The driver nodded and said, “That’s true.”
If the boss was in a good mood, their days as subordinates would be better.
Not only was Edwin happy, but Caroline, who rarely had free time, was also in a good mood tonight. She was quite relaxed and happy.
This good mood lasted until she returned home. Then, she received a message from an old friend.
[I knew you wouldn’t die so easily.]
An encrypted text message was sent to a private phone number that she had specially left behind in the private restaurant.
Before Caroline could think of a response, the next message immediately followed.
[If it’s safe, why didn’t you contact us earlier?]
Caroline looked at the message, sighed slightly, and replied honestly, [Because
I’m not sure if you guys are still willing to be related to me.]
In the private restaurant, all the lights were turned off, leaving only a street lamp in the corridor.
Henry, who had already changed out of his chef’s uniform and was wearing a trendy outfit, revealed a mocking smile.
[Since you don’t believe us so much, why did you come to the private restaurant? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll report you?]
Those old fellows had paid a huge price to eliminate Luo Ling, the Goddess of War. Therefore, in order to eliminate the root of the problem, they would definitely give up some benefits that would make people’s hearts flutter when they knew that Luo Ling was still alive.
Caroline didn’t look worried at all when she saw this. [Because I saw the summoning order.]
In the previous incident, many people who followed her and trusted her on the surface were involved in the storm and were purged one by one. In the worst case, they lost their lives, and in the least, they lost their futures.
Thus, Caroline wasn’t sure if Henry and the others were willing to take the risk for her. Secondly, she was also hesitant about whether she should drag Henry and the others into danger. Until that day, when she was searching for news on the dark net, she saw an inconspicuous summoning order.
On the surface, the summoning order looked like a very ordinary missing person notice, but there was a secret code that only a few people could understand. Henry and the others were gathering their old partners to prepare for revenge for her.
The moment she saw the summoning order, Caroline could not allow herself to hesitate anymore, so she planned tonight’s trip.
Of course, according to the original plan, tonight’s dinner had nothing to do with Edwin. But because of what happened this afternoon, she had no choice but to use Edwin as a shield.
After much consideration, Caroline also began to try to let Edwin slowly walk into her world, which was why she took the risk to bring him into that private restaurant.
After Henry saw Caroline’s reply, he snorted softly. [So, you think we’re useful, that’s why you contacted us?]
Caroline said with a venomous tongue, [No, I think that instead of letting you go crazy outside, it’s better to tie you up with a chain. That way, even if you want to bite someone, you’ll be able to bite more accurately.]
After all, Henry and the others didn’t grow up in a world that followed the rules. Once they let loose, no one knew what the consequences would be.
[You’re as rude as ever.]
Although Henry was complaining, the smile on his face proved that he was not in a bad mood.
Caroline replied, [This is probably the only way to prove that I’m the real person.]
Henry pouted. [Heh, I can recognize a scourge like you even if you turn into ashes.]
These people had suffered a lot since they were young. They had thought that they would all turn into mud and rot in the smelly puddle. However, one day, Luo Ling suddenly appeared. Not only did she pull them out of the mud, but she also washed the mud off their bodies and made them look like normal people.
After all his past experiences, Henry was unwilling to show his face in public after he got away. He only wanted to live in a corner and be a cook. However, this didn’t mean that he could watch Luo Ling be framed or even lose her life.
Luo Ling had sacrificed so much for the country, and she cared so much about the Pritz family’s glory, but in the end, she was framed by someone she trusted, and she was labeled a traitor, despised by everyone.
Protecting the country and restoring the glory of the Pritz family, this was Luo Ling’s faith, and Luo Ling was their faith!
Therefore, in order to restore Luo Ling and the Pritz family’s reputation, Henry and the others were willing to pick up the knives they had put down and swing them at those villains.
The two of them exchanged a few more words before Caroline finally said, [In short, no matter what you’re planning, stop your plan first..]
