Chapter 969
Narissa drove the man to the edge of a cliff before the two finally stopped.
No doubt anyone would drop into pieces, if not to bits, if they fell down the cliff. Alas, the man had nowhere to run.
After taking a gander down at the edge, the man turned around and squabbled with Narissa while panting, "You sure are temperamental for a girl. Sure, I took a peek, but who wasn't bare-naked in front of a bunch of people when they were first born into the world?! Give it a rest, will you?"
However, Narissa showed her fists at once. "Let's see if you can still be so good with words after I batter you up!"
"Fine, go ahead. Hit me. Either way, I don't hit women." The man stretched his neck, looking like he didn't give a damn anymore. Now, that's kind of dull.
Even though Narissa never adhered to the no-hitting-man policy, she would never beat up a weakling who couldn't defend themselves.
After some deliberation, she diverted her attention to the man's bag.
The man had retrieved the bag mid-journey, and because of it, Narissa nearly got him half an hour ago.
No doubt it was something important if he hadn't forgotten to retrieve it while running for his life.
"Hand over whatever's inside the bag, and I'll let you go." Narissa decided to settle for less.
"This?" The man looked at the bag on his back. "Sorry, can't do. It's personal property. However, your body's a different story. From what I saw, you can give any model a run for its money. Seriously, you should show it off instead of dressing up like a tomboy. Why conceal your assets when you should be showing them off to the world?!"
"Another word, and I will rip your lips away from your face!" Narissa, once again, hit the roof and lost all patience to talk. "Forget it. Say your last words!"
Sigh… The man sighed with melancholy and became depressed all of a sudden. "I have wanted to make more money while I'm young so that my weak, ailing sister will get the treatment she needs. Since you won't forgive me, I shall atone for it with death!" The man buried his face in his hands and sobbed while speaking, then jumped off the cliff the next second.
Of course, Narissa didn't really want the man to die, so she ran to him at once. But lo and behold, the man had already opened the parachute and was in no danger the moment she looked down the cliff.
Weak and ailing sister? Atone his misdoing with death?! All but bullsh*t! He had long thought of an escape and deliberately lured me here!
Having traversed the darker side of the world for so long, it was Narrisa's first time meeting such a sly man.
"You son of a b*tch!" Livid, she thundered down the cliff. "Pray that you never see me again, or I will make your life a living hell!"
Below, the man smirked triumphantly while holding onto the paracords. "Don't worry, that day will never come!"
Followingly, he adjusted the descent and disappeared from Narissa's line of sight in two shakes.
…
Darkness enveloped the whole of Wegas as night fell, and the doorbell rang just as Ariel came out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel.
With that, she put on an outfit before answering the door, only to have Danny barge in immediately and cup her face while attacking her lips, all while pushing her back into the house.
Ariel had wanted to say something, but the man wouldn't give her a chance to speak at all.
It wasn't until the young woman was pinned against the TV wall and an untimely throat-clearing rang out beside them that Danny finally came to himself. He stopped and turned around to find his dear mother-in-law sitting on the couch, changing the channel with the remote.
Mortified, he lowered his head at once, wishing there was a hole he could bury himself in.
Ariel, on the other hand, hurriedly eyed her mother while holding back her laughter.
