Carney just responded coldly.
But to Maria, Carney's indifferent response was a big deal. It meant that Dixon still had her in his heart, even more than Old Mrs. Borris!
She sat in the back row and said to Carney, "Stop by the Häagen-Dazs later. I want to buy some ice cream, Bro. Dixon likes it too."
Carney also replied mechanically, not caring how arrogant Maria was behind him.
An hour later, Carney drove Maria back to the Borris Family and sent a message to Dixon.
"Maria was sent back to the Borris Family."
"Good." Dixon turned off his phone screen. His eyes were deep and complicated.
On the other side, Maria arrived at the Borris Family and quickly sent a message to Cecil.
"Dixon brought me out. When will that plan be implemented?"
"Don't worry, Miss Evans, I will definitely help you get rid of Sonia, as long as you cooperate with me in a play..."
The mantis stalked the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. This would be a game in the game. Who was the mantis? And who was the cicada?

Late at night, Dixon, who was in a high building, stood up to get a bird's eye view of the land below him. His delicate, cold face was filled with a murderous intent to keep out of the way. Two earrings shone in his ears, just like his exquisite pupils.
The man had a fair and handsome face. Countless women in this Seaside City wanted to be the woman in his arms. He was rich and powerful. And he had a face that drove them crazy. A man like him was their Prince Charming.
But now, all Dixon was thinking about was Sonia's lonely back, which he was going to guard for the rest of his life.
The night wind whistles. It was after the New Year. It was not as cold as it was at the beginning of the winter. Some trees had even drawn new shoots. Spring was almost at hand.
The man squinted and looked at the building beneath his feet, feeling a sense of loneliness from a high place.
Dixon thought that if he fell from this height, the last face he would think of would be whose face?
Sonia had recently become popular because of her magazine shoot. So, many offers were coming in. On that day, Chris came back to work at the branch. Sonia and others went to pick him up. But at the airport, they were photographed by the paparazzi who were spying on them. The photos spread to the internet and the gossip started again.
"The new fashion icon is waiting for her male friend at the airport. Their relationship is close and enviable."
The title was leading. And the angle of the sneak peek was ambiguous. The photos looked like Sonia and Chris were making out, which made them look like a young couple.
These photos were taken and posted in gossip magazines. And then countless people outside the circle were saying, "Muse Sonia was together with Chris now!"
"Who is Chris?"
"The super famous foreign designer director! " "He was the chosen designer for the most famous fashion show!"
"That's amazing!'
However, people inside the circle were saying... "Oh, those craps were really boring."
"If Chris likes women, I'll turn my head off and kick it as a ball."
Asuka, in particular, was laughing the hardest, "It's more convincing to say that Sonia and I are dating than to say that Sonia and Chris are in a relationship."
A bunch of young models was yelling, "Yeah!" Everyone in this circle knew that Chris was gay! This gossip could only fool the masses. But in this circle, no one would believe it!
"..." He cautiously glanced at his boss beside him. Dixon had maintained this news-watching pose for ten minutes without moving.
He could guarantee that Dixon had read the news no less than ten times.
Dixon's eyes could pierce a hole in his phone.
Carney also wondered who reported this news today. Why did they write Sonia and Chris together? He thought Sonia was not that kind of person. And there was no love in Chris' eyes when he looked at Sonia.
At most, the emotion in his eyes when he looked at Sonia was the affection between family members.
But Dixon had no time to think about Chris' real feelings for Sonia.
He clutched his phone and glanced at the photo. It was Chris walking out with his arm around Sonia's waist. Both of them were wearing hats and sunglasses. They looked like a celebrity couple. They looked so match.
Carney looked at Dixon's icy expression with trepidation, fearing that Dixon would say something like sending someone to kill Chris next.
Dixon took a few deep breaths. And then, he put his phone on the table by the side. The moment he looked up, his eyes looked like a murder knife.
Carney said to himself, 'Since you care about Sonia so much, why did you...? Why did you treat her so badly?'
Dixon's voice was low, tinged with a little chill, "Chris went back to W City?"
"Yes, it's said that he was appointed to go to the branch."
"For Sonia?"
"Yes..." Carney did not dare to go on. Chris had transferred his job back from abroad for Sonia, which showed how much weight Sonia had in Chris' heart.
