Chapter 491 - 319: Secret Mission (3)
Because!
The bounty at the Audrey Grand Hotel has not been withdrawn —
Killing Church Court members can earn you a generous Gold Coins reward!
...
As the assassination of Church Court members continues!
The pile of Gold Coins at the entrance of the Audrey Hotel is rapidly diminishing.
The hotel staff watched as the once-spectacular pile of Gold Coins gradually got smaller, feeling a bit distressed.
They whispered among themselves:
"These Gold Coins were hard-earned by us, and now they’re just being given away, what a pity."
"Yeah, who knows when this will end, if it goes on like this, the Gold Coins will be gone."
...
However!
The ever-money-minded Audrey, however, saw it very plainly —
Although the Gold Coins were distributed, they didn’t leave Phantom Star City.
Now that the Audrey Alliance is the master of Phantom Star City, the money will ultimately return to Audrey in various forms.
It’s just a matter of moving money from one hand to the other.
...
And on this day!
Lin Lang lay comfortably by the rooftop pool at the top of the hotel.
The sunlight gently shone on him, warm and cozy.
He wore a pair of exquisite sunglasses, his eyes slightly closed, with a relaxed smile on his lips.
Audrey was beside him, looking at him with gentle eyes.
From time to time, she would spear a piece of fresh fruit with a fork and gently feed it to Lin Lang’s mouth, demonstrating her tenderness and thoughtfulness.
At this warm moment!
A graceful secretary hurried over, slightly bowing and respectfully said:
"Mr. Lin, someone is looking for you downstairs."
Upon hearing this, Audrey was slightly stunned, a surprised expression appearing on her face.
Lin Lang’s background was mysterious, and it was rare for anyone to suddenly come looking for him!
She gently furrowed her brows, thought for a moment, and said:
"Let them come up."
The secretary nodded and turned to leave.
Soon!
A sound of light footsteps approached.
Lin Lang slowly opened his eyes, removed his sunglasses, and looked in the direction of the sound.
Audrey also looked toward the sound, and when she clearly saw who it was, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes —
Appearing before them were Xina and Natalia from the Special Agent Bureau.
Xina wore a black long trench coat, her long blonde hair radiated energy, and her gaze held a seductive charm.
Meanwhile, Natalia wore a tight-fitting agent suit, outlining her stunning figure!
Her long hair draped over her shoulders, her face icy and alluring, exuding an aura that kept others at bay.
...
Audrey looked at the graceful Xina before her, and the cold and alluring Natalia!
Her woman’s intuition made her heart sink!
Especially!
The unusual look in their eyes when they glanced at Lin Lang made Audrey sharply realize —
Their relationship with Lin Lang was far from ordinary!
An inexplicable jealousy quietly grew in her heart —
She always believed she was the only one in Lin Lang’s world!
Together, they weathered storms and created the beautiful life they have now.
But these two suddenly appeared beautiful women.
One was hot and seductive, radiating lethal attraction;
The other was aloof and pure, as if untouched by the mundane world.
Both were strong rivals!
...
Audrey slightly raised her chin, her eyes flashing with a hint of caution.
Yet she subtly moved closer to Lin Lang, wrapping his arm, declaring her claim.
Her lips slightly curled into what seemed like a friendly smile tinted with a touch of challenge, and she said:
"Oh, it’s two beautiful ladies, are you quite familiar with Lin Lang?"
Xina naturally sensed Audrey’s hostility.
She gave a light laugh, her smile like a blooming rose, vibrant and charming.
She tilted her head slightly, a hint of mischief in her eyes, and said:
"Not very familiar, but we’ve had quite a few ’collaborations’ with Mr. Lin, been through some things together!"
She emphasized the word ’collaborations’!
Meanwhile, Natalia maintained her aloof posture, glancing at Audrey with a detached look, saying nothing.
But her slightly furrowed brows seemed to also express her attitude toward Audrey!
...
Lin Lang, looking at this tense standoff, couldn’t help feeling a bit helpless.
He gently patted Audrey’s hand, signaling her not to be overly tense, then turned to Xina and Natalia and said:
"Just say what you came here for."
Xina put away her smile, her expression becoming serious, and said to Lin Lang:
"We’ve come this time because we encountered a very tricky mission, and only you can handle it."
Natalia added from the side:
"We’ve tried many methods, but none have succeeded. We had no choice but to come to you for help."
’So they came for business...’
As Audrey listened to their words, her jealousy slightly eased.
But she still felt a little uneasy.
...
Although Audrey was still silently infuriated and slightly worried about Lin Lang, she was ultimately a sensible person.
Seeing that Lin Lang now needed to focus on listening to Xina and Natalia explaining the situation.
She gently bit her lip and softly said to Lin Lang:
"Then you go ahead and talk. I have something else to attend to."
With that, she gave Xina and Natalia a slight nod and turned to leave.
Her steps had a hint of melancholy, yet also exuded an understanding generosity.
...
After Audrey left, Natalia looked seriously at Lin Lang and began to speak:
"Lin Lang, the situation is somewhat tricky now."
"The Church Court has used their connections within the Special Agent Bureau to request cooperation in jointly dealing with you."
