Sweet Revenge By Nuit 299
Chapter 299 Something Is off
“We met before in France,” He tried to remind her, but it didn’t work
After confirming that Silvia wasn’t pretending, the man didn’t try to remind her again. He said bluntly, “In
the Perfuming Competition, you won me by a nose. My name is Abel Halpert.”
He gestured with his fingers, indicating that he was not much worse than her. Then he reached out his
hand to show his friendliness.
Silvia nced at his hand and nodded slightly as a freeting, “Got it,” she said.
Abel was speechless.
He thought, got it? Whar kind of answer is that? How can you be this proud and arrogant?
“I tried it out in France, and the result was a surprise to me. I wonder when I will have the chance to
compete with you
Silvia nced at the man in front of her. Although his words were polite, it was obvious that he wasn’t
convinced. The implication was that he was carelessst time and did not bring out his best, so he lost
to her. So, he wanted topete with her again and beat her.
“Then… Sometimes, maybe,” with a faint smile, she said lightly and walked out of the store with the
box in her arms.
Watching her leave, the person beside Abel couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Halpert, are we going to let her
go just like that?”
“Since she cane out, we can’t stop her from leaving Aren’t you curious about how she came out?
Are your people doing their job properly?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Halpert. I’ll go check it out immediately!” the person beside Abel said as Abel nced
over.
Raising a hand to stop him, Abel said, “Don’t spook her. Since she cane out today, it won’t be just
a one-time thing. What were they fighting over here?”
You mean… The man nced at Abel hesitantly, and then he suddenly realized. “Got it. I’ll get my
hands on it now!”
They saw what happened and heard most of Silvia and the others’ conversation.
What spices Kelsey sold was not important. The important thing was that Silvia had her eyes on the
spices, and she wanted them. She also said that she would pick them up the next day. Therefore, Silvia
had toe out of the courtyard. They could just wait for her in advance.
Abel didn’t say anything, acquiescing to the man’s actions. The corners of Abel’s lips curled up into a
smile.
Abel wasn’t simply being polite. The trip to France was indeed very fruitful. She surprised him and
made him intrigued
Silvia took a taxi back to the courtyard. When she came out, she had already roughly gotten a general
picture of her surroundings
It was probably a private courtyard. All the construction was built ording to individual design.
Although there were mwny courtyards around, unlike this one, inost of them were ordinary civilian
houses, What was more, there were so many things in this courtyard.
Moreover, which ordinary house would be equipped with walls that were fifteen feet tall? It was almost
like a small
prison.
Facing the gate of the yard, Silvia carried a backpack containing the spices she got tonight. Just as she
was about to walk forward, she suddenly felt something beside her. She immediately raised her elbow
and hit it. At the same time, she spun
The next second, she was held in someone’s arms. The scent and the voice were familiar. “It’s me.”
Opening her eyes wide, Silvia looked at the face in front of her in surprise. “Why are you here?”
“It seems that I am notte.”
Although he knew that she was skilled enough to protect hersell, he only heaved a sigh of relief after
seeing her safe and sound.
She was kidnapped in France. Therefore, he was utterly cautious. Sometimes he might be too much,
but staying vignt was always the wiser choice.
“Something wrong?” Blinking, she recognized his implication.
“Let’s talk somewhere else,” Simon said, pulling her under a big tree not far away. There was a ck
Mercedes-Benz parked there. Under the double cover of the night and the shade of the trees, it was
hard to notice.
sitting in the car, she felt much warmer. She blew on her hands, and in the next second, he held her
hands in his palms.
“It’s sote. Where did you go?” He used his palms to warm her tip, and there was a hint of me in
his voice.
“Treasure hunting ” When she thought of the treasure she found, she could not help but smile. Her
eyes curved, and joy overflowed from the bottom of her heart.
“Look at you, smiling,” Although he said that, he could not bear to say anything else when he saw her
happy expression.
He felt responsible for what happened. He was not thoughtful. He did not expect that someone would
dare to pretend to be a member of the Perfuming Association. Even the invitation letter was sent to the
company. The person behind this was so careless, not afraid of being exposed at all.
Silvia looked at Simon. She could only see a vague outline under the light of the streetmp. However,
it made him more mysterious and outstanding. It sounded like he was ming her, yet his movements
and tone were full of concern. How could she not tell?
“I got something good today, and I got to see you. I’m so lucky today. Why shouldn’t I be smiling?” she
was telling the truth.

“Il you didn’t climb over the wall, would you still be happy?” Simon shook his head. Should he apud
her optimism or scold her for being reckless?
“Eh? How did you know that I climbed over the wall?”
She was very surprised. Did he see her when she was climbing over the wall? That couldn’t be. She
observed. No one sawler. And she was quict. Plus, ir iesaw her then, why did he wait until now?
“The lockused in this courtyard is hebination of thetest password and the fingerprint lock, and
there’s no way you can crack it by yoursell. And there are no other methods that you can use, Climbing
over the wall shouldn’t be difficult for you, and it is the simplest and most effective!”
The result spoke for itsell. She seeded. She was sitting here steadily, asking him questions.
“The wall is fifteen feet high! It was difficult. You think too highly of me!” she exaggerated deliberately,
although what he said was indeed correct.
However, she understated her achievement. What she did was impressive.
In fact, she had some trial runs. Fortunately, there were trees in the courtyard, and the wall was not that
smooth. After a few tries, she climbed up thanks to her skills.
Simon affectionately scratched the bridge of her nose. “It was an impossible task for others. But if you
couldn’t make it, even if I didn’t care, wouldn’t your grandfather be disappointed?”
She was speechless..
What he said was true. Getting out of here by climbing over the wall might be a bit difficult for ordinary
people, but it shouldn’t be a thing for the Austin family.
She dropped the subject and asked with great interest, “You came all the way here. Is there a problem
with the invitation?”
Simon wasn’t nning on going to Washington, and she would return after meeting with the people
from the Perfuming Association. However, he rushed over in such a hurry and talked to her only after
they got in the car. She then thought of what happened today and the courtyard. All of these seemed
so fishy. It was obvious that something was off.
