Ex-Husband Goes Money Comes By Yvone Zabielski Chapter 173


    Chapter 173 Old Friend?


    Tyler took a look at Nell and was a little worried. He wanted to say something but stopped on


    second thought. “Ms. Zumthor…”


    Vi waved her handzily and said, “You may leave now.”


    As soon as the two of them left, she received a call from Russell


    “Vi, I‘ve checked it carefully. There is no man who looks like iliis in ihe McGrawmily.”


    Pursing her lips tightly, Vi was lost in thought.


    Russell continued, “It‘s possible that your new recruit, Nell, lied to you, or that he has been hiding it fro


    m you for a long time. Anyway, you can‘t trust him all the time. And you should be careful with Nell.”


    “Okay, Russell. Don‘t worry. I know what I‘m doing.”


    After hanging up the phone, she look out the sketclibook from the drawer and turned to ile page with th


    e portrait of the man in ck. She read it carefully for a while before continuing to work


    She didn‘t leave for Color World with Nell until it was almost time to get off work.


    Nell drove the car and Vi sat in the back seat.


    It was quiet in the car. Nell looked at hier through the rearview mirror from time to time.


    Vi noticed his gaze.


    “What do you want to say?”


    Nell hesitated for a while and then said. “Ms. Zumthor, I was sent to kill you before. The people around


    you have always been suspicious of me. Why do you


    trust me? Why do you only take me to protect you tonight? Aren‘t you afraid that I will really do somethi


    ng to you on the way?”


    Vi smiled sweetly.


    “Now that you work for me, of course, I will absolutely trust you. Besides, I am not bad at martial arts. I


    can beat you alone.”


    Nell also smiled.


    He liked her straightforwardness.


    The two of them chatied happily. Suddenly, Nell wanted to lease her. “What if


    I collude with them and I‘m not the only one to kill you?”


    Vi lowered her eyes and looked out of the window casually.


    “Can you?”


    Before Nell could answer, they arrived at Color World


    Vi told him to hide in the dark if there was nothing else.


    After that, she went into the bar by hersell.


    Because she was wearing a gracious and ssical ck velvet gauze dress tonight. As soon as she


    entered, she looked a little out of ce with the inen and women in the bar.


    But Vi didn’t care about that. She just looked straight at the private room that Jerry booked.


    In the corridor, a tall man with sunsses brushed past her.


    She suddenly stopped and her expression suddenly became very serious.


    Because just now, she seemed to have faintly seen the man‘s temple under the sunsses. There was


    a ck mole, which looked a little familiar.


    “Sir.”


    She turned around and looked at the man with bright eyes.


    The man stopped and turned back slowly.


    Under the sunsses was a handsome face. He was tall and burly, and it seemed that he was over


    6 feet tall.


    Seving that Vi


    was staring at him with a smile, the man was a little confused and said in a calm voice.


    “Is Ms. Zumthor calling me?”


    Vi smiled gracefully and walked two steps toward lim. “Yes, sir. May I know how to get to


    room VIP69?”


    The man remained calm. “I‘m not familiar with this ce. Ms. Zumthor, you can ask an employee of the


    bar.”


    “Judging from your ent, you seem not to be a native of Washington. Are you traveling from another


    city?” Vi‘s voice was soft and her beautiful eyes were gentle.


    The man‘s eyes under the sunsses looked at her, and his face was cold. “Ms. Zumthor, if you want


    to ask the


    way, find the staff; if you want to have a chat, I have something else to do, so I‘m leaving now.”


    Vi smiled and nodded, watching the man‘s figurepletely disappear in the corridor.


    It was not until she turned around that her eyes gradually turned cold.


    When she opened the door of the private room, she found that it was very quiet inside. Only Jerry was


    sitting on the


    sofa and tasting the red wine alone.


    “Did Mr. Felton lie to me that you have an old friend?”


    Jerry poured a ss of wine for her and smiled bitterly. “Vi, do you think I‘m that kind of person? It‘s


    true that my old friend‘sing, but my friend hasn‘t arrived yet. Let‘s have a drink and chat.”


    He pushed the full ss of wine to the table in front of her.


    Vi went straight in and sat down, but she didn‘t take the ss of wine.


    Seeing that she didn‘t want to drink it, Jerry smiled and said, “Just a toast to see me off. Vi, you won‘


    t retuse me, will you?”


    After saying that, he drank a ss of bitter wine with a mncholyce. His blue eyes lost their usual


    coolness, but it


    seemed that he was not reconciled. He filled another ss of wine for himself and raised it to Vi.


    Vi picked up the ss, gracefully shook the red wine, and snitted it.


    She asked tentatively, “I have known Mr. Felton for so many years.


    Mr. Felton shouldn‘t y tricks, right?”


    Jerry’s expression became serious. “Do you suspect that I pul something in the wine?”


    Vi didn’t say anything or deny it, with a faint smile in her beautiful eyes.


    Jerry suddenly stood up from the sofa, walked up to her, picked up her ss, and drank it up.


    Vi’s eyshes quivered slightly, but her expression didn‘t change.


    Irritated by the distrust in her eyes, Jerry picked up the remaining half bottle of wine on the table and gu


    Because he drank too fast, a lot of wine fell from his lips and slid down his neck, wetting his white shirt.


    After the whole bottle of wine was drunk, he turew it to the opposite wall.


    With a loud sound, it broke into pieces.


    “Can you trust me now?”


    He staggered two steps and stared at Vi with his sad eyes.


    As it feeling hot in his heart, he ripped open two buttons on his chest, and his nice vicle was faintly ex


    Unfortunately, Vi had no time to appreciate that.


    She smiled happily and said in a soft voice.


    “I was just kidding. Mr. Felton, I made you unhappy. Ii‘s my fault. Since it‘s a farewell, I certainly


    have to drink this ss of wine.”

    She stood up, opened a bottle of red wine again, filled a new


    ss, elegantly toasted to Jerry, drank the whole ss without hesitation, and showed him her empty gl


    She didn‘t pay attention to him at all. Jerry‘s heart sank Was it because of Ondo that she had no inter


    Thinking of this, he sat back on the sofa dejectedly. As if he was unwilling to give up, he asked thest q


    “Vi, is it really … impossible for us?”


    “Yes.”


    Vi said indifferently without any hesitation.


    Jerry lowered his head.


    Vi couldn‘t see his expression, but slie could clearly feel a strong sense of frustration and disappointm

    She could see her sadness and disappointment, but she couldn‘t say anything tofort Jerry, let alone


    Just when the atmosphere in the private room was getting strange, the door was gently opened.


    In high heels, a slender figure walked in.


    Vi Turned her eyes subconsciously


    When she saw the woman’sce clearly, she was slightly shocked.
