His Domineering Lover
Chapter 565

Tracey didn't expect that Ruth, who had not met for a long time, would proactively call her, and of course, told her about Carmen.

"Carmen's case was settled. Even if she could be set free someday, she should subject to a sentence first. How long she had stayed in the jail? Only a powerful person can save her. It seems that Renee has found a strong backer." Tracey murmured.

"Correct. It's a coincidence. I have a friend who worked in the jail. We had a meal a few days ago, and she told me this."

"Who bailed her out?" Tracey was not afraid of Renee, but she just wanted to learn about this mysterious backer so that she could prepare for the hidden enemy in advance.

"I don't know. I only heard that it's a figure and he had friends in both underworld and the legal way. It's not so hard for such a person to bail Carmen out." Ruth said.

Growing up in a rich family, Tracey certainly knew the secrets of how the rich world run. Even if the companies appeared legal, they were having something to do with the underworld, more or less.

And the business circles always worked with the political circles. Therefore, the underworld's power penetrated widely into the unseen place like strong and intertwined tree roots.

Above the soil, trees were healthy and lush. But beneath the ground, the complex of roots was not easily seen.

"Thank you for telling me this. I will be careful." Tracey was grateful for Ruth's news.

"No problem, you are a good person." Ruth's voice sounded, coming from the sky, illusory and remote.

Hostility brought these two women together, but today, Ruth warned Tracey of danger. Tracey smiled lightly.

"How have you been recently?"

"I'm going to marry Edgar," Ruth said.

It had been just a few months since they met for the last time, but Tracey felt like their past was far away. How come so many things became like this?

"You are so young, are you doing this just out of hatred?" Tracey sighed. At that time, Ruth was Edgar's mistress. So many things had happened later and pushed them to this situation.

"Don't ask about my story. I have his child. Now I just want to give my baby home." Ruth didn't say too much and hung up hurriedly.

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Tracey felt quite complicated. Back then, Ruth wanted to take revenge so much, and her wish was indeed fulfilled. But many things were not so under her control. Similarly, Renee was also carried away by hatred. The last time that Renee came to see Tracey was for begging her to save Carmen.

Of course, Tracey didn't care about her begging, and maybe Renee's heart was already broken into pieces. Nobody knew the taste of hatred better than Tracey. Now it was Renee's turn to have this taste. After hanging up, Tracey was still a little uneasy. "Mark, this is not the way back." All of a sudden, Tracey recognized her usual way back had changed.

"President Xia, I found a car is following us. I think it's weird. Let me get rid of it first," Mark said.

Tracey was thinking of Ruth just now and didn't notice outside. As she looked back, there was indeed a black car followed behind. The car looked like the one that Tracey saw when she bought hot drinks. Together with what Ruth had warned, Tracey frowned. "Mark, let's go downtown. The more cars there are, the better it will be."

"Okay, President Xia." Mark immediately caught Tracey's point. In fact, he planned to do so. Wide roads had more cars, and once they went into the busy traffic, the following car would be hard to track them. It happened to be peak hours, so the road was already crowded. Mark directly joined the main road.

Obviously, their intention was found by the stalker, and they drove smoothly and caught up soon. Mark drove the car into the car stream.

It wasn't long before the black car couldn't be seen. Now the traffic jam was serious. Unless they could fly, they had to give up stalking.

Tracey looked back and made sure that there was no car behind. "Mark, stop by the side, I'll get out."

"Okay, President Xia, be careful." Mark knew that they were exposed to the enemy who remained unknown. He was worried and told Tracey to stay alert.

He wasn't followed on the way to pick Tracey up. After she got in the car, the enemy started to show. Apparently, their aim was Tracey.

"I know. You'd better be careful too. Trim the sails." Tracey ordered him before getting out.

About three hundred meters away, a pair of eaglelike eyes fixed on Tracey's body. "What an alert woman." The man inside the car thought. "Sir, should we keep chasing?"

"No. Let's go back," the man said in a low voice.

"Yes, sir."

Tracey went to the nearby subway station to take the subway and then took a taxi home. When she returned home safely, she sighed with relief.

"Miss, why do you look so pale?" Jane stood behind Tracey with a shovel in her hand. Tracey was scared by Jane's sudden shouting.

"Jane, are you always walking in silence?! You scared me."

"Miss, you were not timid before. You don't look good. What happened?" Jane asked with concern.

"I'm okay. It's just...a little cold. Adam hasn't come home yet?" Tracey looked at the empty living room. If Adam came home, he would definitely wait for her in the living room.

"He had an appointment with others tonight, but he especially told me to prepare the dishes for you. You can take a rest first, and food will be ready soon." "Okay." Tracey went upstairs to get changed, still immersed in the scare just now. Adam had an appointment t. When he came back, it should be very late.

Abruptly, the sharp eyes of the stalker and his car appeared to Tracey's head once again and brought her back to the strong uneasiness.

When she was disturbed by uneasiness, a text message came in. It was from a strange phone number, at first reaction, Tracey thought it was a spam.

As read the contents of it, her face changed. "Miss Xia, I'm sorry to scare you today."

Certainly, it was not a spam. As soon as thinking of that pair of eyes, Tracey couldn't ignore this message.

"Who are you?" She quickly replied.

But she didn't get any message back. Tracey was nervous. Right at this uncomfortable moment, Adam was not home.

And Tracey couldn't help missing Adam's arms and his scent again and again, as if only he could really give her peace and make her feel at ease. "Adam, come back, please..."
