Chapter 192: The check went down the drain
The next morning, Lauren woke up early, took the $3 million check she exchanged her body for, left the
Yin residence, and took a ride directly to the orphanage.
The gifts bought from the road were given to the children before they came to the dean's office with
Pei-Pei Zhou.
"Mother Superior, here's a check for three million dollars, enough for the children to live for a while."
Lauren placed the check in the hand of Dean's mother, who was overcome with emotion and tears.
Trembling, she locked the check in her desk drawer.
"Lauren, did the three million come from CEO Yin?"
When he came out of the dean's office, Zhou Peipei asked Lauren straightforwardly.
"He gave it to me, just in exchange for my stuff."
Facing her good friend, Lauren really didn't want to have anything to hide. But she did not directly tell
Zhou Peipei what kind of things she had gone through to get the three million.
"Si Si, you wouldn't have traded your body for this, would you?"
Zhou Peipei asked Lauren tentatively.
"Does it matter? Peipei, are you really that concerned about what's going on between me and
Matthew?"
I don't know why, but today Pei-Pei Zhou's attitude of breaking the sand to the end makes Lauren a
little disgusted.
"Lauren, I'm just concerned about you, do you think that a friend's concern will cause you any trouble?"
Lauren shook her head.
"Pei Pei, although we have not known each other for a long time, and the contact time is not a lot, but
to speak from the heart, I really regard you as my best friend, just some things that you can not
understand and understand, I carry really too many things, wait for a suitable time, I will tell you one by
one."
Faced with the sincerity in Lauren's eyes, Zhou Peipei couldn't ask any more questions, so he and
Lauren stopped a cab and left the orphanage.
"Brother driver, this direction doesn't seem to be the direction we're going, right?"
The car drove a distance, but Zhou Pei Pei felt that something was not quite right, this aspect is not at
all the direction they went. And the road is getting more and more remote.
"Miss Zhou, we are looking for Miss. Li, it just happens that you are also sitting in the same car, so we
can only delay you for some time, but don't worry, it won't take long."
For the driver knew his identity, Zhou Pei Pei looked surprised and uneasy at Lauren beside him.
Lauren turned to Zhou Pei Pei and gave her a reassuring smile, patting her soothingly on the back of
her hand a few times before stepping out of the car with the driver.
"Where is Shangguan Baocheng?"
Lauren's calm tone obviously surprised the man dressed as a driver a little, but there was also a hint of
admiration in his eyes.
"The lord is just ahead, Miss. Li, can you make sure your friend doesn't betray you? If not, I don't mind
scrapping her now."
A flash of viciousness under the man's eyes startled Lauren, who hurriedly blocked the man's front.
"Don't worry, my friend knows the importance, she won't mess around, so you'd better take me to
Shangguan Baocheng quickly. Your master will definitely not be a patient person."
Lauren's words made the man collect the coldness under his eyes and lead Lauren towards the
dilapidated factory in front of him.
"Master, the man has been brought. I'll go and watch the woman."
The man respectfully brought Lauren in front of Shangguan Baocheng, who today, even with large
sunglasses, could still see the fatigue on his face. This makes Lauren a little strange.
"Shangguan Baocheng, what exactly do you want to do by bringing me to this place in such a way?"
Lauren asked Shangguan Baocheng straightforwardly.
In response to her calling his name, Shangguan Baocheng's face turned a little gloomy.
"Lauren, is this how you treat your dad? Don't you forget that I'm your dad, and although you don't want
to admit that fact, you don't have the power to change what's destined to happen."
"Dad?" Lauren's sensual cherry lips rose slightly and curled into a sneer.
"For a cruel man who abandoned me and made me look bad at every turn, you are not qualified to
make me call you father, Shangguan Baocheng, say what you want, I don't want to waste my time on a
cruel man."
The impatience under Lauren's eyes, angry Shangguan Baocheng face blue, he stood up, directly in
the direction of Lauren, raised his right hand, a slap fiercely towards Lauren's body.
Lauren nimbly dodged Shangguan Baocheng's big hand.
"Shangguan Baocheng, I'm not going to give you the chance to beat me up, if you don't tell me what This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
you want again, I'll leave now, or if you want me to turn on the phone and let Matthew trace me to
where I am now. Allow me to remind you that Matthew has installed a surveillance device on my body."
Shangguan Baocheng's face suddenly became cold and appalling.
"Lauren, if it weren't for the fact that you have my blood in you, I would make sure you die right here,"
The sinister nature of Shangguan Baocheng made Lauren subconsciously shiver, but she did not avoid
Shangguan Baocheng's pair of calculating black eyes.
"You only have one more day, and if by this time tomorrow, in my mailbox, I don't see Matthew's bottom
dollar, I promise to have these orphans, immediately on the streets, and never to be adopted again until
they starve to death on the streets."
