The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 480

He took his seat as well. "I ordered a few dishes and they'll be served soon. See if you like them, and if you don't, feel free to order the ones you like."

I hummed a reply.

Since he was not in a hurry to tell me, there was no reason why I should be in a hurry to ask him either.

Sure enough, Lawrence could not hold himself back and raised his wrist to check his watch before saying," I’d like to partner up with you, Miss Lane."

I raised my eyebrow. "What sort of partnership?"

I asked knowingly. Lawrence knew that but still said, " I hold lots of evidence about Petra's crimes. If you agree to partner up with me, then I'll tell you everything I know."

Everything, huh?

I looked down and smiled. "Mr. Ray, don’t you think it's better for you to work with the police?"

After a pause, I continued, "I'm not the police."

Lawrence furrowed his brows. "Miss Lane, I didn't ask you out here to beat about the bush. You're a clever person, and Petra can't outwit you. You set Benny up just so you could use him to implicate Petra. You

succeeded. But you'll need evidence to bring her down. I'm guessing it's also part of your plan for me to approach you to partner up."

I raised my hand and tapped the table, looking at him with a slight smile. “Mr. Ray, a person who betrays his boss is absolutely terrifying. You promise to give me the evidence if I agree to work with you, but I really don't believe in you."

As though he knew I was going to say this, Lawrence took the folder sitting on the chair next to him and pushed it to me. “Here’s a token of my sincere appreciation, Miss Lane."

I narrowed my eyes and opened the folder, pulling out the contents from within.
