"I don't even know where she is, so why would I hurt her?"
Della rolled her eyes.
In fact, this was the main reason why she had come to replace Larry. She was trying to indirectly let him know that she had no idea where Joan was so that he would not blame her if anything were to happen to Joan.
Naturally, she was confident in Abelyn's efficiency and trusted that something huge would happen within the next few days.
"Why are you asking about her?" Larry retorted, narrowing his eyes.
"It's not like the two of you are close"
"I'm just asking out of pure concern" she pouted.
"I hurt her in the past and still feel sorry about it"
Ah... The lies I tell... Of course I don't feel sorry at all.
They chatted for a while longer before Della left, smirking to herself.
Just you wait, Larry.
You've got a big storm coming your way.
Ever since Fred returned to the country, Della's movements were restricted.
As a result, there were many things that she couldn't do while under surveillance.
"What? You want to delay the plan?"
Abelyn complained loudly through the phone.
"But I already found out where she lives!"
She was only working together with Della to get revenge on Joan, but Della had an annoying habit of ordering her around without a care in the world.
That was because Della understood Abelyn, and she knew that the man whom Abelyn was in love with, Dustin, also used to be in love with Joan.
"Chill out. Patience is a virtue" Della told her calmly.
She didn't want to lose one of her pawns so easily.
"We'd better advance carefully. If we get found out, all your dirty deeds will be exposed to the world. You can't say I didn't tell you so"
Abelyn swallowed her anger back, carefully considering Della's words.I guess she does have a point...
We can't rush this, or else our carefully laid-out plans might all go to waste.
"Who are you talking to, Abelyn?"
Dustin approached her. Her gaze darting away from him, she quickly hung up the phone.
"Oh, just a friend!"
Why does she look so nervous? He fixed her with a perplexed stare.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
He held her face in his hands, squeezing her cheeks gently.
Abelyn couldn't stop herself from laughing happily as she stared at the handsome face she had grown all too familiar with. She wrapped her arms around him tightly, showing no sign of letting go of him. What's going on? Dustin furrowed his eyebrows slightly.
And just like that, Abelyn's plan had to be put on hold for several days.
Meanwhile, Caspian had been constantly clinging to Jessica and asking her about Joan.
However, he kept getting brushed off and fed random excuses every time he tried.
Larry had also ordered several of his men to go and investigate Joan's whereabouts.
His attitude toward Jessica was now colder than it used to be.
Jessica knew deep in her heart that although no one was saying it out loud, they were all blaming her for this chaotic situation.
"Larry?" she asked timidly as she approached him.
The man turned his face away from her, training his gaze on the file in his hands and staying silent.
Why is she pretending that we're still close friends and "god siblings" when she wouldn't even tell me where Joan is? "Come on, don't be mad.
You're making me feel guilty she pouted, clutching onto his arm and shaking it cutely like a child asking for a piece of candy. Then stay feeling guilty.
Larry kept his mouth shut and offered her no response.
After a long, insufferable period of trying to get Larry to react to her, Jessica finally caved.
"Ugh, fine!"
She threw her hands up in the air.
"I'll tell you! But you absolutely have to promise me one thing!"
"Tell me what?"
Larry set down the file.
"I'll tell you her address, but you can't go look for her! You can watch her from afar and provide her protection that way, but you cannot, under any circumstances show yourself to her! If not, she's going to accuse me of betraying her again" she whined sadly as conflicting emotions swam in the depths of her eyes.
