Hebrew sauntered in and casually thumped himself down on the couch before ordering the secretary to brew some coffee, as if he were at home.
Biting her lip, the secretary stared at Luo Anning and turned around to make some coffee after gaining Luo Anning’s approval.
“Shoot. Why are you here?” Luo Anning broke the silence.
Hebrew placed his legs on the coffee table, with one over the other. “Young Madam Rong, have you forgotten? As promised, I’ve already stolen all the information of MK Bank but you’ve yet to fulfill your promise to me. Are you thinking of going back on your word now?”
Hebrew sounded a little menacing, as if he would kill her immediately if she were to say yes.
Luo Anning burst into laughter and tried to placate him softly. “Mr. Hebrew, I’m right here. If I go back on my word, you would have been thrown out by the security officers and not sitting here in my office. Besides, the matters regarding MK Bank have already been delayed for so long and the purpose of that is to make them dig their own grave. Don’t you find it thrilling to watch your enemy suffer?”
She did make some sense. Despite having been convinced by her, Hebrew still refused to budge. “What about the two benefits that you offered me? You should at least give me something nice first, shouldn’t you?”
Seeing the greed in his eyes, Luo Anning chuckled and said, “No hurry, Philly Bank is the only one working with us now that we’ve gotten rid of MK Bank. As for the second benefit, are you sure it’s appropriate to fulfill it now?”
“Shit!” Hebrew cussed distastefully. God knows how long he had been thinking about those two benefits for.
He was just waiting to devour the piece of meat and yet, he was told that it wasn’t inappropriate to have it now!
How infuriating!
Despite feeling reluctant, Hebrew still left after being placated by Luo Anning.
…
Luo Anning did not expect to run into Luo Shaodong at the entrance of the office. Actually, Luo Shaodong had long been waiting at the door of the office.
Upon sight of him, Luo Anning chuckled before her face grew sullen again.
Luo Shaodong was only a year younger than Luo Xinya and was currently attending university in England. He was exceptionally emotional about the fact that his cousin had put his sister behind bars.
Upon sight of Luo Anning exiting the company with her bodyguards, he smiled. Luo Anning did not intend to talk to him because just like Luo Xinya, he was up to nothing good!
The memories of her childhood would forever remain as a trauma for her, including Luo Shaodong!
“Your bodyguards follow you everywhere you go. Is that because you’ve got too many enemies so you’re afraid of being assassinated?” Luo Shaodong gibed.
Luo Anning initially wanted to just turn around and leave. However, she got all riled up after hearing his derisive tone. She turned around and retorted sarcastically, “Yeah, I’m scared of those who have their conscience blinded by money and interests, and worried that they might encroach on my assets. Don’t you agree, my cousin?”
She emphasized the word “cousin” and one would be able to tell the menace and resentment in her tone if they were to listen carefully.
She had never tried to hide her resentment towards Luo Zhiquan and his family.
Luo Shaodong’s face grew sullen and pale. His expression changed extremely quickly and he said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
After pausing for a moment, he said in annoyance, “Since we’ve already met, why don’t we go have some coffee, cousin?”
Coffee?
She did not think that she could sit down calmly and have some coffee with him. She would need a ton of manners to hold herself back from splashing coffee at him!
