Chapter42.
She scoffed. No fun. Death lack the thrill. Giving that bitch AIDS, making her suffer a living hell… that would be much more
interesting.
At that moment, Vera approached. “Tanner, sweetie, let me introduce you to a few people.”
She led Tanner away, whispering, “Did you make ? Did she sign the compensation agreement?”
Tanner paused, then answered confidently, “Of course. I’ll send you the agreement tomorrow.”
Wonderful, Tanner, you’re amazing.” Vera beamed.
Nothing much, I just used a little trick. It’s my honor to help you, Auntie.”
Such a good girl. Soon you’ll be calling me something else.”
I’ll call you Mom right now!”
They exchanged smiles. Tanner told her wolf no need to worry, “ANYWAY, THAT BITCH IS DEAD! SO THIS AGREEMENT OR WHATEVER IS USELESS NOW!”
ason finished socializing with a few friends and stepped out onto the balcony for some air. He lit a cigarette, took a drag, and then lialed a number.“She’s still at her parents‘ house? She hasn’t even left the house? Alright, I understand.”
He frowned and hung up, finishing his cigarette before returning to the ballroom.
Jason, help me choose which one is prettier. Mrs. Lin’s pink diamond set is so beautiful, the design is unique. And Mrs. Luis‘ ring is nice too…” Tanner approached, excitedly showing him the auction catalog.

How did this jewelry end up with Mrs. Lin?
He couldn’t help but think of the empty jewelry boxes in our closet.
We have the same taste! I love this pink diamond set too. Mrs. Lin is too old for it,” Tanner chattered, completely oblivious to his ¡rim expression.
ason couldn’t approach Mrs. Lin with the catalog in this setting. He took a picture of the page and sent it to Sophia, only to find that she’d blocked him.
He tried calling her… her number was also blocked. His wolf couldn’t sense Sophia’s situation either.
His unease spread. “Go ahead and have fun, I have something I need to do.”
