Chapter 14 Meeting giftWhat?
Onyx's whole body trembled.
Chasel Mills was planning to have someone from the Walker family come and catch her in the act!
If the Walker family found out that she had cheated on Emmett Walker, it would be the end for her!
The Walker family had risen to prominence so quickly, becoming one of Verdant City's local powerhouses in just five years, and it wasn't just due to their rapid economic growth.
However, seeing Chasel Mills's cold gaze filled Onyx with dread.
Used to being arrogant because of her stunning looks and status as a daughter-in-law of the Walker family, she never expected to hit a brick wall this time.
Regret flooded her mind, but she didn't dare to fight back.
She didn't even have the courage to negotiate with Chasel Mills!
With no other choice, Onyx reached for her phone and dialed a number.Moments later, the call connected.
"Hey... honey, I... I'm at the Grand Hotel. Can you come pick me up?"
Onyx's voice was trembling.
"Wait, you weren't home last night? Why are you at the Grand Hotel?"
A voice came from the other end, accompanied by some giggles in the background.
"Speak the truth!"
Chasel Mills raised an eyebrow, his voice calm but laced with impatience.Onyx trembled slightly and quickly replied, "I cheated! I'm at Suite 803 in the Grand Hotel. You need to get here in half an hour, or the whole world will know you've been cheated on!"
With that, Onyx hung up the phone, leaving a sense of despair in his heart.
Beside him, Billy Bruno's expression kept shifting as he clutched his throat, remaining silent. Yet deep within his eyes, there was a glint of malice.
The Walker family was powerful, but he had roots in Verdant City too. If the Walker family didn't want to lose face, they might not be able to do anything to him.
The key was the man and woman in front of him. As long as he could make it through today unscathed, he would definitely seek revenge. Billy Bruno had never been threatened like this before!
Chasel Mills let his gaze drop, casting a brief glance at Billy Bruno before ignoring him completely.
At that moment, Suzaku moved a chair over for Chasel to sit down. She stood tall and straight behind him, her posture exuding confidence.
The room was silent, except for Onyx's phone vibrating incessantly from incoming calls.
The tension was at its peak!
Time ticked by, second by second.
Chasel Mills's fingers lightly tapped the edge of the chair, creating a faint sound that echoed in the ears of Onyx and Billy Bruno like heavy hammers, making it hard for them to breathe.
Half an hour later.However, the two men in black didn't move. Instead, they froze in place, staring at the glint of a gun barrel pointed at them.
Sweat beaded on their foreheads.
They dared not make a move.
Emmett was also stunned, cold sweat trickling down his forehead. He might have been arrogant, relying on the Walker family's influence and being thebrother of Charlotte Walker, but facing a gun made him uneasy.
At that moment, Chasel Mills stood up and walked toward him, step by step.
"Emmett Walker, do you still remember me?" Chasel Mills said, looking at Emmett with an indifferent expression.
Emmett's face flashed with confusion before his eyes widened in shock, his pupils constricting. "You... you're Chasel Mills? You got out of prison?"
Although Chasel's appearance had changed slightly, it was still recognizable. However, the aura heexuded was completely different from five years ago. Back then, Emmett had only met Chasel a few times while accompanying Charlotte Walker, so his impression wasn't very deep. Yet, the rise of the Walker family was closely tied to Chasel Mills, and Emmett ultimately recognized him."That's right. Looks like you still remember me," Chasel said, giving Emmett's shoulder a light pat.
"When you go back, tell your clever sister a few things for me!"
"Let her know that what I'm willing to give her, she can refuse, but what I haven't given her, she can't just take."
"What she did to me back then was the most foolish and wrong decision of her life!"
"What I could offer her back then, I can take back now!"
"Consider this incident today as a welcome gift for her upon my return!"
