Aurora Dourada: Retorno By Ricardo Almeida

Bethany raised her brows and asked nonchalantly, “Does my mother want Linny to go away or disappear forever?”

“Mr. Salvador wants the problem taken care of once and for all.”

Winston’s face was blank. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Ha. That’s vicious of her.”

“If Mrs. Salvador wasn’t vicious, you wouldn’t enjoy the privilege you have right now.”

“Hmph! Even if Mom didn’t do anything, my life wouldn’t change.”

Winston looked contemptuously at Bethany through the rear-view mirror. “Are you sure, Ms. Bethany?”

Bethany pursed her lips bitterly.

Shannon resorted to scheming out of desperation, viewing it as the

sole means of unlocking a life beyond that of a mistress.

However, Bethany was a different story. Either way, she was

Gregory’s daughter, the heiress of the Salvadors.

Shannon often called Bethany an idiot, and Bethany had had enough.

This time, she would do something to prove Shannon wrong.

Bethany wanted to one-up Shannon.

“I have an idea to take down all the troublemakers all at once,

Winston.” Bethany leaned closer to the man, her voice reflecting her

malice.

Winston stared back at her. “What do you have in mind?”

“Why don’t we let the bitch meet with that person? We can get back at

them in one go.”

Bethany grinned wickedly. “I’m 100% certain that she is a mole

working for Bella. Justin has too big of an ego to sneak around.

Besides, if she works for Justin, she won’t risk slipping out of the

house at night.”

Winston nodded. “So you’re telling me to finish off Bella?”

Finish off Bella?

Bethany’s heart raced nervously, apprehensively, and excitedly.

She always dreamed of feeding Bella to the hounds.

However, Bella was the daughter of the wealthiest man in Hatchbay.

If Bethany were to kill Bella, Wyatt would leave no stone unturned to

find the killer and get even. Bethany would be inviting herself into

trouble.

Still, it was now or never. Bella would leave her security detail behi

to meet with Linny in secret. It was the perfect opportunity to strike

“Do you have the balls to pull it off?” Bethany probed, her gaze

menacing.

“I’m game. It’s not my first day on the job.” Winston was a former

hitman.

Bella was no threat to him.

With her eyes glistening chillingly, Bethany chuckled. “In that case, we

should celebrate Bella’s death tonight.”

Bella and Steven waited in an empty park on the west side of the city.

Given her present reputation and popularity, Bella would stand out in

the crowd, and it would put Linny, her informant, at risk.

Steven kept glancing at the time. The wait was getting to him. “Why isn’t she here yet? I hope everything is okay.”

Bella frowned worriedly.

“Ms. Bella, do you think Linny is meeting with you so suddenly because she has gotten a hot lead on Shannon?”

“We’ll find out once Linny is here.”

Soon, a flurry of footsteps drew close.

“Ms. Thompson! Ms. Thompson, run!”

Linny, pale in the face, scrambled over in sweat. “I’ve been followed.

They tracked me here. Run, Ms. Thompson!”

Bella held Linny, who had gone limp with fear. Her eyes were

determined, and she said firmly, “Don’t be scared. I won’t let anyone. hurt you.”
