Soon after they left, a loud explosion was heard from the site of the previous gun battle.
A dozen men in black didn’t even look back; it was clear that the loud noise was the sound of the overturned SUV exploding.
...
European castle.
A sizzling-hot femme fatale was rushing through the castle.
The sensual woman was none other than Irene, the cold-blooded killer beside Bella Sutton.
Irene walked into the main house, knocked on Bella Sutton’s bedroom door, and respectfully spoke, "Miss."
Bella Sutton heard the voice and softly said, "Come in."
Irene pushed the door open, walked to Bella Sutton’s side, and immediately knelt down, "Miss, the mission failed."
Dressed in a seductive red silk nightgown, Bella Sutton was sitting at her vanity when she paused upon hearing Irene’s report.
She turned around, her fierce eyes fixed on Irene, and coldly asked, "What did you say?"
Irene bowed her head, her voice trembling, "I’m sorry, Miss."
"Useless!" Bella Sutton shouted in anger, kicking the chair next to her, "You can’t even handle one woman!"
The chair kicked by Bella Sutton flew straight towards the kneeling Irene.
Irene remained unmoved, enduring the heavy blow of the chair.
Bella Sutton stood up, her eyes narrowed fiercely as she looked down at Irene, "Speak, what exactly happened!"
Irene didn’t dare hesitate, quickly reporting what she knew, "It was Virgil Davies, our people had succeeded, but his men suddenly appeared and kidnapped Lily."
Bella Sutton paced, muttering to herself, "Virgil Davies? Why would he intervene to kidnap that woman? What does he want? Could it be..."
At a certain possibility, Bella Sutton’s expression changed immediately.
She turned back, her icy gaze sweeping over Irene, "Virgil Davies suddenly took action, what about our people? Why didn’t they receive any news? Hmm?"
Irene looked up at Bella Sutton, "This was another task given by Virgil Davies, our people didn’t receive any notice, so they couldn’t inform us."
"Useless!" Bella Sutton fumed, kicking Irene hard, "What use are you useless people to me? Not only do you fail to get any news, but the person you captured was snatched by Virgil Davies. Absolutely worthless!"
Bella Sutton’s kick struck Irene’s chest with full force.
A trickle of blood appeared at the corner of Irene’s mouth.
She wiped it away respectfully, acknowledging her mistake, "Miss, it’s my fault."
Irene was a female assassin trained by Bella Sutton since childhood, capable of fighting ten men alone, but loyal and steadfast as a rock.
Bella Sutton coldly looked at Irene and commanded, "Inform the informants on Virgil Davies’ side, find an opportunity to eliminate that woman!"
Upon hearing this, Irene trembled even more.
Yet she had to relay the truth to Bella Sutton.
"Miss, I’m afraid it’s impossible. Virgil Davies already knows it was our people who were trying to kill Lily before, if we act now, we’ll expose our hard-infiltrated informant."
Hearing this, Bella Sutton’s anger flared again, directly overturning the vanity in front of her.
...
Meanwhile, in the underground casino in Mexico, Lily was quietly brought here.
In the dim room, the unconscious Lily lay slumped on the red cashmere carpet.
The cashmere carpet was soft and comfortable, but the glaring red was more like the color of blood.
After some unknown time, Lily slowly opened her eyes.
The dim light allowed Lily to vaguely see six or seven people in the room, and leading them was a man slowly shaking a glass of red wine.
He had an exceptionally handsome face, but it displayed hints of terrifying menace and icy indifference.
Even so, his wine-shaking movement remained enchanting and captivating.
Noticing Lily’s gaze, the man’s blood-red eyes, filled with a touch of amusement, glanced her way.
While swirling the wine glass, he playfully spoke, "Awake?"
Hearing the man’s voice, Lily woke up abruptly.
This wasn’t her dream!
She had been kidnapped!
Realizing this, Lily quickly got up from the ground.
She looked at the man and questioned, "Who are you? Why did you capture me?"
The man laughed wickedly, handing the wine glass to the woman whose clothes were half undone beside him, "You got it wrong, beauty, how could I have captured you? I am the one who saved you."
He said as he stood up and walked closer to Lily, "Beauty, without me, you would have already died at Bella Sutton’s hands."
As the man approached, Lily could see his face more clearly.
The man wore a black V-neck tight-fitting T-shirt, with well-toned abs that were made even more enticing through the T-shirt.
His sun-kissed skin emitted an equally captivating glow.
Lily’s heart beat uncontrollably.
Her cheeks flushed as she shyly admired the man’s handsome features, softly asking, "Who is Bella Sutton?"
The man looked at Lily, his long fingers lightly brushing her cheek, "A woman related to Adrian Davies!"
Lily’s heart raced even faster.
She gazed at the man, unaware she asked, "Why does she want to kill me?"
The man withdrew his hand, his sinister gaze coldly fixed on Lily, "Beauty, you were Adrian Davies’ fiancée for four years, now that you ended the engagement, she naturally wants to eliminate any potential threat to her becoming Adrian Davies’ woman."
Lily looked at the man, sincerely expressing her gratitude, "I see, thank you for saving me."
After speaking, without waiting for the man to reply, Lily played with captivation and curiosity, using the strategy of the elusive bait, "Can I leave now?"
The man, having encountered countless people, naturally saw through Lily’s simple trick.
However, he didn’t mind playing along with this ’elusive bait’ tactic.
"No rush." The man looked at Lily, leaned close to her ear, and spoke lazily, "I would love to see what talents a woman who was Adrian Davies’ fiancée for four years possesses."
Lily: "..."
The man saw Lily’s embarrassed face, continuing to speak, "But before that, I would like to know, why did Adrian Davies suddenly cancel the engagement with you? Hmm?"
