A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 408

Bun dared not make any moves with a gun pointing at her head, even though she was worried to death about Linda who now had a baby in her womb, which had only escalated Bun's worry.

Anna felt somewhat guilty.

She had startled the evildoer by her rash decision. She wanted to have the cup tested and to tell Charles about her findings when she had found out that the glass of water seemed rather dubious. It had small, white precipitates at the bottom. Normally, purified mineral water didn't produce such precipitates. It hadn't occurred to her that the person who wanted to poison Linda was inside the room, not to mention Linda's stylists.

It was indeed a long-conspired plot.

There were still doubts in their minds. When did the stylists, or more precisely the assassins, get in?

"If you dare hurt Lady Linda, Young Master Mu would let you pay the price for it, " Bun threatened the assassins.

But such warning was a joke in Ada's eyes. She just gave a faint smile and told Bun, "My dear, do you think your threat would work on me? If it did, I wouldn't have been here in the first place. Sorry girls, I can only say that I am only doing what I was paid to do."

"Who paid you? Who sent you here?" Unwilling to accept the current situation, Bun questioned her continuously.

Ada's ability to lurk around Linda for such a long time without getting caught had proved the shrewdness of the team behind her. Bun couldn't get anything from Ada at the moment because she was too clever!

Linda stretched out one of her hands and pulled Bun, who was next to her. Her petty movement was not caught by Ada.

Bun excelled at fighting with her bare hands, but she needed to be careful because she was fighting against a gun this time.

"What do you want? Just spit it out. Let me know the reason of my death!" Linda's face was void of any fear. Instead, it registered a warm smile which Ada found quite strange.

Linda knew that the only thing she could do at the moment was to buy them some time before 6:18 PM, the auspicious time when the wedding ceremony would start. Once the clock struck 6:18 PM and they were nowhere to be found, Charles would definitely be alerted. He would come look for them, and Ada would be caught on the spot.

"We want nothing from you. It's just that someone has paid me to kidnap you from the wedding." Ada liked how Linda was reacting to the situation, so she told her directly.

"Is that so? Then, who would want to have me kidnapped? How much am I worth?" Linda continued her line of questioning.

Ada wouldn't answer that question for sure. She was professional in her domain, so she would never give away the identity of her employer. She knew that Linda was a smart person, so she had a reason for asking such a stupid question. Maybe she was delaying her moves.

Ada, too, had a sharp mind, so she told Linda straightly, "Mrs. Mu, I think you are buying yourself some time."

"You got me, " Linda admitted.

Sitting on the chair, Linda put her hands on her legs with one palm on top of the other to cover the dragon-shaped ring on her finger.

Now that Ada had exposed her intentions, Linda had to use the dragon ring on her finger to launch a counterattack.
