The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 2139
"..."
Watching the two siblings whisper back and forth in rapid-fire Mandarin, Vargas felt his blood pressure skyrocketing.
He could see exactly what was happening.
This 'Nine' was entirely unmanageable.
If he wanted her compliance, he had to play her game.
"Half an hour is quite enough." Vargas stood up, his tone returning to its icy baseline. "Nine, I believe it's time we discussed our terms."
"..."
Charlotte casually tossed her fork onto her plate. She cast a dismissive, freezing glance in his direction. "Let's discuss, then."
"Within three days, I need you to completely bypass the maritime security grids for every major international port."
Vargas didn't bother sugarcoating it; he went straight for the demand.
In exactly two days, his cargo had to cross international borders.
"..."
Charlotte stared at him, a faint, mocking smirk playing on her lips. She practically purred, "Two days?"
"That's right. Two days."
Assuming she was about to refuse, Vargas's eyes darkened, and he laid out his leverage. "The explosive strapped to Mr. Gates' leg is on a three-day timer."
"So, Nine, you don't have a choice. And you certainly don't have room to negotiate."
"Who said I was negotiating?"
Charlotte leaned heavily against the back of her chair. Now that she had eaten her fill, she was looking delightfully lazy. "It's just a flimsy little firewall. I don't need two days for that."
Donald: "?"
Vargas: "??"
"Thirty minutes before your cargo hits the border checkpoints, your problem will magically disappear."
Charlotte wiped her hands meticulously and stood up, stifling a small yawn. "Have two rooms prepared for us. Thanks."
"???"
Vargas found himself utterly incapable of reading this girl. Her mind operated on an entirely different wavelength. He narrowed his eyes, his voice dripping with suspicion. "Nine, I strongly advise against trying to play games with me."
"Unless, of course, you're perfectly comfortable gambling with your brother's life..."
"Lottie."
