Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 142

He watched Miranda's silhouette. “Whatever you do, it’s your free will.”

There was a slight pause in his voice. “Remember, you’re free. No one can force you.”

After saying that, Elian switched to a lighter tone and chuckled. “I'll pick you up next time when you check on Mr. Ashcroft.”

Miranda knitted her brows slightly but only resumed walking towards the door after Elian finished speaking.

Elian kept the smile on his lips as he watched Miranda enter her home. It was only when she disappeared from sight that he turned and headed towards his car parked nearby. The smile gradually faded, replaced by a steely seriousness.

As he opened the car door, his phone rang. His expression remained cool, a sharp glint in his eyes. “If you’re looking for someone, go to the police. Why come to me?”

With that, he ended the call and glanced back towards Miranda’s villa. After a few seconds, he got into the driver’s seat.

Whether they had the ability to get her on board was their problem. Finding her was also their issue. Using him to find her? No way.

When Miranda got home, Crystal was still buried in her lab, working away. Lately, Crystal had been busy writing a paper for a journal, so Miranda didn’t disturb her. She grabbed a can of cold Coke and headed upstairs.

Elian’s words echoed in her mind, and she furrowed her brows slightly. “Why the sudden concern?”

It puzzled her why Elian would say such things out of the blue. But she had a hunch.

Lately, she had noticed unfamiliar faces lingering around, always in her vicinity. Her location seemed to have been compromised. The question was whether these people were from the law or the underworld.
