Faded enthusiasm
After being stared at for a long time, Celia naturally felt something.In particular, when she raised her head and saw the lecherous gaze in Bill’s eyes, her impression of this man became terrible.If not for the fact that he was Nessa’s boyfriend, Celia would have long cursed at him.“Hello,” Celia, suppressing her anger, replied indifferently without any intention to shake his hand.Bill’s facial expression immediately stiffened.He had planned to take liberties with Celia during the handshake and see just how soft the hands of the woman who was prettier than his girlfriend were.A trace of disappointment and anger appeared on his face, but he could only awkwardly retract his hand while striking up a conversation on his own. “You two are high school classmates. It's been a long time since you’ve met, huh?”Nessa said, “Yeah. After graduating, we went to college in different cities. It’s been more than five years since we last met! It’s a rare opportunity for us to meet here today, s
Attending an expo
Ryan was clenching his jaw so hard that his gums were almost bleeding.But at this moment, he had to force himself to bear with it regardless of how angry and full of hate he was.Ryan could only wait for the right opportunity to deal with the Wallaces and make Joel pay for the death of his son.When the time came, Ryan decided that he had to tie the murderer, Joel, to his son’s corpse and then use his blood as a sacrifice to his son, who had been killed unjustifiably!Ryan’s eyes flashed with hatred.Finally, he gave his son’s corpse in the cold storage room one last look before leaving with gritted teeth.Meanwhile, William had already returned to his villa in Avalon.After he washed up and lay in bed, his phone vibrated with a text message.“Everything has been settled according to plan.”William didn’t seem surprised.Neither Joel nor Ryan knew William was the culprit behind everything that had happened tonight.Since Joel and Kobe wanted to kill him, he decided to turn them again
Unable to seek justice
Flustered, he wanted to roll up the windows and turn around to flee, but how could he have the time to do so?Before he could start the car, a toned and muscular arm reached into the car through the window to grab his neck and pulled him out of the Maserati..“Help! Who… who the hell are you? I’m Joel Wallace's assistant. If you dare to lay a finger on me, the Wallaces won’t spare you!” After being dragged out of the car, the assistant was still issuing a threat while struggling.Eyes full of hatred, Ryan slowly walked up to the assistant. “Won’t spare me? Let me ask you. Where is my son, Kobe Preston?!”“You… you’re the helmsman of the Prestons?!” Joel’s assistant’s eyes widened as he looked at Ryan in disbelief.After hearing that Ryan was looking for Kobe, he instantly froze in place, and his body turned clammy all over.Oh my god! The Prestons already found out about Kobe’s death!“Kill him!” Ryan commanded coldly.Before the assistant could react, the hand gripping his neck tight
Killing the assistant
“Okay, stop talking to me about the exchange. I’m not in the mood to listen to it now. Has there been any news from the people sent out? Has Kobe been found?” Ryan unceremoniously interrupted the secretary’s report and asked about the matter that concerned him the most.“Uh, not yet…”As soon as the secretary answered, Ryan’s phone on the table suddenly started ringing.But it was actually a text message.“Joel Wallace’s people are preparing to burn Kobe’s corpse in the woods 30 kilometers southeast of Avalon. It’ll be too late if you don’t head there right now.”Ryan’s pupils suddenly shook.“What? Burning my son’s corpse? Are they planning to destroy his corpse and wipe out the traces?!”Ryan suddenly sprang up and punched the table.This sudden message was like a shocking thunderbolt striking the top of Ryan’s head.A chill ran down his spine all the way to his feet, making him feel as though he had plunged into an ice cellar.“No, this is impossible. My son is definitely not dead.
At a loss
They had obviously been preparing to wash Joel’s car when they suddenly discovered the corpse in the trunk.“Get out of my way!” Joel hollered.The servants, already terrified by the sight of the corpse, immediately scattered and vanished out of sight.Joel walked toward his Maserati, looked into the trunk, and immediately recognized the man stuffed inside to be his loyal follower Kobe.At this moment, Kobe’s eyes, which had long lost their luster, were fixed on Joel.Coupled with his ashen face, he looked extremely terrifying.A sudden chill surged from the bottom of Joel’s feet.He took several steps back, his heart pounding wildly.This man, who had been alive and kicking an hour ago, had turned into a corpse that seemed to have died with indignation in just the blink of an eye. It utterly frightened Joel.It was definitely the closest he had been to death!Kobe… was actually dead!His corpse was even stuffed into the trunk of his car!Who… who did it?Joel’s mind was a mess, but W
Kobe's corpse
In a villa of the Wallace family in Avalon…Joel’s expression was extremely ugly.Just now, he had tried to call Kobe several times, but no one answered.After associating it with Kobe’s bizarre silence and stammering, as well as William’s clear sentence, Joel had an ominous premonition.Generally speaking, Kobe, his shameless lackey, would never have the guts to ignore his calls.And logically speaking, his phone shouldn’t have ended up with William unless…Something had happened to Kobe!The moment he thought of this possibility, Joel found it really hard to accept.He understood that Kobe was terrified of death.And since he was dealing with William for him, he had definitely brought several bodyguards with him, which was exactly what Kobe had done.Now, the issue was, how could William force Kobe to stay silent and even snatch away his phone under the protection of so many bodyguards?The only possibility was that… William managed to subdue all of Kobe’s bodyguards in that short p
