Rachel refused Lukas’ offer to let the driver take her to the Befamily’s house.
Instead, she took a cab and went alone.
The cab drove at a steady speed in the dark.
There were many cars on the road, and the streets were lively.
Rachel looked out of the half
-opened window as her eyelashes drooped slightly.
Suddenly, Victor’s words flashed through her mind.
She wondered whether Victor was telling the truth or not.
‘If the car accident was really meant for Joey, who was behind the attack? Could that person be Odin’s enemy? Or was it because of something else?”
Rachel knew that as long as Joey was in Sue Garden, no one would dare to lay a finger on him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, she was worried because the person behind the attack hadn’t been caught yet.
Rachel quickly gathered her thoughts and dialed a number.
The phone rang only once, and the person on the other end said sleepily, “Boss, although it’s only ten o’clock at night in Apliaria, please don’t forget that it’s only three in the morning here!”
Quintin glanced at the ton the phone screen and had a pained look.
He had only slept for an hour and a half.
But because of what had happened four years ago, Quintin didn’t dare to mute his phone when he went to sleep.
And just in case, he specifically set the ringtones for Rachel and Joey to the maximum.
“Has the alliance kept you busy?” Rachel could tell from his tone that he was tired.
Quintin yawned and switched on the bedside Lamp.
As the light stabbed his eyes, he becalert.
“It’s okay.
I just took on a small task, and that’s the reason I went to bed late.”
“Took on a small task? Are you falling short on money?”
Quintin touched his nose and smiled awkwardly.
“The New Year is just around the corner.
I want to be ready with lucky money for Joe.”
Obviously, Quintin wouldn’t admit that he had no money.
It was very embarrassing!
In the past four years, he seldom did
any tasks.
Except for snecessary and unrequited ones, he didn’t save much money and had been spending the money he had previously saved.
Since Joey learned how to program, and showed his outstanding talent in hacking, so as to increase his interest, Quintin bet with him several times.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQuintin worked hard to teach Joey.
As a result, the kid was incredible.
However, Quintin also suffered huge losses because of the sincredible talent.
He lost several bets and almost lost all of his money to Joey.
Quintin couldn’t understand why would a three-year-old need so much money?! And Joey wanted only his money! The more Quintin thought about it, the more depressed he got.
“Boss, let’s stop talking about it.
What’s wrong? Why did you callso late?”
“I need your help.
Find out who carried out a hit in Apliaria recently.” Rachel remembered that Quintin had earlier informed her that the surveillance cameras were broken on the road where the accident had taken place.
At first, they both thought that Victor was behind it and that he had known that someone was waiting there.
But thinking back on what Victor told her today, Rachel realized that someone else had broken the cameras.
Victor had been well prepared, so he had already secretly arranged for bodyguards.
However, he didn’t know that they would attack in the form of a car accident, and that was why his men weren’t alert during the drive.
