Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1158

Serena narrowed her eyes. "He's heavily paranoid. He might have, or he might not have."

"He could already have someone on the way to check on us right now."

Nicholas tilted his head, his warm breath brushing against her ear. "So, what's our next move?"

Serena shot him a look. "Why are you asking me? Since when did The Blackwood Crown Prince need someone else to hold his hand?"

Nicholas chuckled, resting his chin in the crook of her neck. "My sole purpose in life is to take orders from my fiancée."

"You point, I shoot."

His deep, magnetic voice carried a seductive tension, his breath ghosting over her skin.

Serena felt a flush creep up her neck but couldn't be bothered to push him away.

She accepted his embrace, keeping her eyes glued to the screen.

The display switched to a complex interface where a red progress bar was surging forward.

It was seconds away from hitting one hundred percent.

Nicholas played along seamlessly. "At your service."

Serena rolled her eyes at his antics.

The tycoon let out a massive sigh of relief. "Then do it! Process it now!"

Mordecai chuckled. "Certainly, my most valued guest. However... per our rules, emergency appraisals are heavily discounted. If you don't mind the cut, I will have someone finalize the transfer right away."

"I don't care! Just do it!" the desperate man shouted.

Mordecai smiled. "Very well. A core asset valued at one hundred million dollars will grant you twenty million in bidding credit. I'll authorize the transaction immediately."

The tycoon was struck dumb.

That exchange rate was nothing short of daylight robbery!

Yet, despite the extortionate terms.

A chorus of voices erupted over the public channel, perfectly willing to throw it all away. "I agree! Take it all! Mortgage everything!"
