"If she cares, I’ll give up completely and I’ll never have any illusions about you again," Yuliana Lynch said resolutely.
Gregory Graham nodded his head.
"Good. Remember what you said."
After he said that, he stood up from the couch.
"From today onwards, I’ll send someone to teach you something. Learn it by heart. It’ll be very useful when you go to Shimon Flinders' side in the future. You don't need to worry about anything else."
He then stepped forward and walked out.
Yuliana stood there and stared at his ruthlessly departing back. Her heart still felt a little dejected.
Even though she had promised to do so, she still could not help but feel a little paranoid.
She suddenly spoke up and asked, "Gregory! Can I ask you one more question?"
Gregory stopped in his tracks, frowned ever so slightly, and looked back at her.
"Just ask."
Yuliana held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes and asked, "When you send me to Mr. Flinders, aren’t you worried that one day I would betray you?"
She thought that this question would make the man care a little.
Even if that kind of care for her was only as a pawn, and not as a man to a woman.
The truth was, no.
Nothing at all.
Even if she was just a pawn in his hand, he never cared. He was so indifferent as if nothing had happened.
He faintly said, "If you're capable of loving him and walking into his heart, even if you betray me, that's your ability. It has nothing to do with me."
Gregory then left without looking back after he said this.
Yuliana stood there dumbfounded.
Halfway through, she did not understand what he meant.
What did it mean that even if she betrayed him, it was fine?
Did she have no status at all in his heart? Was she that unimportant?
Yuliana suddenly felt like crying. She squatted down, raised her hands to cover her face, and bawled.
She did not know how long she had been like that.
When she got tired of crying, she got up and dragged her feet step by step to go outside.
At the same time, on the other side.
Since it was already late at night, Vickie Thomas waved off Andrea and turned off the lights just as she was about to go to bed.
At that moment, there was a sound by the window.
Who was she? She was the infamous number one assassin with exceptional hearing and vision.
Although it was only a slight noise, she still noticed it and opened her eyes at once. She looked towards the window and shouted, "Who’s there?"
The window opened and a shadow leaped in with a whoosh.
Vickie's heart tightened and suddenly remembered her previous car accident. Her eyes grew cold and subconsciously reached for the dart under her pillow.
The shadow leaped into the room and looked around, perhaps because his eyes had not yet adjusted to the darkness, so he did not move hastily.
Just at this moment, Vickie raised her hand and threw a few darts with a swish.
The other party was surprised and dodged the darts with a few flips and side-turns.
Vickie was shocked as she realized that the person was a skilled fighter and that she might not be able to fight him with her half-crippled body and all her injuries, so the only thing she could do was to scream for help.
At that moment, the other party seemed to have guessed her intention and pounced over to the bed.
She was horrified and intuitively opened her jaw to bite the hand that was covering her mouth.
