Chapter 149
At the Maynard <b>residence</b>, Anthony had been anticipating his subordinates return for the entire night. He wasn’t anxious at first, but his anxiety grew the longer he waited for
them.
However, when no news came back when the clock struck midnight, he finally lost his cool
<b>He </b>called his men right away. <b>“</b>Go find <b>out </b>what’s going on over there! Why haven’t we received <b>any </b>updates? Does it take this long to deal with a high school student?
Before he ended his call, he heard a deafening noise from outside.
“Damn it!” Anthony hung up and went downstairs. “Who the heck is that in the middle of the night?”
Also startled by the noise, Heather followed him downstairs. She was shocked to <b>discover </b><b>a </b>huge crowd down stairs.
Equally dumbfounded, Anthony realized that they weren’t his men. He was no match if someone were to attack him now.
“Scott!” he thundered. “Take Heather away first”
Before Scott could respond<b>, </b>a crisp voice came from the door.
“No one is leaving tonight” The crowd dispersed, <b>and </b>a petite girl ambled in. She was dressed in a ck hoodie and a ck cap with the brim pressed low<b>, </b>making it <b>hard </b>for others to discern her features.
Heather’s expression instantly darkened<b>. </b><b>She </b>wasn’t dead! Having never met Lily, Anthony’s cowled at her for a long time.
“Who are you? Why are you causing a scene at my house?”
He wasn’t a fool, Judging by the drastic difference in numbers now, he couldn’t guarantee their escape. The most he could do was to stall <b>and </b>wait for his men to return.
Lily smirked. “Don’t you know who I am?”N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
Scrutinizing her face, Anthony said, “Stop beating around the bush. What are you here for?”
“To end your life!” Lily met his <b>eyes</b>, a malicious glint flickering in her eyes.
Anthony’s expression hardened. “Many people have said that, but none have done it. What makes you think you’re capable of that?”
He chanced a nce at the people behind Lily. “They can’t eveny a finger on me.”
“<b>You’re </b>mistaken. I don’t need them to kill you. I can tackle you myself,” Lily said, a smirk ying <b>on </b>her lips.
Anthony roared withughter. “I’ve never heard such a ridiculous joke. You want to kill me on your own?”
Wary of the people behind her, he figured he might struggle to fend them off. But her alone…Anthony sneered at her brazenness.
Lily shot <b>a </b>nce at him. “I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Lily.”
“What?” Anthony’s expression changed instantly. If Lily was standing before him, that meant all the men he had dispatched were dead
Lily saw through him in a heartbeat. “You’re right. All your men are dead.”
With both her hands in her pockets, she continued nonchntly, “Everyone rted to you in Lagersfield is dead. Only those in this house remain, and I’vee to deal with you lot personally.”
“Who exactly are you?” Anthony gritted out.
