Chapter 77 Her Dream Lover
“Drive over to that side!” Hansel said.
Looking at the current situation, Piers Brion dared not speak up. After all, he was used to such situations too. As such, he obeyed Hansel and drove his car as instructed.
Nevertheless, the people who were hunting down on Lingo did not give them a chance to do so at all.
Looking at the scene set before his eyes, a solemn expression was set on his small face. “Ram them!”
Piers Brion gave him a side glance. The inconceivable was happening, one after another. Who would have thought this kid would have the guts to order a ramming!
Hansel was very nervous. He looked at him. “Idiot, if you don’t ram them, are you going to be held accountable if anything happens to Lingo?!”
Piers Brion was speechless.
What else could he say? Without hesitation, he pressed on the accelerator and drove into those people.
That scene was most thrilling.
Piers Brion mercilessly rammed them. One should know that at that moment, only one party would survive. Furthermore, Lingo was in their gang, whoever hunted her ought to be terminated.
As the people went flying from the car, Hansel did not feel the slightest fear, instead, he felt cool. This could be due to his natural instincts.
Nevertheless, he did not forget that the most crucial moment was now. “Drive slightly over to that side!” He instructed.
At that instant, he switched on the phone in his hand and asked, “Gretel, are you there?”
“I am, brother!” Gretel was in front of the computer screen, looking serious.
“Have you switched on the computer?”
“Yes!”
“Trace our location and chart us an escape route!”
“Alright!” Gretel was fast-typing with her fingers moving swiftly across the keyboard. Despite not being as fast as Hansel, she was proficient in her own right.
At that moment, Hansel’s car was moving in parallel with Lingo’s.
Hansel rolled down the car window and yelled at Lingo, “Get inside the car!”
Lingo was startled and turned to look at him. When she saw a kid, she frowned.
“Jump inside the car, there’s not much time left!” Hansel shouted again. His small face looked tense. The number of people chasing after them was increasing. If they continued, escape was unlikely.
Lingo made a quick analysis. Seeing those people catching up with her, finally, she decided to hop into Hansel's car.
From her point of view, Hansel looked more like an ally than an enemy. Even if he were to be an enemy of hers, he would be easier to handle compared to those people.
The car stopped and Lingo immediately opened the car door and jumped inside the car.
At that moment, those people who were chasing saw her nearly slipping through their very fingers. They held up their guns and took aim.
Fortunately, Lingo was quick. As soon as she hopped into the car, she closed the door. The bullet hit the car but nothing happened.
Hansel looked at Pier Brion. “Is this an armoured car?”
Piers Brion nodded. “Yes, it has to be one. If not, anyone could easily take us out!”
Hansel went speechless.
Anyone who agreed with him would nod their heads. After all, they were in a high-risk profession. Apparently, Piers Brion had taken all the possible risks and dangers into consideration before he drove an armoured car. Moreover, Hansel might encounter similar situations in the future.
Despite being bullet-proof, the sound of the firearms could still be heard. Lingo felt nervous. She pulled out a gun, rolled down the window and shot those people tailing them.
The leader of assassins was a sharpshooter. She wasted no bullets, each finding their mark.
The sound of gunshots shocked the surrounding people. They ran amok. Lingo did not want this to happen but, given the current situation, it left her no choice.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of the gunshots alerted the public and all of them fled. Lingo’s shots did not hit any civilians. However, the other party sprayed bullets with reckless abandonment and was mowing down the fleeing bystanders.
“Darn it!” Lingo could not help but curse them.
Hansel checked his watch. “Gretel, let me know at once if you detect any empty streets!:
After giving the final two shots, Lingo retreated. That was because she overheard Hansel mention the word. “Gretel?”
She frowned and looked at Hansel, she pondered.
“No one is at Gold Coast Street!” Gretel spoken on the other side.
Hansel heard her and nodded. “Noted!”
“Head to Gold Coast Street!” Hansel said.
Piers Brion nodded and changed his direction immediately.
Those people who were chasing them have not given up. Piers Brion was driving and when he noticed the car tailing behind them, he smirked. “Want to challenge my driving skill, huh! I’ll open your eyes and let you see how the expert drives!” After he finished his words, he made a sudden turn and the car drifted aside. The car tailing behind them overtook them within a moment and their distances were only a few kilometres apart. When they noticed Piers Brion had made a sharp turn, they had already overshot.
That moment was indeed thrilling and exciting while Piers Brion looked very confident and calm.
Hansel could not help but praised him, “Well done!”
Piers Brion did not say anything. He sniggered. He stomped on the accelerator and pressed on.
Seeing another car catching up to theirs, Lingo pulled out her gun, aimed at the tyres of that car and pulled the trigger. The shot hit the target accurately. The car tyre was punctured and the sudden loss of control sent the car into a barrier.
Piers Brion grabbed the opportunity to flee and very soon, the car was nowhere to be seen on the street…
The car stopped somewhere far from the scene.
Lingo pushed open the car door, got out of the car, tidied her hair using her hand in an alluring manner, pulled out a gun and aimed at Hansel’s head.
“Who are you?” She asked coldly.
