Masuk"Looks like the car following us earlier was probably not in cahoots." Tony didn't slow down at all as he put as much distance between them and the other car as possible. "Otherwise, when that car charged at us just now, it would have sped up and charged over too."If the cars in front and behind had both been targeting them, there would at least have been a minor scrape even if nothing serious happened.Sierra thought so too.Suddenly, her phone was still ringing.She answered. "Hello.""Ms. Bell, the car following you now is with the person who drove against traffic and tried to hit you earlier." Lance spoke quickly, worried that something would happen if he was too slow. "Be careful!"Sierra did not let him worry too much. "We shook them off for now."Lance blinked.If he remembered correctly, that car had been accelerating the whole time, and the map showed several turns ahead. They had already shaken it off?Before he could think further, Sierra asked, "How did you know?"
"Be careful," Robin reminded Lance as he secretly followed to protect Sierra. "If you mess this up again, Mr. Henderson won't be as lenient this time.""Don't worry. I know." Lance knew what he was doing.After the call ended, Lance continued to tail them in the car for another five minutes or so. If it was not because the road outside the King estate was so empty, he would not have been discovered.Meanwhile, Sierra had already assumed that Lance had been sent by Charlie or Peter since she could not see who was driving. She still remembered what had happened last time.Seeing that he neither overtook them nor changed lanes, Tony warned Sierra just in case. "Keep your seat belt fastened and don't use your phone until the car behind us is gone. Just in case something happens.""Alright," Sierra said.What had happened with Lucas and Brenda had left her with a fear of car accidents. If the other party suddenly accelerated and rammed them when they were near cliffs or rivers, Tony w
Sierra was not especially accurate at judging people. Pamela had made her pay for it back in university, but her mother and John were good at this. They had enough life experience, and since neither of them had said anything, Sierra did not need to worry too much.As for Tommy…Children had an instinctive sense for good and bad people.He liked playing with Tony and Marcus, which meant there was no problem."You're so trusting," Tony said with a sincere sigh, though her trust pleased him somewhat. "Next time when you run into people like us, remember to check their identities and backgrounds carefully first. Only trust them after you confirm there isn't a problem."Sierra was calm. "I checked."Tony used her own words against her. "Is it really okay to be this direct?""Didn't you already know?" Sierra was testing them. In her view, since they were so calm, they must have known she had investigated them.Both Tony and Marcus went quiet.After spending so much time around schem
Sierra had no idea she was in danger.After the car left the King family's estate, she sent Lucy a message saying she needed to see her about something. After Lucy told her to come over, Sierra did not ask Tony to change the destination."Why are you going to see Lucy so suddenly?" Tony asked as he drove. "Did you find out something?""Nothing in particular," Sierra said as she did not want to share her guesses with others. Although Tony and Marcus were her people, this matter was too serious. Before she had solid evidence and a specific theory, it was better not to say anything.Tony clicked his tongue, while Marcus said nothing.Sierra asked, "What?"Tony drove in a relaxed, leisurely way. "Our Ms. Bell has secrets now.""You talk as if you don't have secrets," Sierra said casually, exposing him. "Didn't you two come to me with secrets too?"Both of them froze and were stunned for a second.They knew Sierra had investigated them, but they had not expected her to say it so
"You need to pay attention even to the minor problems," Sierra said to Cyrus, her tone serious. She was concerned about his health. "Eat on time every day and listen to your family doctor's advice.""Alright, alright." Cyrus was very happy with her concern. "I'll listen to you."The two of them talked about a few other things.It was about one in the afternoon. It was time for Cyrus to take his nap, so Sierra was getting ready to leave.As soon as she came out of Cyrus's room, she ran into Maxwell. Thinking of what she had discussed with Cyrus earlier, she called out to him. "Maxwell.""What is it?" Maxwell was cold to everyone."Did you know Cyrus was seriously ill earlier?" Sierra asked directly.Maxwell paused, his dark eyes settling on her with a hint of scrutiny.Sierra's expression was perfectly natural. "When we were chatting just now, I heard him say he still had some minor lingering problems from his list illness. Did the family doctor give him any advice for recovery?
"I held those shares for so many years and enjoyed benefits that never should have belonged to me for free," Charlie said to Peter calmly. "Returning them is the right thing to do. Why would I be reluctant?""There's no one else here. You can stop with the acting now." Peter could not stand Charlie's hypocrisy.Charlie's expression stayed calm. "I'm telling you nothing but the truth."Peter cursed under his breath. He hated hypocrites like Charlie the most."Returning the shares to Sierra won't cost me much," Charlie said, as if he meant it. "Maxwell will still be the CEO of King Group, and I'll still be the head of the family. The person who'll lose out is you, since you have accomplished nothing."Peter was furious. "Don't forget Sierra's relationship with John!""So what?" Charlie said."What if he interferes in the company's affairs?" Peter refused to believe that Charlie was not worried at all."Even if he does, he can't change anything. The company's CEO is elected by the
Sierra turned to look at her.Holly kept talking with her eyes still fixed on the road. She didn't forget to finish her sentence by asking Sierra for her opinion. "I'm asking if you can accept that price.""You're that said private collector, aren't you?" Sierra exposed her without hesitation, h
Dr. Smith was not sure why John was asking that question, so after considering the situation carefully, he decided to answer honestly. "It's pretty serious. If the wound were anywhere else, it would need several stitches."John shot a dark glare at the doctor. Dr. Smith kept his expression steady
"If I told you everything I did back then had its reasons, would you believe me?" Lucas's voice sounded as if it had aged several years in an instant as he spoke to Sierra. "If I didn't do all that, all of you would have been dragged down with me."Sierra's expression was one of mockery. "Do yo
None of that mattered.Making money was all that mattered to her right now.Sierra knew John was intentionally making things difficult for her after she received no replies after sending out all her resumes, so she shifted her priority to finding part-time work instead.That afternoon, she had an
