Chapter 47 Passing By
Chapter 47 Passing By
Looking at the gentle eyes of Albert, Isabella asked with joy and fear, "Albert, will you really help me?"
"As long as you listen to me and do whatever I ask you to do, I will help you." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"Okay." Isabella answered firmly, "As long as you will help me, I will do whatever you ask me to do in the future."
Albert smiled and said playfully, "Then how about asking you to kill someone?"
"Kill? Killing someone?" Isabella's heart trembled again. She shrank herself to the window. Her face turned pale.
Albert looked like a giant snake in an abyss. As long as he didn't get what he wanted, he would open his bloody mouth and swallow her.
"I, I, I will do it." With fear, Isabella had to submit to him.
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Albert gently touched Isabella's head, just like touching a puppy.
"Go to Ye's Group to meet Kristina Ye. She will help you." When Albert mentioned Kristina Ye, the female CEO of Ye's Group, real tenderness appeared in his eyes.
"President Ye?" Isabella thought the Song family would help her. However, she didn't expect that Albert would ask her to beg the Ye family for help, one of the three most powerful families in LC City.
"As you know, among the three most powerful families, the Shi family is the most powerful and the Song family is the least powerful. The only one who can compete with the Shi family is the Ye
family. You can go to beg Kristina Ye for help." The Song family could only benefit from the conflicts between the Shi family and the Ye family.
Albert wouldn't be willing to be the least powerful one.
"But, but President Ye may not meet me. The Ye family and the Shi family don't interfere with each other." Isabella was about to cry again. She wasn't influential enough to ask the CEO of Ye's Group to help her.
"You just need to tell her that I ask you to beg her and she will meet you. Whether she will help you or not depends on what you can give her in return, like an attractive offer." Albert said calmly.
"An attractive offer?" Isabella understood his meaning immediately. Her family made skin care products. A natural skin care product was the best-selling one, so many people wanted the secret recipe of that skin care product.
Did Albert mean that she needed to hand over the secret recipe?
"I see." Her family is going bankrupt and it didn't matter if they kept this secret recipe or not.
"I like to deal with smart people the most. Go ahead." Albert smiled knowingly.
Nina stood at the intersection of the traffic lights and was about to buy a small cake.
Just at that time, she saw the Maybach which almost hit her before.
The person sitting in the car was John and he honked two times at her. The window slowly moved down, and a fair hand stretched out from inside, crooking his fingers, indicating her to come to him.
It seemed that he would use this gesture every time he waved at her.
Nina couldn't help but walk towards him.
Through the window glass, John looked at the young girl coming gracefully. Her black hair slightly raised, and a few strands of hair swept past the corners of her mouth. Her plain face made him a little absent-minded.
"Hi, little girl. Nice to meet you again." John said casually, as if it was just an encounter.
Without thinking too much, Nina asked him naturally, "Why are you here?"
"Passing by." John lied calmly, looking like a playboy.
He shouldn't be such a person, but Adrian and Henry had said that women liked playboys.
It was known that John was always serious and indifference. Now he wanted to make a slight change in a short time. It was no so easy for him and he looked somehow strange.
No matter how Nina looked at him, she felt awkward.
She became more and more convinced that it was because she beat him too hard after getting drunk, which left a sequela.
Suddenly, she felt very guilty. He was kind enough to bring her back that night, but she beat him and made him hurt. She thought she would take him to the hospital sometime.
But she was more confused. "Do you get off work so early?"
Nina raised her wrist and looked at her watch. It showed that it was three past five. She did a rough calculation and knew that he was off duty at four o'clock.
John looked at Nina's watch. It was a dark green watch band and a black square electronic watch. It looked ordinary. But when she raised her hand to look at the time, John saw a red schedule, as well
as the hour hand and minute hand rotating. With a closer look, he found that it was well made and there were several small buttons on the side.
There was no such a watch for sale. It was absolutely unique.
He suddenly remembered what Henry said. Maybe she was very rich. After all, she could buy a car at will and drove it away on the spot.
It seemed that she was not simple.
John looked at Nina with a deeper look in his eyes. He must find out who she married.
"The company is mine." 'It's up to me to decide the time to go to and off work.'
As he spoke, he didn't look at her watch anymore.
Hearing what he said, Nina couldn't help but feel surprised.
His company would go bankrupt sooner or later.
While she was thinking, she suddenly received a call. It was Michelle.
Usually, Michelle would send messages to her via wechat. Now she suddenly called her. Something must have happened.
As soon as the phone was connected, a sob came from the other side.
"Mickey, what's wrong?" Nina's eyes were filled with anxiety.
Michelle was sobbing. "Nini, come and save me. I'm in the FG Clothing Store on the tenth floor of HD Square."
"FG Clothing Store?" Nina had never been to HD Square to buy clothes. Her clothes were sent to her regularly, so she didn't know this shop.
"The Fashion Goddess, a famous fashion chain in China." John answered in the car.
Nina glanced at John and quickly calmed her down. "Mickey, wait for a moment. I'm coming to you right now."
Although she didn't know what exactly happened, she was anxious because of Michelle's tears.
It would take her some time to go back and drive her own car. Moreover, she didn't know the location of the store, so she could only look at John.
"You... Can you drive me to HD Square?"
"Sure." John nodded. Nina thought he was willing to help her, so she was grateful. As soon as she got in the car, John leaned over and whispered in her ear.
"Won't you thank me verbally?" He was not the kind of people who would help everyone in need.
He would charge interest for helping her.
"What?" The warmth of John slowly surrounded Nina, and his deep voice, with a little chuckle, came to her ears, like the moisturizing spring water.
Nina said, "Thank..." The next second, she could not speak.
John lowered his head and kissed her on her red lips.
