Chapter 1682
After pondering for a while, I turned to Tobias, narrowed my eyes and asked, "Are you going to leave Irvin alone in Mesville after I sign the contract?”
Hearing this, Tobias nced at me and squinted. "Look at you, what are you talking about? I''m here taking the risk of offending Mr. Roberts. This
shows my sincerity. What you said really makes me sad."
He pretended to be dejected and lowered his head. He pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. He looked as if he had really suffered a lot.
This was not a lie. The bigger my stomach got, the more Hendrix didn''t want me to meddle in the affairs of the outside world. This time he came to
see me, so he should have avoided Hendrix''s eyes and ears. However, he never thought about Hendrix''s good intentions and concern for pregnant
women. He was not afraid that I would be stimted. Although I was very grateful, I saw clearly that in the eyes of Tobias, his priority was always his
family''s interests. If his desired terms weren''t there, he would have given up on Irvin''s affair.
I thought for a while and pushed the phone to him and responded lightly, "I believe in you, but after searching for more than half a year, you still can’t
find any trace of Irvin. I''m really suspicious of your men’s abilities. Let me reconsider our cooperation..."
Tobias raised his eyes and scrutinized me. "You want toe break your promise?”
I shrugged. “All''s fair in war. Being careful in business is safer for both sides."N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
He sneered and his eyes were as cold as ice. "I thought Hendrix was cunning. I didn''t expect you to be more cunning than him. You have agreed to
my terms and dyed them for half a year. Now. you want to threaten me and let me further expand my manpower to find him?”
He was right. That was my purpose.
I smiled and pretended to be innocent. "If you could do that, I would be oh-so grateful."
Tobias stopped talking. He sat up slowly and leaned against the chair behind him. He sized me up as if he was considering my proposal
After a long time, he suddenly burst outughing. “Alright, I will make an exception for you, but...”
After a pause;he stretched out his
hand and knocked on the table with

People like him who had survived various fights were naturally experts in threatening.
I clenched my fists under the table and tried to keep calm. I forced a smile and answered calmly, "Of course.”
Tobias looked at me impatiently for
a few seconds. Then, he suddenly”

As soon as they left. Emma began to gossip. "Who is he?”
"Just an idler.” I didn''t want to talk too much about this, so I changed the subject. "Aaron is not around these days. What is he busy with?"
Speaking of Aaron, Emma was
dispirited. She! fiddled with the
