Chapter 28

The only possibility was that the people chasing me this time weren't sent by Killian, but by someone else.

But Killian's surveillance on Anderson might have given this person an opportunity to strike.

That person was doing everything possible to kill me.

Apart from Freya, I couldn't think of anyone else.

I suddenly remembered that day when I came home, the way Freya stared at me with such hatred.

She said to me, "Didn't you see the body at my bedroom door with your own eyes? It doesn't matter, I'll let you see one too soon enough."

At the time, I just thought it was harsh words she said after being traumatized.

I didn't expect her to find someone so quickly!

Luca cursed while driving.

He was really skilled - he made an ordinary car perform all kinds of difficult moves like acceleration and drifting.

Of course, these moves were effective.

After one more intersection, those people had completely disappeared.

Vivian lifted her head to check the surroundings, and only after confirming it was safe did she pull me up and rubbed the back of my neck. "Sorry, Ms. Lacey, I was in a rush just now."

I knew she was apologizing for pushing my head down.

I shook my head. "When it's life or death, no need to apologize."

If Vivian hadn't reacted so fast, I might have been shot in the head!

Meanwhile, Freya was nestled in a man's arms.

The man was Camorra's heir, named Alberto Watson.

Alberto wore a white suit, looking elegant and gentlemanly overall.

His left hand held Freya in his embrace, while his right hand held a glass of red wine. "Freya."

Hearing Alberto call her name, Freya looked up, "What is it, Mr. Watson?"

"The information you gave me is true, right?" Alberto stared at the woman's face, his right hand shaking the wine glass without courtesy.

His manner made Freya certain that if she said she wasn't sure, the next second the wine would be splashed in her face!

Freya forced an appropriate smile onto her face. "Mr. Watson, since we started working together, when have I ever lied to you?"

"Last time when I had you intercept those goods at the port, didn't that work out well too?"

Alberto gave a cold laugh.

His features leaned toward the feminine side, with a particularly gloomy quality.

But because he packaged himself so much like a gentleman, when Freya leaned against him, she would have a momentary illusion.

The two had gotten involved together by accident.

That day, Freya was racking her brains about how to deal with Elvira when she happened to learn some important news.

As Camorra's heir, Alberto had been extending olive branches to them.

He expressed interest in taking over their transportation routes.

But Killian, considering his current projects were related to Virio, kept refusing to agree.

Realizing this was her opportunity, Freya directly got Alberto's contact information and reached out to him herself.

"I said from the beginning, as long as you help me get rid of Elvira, forget the routes - I could even give you one of our subsidiary companies." As Freya spoke, she raised her hand, slowly running one finger along Alberto's chin.

"Mr. Watson, as long as you trust my information and act on it, I guarantee you won't come away empty-handed."

This time, Freya had also secretly snuck into the study and learned about Elvira's trip to Floridia through the surveillance people.

Years ago, when a large group of company employees left, Killian had sent people to monitor them separately. If they made any unusual moves, it had to be reported to him.

But over all these years, nothing unusual had actually happened.

Killian had long since relaxed his guard, but never canceled this "surveillance."

"For my father, those reports became routine, but for us they're very useful, don't you think?" Freya said with a smile, reaching over to pull out a cigar and hand it to Alberto.

Alberto put down his wine glass and took the cigar Freya offered.

He held the cigar between two fingers, examining it carefully.

After a moment, he spoke softly, "Compared to this cigar, what I want to taste more right now is..."

His words held some unfathomable deeper meaning.

Freya froze. "Mr. Watson, do you mean..."

"No, not you. Perhaps you've misunderstood me." Alberto lowered his voice and whispered a few words in her ear.

"You actually want to... with my sister..." Freya covered her mouth in shock.

But a moment later she realized she absolutely couldn't offend this man.

Freya laughed lightly. "No wonder we hit it off so well - you already had a target in mind."

"Don't worry, as long as we cooperate well, you can have Elvira. After you capture her and torture her to death, I'll give you my blessing."

But as she spoke, a cold glint flashed in Freya's eyes.

Alberto silently held her tighter. "Sounds like you really care about your sister."

Alberto had no respect for this woman either.

Someone who betrays their own family - what kind of good person could they be?

Especially since before working together, Alberto had already investigated all of Freya's background.

But given the current situation, cooperating with Freya was the best choice.

After driving two blocks, those people were still in hot pursuit. Luca slammed the steering wheel. "Who sent them? Why are they so desperate!"

Hearing Luca's words, I couldn't help but look back.

Luca had deliberately turned into some crowded areas. This area was bustling everywhere, with pedestrians everywhere, so those people didn't dare shoot again.

If anything happened on the street, the police would arrive quickly, and they wouldn't be able to make their move.

From their actions, I figured that although they were a group of desperados, they didn't seem to want to make this a big deal.

"Let's try to stay in crowded places as much as possible," I suggested.

Fortunately, we'd filled up the tank before coming.

Vivian was also very anxious. "I've already notified Mr. Soren. He knows about our situation."

With the car moving at such high speed, Vivian could still manage to make a phone call.

I turned to look at her in surprise, suddenly feeling that Virio had placed some real experts around me.

Thinking of Virio, my heart, which had been in my throat, suddenly settled back down.

He had promised me he would protect me well.

So after learning about this, he would definitely arrange personnel deployment immediately!

He should also have some connections and influence here in Floridia, and then...

As I was thinking, the car made a sharp turn!
