Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 897

“You have dealt with Lindsay twice, with the first time taking place one year ago and the second time just yesterday. You even lost two of your men last time, am I right?” Amanda described what she had learnt before.

However, she didn’t explicitly state that she had learnt about those on her own. She purposely wanted this man to think that it was Lindsay who had spilt the beans.

She wanted to make this man feel that Lindsay wasn’t someone who could keep secrets.

If there were any future dealings, this man would have thought twice before proceeding. However, this was not her aim when she came here.

“Lindsay is giving you one million dollars this time, but I will give you twice the amount.” Amanda pulled one of the chairs by the table and settled down on it. “Do we proceed?”

Casimir shot a glance at her and then simply stood behind the seated Amanda, looking like he was her underling.

At this moment, it was paramount that someone had to boost Amanda’s image and prestige.

The man studied her for some time and concluded that this girl really had some guts considering her tender age.

“What do you want from me?” The man’s face remained unperturbed, and his tone was monotonous. Despite that, Amanda knew that she had aroused his interest.

“What I want is something very simple, and it won’t incur any losses on your side. I just need you to put in some words for me.”

The man narrowed his eyes, “Money is not all that I care about.”

Amanda smiled, “Then what are the other factors?”

“Whether this business will go through depends entirely on my whim.” The man instinctively knew that this girl was a completely different animal compared to Lindsay. She was obviously targeting Lindsay this time.

From what she was implying through her words, although she didn’t make anything clear, he was smart enough to understand that this girl was implying that Lindsay wasn’t someone reliable and her mouth was not zipped shut. She was saying that Lindsay couldn’t be trusted with secrets.

Nevertheless, he still had dealt with Lindsay twice, and contrary to that he knew nothing about this girl in front of her.

He was talking about her origins.

He had investigated Lindsay and found that she was just a naïve girl who fawned over guys, nothing more. Lindsay would never be a threat to him, or else he would never have dealt with her multiple times.

Amanda raised her brows and felt that this man wasn’t someone who could be bought over with mere words. However, according to her father’s words, she knew that she could never reveal all of her cards when engaging in dealing with anyone.

Even if she had nothing up her sleeves, she still had to pretend that she was a threat.

She must let the other party wonder about her true worth and what kind of perks she was holding.

She leaned back slightly and appeared lazy as she placed a hand on the table, “Do you have any idea who am I?”

The man smiled, “Who are you?”

“The first time you corroborated with Lindsay, she had killed someone. You do know about that, don’t you?” Her tone was as light and nonchalant as it could ever be.

The smile on that man’s face seemed fabricated and it seemed like it was on the verge of dissolving. That matter did indeed involve the life of someone.

If he were not careful, a lawsuit would be waiting for him. It had been a year, and just as he was slowly letting down his guard, why would this girl suddenly bring this up?

“Who are you, really? Don’t tell me that you were supposed to die a long time ago.” The man glared at her with a stern gaze.

Amanda shrugged, “What if I told you that I am just like you said?”

“I don’t believe you. That woman was dead, and if I were not wrong, even her bones would have turned into ashes by now.” At that time, he had investigated thoroughly and made sure that she was indeed a dead woman.

“Are you really sure about that? That she’s dead?” Amanda asked with a sly smile.

In fact, she didn’t know the identity of that one man and woman who had died in that fire. She also didn’t know why did that man who used to harm her end up disappearing from the face of the earth.

However, they didn’t know about her conversation with Lindsay at that time too.

With how things were looking, she could have said anything and it would have sounded like the truth.

There were a lot of inexplicable aspects to that incident. Judging from the fact that her death had been shoved under the carpet so secretively, everyone must have thought that she was really dead.

As for those who had harmed her, besides Lindsay, the other perpetrator had gone missing.

She didn’t know what was up with that, but for now, she had to use it to her benefit.
