To Jamie’s surprise, Anita seemed to take extra ‘care’ of the person named Smart, not only did he knock him out, but he also threw in a few kicks. This guy would not wake up for a day or two, at least.
“This Smart person had some means of automatically destroying data. Although it seems that they can’t directly operate on the data now, I can’t guarantee that they won’t have other methods. So, we’ll let Mr. Smart sleep for a few more days. When all the dust settles, it won’t matter if he regains consciousness.” Seeing Jamie’s suspicious expression, Anita patiently explained.
That the scene of Jamie holding a gun with trembling hands just now has changed his opinion of Jamie greatly.
As expected of someone from a famous family. Although he was a hedonist, he had inherited the family’s excellent qualities. Even if his legs were trembling with fear just now, he would never be soft when it was time to make a move.
“Okay, now it’s time for us to meet Mr. Snow.”
After a while, they spotted Snow hiding in the basement. He was standing by the door, trembling, with a shovel in his hands.
Judging from his stance, he should be planning to ambush and kill if things went wrong.
If Anita had not called out beforehand, he would have been hit by the shovel.
“Laine, it’s great that you’re here, I knew you were a trustworthy friend!” Snow grabbed Anita’s hands, tears streaming down his face.
During this period, he must have suffered a lot, so he was greatly moved when he finally saw someone here to rescue him. He had no idea that at least half of the hardships he suffered were all due to Adrian.
Although it was his fault that the United States intelligence agents were chasing him, the Qari people who ‘chased’ him previously were all precisely guided to his locations by Anita
Anita knew he had to act as if he did not know who Snow was, or all his previous efforts would be wasted.
With Snow’s shrewdness, if he knew that Anita had already unlocked his identity as an agent, he would surely guess Anita’s role in the entire pursuit.
Anita nodded slightly. “It’s roughly the same as I thought. An ordinary person won’t have so many people go after them. Alright, I’ll make this brief. Before I take you away from here, tell me, what is the big gift you want to give me?”
