Chapter 1122 Bold As Hell
Chapter 1122 Bold as Hell
Lucia couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard the words, and she replied with a smile, "Your first question is already the answer to the second question."
Casper was taken aback for a moment, and it took a while to understand Lucia's meaning. A sense of loss surged up in his heart for no reason, and he couldn't help saying, "Do you really hate me that much?"
So hated that even if she saved him, she had to watch him continue to suffer here?
"Mr. Wood, you're proud and arrogant, and it is good to suffer a little bit. Nia has never been a friend to me. You are the only choice to check and balance her. Moreover, it is difficult not to save you. In short, you don't need to repay this favor, as long as you don't show up in front of me in the future." Lucia said coldly, without directly answering Casper's question.
After speaking, Lucia glanced at Kane, turned around and walked out. Kane waved his hand, and the people he brought followed behind Lucia.
Looking at Lucia's relentless figure, Casper felt mixed feelings in his heart and couldn't tell what it was like.
He was obviously saved, but he couldn't be happy.
"Who did you mess with?" Miles didn't give Casper too much time to be melancholy, but stared at him coldly and asked,
"It's such a big commotion!"
Casper didn't want to pay attention to Miles, but he brought someone to pick him up after all, so he casually said,
"This is between me and others. You don't have to worry about it."
"I don't want to care about it at all." Miles said bluntly.
Casper didn't say anything more, let Leon support him, gritted his teeth and snorted, "Take me to the hospital!"
At dinner time, seeing Eve's rare appetite, Lauren couldn't help laughing and said,
"Do you feel more relaxed?"
Eve smiled shyly and said,
"Well, it's really much relaxed."
"That's good." Lauren rubbed her hair pamperingly, and then asked again, "Are you afraid to see me like that today?"
That was what Lauren cared about most.
"Like what?" Eve still didn't understand what Lauren meant.
"Eve," Lauren felt helpless, and whispered, "Although I never said it clearly, you should be able to deduce from other aspects that my background is not pure, and I am definitely not a kind person. Maybe one day, you will see my hands covered in blood, then..."
As soon as Lauren said this, Eve grabbed his arm and stopped him,
"Lauren, I don't know what kind of person you were before, but when I met you, all I knew was that you were the best man in the world. So no matter what you did in the past, it wouldn't affect how I see you now or in the future. I can't promise that I won't be afraid in the future, but..." Eve shyly avoided Lauren's gaze but continued speaking.
"What I like is exactly who you are."
Lauren's heart soared. This was the first time Eve had openly admitted her feelings for him and for the first time in his life, Lauren felt his heart skip a beat.
"Eve..." He couldn't help saying her name as he leaned towards her to kiss her. But just then a sharp voice interrupted their romantic moment.
"Lauren!"Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Even though Lauren was facing Eve's face - which he loved so much - his eyes turned cold upon hearing that voice.
Nia was rushing towards them at the entrance of the restaurant. "Don't speak. Let me handle this," Lauren quickly instructed Eve before turning to Nia with an annoyed expression on his face. His eyes were so icy they could kill!
Nia came charging over with anger written all over her face and immediately demanded an explanation from them, "Why did you let Casper go?!"
It turned out that news of Leon and others searching for Casper had reached Nia's ears earlier that afternoon and she thought this would finally be Lauren's chance to take action against him. She spent all afternoon excited about it because she thought their biggest problem would finally disappear! However, Kevin sent new information later on saying Casper had been rescued and taken to hospital where he recovered from danger!
Why?!
Nia got angrier as she thought about it more while alone at home until she impulsively drove straight to Dekee Hotel to confront Lauren.
"Nia, watch your tone," warned Lauren whose voice sounded cold enough to freeze someone up.
Although Nia always feared him before, now things were different; he broke his promise! She really couldn't stand it anymore so she asked, "Lauren didn't you promise me that we'd get rid of Casper? Why did you end up letting him go?"
"Do you want everyone around us hear what we're talking about?" said a disdainful-looking Lauren who refused even look at Nia directly while speaking these words.
Nia finally noticed that her sudden behavior had attracted the attention of several people. She angrily pulled out a chair and sat down, staring at Lauren as she continued to question him.
"What were you thinking?!" Nia demanded.
"What do you mean?" Lauren pressed Eve's hand under the table, noticing that she was about to speak up. Once Eve lowered her gaze again, he continued speaking. "I did promise to take care of Casper for you, but I never guaranteed that I could actually do it. Today, I managed to tie him up in an abandoned manor outside of town, but someone came and rescued him. Are you suggesting that I should have killed them too? Nia, your ego isn't big enough for something like that."
Nia's expression changed immediately as she asked, "Who rescued him?!"
"Lucia," Lauren replied calmly. However, from Nia's reaction, he could tell the word had stirred up a storm within her.
"It was her..." Nia muttered.
"Right... do you really think I would harm her?" Lauren gave Nia a sideways glance.
Nia was speechless.
"I've already called off my men and Arthur is behind Lucia; I won't interfere with them anymore."
"But..."Nia felt so frustrated inside; she understood Lauren's predicament but this time it was such a pity! And why did Lucia save Casper when she already suspected his identity?
"There are no 'buts'!" Lauren said firmly cutting off all of Nia's delusions.
Nia's breath instantly deflated; all the arrogance from earlier disappeared without a trace
"Eve, are you full? Let's go back." Lauren said lazily ignoring the stunned look on Nia's face as he spoke to Eve.
