Chapter 701: Threatening
Translator: Dess Editor: EbonyFrost
During the night, a group of cars left Augen Manor
Two cars of the bodyguards took up their positions in the front and back, sandwiching the prolonged limo in the middle .
The group didn't drive into Edland City but went around the city's outskirts, heading towards another direction .
Kieran was sitting opposite Anne Aldrich Augen who was filing her red colored nails with a nail file . He stared at her while trying to perfect his plans for the night .
He wanted to use the guests of the dinner as witnesses and bring Sister Reid's statue away from the hospital to the library .
"My gosh, if this keeps on, my nails will be ruined!" Anne Aldrich Augen ranted .
Kieran kept quiet .
When he returned to the manor in the afternoon, she was coloring her nails enthusiastically . Since she couldn't have forgotten about the dinner at night and yet she still painted her nails, this meant that she had it coming to her .
Kieran would never respond to such a conversation in the first place; Kieran also has plans for the night .
Despite both of them only knowing each other for a short time, Kieran knew Anne Aldrich Augen too well . Everything was proceeding according to his expectations .
While Kieran was keeping quiet, Anne Aldrich Augen removed her plain colored flat heels from her right leg which was in in stockings . She extended her long leg, tip-toeing at Kieran's knee .
Although the limo was extra longed, giving it space that other cars couldn't compete with, when Anne Aldrich Augen extended her leg, the space between them was shortening by the second .
It was hard for Kieran to dodge in with such limited space, except for jumping out of the car .
However, as Anne Aldrich Augen's temporary bodyguard, he wouldn't leave her side, similar to the fact that he would never allow her to tip-toe at his knee .
Not only because of the plans but also because of the twisted feeling in his heart, plus a slight dislike for such actions .
Therefore, when the black barrel of the gun was pointed at Anne Aldrich Augen, she quickly changed her expression from a charming and beautiful ranting lady to a slightly paled face with embarrassment .
When she felt the temperature inside the car had plummeted, she knew that Kieran was serious .
"The weapon I gave you isn't for you to point it at me!" Anne Aldrich Augen emphasized .
"I know," Kieran nodded before putting away the gun .
Seeing Kieran go back to his silent state after putting away the gun, Anne Aldrich Augen raised a brow, she seemingly wanted to say something but nothing escaped her mouth .
In simple words, Anne Aldrich Augen was slightly frightened by Kieran .
Was it some bad memory that she reminded him of?
Throughout the rest of the journey, Anne Aldrich Augen's mind was full of that particular matter .
As for Kieran's whereabouts, a smart woman like Anne Aldrich Augen would never send her men to follow and watch him . She knew a fighter stronger than Mayer possessed outstanding and sharp intuition .
Her bodyguards were not even competent enough to follow someone like him and once discovered, their close relationship in working together would surely suffer a major crack .
Anne Aldrich Augen didn't wish for that to happen . It was the most crucial moment for her right now and she wouldn't allow any mistakes .
However, she would never be bored with petty things like sending a driver to drive Kieran to the place he wanted to visit and try to deduce and guess what Kieran had done .
Her secretary reported back to her dutifully about what Kieran had done before that .
Anne Aldrich Augen didn't believe the claims saying Kieran was an amnesia patient but as time passed, she was rather convinced by his actions because no one would act like Kieran, a guy without any common sense and logic .
Despite Kieran was a quick learner, Anne Aldrich Augen could easily tell that all the things were indeed learned in a short time, it was not a disguise .
A person like him in other people eyes was the definition of an amnesia patient!
But Anne Aldrich Augen was different .
Her acquired doubtful nature wouldn't allow her to fully trust anyone, anything, or even the truth .
However, it didn't stop Anne Aldrich Augen from continuing her little guessing game, deducing all kinds of theories and guesses .
Kieran squinted his eyes as he looked at Anne Aldrich Augen's manner . He knew his actions and behavior had successfully raised her suspicions .
After that, it would all depend on the others to "play along" with the plan .
Kieran had quite the confidence in the others "playing along" .
. . .
The outskirts of Edland City didn't only house the Augen Manor but a couple more .
Obviously, Augen Manor was the biggest and the most luxurious amongst all of them .
When Symende Augen was still alive, Augen Manor lived up to its name of being the first manor of Edland City .
Following his death, however, the title instantly proved itself to be only aesthetics without any real worth .
Inside a gold glittered and magnificent hall, three men were sitting around a table .
These three men were powerful and influential people in Edland City, with every breath they blew, the city will shake .
The three of them looked at each other, no one was willing to open their mouth to speak first .
The silence in the hall suppressed the atmosphere .
In the end, the scrawny looking middle-aged man of the three spoke .
