Chapter 2076
She knows. The hunched man was caught by surprise. "Are you Ms. Shae Davier-the woman who called mest night?"
Shae nodded. "You must be Death Reaper''s broker, Bobby, The Soul Escort."
Bobby chuckled. "Very well. Since you know me, you must be familiar with our rules as well."
"Only the rich can afford your services. You guys would do anything for money."
"No. You must be filthy rich to be able to afford us. The more influential the target, the higher the fee."
Shae took out a photograph of Penny. "What about her?"
Bobby took a good look at the photo and was subtly surprised by how beautiful Penny was. Shortly after, he gestured towards the door.
A man, clothed fully in ck, appeared by his side. He took the picture and left.
Shae knew that the man in ck had left to investigate Penny''s identity.
A whileter, he returned and whispered his findings to Bobby, who frowned andmented, "Penny''s the Chairman of Cross Group. Her husband, Nathan used to be the Commander-in-chief of the North Army. Under normal circumstances, we wouldn''t take this order.
"However, we all know that his authority has weakened considerably. Moreover, they''ve offended the Daviers. I doubt they willst long. On behalf of Death Reaper, I''d say we make an exception for you. Take it as a celebration of our meeting."
Shae grinned. "That''s awesome. Thanks Bobby!"
He added, "This mission is worth one billion. No qualms about it, right?"
One billion!
Shae held back her protest. She knew it was a small price to pay since it wasn''t going to be an easy job.
"One billion it is. But I have a request."
Bobby asked, "What?"
"Before you kill her, bring her to me. Alive. I have some questions for her."
He grimaced at her request.
"Any issues?"
"Capturing her alive is harder, but it''s nothing Death Reaper can''t aplish: You may leave now. need to finalize some ns. Meet me back here at sundown. We would have Penny captured by

then."
"Great. I look forward to it."
Back at Channing, Brimmotopia,
hundreds
of parent-child pairs wer
having the fun of their lives at the Tulip Elementary summer camp.
Penny and Kylie, along with their bodyguard, Ava, stood in a corner as they watched Queenie y happily with some of the other kids. Meanwhile, several men and women were having a stakeout on a rooftop hundreds of meters away from them, monitoring their activities.
The spy was a slender, pale-faced
man. He had been using binocrs to keep tabs on their movement. Beside him were hisrades, looking equally pale as if they were the walking dead.
They were the assassins from Death Reaper.
The pale-faced man was Mystique, Death Reaper''s number one assassin. He was also the one leading the mission to abduct Penny.
He had his eyes on their bodyguard, Ava. He warned the rest, "She''s a pro. We need a distraction."
