Chapter 1045 A Hard p
Reuben widened his eyes. "Morris, do you mean it?”
Morris cidly said, "We have to avenge Gregory. After we kill Nathan and Penny, the only one left in the Cross family will be
their daughter, Queenie. We as distant rtives of the Cross n will im guardianship for Queenie. That way, the Cross
Group will be ours."
Upon hearing his brother''s plot, Reuben excitedly replied, "What a great n! It''s simple and effective."
Morris instructed, "I''ll leave this to you. But remember, it''s best for you to look for an outsider to kill Nathan and Penny. If the
public found out that we are the ones who killed the Cross couple, it''ll be difficult for us to secure Queenie''s guardianship."ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Reuben grinned. "Understood.”
Over at Cross Group, the employees were overjoyed when they heard that Q.Than had been approved by the FDA.
Furthermore, Penny had given everyone a three-day leave and a raise in return for their hard work.
As they had three days free, Nathan, Penny, Kylie, Queenie, Benson, and Leah all went for a trip.
Their destination was the West.
They took a flight to Johnstone City before driving to the tourist town of Honeyrock Valley.
It took them hours of driving through desertednds before reaching the town.
Honeyrock Valley was a scenic location, a paradise in the deste West.
There were many ancient infrastructures, including temples.
As Leah was a devout Buddhist, she would pray at every temple she came across. Hence, the group''s first destination upon
arriving at Honeyrock Valley was the temple.
Asmiling monk weed them when they entered.
“Are you here to pray?”
Leah answered, "Yes!"
The monk then swiftly offered Nathan and the rest three sticks of incense and asked them to light their incense.
Only then did Nathan and the rest notice the Buddha that was enshrined in this temple was Yab-yum.
The statue depicted a man and a woman hugging while barely clothed.
After they offered their incense, the monk asked with a smile, "Alright. Now that we''re done offering incense, it''ll be 300 for one
person and 1800 in total.”
Penny and her family widened their eyes, and Leah eximed, "Why is it so expensive? How can you charge 300 for one
incense stick? How can you possibly ask us for 1800 in total? You''re just robbing us!”
Upon hearing her words, the monk dropped his smile, and a ferocious expression appeared on his face. "The price for offering
your incense in Honeyrock Valley''s temple has always been the same. Why are you here if you don''t have enough money? Pay
now, and pay no less than what I''ve told you."
Once the monk finished speaking, over a dozen fierce-looking men appeared.
When Penny and her family saw them, their faces paled drastically.
Benson was an honest but cowardly man. He had heard that tourists were often cheated in small towns like these. Sometimes, if
the tourists resisted, they would be beaten to death.
He hurriedly whispered to the rest, "Let''s not insist on our ways. Just think of it this way: we''re paying for our safety.
Upon hearing his suggestion, Nathan smiled. "Alright, we''ll pay."
At that, Nathan took out his wallet.
Kylie was furious that the temple was cheating on the tourists. She took out her phone and took a photo of the temple''s interior,
nning to post it on social media to warn others againsting here in the future.
However, when the monk saw Kylie taking photos, he howled, "She took photos of our Buddha. This is disrespectful towards
Buddha. It''ll be a fine of 2000. The totales to 2800!"
Penny and Kylie were enraged and stunned by the monk''s statement.