Lauren did not speak, thin lips slowly hooked up a shallow moon-like arc.
"Shangguan Baocheng, don't worry, for what I promised, I will definitely do it, but you have to
remember what you promised me, if you don't do it, I promise that even if I die, I will drag you to hell
with me."
Lauren's water-like black pupils locked tightly on Shangguan Baocheng's body.
"Master, it's not good, that woman escaped, I found her cell phone in the car, she has plucked
Matthew's phone, the call time shows ten minutes, I believe that by this time, Matthew already knows
about Miss. Li's coming to see you."
The man dressed like a driver, anxiously ran to Shangguan Baocheng's front.
"Snap."
Shangguan Baocheng a slap fiercely on the man's face.
"Useless guy, can't even watch a woman, hurry up and get out of here. lauren, don't let Matthew know
you are meeting with me or you won't be able to fulfill my request."
Finished speaking. Shangguan Baocheng quickly got into the car and disappeared within Lauren's
sight.
Lauren looked around the surroundings and couldn't help but sigh, such a remote place, there won't be
a car passing by, it seems he had to wait for Matthew to find himself.
Lauren, who thought of this, pressed on the pendant around her neck, and it immediately made a
ticking sound.
Lauren knew she had to do something before Matthew arrived, or she was sure to make the shrewd
man suspicious.
Lauren pulled off the diamond watch on her wrist with force, deliberately leaving a pulled mark on her
wrist, then pulled out her wallet in her arms again and threw it together with the diamond watch in the
grass around her more than one person high, deliberately wrinkling some of the shirt on her body to
look like she had been robbed.
It was only when this was done that Lauren crouched on the floor with a pained expression on her face,
waiting for Matthew to arrive.
After about half an hour, just when Lauren felt some numbness in her legs and wanted to move around,
a car came speeding by and stopped in front of her.
The car has not yet stood still, Matthew, in a suit, quickly rushed to Lauren's front and pulled her up
from the ground with force.
"How are you doing? Are you hurt?"
The off-the-cuff concern brought a smile to Lauren's face.
"Matthew, is this your concern for me? Are you afraid I'll get hurt?"
"Concerned about you?"
Matthew suddenly let go of his hand, legs numb Lauren, fell directly to the ground, the appearance of a
very lousy.
"Lauren, do you think I would unleash my concern on a pawn? I could care about any woman, except
you, because you don't deserve it."
Matthew's ruthless words instantly extinguished the only bit of hope in Lauren's heart.
With her left hand on the ground, she slowly rose from the floor, slightly moving her legs that were too
numb, before resting a pair of clear eyes on Matthew's body.
"If you didn't care about me, why would you come all the way here in a fast car, I counted the time, you
only spent fifteen minutes before I gave the signal, your company is a not too close distance from
here."
Matthew snickered, his smile was full of mockery, was contempt.
"Tell me, who did you come here to meet with?"
Matthew's large hand suddenly clasped around Lauren's neck. A pair of black pupils filled with cold
light, locked tightly on Lauren's face.
"I was hijacked here and the man grabbed the wallet and diamond watch I had on me and left."
Lauren told Matthew with a calm face, really glad that he had just thought of this good idea in a flash.
"Are you sure?" The calmer Lauren was, the more suspicious Matthew became.
"Matthew, don't ask me if you don't believe me, all I can give you is this fact. Believe it or not."
Lauren used her unused left hand to push Matthew away with force and walked straight towards his
car.
Just want to open the car door, but did not expect Zhou Peipei from inside out.
"Lauren, are you okay? Did you tell CEO Yin that you and that man were acquainted? Who exactly did
he bring you to see?"
Zhou Peipei's words. Let Lauren's face instantly turned pale, without turning around, she could feel, her
back, two eyes full of murderous aura looking at her.
"Peipei, how would I know that man? You're not scared silly, are you?"
Lauren is trying to salvage the situation as much as possible, but I don't know if Pei-Pei Zhou means it
or not.
"But I clearly heard that you and that man were going to meet his master, did I hear wrong?"
Zhou Peipei's words were like pouring oil on the fire, making Matthew's face, instantly, turn gloomy.
Walked directly to Lauren's front.
The hard lines of the knife carved handsome face, like a black cloud shrouded. A pair of lightning-fast
eyes vaguely bubbling with cold light, hostile locked in front of Lauren.
"Lauren, back at the mansion, I'll let you tell me the truth."
Matthew took Lauren's injured wrist and slammed her hard into the car.
"CEO Yin, did I say something wrong to upset you?"
Matthew's face did not change in the face of a woman who tipped her off to him.
"Miss Zhou, I appreciate you telling me about this, don't worry, I will pay you a certain amount of
money."
Forced by the cold air emanating from Matthew's body, Zhou Peipei sat in the car with an uneasy face,
holding the handlebars with both hands, restraining himself from the nausea caused by the excessive
speed of the car.
