Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet?

Chapter 835 Not Misunderstanding

She was just a pawn in their hands all along.

A pawn used against Felix and the original Rosefinch Club, or even the entire underground.

The thought chilled her heart.

Halley, however, didn't seem to sense her feelings and smiled and said, “You don't seem to like me

very much. Is there some kind of misunderstanding about me?”

Queeny sneered.

“You know very well if there is misunderstanding!”

Halley raised his eyebrows.

The truth was, if it were not for his evil spirit, which he had had recently, he could have swept a lot of

women off his feet with his handsome face.

Queeny, of course, was not one of them.

He said with a faint smile, “You seem to blame me for your previous accidents. You did me wrong,

Queeny. I knew you were out of prison, and I just expected to see you, and it hurts me to be

stigmatized like this.”

Queeny felt her anger rise and fall as she looked at him.

She lowered her eyes slightly and glanced back out of the corner of her eyes and asked, “So, what are

you doing here?”

Halley chuckled. “So you can't believe I’m here to catch up with you?”

“I don't think we have anything to catch up on.” She deadpanned.

Halley paused.

He was silent for a moment and chuckled, “I know how you feel right now. Maybe you think we lied to Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

you. But Queeny, did it ever occur to you that we didn't hurt you in any way other than by not telling you

who we really were?”

He paused, his eyes darkening, “Even in the last battle, though we used you, we didn't actually kill you.

You must know that a real pawn doesn't have to exist after everything is done.”

The man's tone was flat and light, but Queeny could hear a hint of cold from the flat tone.

Her eyes grew cold. “What do you want?” she asked.

Halley smiled at her.

“Come with me.”

Before she could speak, he added, “I know Felix Bissel had someone following you. There might be a

lot of people out there right now, just waiting to catch me. But Queeny, you must be aware that I came

here alone well aware of the danger, so there must have been something that I could rely on. So just

come with me, and I promise I won't hurt you, okay?”

Queeny looked at him coldly. She looked quite calm, but her heart was churning.

She knew Halley Well. He had been the mainstay of the Rosefinch Club before.

Not only was he a strong fighter, he was also very good at strategy. He was a man of profound

scheming.

If she were to make an enemy of him, she knew she was no match for him, physically or mentally.

And on top of that, there was one more thing.

The man Felix had sent to protect her had evidently been in the vicinity, and she had felt it when she

went to sleep the night before.

But now she felt nothing.

It was like those people just disappeared into thin air.

She began to feel very nervous and unsure of what was going on outside. She could only afford to

procrastinate with him.

“The body that was fished out of the river yesterday. Did you do it?”

She wondered if Halley had realized what she was up to, but he took his time and slowly answered,

“No.”

Queeny was frowning.

Halley just smiled slightly.

“Though she deserved to die, someone killed her before I could do anything, which was fine because I

don’t have to do it myself, and it saved me a lot of work.”

“Did she work for you?’ asked Queeny coldly.

Halley laughed.

“Kind of. Poor little girl. I just said a few nice words and she was willing to work for me. But she was

turned out of the house before anything could be done. Tut, such a worthless piece of shit. If I had to

choose, I'd rather not have chosen her.”

His simple words succeeded in provoking Queeny to anger.

She gritted her teeth. “She died for you. Don't you have any sympathy?”

“Sympathy?”

He raised his eyebrows as if he had heard something extraordinary, and then began to laugh slowly.

“You've really changed a lot since we last saw you four years ago, Queeny. You used to be so bold and

cold, and now you are talking to me about sympathy.”

He paused, his thin lips drawn in a straight line, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

“Don't you know that sympathy is the last thing we need in our line of work?”

Queeny was shocked.

When she met his cold eyes, she realized that Halley was not the man she had known any more.

Steering the wheelchair, she took a step back, shook her head and said, “I'm not going with you. I'm not

alone this time, as you say, so if you know what you're doing, you better surrender now, or I'll have to

be rude.”

Halley's face, however, showed no sign of panic.

He just looked at her with interest.

Queeny felt a twinge of panic.

She pressed the buttons on the armrests of the wheelchair, but she heard nothing from outside.

Oh, no!

The button on the armrest was an emergency contact device that Felix had installed for her before she

left.

So, in the event of any danger, she could just press the button and he would pick up the signal and

rush in with his men.

But now, she had pressed it several times.

There was not a sound outside.

What the hell was going on?

Halley, perhaps sensing the change in her face, threw back his head and laughed.

“Oh, little Queeny, I can't believe you're still so naive after four years. Do you really think that man

would drop everything for you, even if the Dragon Club were to be destroyed, to save you?”

Queeny was very shocked.

She looked at him in disbelief.

“What did you do to him?”

Halley shook his head.

“I didn't do anything. I just sent someone to make a little trouble in his place, you know. Trust me, it was

just a little trouble for him, just the loss of some territory and a few irrelevant recruits, but nothing

serious.”

“But you see, even so, he'd rather give you up to save someone who doesn't matter. Queeny, can't you

see at this point that this man isn't worth liking?”

As he said this, he had risen and was coming towards her step by step.
