Skadi placed the duck meat that was a specialty of Xanthalos on the table. “This is a
specialty from Xanthalos, handmade by my best.
friend!”
Seeing Skadi looking upset, Hera could not help but ask, “What
happened? Did someone try to scam you with the car accident?”
Skadi plopped down on the sofa frustratedly. “Yes, that old man tried
to extort 80,000 dollars from me!”
Hera could not help but find it amusing. “You got scammed? Aren’t
you the kind of person who would’ve sent him straight to the Inspection Office?”
Skadi’s temper was not to be trifled with. There were only a few of the
wealthy second-generation elites in Jonford who dared to provoke
her.
“I was speeding, and Royal Bay is filled with surveillance cameras.
Sending him to the Inspection Office would only backfire on me,”
Skadi replied helplessly.
Helena sipped her medicine and asked, “Don’t you have a dashcam?’
Skadi only noticed Helena’s presence then, and her expression turned
cold. However, she noticed a signal from Hera and wondered what
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe meant. Had they reconciled?
Skadi was momentarily stunned. “You… You two?”
Hera smiled and said, “You’ve seen it yourself. We’ve made up.”
Skadi rolled her eyes and then smiled. “Congratulations, then.”
Hera took two bottles of drinks from the refrigerator, walked toward
the sofa, and handed one to Skadi as she asked, “You still haven’t
answered Helena’s question. Don’t you have a dashcam in your car?”
Having a dashcam but still being scammed for 80,000! If this happened to anyone else,
she might believe it, but the fact that it happened to Skadi was truly outrageous.
Skadi unscrewed the bottle cap and took two sips of her drink before
replying, “That old man just walked straight toward the road without
looking. He didn’t even glance to see if there were any cars. I didn’t
expect him to cross the road without checking at all.
“I didn’t manage to break in time. It’s like he was intentionally risking his life for money!”
Hera could not help but laugh. “Well, that’s unfortunate, but you did
speed in a residential area.”
Skadi took off her shoes and crossed her legs. “You should be more
careful when driving next time. That old man looks like a repeat
offender!” she said with a solemn expression.
Hera retorted, “I’ve always been careful when driving!” Unless it was an emergency, she
had always adhered to the speed limits posted on
the signs.
Helena suddenly spoke up right then, “People living in Royal Bay are
either rich or wealthy. How could someone pull a scam here?”
Hera looked at Skadi, who shrugged and said, “Who knows? That old guy didn’t look
wealthy at all. He’s probably an outsider who sneaked
in!”
Hera pinched Skadi’s cheek, laughing. “Alright, don’t be angry. I’ll talk
to the property management tomorrow and get him kicked out!”
Skadi nodded and took out her phone, saying, “Let me show you live. footage of Bianca’s
boxing match!”
The two sat on the sofa and watched the video recording of Bianca’s
boxing match.
Hera sometimes frowned, sometimes cheered. It was as if she were
watching a live broadcast.
Two bright lights shone into the yard from outside the villa just then.
It was the headlights of Melody’s car. The lights went out, and then
Melody walked toward the basement after getting out of the car.
“Does this woman always stay at your house?” Skadi asked
cautiously.
Hera shook her head and said, “Most of the time, she stays in hotels.
Occasionally, she sleeps in the guest room.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSkadi frowned and asked, “Is she with Nash every day?”
“Yeah.” Hera calmly nodded, showing no signs of jealousy. She already knew that there
was only a professional relationship between
Nash and Melody. Nash was trustworthy, and Hera trusted him
completely.
Skadi hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something but then
held back. Last time, she almost had a falling out with Hera because
she meddled too much.
Hera understood what Skadi was thinking and smiled, saying, “Don’t
overthink it. No need to worry. I’ve known Nash for a long time, and I
know him better than anyone else!”
Skadi could only smile faintly at Hera’s reassurance. “Don’t tell me you two haven’t been
intimate yet?” she then asked in a hushed tone.
Hera blushed slightly, thinking about the times before when their
passionate moments were interrupted. She felt a bit frustrated. “Don’t
bring it up. Every time we’re about to get intimate, something. unexpected happens. I’m
starting to have a complex about it!”
Skadi could not help but laugh. “I suggest you settle things with him
sooner rather than later. With other women around all the time, who
knows if feelings might develop over time?”
