Chapter 468: Waiting To Feed The Sharks
Chapter 468: Waiting to Feed the Sharks
From the moment he took off his hat, Cheyenne knew his intention was to obtain the Thirteen Needles.
How could she, a person with no conscience or morals, possibly hand over this set of needle techniques to him?
The power of the Thirteen Needles was immense, and if it fell into the hands of someone with ill intentions, it would undoubtedly lead to endless trouble.
This was also the reason why the Edwards family had to choose a patriarch to learn the final stage of this needle technique.
Cheyenne sneered and pretended to be confused, saying, "Granduncle, I don't understand what you're talking about. I don't have the Thirteen Needles on me. If you don't believe me, you can have someone search me!"
She was still wearing the same dress as before, without even a bag, let alone a book. She couldn't hide a cellphone, not to mention a whole book.
Adrian glared at her pale but still smiling face with a sinister look in his eyes and threatened her coldly:
"Of course, I know you don't have the book on you, but you have learned it. It's in your mind. Write it down!"
Cheyenne couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Write it down? Are you kidding me?"
"I've forgotten it! Granduncle, think about it. I've gone through so many terrible things recently, encountered significant scares, and my mind has been traumatized... Science has proven that memory can be impaired in such situations."
Did she look like she had been scared, with her lively and agile tongue? Even though Adrian knew she was talking nonsense, he was still powerless against her. "Grandniece, don't think you can fool me so easily. If you don't write it, I might actually make you feed the sharks!" he said with an eerily sinister voice.
Cheyenne patted her chest in a "relieved" manner and blinked her watery eyes innocently, "Granduncle, if you keep scaring me like this, I might forget even more." After she finished speaking, an extremely awkward rumbling sound came from her stomach.
"Granduncle, I have low blood sugar. If I get too hungry and don't receive enough nutrition for my brain, I won't have the mood to think about needle techniques." "Just wait to feed the sharks. You want to eat? There's no way you're getting any food!"
He angrily left.
Behind him, Cheyenne let out a mournful sound, "Granduncle! I'm your grandniece, after all. We are related. At least let me be full before killing me." Granduncle heartlessly left without paying any attention to her request.
News of Cheyenne being kidnapped by the gang had spread, and everyone assumed she wouldn't be able to return.
The happiest people among them were Malaya, and Nora.
George couldn't express what he was feeling at the moment... Looking at the high-end nutrients brought by his daughter on the table, he couldn't find any joy. Instead, he felt worried.
Selah was dead, and her daughter Cheyenne was also dead... The secret back then would remain hidden forever.
That man would never know.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Thinking about this, he finally felt relieved and tiredly stood up, saying, "You chat. I'm going to rest upstairs for a while."
The mother and daughter, who were discussing how to kick Layne out of the Lawrence Villa and take it over, suddenly noticed the melancholy expression on George's face, causing Malaya's smiling face to gradually stiffen.
Seeing his lonely figure walking away, she snorted.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Nora finally realized something was wrong and ended the conversation, turning her attention to her mother's changes.
Gritting her teeth, Malaya wiped her
moist eyes and angrily exclaimed, "What else could it be? Can't you see that your father still cares about Cheyenne? When he heard we were planning to sell the villa, he got
upset!"
She had quit her job and stayed with him for over a decade, giving birth to a son and a daughter. But in the end, he was still thinking about that foolish woman!
Nora also glared at her father, noticing how he had become colder towards her since Cheyenne won first place in the art competition.
Why? Was he regretting his decision to kick out Cheyenne before?
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to regret since Cheyenne was already dead, ha-ha-ha!
Nora was abruptly brought back to reality by her ringing phone. She glanced down and saw that it was Teagan calling.
Quickly, she raised a finger to her mother, Malaya, signaling her to be quiet.
"Hello, Teagan, is there something you need?" Nora asked.
From the other end of the phone came Teagan's angry voice. Even from a distance, Malaya could hear her future son-in-law's rage and was startled.
"What's going on? Did you do something wrong to offend Mr. Parry? Hurry up and apologize, or your father won't spare you if there's any trouble with the engagement!" Malaya urged. Nora clenched her fist, letting her nails dig into her palm, feeling a slight sting.
She took a deep breath and replied softly, "Mom, I don't need you to tell me that, I know."
"Teagan..." Nora started.
But Teagan was like an erupting volcano at this moment, and nobody dared to approach him. He scolded Nora over the phone, questioning, "What the hell did you do to offend someone?" "Huh?" Nora looked confused. She hadn't offended anyone recently... "Teagan, are you misunderstanding something?"
"Misunderstanding? Bullshit! From
now on, our engagement is
You've caused my Pat
Group's shares to drop by 13%,
losing over a billion! You know what you did on the 17th, don't act innocent!" Teagan exclaimed in anger.
"Wait, Teagan, I don't understand what you're saying? What shares? What billion? Please, don't break off the engagement," Nora pleaded.
"Get lost! You should know what you did on the 17th! Don't play innocent!" He hung up.
Beep, beep, beep...
Nora thought about what he had
said on the phone. The 17th... wait, wasn't that the day when Danielle, the Parry family's young miss, organized a class reunion? Just
е
three days ago.
They had a conflict with Cheyenne, and Danielle even offended Kelvin!
Could this be Mr. Foley's revenge, causing the Parry Group's stocks to plummet while Danielle had no ability to admit her own mistakes? So, all the blame was placed on her.
Well, well, Danielle, how could she be so vicious!
Tears welled up in Nora's eyes as she grabbed her bag and headed towards the door.
Behind her, Malaya kept calling out to her, but she ignored it.
She was going to the Parry family to explain this situation to Teagan.
