Larissa did not finish the meal in the end as well. She left the restaurant with a downcast expression.

As she sat in the car, Larissa pulled the rearview mirror towards herself. In the mirror, she saw her own pair of beautiful and enchanting phoenix eyes. She was just a little satisfied.

Larissa was an extremely confident woman. Even though she had only stayed with Edwards for more than ten minutes, she could still feel the trust and appreciation that the man had for her. She was very clear that when a man started to seriously admire a woman, it was not far from love, because although a man seemed ruthless, he was also sentimental. Edwards stood at a high place by himself, if his wife was not his close friend and could not share his job worries, and then he would definitely replace another woman to resolve his depression.

Larissa had already foreseen that one day, she would be able to confidently step into the highest level of the gate. She would be able to sit in Edwards's office, drink fine wine with him, and chat about life. After drinking and talking about life, it would be like a collision between bodies. Thinking of this, Larissa's face turned red, she immediately started the car, and headed towards her home.

When she parked her car in the basement parking lot of the neighborhood, she took the elevator home.

Just as she arrived at her doorstep, Larissa noticed that something was amiss.

Her expression froze as she hurried towards the door to her own house. When she realized that the door was ajar and had been opened, she was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat and her hands trembled as she pushed the door open.

Was there a thief in the house?

Thinking about that, Larissa angrily pushed open the door, and saw that the house was actually not a mess, but a few men in black suits stood with their hands behind their back, beside a lady dressed in plain clothes, who was sitting on the sofa in her living room, with a cup of tea brewing on the table, leisurely drinking.

"You all... Who was it? How can you barge into my house? " Larissa immediately reprimanded them in anger, and her face turned completely pale.

"Miss Reed, don't be afraid, I'm from Sister May. We're on the phone." The simple woman raised her head. On her ordinary face, there was a hint of a smile, causing people to be unable to see through the depth of her shrewdness. However, taking advantage of her calmness, Larissa did not underestimate her in the slightest.

"Sister May?" Larissa's eyes instantly went wide, only then did she remember the lady who replaced Barry, she could not help but to quickly walk over, but angrily asked: "Sister May, what is the meaning of this? Coming uninvited? You even broke the lock of my house, and you want to be the master here?"

"If Miss Reed is one of us, of course I won't be leaving. I'm afraid they might be outsiders, and then we really need to sit down and chat." Sister May laughed very faintly, with every move she made; there was a kind of ruthlessness.

Larissa was shocked, she then sat down and looked at Sister May with her beautiful eyes, but her heart was still unable to calm down: "Sister May, are you doubting my loyalty? I agreed to do things for you guys because I felt that this matter is very challenging, but I'm not someone from your politics, I have privacy, and I also have the right to stop the trade, aren't you forcing me like a robber?"

"Miss Reed might have misunderstood. When you agreed to work for the President, I remember that you two signed a contract, the contract stated it very clearly, the benefits you asked for are satisfied, the defeat ..." Sister May deliberately stopped in her tracks, as a sinister look appeared in her eyes.

"The higher-ups didn't say that there's no punishment if something fails. I've seen the contract with my own eyes. Don't try to trick me. If I lose, I lose. Do you think I'll have to leave my life to you?" Larissa immediately snorted in anger. She felt that the severity of the matter had yet to reach such a terrifying stage.

"That's why if you did not write anything about the result of failure, it does not mean that there is nothing. Miss Reed should have seen the outcome of Barry's defeat, right? This is the best example of failure." Sister May's voice wasn't loud, but it directly scared Larissa to the point that she broke out in a cold sweat. Her pair of beautiful eyes widened into a round shape, and she was so shocked that she couldn't utter a single word.

When Sister May saw her terrified look, she sneered: "I came uninvited today just to give you a warning, but it won't be able to stop me, much less other obstacles, I'm not Barry, Barry is greedy for your beauty and has treated you nicely with all kinds of kindness. Mr. President is already angry, all of these missions, I can only allow you to succeed, not to fail, Larissa, I believe you can clearly carry them out, cherish your life, and complete them properly."

"No... You all cannot do this, this is simply threatening me. That was not what I said before." Larissa screamed out in fear, her face turning pale white.

"I don't care who told me that back then, I have a contract for cooperation between us. John Wayne is dead, Barry is dead, even the dead can't explain anything for you, since it's me who is making a deal with you, then ....... I have the final say!" The Sister May's gaze became malicious, the kind of thing that caused people to be afraid of its very bones, was like an invisible rope that tightly tied Larissa up, preventing her from struggling.

"Sister May, Sister May, let me go, I ... I don't want to make this deal anymore, I... I don't want any benefits. I'm begging you, I'm really scared, just let me live. I promise, I won't say a single word." Larissa just realized that life was more important than anything else. Love, fame, all this in front of life, were all insignificant.

"Larissa, what do you think is a trade? Do you mean to give up just like that? If it's really that easy, then what kind of mess is this world in? If you don't want to say it, then why should I believe you? You've already met with Edwards secretly tonight, and I don't know what you've told him. I don't know. I'm a suspicious person. Don't embarrass me if you don't believe me easily. We all work for Mr. President." Sister May casually drank some tea, drank it all up and put it down. Her eyes were calm as she looked at the struggling Larissa without a shred of pity.

"Sister May, Edwards and I really didn't say anything. He only invited me to a meal and praised me a little, but I really didn't say anything." Larissa tried her best to explain, but couldn't.

"Edwards is praising you? this is truly rare, Edwards is so arrogant and proud, he easily doesn't put any woman in his eyes, I never thought that he would actually praise you, this means that you are quite capable, and is also the most suitable candidate for this mission, Larissa, didn't you succeed in half?" When the Sister May heard her words, her eyes instantly lit up. She was very satisfied with the progress that she and Edwards had made.

"No, no, Sister May, I'm not suitable, I'm really not suitable. Edwards is too deep, I can't see through him, I don't know what he's really thinking; I really have no way of attracting him." Larissa's words did not make sense, and she started spouting nonsense.

"Larissa, don't struggle anymore. You have no choice, and I have no choice either. You are the one who we released. You're not putting Mr. President in your eyes. "The Sister May did not want to waste time with this woman, she stood up, her face turned cold, and said word by word: "Larissa, listen carefully, Edwards is your ultimate goal, I do not care what methods you use, either you trick him into joining the President's team, or, kill him, he is a stumbling block to the President's side, if he dies, Joseph will lose his support, and defeating him will be even easier, if you can do these two things, then you will become a big shot. What do you want, what wealth do you not have?"

"Kill ... Killed people?" Larissa's eyes widened in shock as she stared fixedly at Sister May, shaking her head mechanically: "No, no, I do not dare, killing is a crime, a capital offense, I cannot do this."

"If you don't dare to kill, then use your beautiful appearance to lure that man over. At that time, he might even be your man; don't you want to be the Young Mistress of Wayne Family?" The corner of Sister May's mouth raised, the last few words caused Larissa's dead grey eyes to light up a little.
