It would be nice if she could sell them off.

"Young Master Harvey, you can't let this punk leave this place alive now that he's here," she said simply as she thought of all this. "My cover will be blown otherwise!”

"Hmph. Looks like you still intend to put that Ben to some use!" Young Master Harvey said, grinning.

"Gee. Of course, it would be for the best if my cover wasn't blown. What if it comes in handy later?”
