Chapter 943 It's Not Here
He sneered, with a hint of mockery on his face, "I didn't care about it even decades ago. Now I only
care about myself and want to live happily and comfortably. I don't want anything else. Even if I will be
punished after I die, I don't care at all."
Felix's face turned sullen when he heard these words.
Natalia frowned and asked, "Mr.Quill, you mean you don't want to help us?"
Mr.Quill glanced at her and said with a smile, "I really don't have the thing you want. If you want to kill
me, just do it. It's my destiny. I don't care." Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
"Do you really think that I don't dare to kill you?"
Just then, Felix rushed up and grabbed Mr. Quill's collar.
Everyone was shocked. Queeny hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "Felix, calm down!"
However, Felix had put up with this old man for too long. He couldn't stand him anymore.
He took out a gun and pointed it at Mr. Quill's head. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Do you believe that I
will shoot you?"
Mr.Quill squinted at him.
Even at this time, his face did not change. He still looked fearless, and there was even a mocking smile
on his face.
"You want to kill me? Just do it. Shoot my head. If I die, you will never be able to get the Celestial Book.
You have to watch the little girl you like to die in front of you! No one can save her, haha..."
He laughed crazily, and the veins on Felix's forehead stood out. He stared at the old guy with anger as
if he would pull the trigger immediately.
Seeing this, Natalia's face changed. She was afraid that he would really kill Mr.Quill in anger.
She hurried forward to stop him and said, "Felix, don't be impulsive!"
Queeny pulled Felix's sleeve and whispered, "He's not afraid of death. You can't threaten him with this.
Calm down."
Felix was rational after all. This matter was related to Queeny's life, so he didn't dare to mess it up.
Finally, he put down the gun angrily.
Natalia winked at Archie, indicating him to take Felix out to calm down.
Archie knew her well, so he understood what she meant. He immediately took Felix out.
After they all left, Natalia turned around and looked at Mr.Quill earnestly.
Mr.Quill's collar was grabbed by Felix just now. At this time, he was adjusting his clothes carefully.
Although he was an old man, he seemed to pay attention to his dignity very much.
After adjusting his clothes, he snorted heavily and threw the broken cigarette into the ashtray.
Natalia whispered to Queeny, indicating her to go out too.
After Queeny left, she took out a lighter and lit a cigarette for Mr.Quill.
Mr.Quill paused and looked up at her.
Natalia looked calm. She didn't mean to fawn on him, nor did she get angry at all.
He sneered and lit the cigarette with the fire in her hand.
After lighting the cigarette, he took a puff of it and then leaned against the chair comfortably. Looking at
Natalia, he said, "Don't think that you can persuade me just because you stay and fawn on me. As I
said, I don't have it. Even if you flatter me, I won't give it to you."
It was obvious that he wanted to be against them to the end.
Natalia lowered her eyes and kept silent for a while.
Then she said softly, "If you really don't want to give us it, we have no method to get it. After all, it's
yours. We can't take it from you by force if you are not unwilling."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help laughing at herself.
"Mr.Quill, I just think that although you are old, you are still like a young man who likes to do things on
impulse. You do whatever you want to do, regardless of the consequence. It seems that your
experience in the past eight years is useless."
Hearing this, Mr.Quill widened his eyes and glared at her.
"What did you say?"
With a faint smile, Natalia slowly walked to a chair and sat down, "Isn't it true?"
She chuckled, "Let me guess. The reason why you are unwilling to give us it is not that you want to
deliberately make things difficult for us, but that you are not keeping it in your hands, right?"
Mr.Quill's face changed immediately.
Natalia lowered her eyes and smiled again.
"I heard that your great-granddaughter suddenly disappeared some time ago?"
At this time, Mr.Quill seemed to realize that she was well prepared. He didn't even smoke. He put down
the cigarette and looked at her coldly.
"What do you want to say?"
"In fact, you are not keeping that thing, but your granddaughter is, right?"
Mr.Quill's face turned sullen.
"Nonsense! She didn't bring anything with her when she left, let alone the piece!"
"Oh? But it's said that she disappeared all of a sudden. Since she disappeared all of a sudden, how do
you know that she didn't bring anything with her?"
"I..."
Mr.Quill didn't notice the trap in her words and was choked. When he came to his sense, he realized
that she was setting a trap for him. His face flushed with anger.
"Well, you are a smart girl. You are as cunning as young Ariana Rose. But you are still too naive to get
something from me. You know what, you were not born when I was struggling in the business world. So
stop playing tricks. I won't be fooled."
Natalia shook her head.
"I don't want to fool you, nor do I want to get your words. In fact, now that you don't want to give us
what we want, there is no need for me to talk nonsense with you. But I feel that in this world, not
everything has the opposite side."
"You want to protect your great-granddaughter, and we want to find the Celestial Book to save Queeny.
There is no conflict between the two. What do you think?"
Mr.Quill pulled a long face.
Natalia continued, "I don't know what happened to you that made your great-granddaughter disappear
all of a sudden, but I know that it must have something to do with the Celestial Book. Let me guess.
She is not missing, but deliberately hiding, right? Someone told you that someone would come to ask
for this treasure in recent days, or he said something else to you, which made you determined not to
give it to us, right?"
Mr.Quill had a complicated expression on his face.
He really didn't expect that this little girl was able to figure out the deep thought that he had been hiding
from everyone for so long.
