Chapter 415 Trying to kill to silence
If something was wrong, just have the bodyguard relay it or say it over the phone, why did she have to go out specifically?
Angela licked her dry lips, “My brother asked me to go back with him and if I left with you guys now he would be suspicious.”
“All you have to do is go out and meet Mrs. Ela and come back, Mr. Greyson won’t suspect anything.” The bouncer said.
“Then I’ll go and tell my brother so he won’t worry if he can’t find me later.” The more the bodyguard discouraged, the more Angela felt there was something wrong in the middle.
But the bouncer blocked all her back routes, “Mr. Greyson is talking to someone, it would be rude for you to go over there now and interrupt their conversation instead.”
Seeing that she was still hesitating, the other bodyguard said, “If you’re worried about what we might do, there’s absolutely no need, and if we really wanted to do something, we wouldn’t have to wait until now. Besides, even if we were to unload, we would have to wait until you had done what you needed to do.”
Angela had speculated that when she did what Ela had told her to do, she would be killed and silenced.
Now that the bodyguard said that, she felt even more like she would be killed and silenced …… So was she still going to do what Ela had told her to do?
It would not be good for her if the latter were to cross the river.
But if she doesn’t do what Ela tells her to do, the story of the Harvey Group’s involvement with human experimentation is sure to blow up and James is likely to be sent to prison again!
The head bouncer glared at the bouncer who said he would kill and silence her and said, “Miss. Angela doesn’t really think we would kill and silence her, does she?”
“I don’t know about that, after all, you guys even play with the Harvey family, it doesn’t seem like a big deal for me, a little Angela, to be done.” Angela said.
There was still room for manoeuvre here, but if she went out with them to meet Ela, she wouldn’t have any room for bargaining.
The head bodyguard, “If we kill you, Mr. James will definitely track you down to the end, and then we will be exposed, we don’t need to take such a big risk.”
“To be honest, we don’t intend to offend Mr. James, otherwise we wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to get around you, just blow the whistle on the human experimentation and bring down the Harvey family.”
He had a point, but there was one thing Angela couldn’t figure out, “You don’t want to offend James, so did you do all this just to break me up with him?”
“Miss. Angela, you don’t have to side-step us and get words out of us. If you know too much, then it won’t be a question of whether we want to silence you or not, but you forcing us to do that.” The bodyguard was cautious.
Angela saw that she couldn’t get any useful information out of them, so she didn’t ask any more questions and went out with them to meet Ela.
Things have come to a head and she can’t afford not to see it.
There were many cars parked outside the Harvey family and Ela was in one of them.
There were a number of bodyguards from the guests outside and Angela got into Ela’s car amidst a group of people gawking as if they were not there. Several of the bodyguards closed the door and waited outside.
There was a driver in the car, and Ela with Noah.
Angela’s face was natural but very cautious as she took her seat, her buttocks just a little next to the edge of the seat, ready to stand up at any moment.
“And I don’t have a knife, gun or anything in my hand, why are you so scared of me?” Ela’s expression was playful, like a cat teasing a mouse.
Angela’s eyes were downcast and she didn’t deliberately avoid the question, “You can easily play with someone like Mr. Lawson, you can handle someone like me with a finger. If I’m not vigilant, I’m afraid I’ll be sold by you and still count the money for you.”
Ela laughed, “You know yourself pretty well, if you were as smart as that Smith family girl, maybe I’d still like you.”
“If you liked me, would you have gone around in such a big circle and split the two of us up?”
Ela paused for a moment before saying, “That premise doesn’t exist and can’t exist, so why should I bother to consider whether I would do that?”
Angela felt that she was avoiding the subject somewhat, and it definitely looked like Ela was doing this not just because she didn’t like her.
Presumably there is still a lot of twisted interest in it.
“Honey, give Angela the hot water bag, I can see her hands are freezing red.” Ela acted as if she hadn’t seen Angela’s massive stare.
Noah sat down and smiled as he handed Angela a warm water bag.
Angela shook her head no, she didn’t like to use things from strangers, especially when this stranger was not kind to her.
“Since you don’t like the hot water bag, turn up the heat.” Ela instructed the driver.
The driver answered and turned up the heat a little.
Ela doesn’t say what she’s here for, and Angela doesn’t ask, and keeps her company, chatting about insipid and uninspiring topics.
Once she takes the initiative and asks, Ela’s advantage becomes more apparent.
The two of you had been talking in circles for half a day before Ela asked, “Angela, why do I remember you two getting more and more clingy after that time you spent alone with James?”
Angela’s heart thumped when she heard the words alone together.
She was then heard to continue asking, “It’s not like you told James everything and then you two spend every day together without giving me a chance to find you, is it?”
Ela’s eyes were fixed on Angela as she asked the question, not missing every change of expression on her face.
Angela’s palms were sweating, the heating was on and even a little hot, but her limbs felt as cold as if she were in an ice cellar.
What would have happened if Ela had found out?
Just keep her as a hostage and blackmail James into doing something? Or just silence her and find another way to get what they want?
“What took you so long to answer?” Ela spoke slowly, her eyebrows rising slightly, “I don’t suppose I’ve guessed it and am wondering how to answer?”
Angela tried to resist the instinct to blink and twisted her head to look straight at her, “I do wonder how I should answer you.”
“Oh?” Ela trailed off, already tinged with a bit of dislike.
Angela’s hands were sweaty and wet and cold, “I was thinking that if I said that we had taken a love bath in the bathroom that day, you might think I was lying. If I said that we were inseparable and just close, you’d probably think I was lying too.”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Her face was natural, but her heart was beating fast.
If things were exposed, she really couldn’t guess the outcome. Thousand Tsung Tsung Tsung
“That’s a good guess.” Ela leaned back lazily in her seat, “You two didn’t used to be this clingy and almost inseparable. It’s normal for me to be suspicious when you’re suddenly so close, right?”
