“Who… who sent you?” Veronica Murphy sat between two men in the back seat of the car, stuttering as she asked. The blond man glared at her and replied, “Who else could it be? It’s Mr. Ludwig, of course.”
“Lv… so, it’s Mr. Ludwig.” Mia Stuart tightly clenched her hands together, unable to control her trembling. The driver, currently driving, looked at the rearview mirror and said to the blond man, “Larry, I think I recognize those thugs from earlier. I believe I’ve seen them before.”
Larry, the blond man, took out a cigarette from the pack and handed it to his buddy on the other side. He furrowed his brow and pondered, “You mean the tallest and most robust guy from earlier?”
The driver nodded, “Yes, yes, him. He looks. familiar, right?”
“Hmm, let me think…” Larry took a drag from his cigarette and suddenly realized something, slapping his thigh, “He’s the bodyguard for that Best Actress, what’s her name… Tang something. We saw them a couple of days ago. at the Emperor Hotel.”
“Oh, yeah, yeah, I remember now. I remember now. No wonder he looked so familiar.” The driver in the front seat nodded in realization.
The other buddy, leaner in stature, asked in confusion, “But the bodyguards earlier clearly said they were Veronica Murphy’s people. Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?”
“Bullshit! Larry and I never forget a face. How could we make a mistake? If anyone’s wrong, it must be those bodyguards who quit and joined Veronica Murphy.” The driver snorted.
Larry scratched his head, “It’s only been a few days, and she already changed bosses? Does Veronica Murphy pay a high salary? I need to find out. If the pay is good, I might switch bosses too.”
“Haha, sure, bring me along when you do.” The lean man chimed in. In the back seat, Mia Stuart, sitting between the two men, lowered her head. As she listened to their conversation, her expression gradually changed.
She tightly gripped her hands, nervously tapping her thumbnail, furrowing her brows in deep thought. The “Best Actress named Tang something” they mentioned must be Eviette Robins. Only the Best Actress would have bodyguards accompanying her!
