"My dear daughter: I really didn't expect that not killing you back then would leave me with such a big headache. If I'd known you and your damn mother would meet someone influential and get such a big opportunity, I would've sold you both for a good price.
I just asked you for a little pocket money, and you tried to kill me. You really are my daughter—this ruthlessness is just like mine.
But did you ever think, after putting up with so much and planning for so long, I'd still manage to escape?
Are you losing your mind right now?
My daughter, your father will teach you one more lesson: a centipede never dies easily.
Just wait for the present I'm about to give you."
The person on the other side finished reading the letter and didn't dare make a sound for a long time.
Cherry Miller took a deep breath and asked, "I've always trusted your abilities, but I'm really not satisfied with how this turned out."
"Miss Miller, I know we can't deny responsibility for this incident," the other party chose their words carefully and said, "But we didn't let him off easy, either."
"Oh?" Cherry asked coldly. "He's already escaped, and he even threatened me."
"Although he escaped, he must be seriously injured," the person on the other end of the phone hurried to say. "We set up three layers of pursuit, each one with heavy firepower. He’s just too cunning, and we missed the key point. But even so, he’s definitely badly hurt. There’s no way he got out unscathed. If he doesn’t get treated in time, he won’t last long."
Cherry Miller felt a bit relieved and said, "Only a dead man can keep his mouth shut forever."
"I’ve already reported to our boss. Since we failed this mission, all the commission you paid will be refunded to you."
Cherry Miller let out a light laugh. "No need to be so formal. Tell your boss, business is business, but there’s still honor among us. Keep the money—I want him to promise me one thing: when I need him in the future, he can’t refuse me."
"Alright, I’ll pass on the message." The person on the other end said a few more words before hanging up.
Cherry Miller stood by the window, gazing at the scenery outside, her eyes full of seriousness.
She used to keep sending money to that deadbeat dad, numbing his nerves, so he stayed quiet and didn’t cause trouble.
But now that things have fallen apart, he’s like a cornered rat desperate to fight back. If it really comes down to a life-or-death struggle, the one who’ll lose the most is her.
No, she couldn’t let him live, no matter what!
She had to find him before he made his next move.
Then, she’d take him out!
Without any hesitation, Cherry Miller pulled out her phone and dialed a number: "Thirteen, please connect me to Mr. Hans. This is Cherry Miller."
At this very moment.
H Airport, Country F.
Casey Coffey strutted into the VIP lounge at the airport, her bright red trench coat paired with a white jumpsuit, turning heads wherever she went.
She finished reading the magazine in her hand, and when she saw Yin Yuhang’s photo on the cover, her eyes burned with passion and determination.
"Yin, I’ve come for you! The man Casey loves is someone she’ll never let go of easily!" Casey stroked the magazine cover, as if she could really touch his face.
Oh, what a mesmerizing man!
Every angle, every look, is just intoxicating.
How could the world have such a perfect dream guy?
It’s like he was born just for Casey!
Probably only Casey could be a match for a man this perfect!
"Miss Casey, are we really just leaving like this? Shouldn’t we explain to the clan leader?" Casey’s bodyguard asked worriedly.
He was born and raised here, and had never left home before.
But now, for Casey, he bravely took this step into the outside world.
He had to protect Casey and wouldn’t let anyone hurt her.
He was willing to do this from the bottom of his heart.
"I’m already an adult—can’t I go out and have some fun?" Casey grumbled. "Haosen, if you don’t want to come, just go home. I didn’t force you, you wanted to come yourself."
Haosen immediately fell silent, staring at Casey with puppy-dog eyes.
Only then did Casey crack a smile. "Relax, my dad’s busy fighting for the clan leader position—he doesn’t have time to worry about me. Besides, I’m just out here looking for my true love, not causing trouble. What’s there to explain?"
