Chapter 365 His Girl
Gillee was so angry, but at this time, he could only listen to her.
"Okay, I promise you. Tell me where you are now."
"Before that, I have another condition!"
"Another one?" Gillee felt it unbelievable. "Do you know that I am the only one who can save your life now? If people know that you are the one who was trying to murder Clarissa, what is the chance of your survival?"
Lara sneered and said, "If I can't survive, you will not be able to survive too. Don't forget that you're the one who came up with this idea."
As she spoke, she even played that recording at the other end of the line to remind him.
Gillee couldn't bear it anymore, but afraid of the evidence in her hands, he could only hold back his anger in the end.
"Fine! You win. Tell me! What's the condition?"
"It's very simple. Prepare a sum of money for me, at least 50 million, and transfer it to my bank account abroad. You can't leave me impecunious while I'm abroad, can you?"
Gillee gritted his teeth. "Fifty million? Why don't you go and rob?"
Lara smiled coldly. "Gillee, please don't overreact. Fifty million dollars is just a small amount of money for you! During these years, you abandoned your wife and daughter to live your comfortable life in Flaucford city. Have you ever thought about the life that my mother and I lived?
I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. During the time I've spent in Flaucford, I've already had enough of you! Now that things are exposed, you want to send me abroad to protect me, but in fact, you're doing it just to protect yourself.
"So, shouldn't I get paid for keeping quiet? You can rest assured that as long as you are willing to give me money, not only this matter but all of the illegal things you've done. I will definitely carry these secrets to my grave and will not say a word."
Gillee was so angry that his eyes turned red.
A hint of coldness and sternness flashed in his eyes.
After a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Okay! I promise you."
"That's more like it! I'll send you the address later. Don't try to pull any tricks. This is not the only copy of recording I have in my possession, and I have a few backups in other places.
"If anything happened to be, these recordings will immediately be leaked, and then everyone will know the eldest son of the Levine family, who appeared to be kind-hearted, is actually a wicked person!"
Gillee interrupted her coldly. "That's enough!"
Lara proudly curled up the corners of her mouth, and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, she packed up a few necessary things and then sent the address to Gillee.
Just then, someone outside rang the doorbell.
She was slightly stunned. Her heart was in her mouth.
"Who is it?"
"Room service."
Lara let out a sigh of relief.
It was just as she thought. Although the man had been caught, he should not give anything away so soon. Hence, they should not be able to find her for the time being.
As she thought, Lara said in a loud and clear voice, "No need."
However, at this moment, the door creaked slightly before it was pushed open.
"You guys..."
She looked up in shock as she saw Anderson walking towards her, surrounded by two rows of bodyguards.
A pair of cold and gloomy eyes looked at her. "Lara, choose a way to die!"
......
Lara didn't expect that the matter would be exposed so quickly.
She stood in the middle of the living room as she stared at Anderson who was standing opposite her with a cold face on. Her legs felt as heavy that she couldn't lift them no matter how hard she tried.
"What... What are you doing? Young Master Anderson, I haven't done anything to Clarissa recently. Besides, I have apologized to everyone according to what she said that night. You don't have to get even with me after I apologize, do you?"
Lara still wanted to play dumb, but Anderson had already lost his last bit of patience. With a single glance, someone else next to her stepped forward and kicked her in the knee.
Lara knelt down in pain. It was so painful that she almost burst into tears.
The next second, she heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor approaching her.
"I don't hit women! Except when you mess with my girl!"
Then, he sent her flying with a kick.
Lara's body hit the wall and she rolled onto the ground while spitting out a mouthful of blood. It could be seen how hard his kick was.
Anderson looked at her coldly, there was no pity in his eyes at all.
No one knew how angry he was when he received a call and learned that Clarissa was seriously injured, and almost fell off the cliff and shattered into pieces because her wires had been tampered with.
He was in such a rage that he didn't care to be a gentleman and refrain himself from hitting a woman.
Lara was in so much pain that she could not speak. Anderson looked at her coldly and pointed at the phone not far away.
"Bring it over."
A bodyguard went up and picked up the phone before handing it to him respectfully with both hands.
Anderson turned on the phone and the recording was still showing on the screen.
As soon as he pressed the play button, he heard the complete dialogue between Lara and Gillee.
His face fell as the recording played.
In the end, the air in the room seemed to be freezing.
Lara moved her lips and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say a word because of the ripping pain in her chest.
Anderson threw his phone to his subordinate and said coldly, "Take her to the underground market. If she's still breathing tomorrow, all of you can die with her."
After that, Anderson turned around and strode away.
After hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but shiver and quickly said, "Yes!"
......
Clarissa was in a daze and couldn't sleep well throughout the night.
In her dreams, the scene of her being hung on a cliff kept recurring.
Clarissa dreamed that she was hung in the air with her hands tightly holding the broken wire. A staff member threw a rope down to save her, but before she could reach out to grab it, the rope was broken.
She could do nothing but watch herself fall. Finally she fell on the hard ground with a "bang", turning her body into a pile of mud!
Clarissa gasped suddenly and jolted awake.
When she opened his eyes, she realized that it was still night time. The silver moonlight was shining in through the window, and the surroundings were completely silent.
It turned out to be a dream!
Clarissa closed her eyes and felt a little scared. She wiped off the cold sweat on her forehead and felt cold all over her body.
The scene in her dream was still vivid in her head, as if Clarissa had personally experienced it.
For a moment, she was not sleepy at all. Her throat was dry, so she lifted the quilt and got up, getting out of bed to get herself some water.
Much to her surprise, as soon as Clarissa got out of bed, she saw the door was pushed open and a tall figure came in.
Clarissa froze for a moment before calling out, "Anderson?"
Anderson was only wearing a white shirt at this time. He wore a black vest and a pair of black trousers, looking tall.
His gaze swept over her thin pajamas Clarissa was wearing and finally fell on her bare feet.
Clarissa quickly shrank back and asked, "Did you just come back from outside?"
Anderson ignored her question. He stepped forward and picked her up.