He was wearing Hell’s Angel Alliance exclusive watch. Despite looking like any other ordinary watch, only the members knew its hidden gimmicks.
But, how did the watch fall into his hands?
Watching Lingo pointed her gun at his head, Hansel felt helpless. “I just saved your life!”
“These are two different matters!” Lingo said coldly. Despite looking gorgeous, her cold expressions left little doubt to anyone that she would not fire her gun shot.
“What’re you doing now?” Piers Brion blurted out. He did not know who he was dealing with. If only he knew her true identity, he would not dare point his gun at her.
Lingo was pointing her gun at Hansel, while Piers Brion was pointing his gun at Lingo.
Hansel did not know what to say. To be precise, he had not thought of what to say yet.
Lingo glanced at him in contempt and smirked, “And you are?”
“I’ll give you a minute to put down your gun and apologize. If not, I’ll kill you before you even know it!” Lingo enunciated each word with killing intent. Her body gave out a sense of chilly and cold-hearted aura.
Piers Brion was stunned. He could sense Lingo’s dominating presence, but he could not leave Hansel unprotected.
He held the gun and did not let go of it.
Just as Lingo was about to take action, Hansel opened his mouth and said, “Lingo, hold your fire!”
Lingo was startled. She realized that not only he knew about her, but also was quite familiar with her. Otherwise, he would not call out her name.
Lingo looked at him. “Who are you?”
“I’m Hansel!” Hansel said. He had thought of all the possible meet-up scenarios many times. Nonetheless, this had been the least expected one.
When she heard the word ‘Hansel,’ Lingo gave a dubious looking expression. One must know that all the while, Hansel was her ‘dream man,’ how could he turn out to be a tiny kid who didn’t look any older than ten!
“Nonsense!” Lingo denied him.
“I’m speaking the truth!” As he spoke, Hansel raised up his hand and showed her the watch. “You may not know me, but you should at least recognize this watch!” The watch was exclusively for the leader of Hell’s Angel Alliance. There were many hidden gimmicks that only the members knew about.
Lingo did not say anything and looked at Hansel. She did not trust him subconsciously. Yet, somehow or other, she started to believe in his speech.
No way! How could this be possible!
Hansel was very capable, how could he be a …child!
At that moment, his watch vibrated. Hansel immediately placed it near to his ear.
It was from Orpheus. “Hansel, how’s everything going on?”
“Everything’s settled. She’s beside me now!” He gave Lingo a glance as he spoke.
“Good. I’ve no more worries then!”
“Please investigate the matter and find out who did this. I need to know an answer!” Hansel instructed him.
“Alright. Noted!”
From their conversation, she was convinced by the fact, albeit unwillingly!
The man whom she has been thinking of was right in front of her, and he looked no older than ten!
As she thought of this, Lingo did not know how to respond. She stood still on the ground. Anyone could tell her what had really happened!
Inside the company.
When Mark Pattinson was present in the company, all kinds of gossip died down and nobody dared to speak a word.
In the afternoon, at a meeting, Mark Pattinson behaved very differently. During the meeting, he was looking very serious and focused.
Everyone started to make their own guesses. Could it be that Mr. Pattinson was stressed out?
Could Kathleen Turner’s case be stressing him out??
Nonetheless, the gossip was carried out discreetly as no one dared to speak out before Mark Pattinson.
Lyla glanced at him. He pursed his lips and did not show much expression.
Mark Pattinson did not look at her and remained very focused on the meeting.
“Mr. Pattinson, regarding the cooperation with the Karin’s Corporations, we’re still looking for a suitable candidate for the negotiation. Who do you think would be the suitable person?” Someone raised the question.
Mark Pattinson frowned. He looked at everyone. “Anyone has any good ideas?”
Lyla sat aside and remained silent.
At that moment, someone made a suggestion. “I think Ms. Lowe is able to take up the task. As a newcomer, she has managed to tackle a few projects successfully. Therefore, I think she is a suitable candidate!” That person nominated Lyla.
Lyla remained seated. She frowned a little and said nothing.
At that moment, Mark Pattinson glanced at her. His gaze was calm and cool, and without further deliberation, he said in an official manner, “Ms. Lowe, what do you think of this?”
Lyla raised her head and exchanged glances with him. Her heart rate was beating fast. Nevertheless, she pretended to stay calm. “I’m fine with it!”
“Good. The case will be passed to you then!” Mark Pattinson said.
Lyla nodded. “Noted!”
“In my opinion, Ms. Lowe alone may not have been that persuasive. After all, Karin’s Corporations is a multinational conglomerate. If Ms. Lowe were to go there alone, there is a lack of sincerity. I opine that some one with higher authority should go along with her!” Ethan Miller suggested.
His words made sense.
Mark Pattinson thought about it for a while, then he looked around. “Anyone who wants to go?”
Everyone fell silent. Nobody spoke. That was because most of them lacked the authority.
Lyla looked at them, but remained speechless.
At that moment, Ethan Miller opened his mouth and said, “Mr. Pattinson, you may have to go along with her. This will look more sincere and with your goodself showing up, the success rate will be higher!” Ethan Miller looked at him as he spoke.
