Chapter 1020 Kill Wayne Blatt
Leia endured her fear, and with his sharp gaze locked on her, she nodded.
When a knock suddenly sounded from her door, Leia was shocked. She looked at the door and was not sure if she had locked it just now. "Yes?"
Queenie's voice cfrom outside. "Leia, why are your lights still on at this hour? Why aren’t you asleep?" "Mom, I just took a shower and I'm going to bed soon." Leia turned her head and looked at Wayne warily. He was still holding a knife in his hand.
She was afraid that he would lose control and rush out to stab Queenie. She could not afford forthat to happen. At least, not yet.
Queenie's voice sounded again from outside. "Okay, sleep tight! Remember to blow dry your hair before you go to bed so you won’t catch a cold." "I will, Mom. Good night!" Leia could not relax for fear that Wayne would act irrationally.
Queenie headed to the master bedroom after she heard Leia's reply.
Leia's nerves relaxed slightly when she heard the sound of footsteps going farther and farther away.
She squeezed a smile at Wayne and touched her belly with her hands." Wayne, I’m not trying to do anything. I'm just worried about you. You’re the father of the child in my belly. I don’t want anything to happen to you."
Wayne looked at her bulging belly. It was his child inside. He carefully looked into Leia's eyes and did not see fear or reluctance in them.
Leia had already concealed her true emotions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWayne's gaze softened as he said, "I'll be fine. Take care of yourself and my baby. Eat more."
After he said that, Wayne walked toward the balcony and jumped down the railing.
Leia breathed a sigh of relief and almost collapsed on the bed the moment
Wayne left her room. After she thought about it, she walked to the balcony and looked down. Wayne's figure had disappeared into the night and could no longer be seen.
The security system of Norman Residence was not triggered.
Leia was speechless at the useless alarm system that cost more than 100,000 dollars. She began plotting on how to stop Wayne.
She picked up the phone and called Hera Sanchez.
It was midnight, and Hera was out singing and dancing. Leia could hear that Hera was having fun and went straight to the point. "I now have an excuse to ask Bianca out, but you have to do something for me."
Hera walked to a quiet corner and raised her brows. "That won’t be a problem, but it’ll cost you." "I’ll play my part in asking Bianca out for you. If you had the ability, you would have taken care of her a long tago. Why would you needto help you?" Leia listened to the other party's words and said with disdain," As long as you can get it done, I'll be sure to pay you handsomely." "Givesome information before I agree to anything. I can't blindly do as you say." Hera lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said.
"Do you know Wayne Blatt?" Leia asked.
"Wayne Blatt? The nsounds familiar." Hera frowned.
"The second son of the Blatt family. Do you know who I’m talking about now?" Leia would not be in this state if she was not afraid of the Blatts and the evidence in Wayne's hands.
Of course, Bianca was to bltoo.
"Oh, I've heard of him. Isn't the Blatt family as good as gone?" Hera was well-informed about the major events in A City. The worst part was that the Blatts did not even know who did it to them.
When news about the Blatts broke, there was already no turning back for them.
"Yes, the family is doing poorly. The second son of Blatts is on the run but has recently returned to A City. I want you to kill Wayne Blatt. I’m open for
discussions on the price," Leia said cruelly.
The evidence in Wayne's hands and his cruelty were the biggest reasons why she could not tolerate him.
Leia hated being coerced. Wayne previously ruined her life, and now he wanted to ruin her wedding.
'Don't even think about it!’ "I can't make a promise right away, I have to think about it before I give you an answer." Hera then ended the call.
She walked back to the table and chased away swomen who were having fun singing and dancing.
Abel held a glass of red wine and raised his brows to look at her. "Now that you've driven all my beauties away, who's going to spend the night with me?"
Hera snorted and replied, "You still have me. Also, I have something important to discuss with you."
Abel stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms. He then gently rubbed her chin. "What do you want to tell me?" "Do you know who Wayne Blatt is?" Hera asked while she leaned into his arms.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had met Abel abroad. The last tshe saw Luke and Bianca, she was deported on the grounds that she illegally entered the country with false documents. She was even detained for a few days.
At that time, she met Abel who was locked up for the sreason.
However, he was not a stowaway. He had a strong backing, and the power he held was not something an ordinary woman like her could fathom.
They caught each other's eyes in the detention center, so they bonded after they were released. After two days of traveling in other countries, they realized that they both knew Luke after watching the news together.
The difference was that she admired Luke while Abel hated him.
Taking advantage of their relationship, Hera told Abel that he did not need to take his revenge on Luke.
If Luke retaliated, they would be harmed in the process, so she and Maxine persuaded him to take revenge on Bianca instead.
It would hurt Luke more if he lost the love of his life as compared to him getting hurt.
"Wayne Blatt? I don't know him. Unless he’s a pretty lady or someone powerful, I don't care." Abel shook his head and kissed Hera. Her fragrance reminded him of someone.
Hera lit a cigar for him and said, "Can you take care of him too?" "Why?" Abel was not one to care about others' life and death, but he wanted to know why. He was smart enough not to fall for her charm.
"You’ll get paid for it. We can set the price," Hera said. Abel was a big spender. Although Maxine had been supporting him, they still needed a lot of money to escape from A City after Bianca was taken care of.
Hera had no plans to spend the rest of her life with a man like Abel. She needed the money.
"Okay, get more information on this. I'll get it done." Abel agreed.
"I’ll reply to her now!" Hera said happily and wanted to tell Leia immediately so that she could prepare what was needed.
Abel was a man of his word. He had a lot of mercenaries, each of whom was an elite soldier. Wayne was nothing to him.
"Don't worry. You’ve agreed to accompanynow, so you can reply tomorrow." Abel did not let her leave. He threw his cigarette, picked her up, and headed upstairs.
