CHAPTER 289
Compared to the driver's unease, the woman understood Philip’s true nature much better.This guy had really hit the jackpot. It wasunclear where he found this group of people, but there was no doubt they were on his side. If she kept pushing this issue, the only one who would end up in trouble would be her."Don't talk big. If those people over there tell me to stay away from you, I will. After all, I'm part of the Gang." That last part was a warning. She could feel the resentment simmering beneath the surface; he wished he could deal with her right then and there. The Gang was a disgusting organization that couldn't be wiped out completely, and he couldn't just throw her behind bars, so he kept thinking of ways to handle the situationhimself."It's fine. You'll eventually learn that people get what they deserve. I won't be around forever. Driver, please stop at that intersection up ahead." This wasn't where he needed to stay, and the driver obediently pulled over at thecorner. He
CHAPTER 288
"The chip injection hurts a bit; it requiressurgery to stitch it in. But don't even thinkabout trying to take it out yourself, because that will let us know."After saying this, Lawrence glanced at Thomas, seemingly seeking his approval. Thomas nodded, giving his silent consent. The two men in black swiftly moved to restrain the woman's arms. She trembled in fear, and they dragged her outside, taking her to get the chip injected."You had this plan from the start. The chip is a clever idea; it must have been Philip’s thinking, right?"Indeed, Thomas knew his subordinate well. Lawrence nodded; he hadn't intended to take credit for this."This woman is too cunning. She insisted on handling this herself to feel secure." Lawrence thought it might also be a form of torture. After all, cutting into flesh to implant a chip sounded like some cruel punishment, especially without anesthesia."It seems he guessed from the beginning that I wouldn't kill her." As Thomas opened the door, he still
CHAPTER 287
She couldn't fathom who she had offendedto provoke such powerful adversaries. As she noted the direction they were heading, she felt a flicker of relief that her eyes weren't covered. She desperately committed the route to memory; it could very well be a matter of life and death.Eventually, they drove toward the outskirts. The woman's heart raced with anxiety.Surely, they weren't planning to dispose of her in the wilderness, were they? The thought sent shivers down her spine. Sensing her distress, one of the men pulled out a knife again."We don't want to hurt you or rob you, butIf you keep being difficult, we'll have to find a way to make you cooperate. You won't be able to run away again." His warning had a chilling effect. He continued to scan the roadside, and while the two of them were somewhat concealed in the middle, the group made no effort to hide their path.In fact, their blatant disregard for caution only heightened her fear. It felt as if they believed they could act
CHAPTER 286
As Iris stepped out, she took in the sight of the messy bedroom, clothes strewn about, and the closet in disarray. She noticed Gavin still rummaging through things, feeling a bit puzzled."What are you doing? Why is the room such a mess? I really don't have the time or energy to clean up right now," she said, irritation creeping into her voice. Gavin turned around quickly, shoving something into the closet and slamming the door shut with a loud thud. He looked back at her, a hint of apology in his eyes."I brought home a contract, but I can't find it now, and I'm a bit anxious," he admitted.Usually, he took his time in the shower, but today he was unusually quick, hoping to use the time to dig out their important documents."I can't believe you'd leave a contract in that closet. Seriously, stop messing around. I need to sleep; we can deal with this in the morning," she replied, clearly frustrated.At that moment, he really didn't want to argue with Iris. He stepped forward and starte
CHAPTER 285
"Don't worry, I'll handle everything on my end. I have to seize this opportunity to go abroad; apart from this chance, I won't have another shot at changing my life." His words were filled with determination, but Kelvin on the other side of the table scoffed at him. Once he made up his mind, he would fall right into their hands, and whatever the backers decided to do with him-whether it meant taking his life or dumping him somewhere-was the least of their concerns."Now that I hear you say that, I feel much more at ease. It's clear you're hoping for a hidden surprise with this matter, and I will do everything I can to support you."At this moment, he was the person in the organization who had the most direct contact with Gavin. However, he was about to completely change his identity on this trip abroad. There was no need for him to return home. He glanced at the surveillance camera, thinking that leaving behind a few more pieces of evidence wouldn't hurt."Thank you for your help toda
CHAPTER 284
Everything was going smoothly. When Gavin finally changed into a fresh outfit and settled into his office, he took a moment to catch his breath and think things through. He locked the door, immersing himself in his own thoughts.At first, he had considered his family, but now he no longer felt the need to. He decided to team up with Kelvin, using his connections to escape the country. He was curious to see how Iris would handle the mess he was leaving behind. Did he really think he could just run away?He was determined to board this escape ship; it was his chance for a new beginning, free from any obligations to Iris. If she were unkind, then he could be ungrateful too.Now, he needed to calm down and carefully devise a plan. If he wanted to flee the country, he had to sort out his passport. It wouldn't be easy to pull this off right under the noses of Iris and his boss. The only person he could turn to for help was Kelvin. The atmosphere in the office had shifted; it was no longer a
