Chapter 35
The man who came down from the car looked to be almost 30 years old. He had dark skin, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. There was an index-finger-long scar on his forehead, and his eyes carried sharp killing intent.
Blair glanced at the familiar face and was surprised for a moment.
He recognized the man. It was Hugh Payne, the chairman of Monafett’s Earl Security Group.
Hugh also had another identity, which was the boss of the largest mercenary corp in Monafett.
Blair met him once five years ago in Santaviz. The scar on his forehead came from that battle.
Hugh got down from the car and stood straight in front of Mable. He greeted her with respect, “Boss, long time no see.”
‘Boss?’
Blair looked sharply at Hugh. ‘He calls Mable his boss?’
“What brings you here?” Mable asked Hugh.
“Rahman said you’re here by yourself and asked me to assist you.”
Rahman was worried about Mable. So after some thinking, he finally contacted Hugh and asked him to come over to assist her.
It was also to guard against Blair.
Mable raised her eyebrow. Rahman was quite thoughtful as she happened to be short of a driver at the moment.
Hugh opened the car door for Mable. Just as she was about to get in, Blair got down from his car and pulled her hand.
“Mable!”
Seeing this, Hugh immediately flashed in front of Mable with a murderous aura. “Let go!”
Blair was unmoved. He was fierce and cold.
Mable patted Hugh’s shoulder. “Relax. It’s fine.”
Hugh took two steps back without saying anything.
Blair questioned Mable coldly, “What’s your relationship with him?”
Mable was calm. “As you can see, he’s one of my men and my friend.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Blair looked even colder.
He had just driven Rahman away, and now Hugh was here.
‘Why are there so many wild men around her?!’
Mable shook off Blair’s hand impatiently. “Blair, do what you need to do and stop pestering me, okay?!”
Blair found that it sounded familiar.
He seemed to have said the same thing to her before.
“Okay. I won’t pester you, but you must return to my place at night!”
Blair suppressed the anger in his heart and tried his best to speak calmly.
He was afraid Mable would want to run away from him even more if he pushed her too hard.
“We’ll see.”
With that, Mable got into Hugh’s car.
Blair made a call after she left.
“Have someone keep an eye on Frank Jefferson and also send some people over to keep an eye on the Jefferson Residence…”
Frank wanted to have Mable killed two years ago. Now that she was back, he would definitely be making small moves in secret.
…
Marissa and Dane’s wedding did not go ahead in the end because of Mable’s appearance.
After she fainted, Marissa was sent to the hospital and woke up not long after.
“Agnes, that b*tch! She ruined my wedding. I’m going to kill her! I must kill her!
“Dane is mine. I won’t allow her to snatch my man away. Never!
“Agnes, I want you to die. I’m going to crush you!”
Marissa cursed like crazy as soon as she woke up.
Frank patted her shoulder. “Riss, have you forgotten my teachings? This is more the reason for you to be calm.”
“Dad, how can I be calm? Today was supposed to be my wedding. I—”
Frank held his daughter’s hand. “With me here, no one can take away what belongs to you.
“She was lucky she didn’t get killed two years ago. I don’t believe she’ll be so lucky this time!”
Frank looked ruthless as he continued, “Don’t worry, Riss. This time, I’ll make sure she dies!”
“Mm. Thank you, Dad.”
Frank walked out of the ward after calming Marissa’s emotions.
