Chapter 1128
“Because I'm a skilled fighter who has no feelings for you, and I am also capable of looking after your niece and nephew.” Sally brought the car to a halt at a red light before continuing, “The Zeigler family won't take a side, so the Gaudette family refuses to let them remain in power because they posed a threat. After taking out the Zane and the Loake families, the Gaudette family will go after the Zeigler family.”
Feeling her nicotine addiction kick in, Sally retrieved a box of cigarettes from the armrest storage and lighted one.
As it was Cooper's car that she was driving, the cigarette belonged to him as well.
Unable to stand the intense smell of his cigarettes, Sally rolled the windows down to allow some ventilation. Having a sudden blast of cold air on her face helped clear her head instantly.
“I'll make a quick stop for a box of cigarettes,” she said while handing him the lit cigarette.
Cooper nodded as he took it over and began puffing away.
Sally pulled over by the side of the road and went to buy a pack of cigarettes with lower tar content. “Keep going,” Cooper said when she returned to the car.
Sally took a puff of her cigarette and rested her left hand outside the car window to avoid stinking the car up.
“Genevieve is the biological granddaughter of Old Mr. Zeigler, so you wouldn't just sit by and watch as others tried to harm the Zeigler family. As long as the Zeigler family still stands, the Gaudette family wouldn't dare lay a finger on Specter Corporation and Genevieve's kids. I have a grudge against the Gaudette family, and you want to take them out as well,” Sally continued as she operated the steering wheel with one hand.
Wow... Sally really is a smart woman. The fact that she hasn't done anything rash even after what happened to the Loake family shows that she's been holding things in.
Cooper smiled as he tapped the cigarette against the ashtray. “It's a shame your father wouldn't let you get into politics.”
The Gaudette family may appear to be idle at the moment, but they'll surely strike if anything happens to the Zeigler family. I have no friends in the government, so I won't be able to protect Specter Corporation if anything happens to it. That is why I bailed Sally out. I need to work with her to destroy the Gaudette family.
As the car passed by the Harry Winston jewelry store, Cooper asked Sally to pull over by the side of the road.
“Pick a ring and make sure you wear it all the time. Otherwise, it'll be hard to explain it to the kids.”
Seeing that he was persistent about it, Sally had no choice but to follow him into the store.
