Chapter 41 Damion's Wish
"Well, I didn't expect you to care so much for me." With that, Raymond picked up his coffee cup and slowly took a sip.
"You almost died once. As your best friend who grew up with you, how can I not care for you?" Nolan frowned slightly and continued, "Your serious injury and retirement were all caused by that organization. You hate them, and they also hate you. After that confrontation, their leader disappeared. This is a bomb that can explode at any time."
"I know."
"Then why are you still so blatant? It's good that you left the military and went into business. If you hide your name, that's fine, but you have to make it known. Are you not afraid that those guys will know you're still alive?"
Raymond smiled faintly at Nolan's roast, but he was moved by his concern.
"Don't worry, the person who can kill me hasn't been born yet!" Raymond took another sip of coffee, and his eyes grew sharp. "I really look forward to them appearing. Do you know how regretful it is for a soldier to not complete his mission?"
The whereabouts of the leader of that organization were not known, and this remained a knot in Raymond's heart.
If he could personally kill the leader in his lifetime, he would be extremely happy.
"Fine, I'm not as sublime as you, Col. Zavala." Nolan breathed a sigh and said, "Maybe I'm worried about nothing. After all, it's been almost ten years now, and those guys haven't appeared again. Maybe they are all dead. Then let's just put them aside. Let's talk about you and Bethany. Do you really like her?"
"No comment!"
Hearing that, Nolan let out a snort.
Then he said, "I am a doctor, and I grew up with you. You didn't choose me to be your personal doctor, but you chose her. I know what you mean. However, regarding what you said just now, I really feel sorry for my sister. Bethany is such a tough woman, and she has two kids. How can her condition be better than my sister's?"
"She is more beautiful than your sister."
Nolan was surprised to hear that.
"Just because of that?" Nolan was a little speechless. "Anyway, my sister is only focused on you. She has never married anyone and has a good family background."
"She is more beautiful than your sister."
"My sister is a popular celebrity, and she's just a little doctor."
"She is more beautiful than your sister."
Nolan lost his words for a while.
"Superficial!" Nolan couldn't help but roast, "I thought you had a good taste. After all, you've seen the world and met many kinds of women. I didn't expect you to be so superficial!"
Raymond couldn't help but smile. He thought, "She's indeed beautiful. Frankly speaking, Bethany is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.
However, she's not only beautiful, and she also has some other small advantages..."
It was already dark when Bethany left Raymond's company. She then went to a phone repair shop to fix the screen. While waiting, she went to a portrait shop.
Just like the last time, the painter drew according to her description of Gina's appearance.
When the painting was finished, however, Bethany frowned. "It's not like her."
"I drew it based on what you described, and that's how it came out."
Bethany didn't think it looked like Gina at all. She thought, "I was too careless back then. I should have taken a photo with my phone."
She could only say, "I don't want it anymore. Thank you." Bethany paid the painter, but she didn't take the portrait, for it was useless.
After Bethany had left, the painter made a phone call and reported in trepidation, "Mr. Shepard, I have done everything you requested."
