    Chapter 842


    Thus, Sophia said, “I just called Madam Flintstone and was told that Richard will be paying her a visit


    later in the afternoon.”


    Her reply apparently surprised John as he asked, “Oh, really? He is going to the Flintstone


    Residence?”


    Sophia replied, “That’s right, and it doesn’t bode well to you either, does it? Anyway, I’ve been thinking


    of a way to do something about it, but since I can’t be involved directly, is there anything you can do to


    ruin the n?”


    John paused for a while and answered, “I’ll see what I can do, so don’t worry. Everything will be fine.


    As long as Mom doesn’t give in, Richard doesn’t stand a chance at all.”


    Although John’s words made sense to Sophia, she still had a bad feeling about how things would y


    out. Richard is just way too friendly and amiable. I’m afraid it’s only a matter of time that Madam


    Flintstone falls for him if they keep hanging around with each other. While Sophia was known to act on


    her emotions rather than rationality, she still hoped that William could rekindle the old mes with


    Matilda, despite his unpleasant attitude at times. After all, she would love to see a happy ending, in


    which the divorced couple could be back together.


    Meanwhile, John appeared to be busy with work, so he didn’t say much until he hung up the call. He


    then put away his phone and turned around, gazing at the warehouse, where the captives were kept. It


    seems that we’ve made some positive progress in the past two days. Let’s take a look at who we have


    here.


    Nevertheless, John patiently stood outside the warehouse until someone came closer and patted his


    shoulder. “Long time no see, Mr. Constance. Don’t you have anything you want to say to me?” Upon


    hearing that voice, John looked back, only to find Roselia behind him. She was dressed in a sexy outfit,


    and she smiled at John in a seductive manner.

    However, the man only responded by knitting his brows. “You ought to be careful about the bank. Now


    that those few people have gone missing, suspicions are bound to be aroused, so please keep a low


    profile.”


    Roseliaughed it off as she slipped her hand off John’s shoulder to his arm. “Aw, are you showing


    your care for me? Don’t worry about me. I’ll be extra careful.”


    Feeling a certain dislike toward Roselia’s flirtatious attitude, John furrowed his brows even more. At the


    same time, Roselia waited for the man to respond, shooting a gaze at him before she finally took her


    hands off him. Then, she hugged herself and stood beside John as she began to speak in a different


    tone. “Look, my life would have been poorer if we didn’t meet each other, but at least I wouldn’t have to


    live in danger and fear. It really makes me wonder what I’ve done to deserve that from you, John.”


    After a short hesitation, John said, “How much do you want this time? I’ll get Zack to take care of it in a


    jiffy.”


    Roselia shifted her gaze to John, slowly revealing a smile. “Why is it that money is the only thing we


    ever talk about every time? Tsk! Tsk!” Nheless, she soon changed her tune and said, “Anyway,


    perhaps there really is no one else who knows me better than you do.” After that, thedy turned


    around and revealed her curvaceous behind, walking away while waving at the man. “I’m leaving first.


    After all, I’m in a high ce now, and I can’t risk blowing my cover being away for too long.”


    Meanwhile, John didn’t say anything as he watched Roselia’s figure moving further away before he


    entered the warehouse. The surveince camera that was dismantled yesterday turns out to be an


    imported product, built to be waterproof and shockproof. Whoever managed to get his hands on


    something so advanced like this one was definitely no ordinary person. Then, John was instantly


    amused when the next thought crossed his mind. Although this piece of tech might have a long list of


    impressive features, its specificity is probably going to be its dead giveaway. At least, we can begin


    with where it was acquired.


    Later that morning, Zack sent a message that detailed his investigation on the device’s origin. Hmm. It


    looks like the GPS system in this thing was specially ordered from overseas. I guess everything will


    come to light with a little investigation.


    Soon, John entered the warehouse and saw several captives there. While some of them were awake,


    the rest were either asleep or unconscious. Besides, there was also a person tied to a chair who


    seemed to have just taken a terrible beating.


    Standing at his spot by the entrance, John instructed one of his men and said, “Bring this person to me.


    I’d like to have a word with him in private.” As soon as the person was taken out of the warehouse,


    John was instantly reminded of the time that Sophia came here.
