Angie’s makeup suited her very well. She stood there proudly with a hint of sharpness in her eyes.“It's you?”Yvette frowned.Angie smiled. “Today is my engagement. Of course, it’s me.”Yvette tossed her hair back and turned to leave.Angie called her and blinked.“I don't know them, but I know you. Do you want to introduce the guests to me?”Yvette chuckled. “Did you pay me? Why should I do that?”Then, she turned away.Angie’s tone was light. “Ms. Quimbey, can you tell me which company that man in the gray suit downstairs is the boss of?”Yvette subconsciously glanced downstairs. The man wearing an expensive gray suit downstairs had sharp eyes and was handsome with a few hints of restraint and caution as he looked around for something.She frowned slightly. She did not recognize him at all.She was just about to speak when she saw Mitchell coming up. He smiled.“Ms. Quimbey, what a coincidence! I just saw Mr. Sheldon looking all over for you!”Yvette muttered a curse a
Angie could not say how she felt right now. There was just a rush of anger that she had to vent out.Anger and shame welled up in her heart. She did not want to think about anything, did not want to care about what occasion it was. She started to fight the person in front of her.Her moves were extremely skillful. It was the experience she got after spending her childhood in the most dangerous places. However, the other party was a man with more fighting experience than her. He won against her in both technique and strength.The commotion at the door attracted the attention of many people.Angie’s identity was special. For a while, the noisy scene was surprisingly quiet, leaving only the sound of exchanging blows.Soon, a circle of people with the same size and aura as the man in the gray suit gathered around them.They all mingled among the guests just now and suddenly stood out from among the crowd. They were sharp and alert.“Bang—”The moment Angie was thrown to the ground,
Angie instantly understood the meaning of Mitchell’s words.It was originally an hour’s journey, but Caleb took so long to arrive. Why?How could Caleb not keep his word?Angie made it clear the benefits of her marrying Eric. Using Eric to open up the market in Mediania, they would have the final say on all relevant matters in the future.Caleb had been coveting this force for a long time. Now that there was an opportunity, whether he succeeded or failed, he still had to come in person.Furthermore, Angie had patted her chest in confidence and vowed that there would not be a problem.What was the result?She was too negligent, only to find out that her phone had already lost its signal. The phone signals were blocked, so she could not get in touch with the outside world.In that case, the outside world could not get in touch with her either.Caleb came over from South Asia and lost contact with his daughter. Who would he go find?Eric, of course.Angie’s face was cold and ha
At Mitchell’s words, Angie seemed to be drained of her strength. There was nothing left to support her body.She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, freezing her to the bone.She was clueless. Mitchell’s short words and plain tone were like a disaster to her.With Caleb’s reputation, almost no one dared to provoke him. He was an arms dealer on the surface, but he was not that clean in private either.Clean people could not get a foothold in countries abroad.He sold weapons and trafficked drugs.He sold people and also killed them.Caleb was a man who did any atrocity and was inextricably linked to terrorists.Countries hated him to the core, but without proof, he remained as stable as ever.No one knew where her father’s home base was. The international police had raided several bases through informants, but none of them were real.He basically never showed up, except this time...They unexpectedly lost to Eric.Angie felt like a fool for coming here and throwing
“Put your hands up, Caleb!”Someone shouted loudly.Caleb glanced around. He was surrounded by people wearing special police outfits.They came prepared.His heart continued to sink. He already knew that he was at the end of his rope.He subconsciously looked at the car. It was dark, so he did not know what he was looking at.In a few seconds, he made a decision and gritted his teeth, running in the nearest direction with his gun raised. His aura was intimidating, and the kind of reckless energy he had was most in line with his identity.He would not let people kill him that easily.He was Caleb, the king of Southeast Asia.He would not easily admit defeat.“Bang— Bang—”Firing several shots in quick succession, Caleb confirmed that he had made the hit and ran fast. However, in less than two minutes, he was shot in the calf.He fell to his knees with a thump.His face was pale.At that moment, everyone gathered around him, and countless guns were pointed at him. Smoke fil
It was a rare night for Nicole and Clayton to relax, so they went to watch a movie.Today’s movie was not very popular. Nicole and Clayton spent money on two tickets to buy out the entire hall.Clayton very firmly chose a horror film and claimed that the unrealistic feeling was a kind of enjoyment.Nicole looked at him like she had just seen a ghost.Clayton smiled helplessly. “Fine, it’s because no one watches this film. I don’t like places with too many people.”This reason was normal enough.Nicole smiled and agreed.They ate a lot of dessert before coming, so they could not eat any more snacks like popcorn.Clayton thought the same.Thus, the two of them walked in empty-handed, looking like a cool and reserved couple.A surrounding college couple watched. They were a little jealous and pouted in envy.“That guy is so good-looking, but he’s also weirdly stingy.”The guy said to the girl.The girl looked at her boyfriend and scoffed. “With his looks, it’s okay to be a li
The great Ms. Quimbey, who had never seen the world, always exaggerated.Nicole’s heart sank for a moment.“A gunshot? Are you sure?”Yvette smiled. “Of course, I’m not sure, but Lance said that it was a gunshot. He wouldn’t let me watch the show. Eric’s assistant, Mitchell, sent all the guests away, saying that the engagement was canceled. I’m guessing that the arms dealer’s daughter shot a gun in a fit of anger...”Nicole frowned. What are the consequences of shooting a firearm in Mediania?It was very troublesome.However...Nicole pursed her lips. “Did anyone get hurt?”Yvette paused. “I don’t think so. Lance said that no ambulance came, and there wasn’t anyone making noise. It’s probably fine. But I saw them take Angie away in handcuffs!”Nicole quietly sighed in relief.If the people from the Security Bureau took Angie away, this engagement was probably Eric’s revenge. It was his elaborate trap.His purpose was to trap Angie.Her identity was special, so there were na
The people passing by did not notice and only thought that they were lovers, or that the girl was drunk and was taken away by her boyfriend.As for the college couple earlier, the guy looked on with wide eyes. “She’s... The man beside her isn’t the same man from before...”The girl also nodded. “This man isn’t as good-looking as the last one. Sigh, love triangles are so complicated!”However, they had to admit that this woman’s temperament alone was out of their reach.It was not surprising that so many men chased after her.......Fifteen minutes passed.Clayton was speechless about this movie. Although it was suspenseful in the beginning, it gradually became a little boring. Even the plot was a cliche of hatred being born from love.He looked at the time, then glanced in the direction of the door.Nicole was not back yet.Clayton frowned and stood up after a while.He knew that Yvette was most likely looking for her to share the latest news of Eric’s engagement. No one cou
