Upon receiving L’s phone call, udia’s emotions were unexpectedlyplex. She was both scared and excited for reasons she couldn’t quite exin.


    Deep down, she harbored a great deal of resentment. If L were still poor, she wouldn’t have felt this way.


    But now he was wealthy and powerful, with a strength that made her almost unable to believe it!


    She had heard from Kayden that even Isa had been forced to leave the family and go into hiding because of L’s power.


    So udia couldn’t help but feel extremely resentful when she thought about how this man had once belonged to her, how he used to be her obedient husband.


    Helping Kayden manipte the rtionship between L and Miranda, and all the acting she did, was also driven by a certain possessiveness as a woman.


    If it hadn’t gone too farter on, and if L hadn’t almost killed her in a fit of rage, udia would never have left Ednd.


    She might have caused trouble, trying every possible means to make L return to her side or to target him in some way.


    So now, when she heard L say he wanted to meet her, udia was both suspicious and faintly excited.


    “You… aren’t you here to settle the score with me?” udia asked cautiously.


    L sneered, “I’m not that boring! If I wanted to settle the score with you, you would have been dead when I came to your house in Edndst time!”


    “Ah? Really?” udia heard L say this and thought it made sense.


    In the next second, her eyes flickered a few times, and she asked in a soft tone, “So, L, what do you want from me?”


    Hearing udia’s tone, L couldn’t help but feel a hint of disgust, but he needed her right now, so he didn’t show any emotions and said calmly, “Let’s talk when we meet! After this is done, I can give you however much money you want. I guarantee that you’ll live the life you want for the rest of your life.”


    Upon hearing these words, udia’s eyes instantly brightened, and she pondered before asking again, “Are you really… not nning anything harmful to me?”


    L spoke coldly, “udia, in my eyes, you’re nothing but a insignificant person. Do you think I would bother dealing with you if you didn’t act cheap or ying tricks on me?”


    udia, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but grit her teeth.


    Feeling the condescending disdain in L’s tone, a sense of discontent surged within her.


    There was a time when this man held her in the palm of his hand and obeyed her every word. When they went bankrupt and divorced, he begged her desperately.


    Later on, he even lost all dignity and begged her for money to treat their daughter’s illness!


    udia always thought that in this lifetime, she should be the one standing at the top, looking down on this man.


    But now, in this man’s eyes, was she just an insignificant existence?


    This psychological disparity and imbnce deepened udia’s twisted and jealous mentality.


    But it was precisely this mentality that made her grit her teeth and agree, “Fine, I promise to meet you. When and where?”


    “Where are you now?” L asked in a deep voice.


    “I’m currently in Qusall!” udia replied.


    L understood in his heart upon hearing this!


    Qusall City was a third-tier city in Jueham State, about two hundred miles away from Ednd. It wasn’t too close, nor too far.


    udia probably thought that he wouldn’t chase after her, so she didn’t leave the state.


    Next, the two agreed to meet the next afternoon and the location, then hung up the phone.


    At this moment, Maisie and Adam beside her looked at udia with a mix of astonishment and suspicion.


    After arriving in Qusall, udia temporarily bought a house and lived with her parents.


    Although she had a few million in her hands before, it had almost been spent recklessly.


    It was still early, not yet time to sleep. The family of three sat in the living room watching TV.


    Just now, they were discussing how udia should find an honest man to marry and live a proper life.


    Now that they had left Ednd, where nobody knew them, it was like starting a new chapter in their lives.


    Although udia had been divorced twice, Adam and Maisie believed that with her current wealth and beauty, finding a man shouldn’t be a problem.


    “udia, whose call is it?” Adam asked.


    “Is it L’s?” Maisie added anxiously.


    They had just overheard fragments of their conversation.


    udia nodded, a yful expression on her face. “He said he wants to see me and talk about something. We agreed to meet tomorrow.”


    Upon hearing this, Adam and Maisie’s expressions changed.


    “udia, why is L still looking for you? Are you… are you going to meet him? Have you forgotten that he almost killed youst time?” Adam’s eyelid twitched as he spoke.


    “Yeah! Didn’t wee here from Ednd to avoid him? Why… why would you want to see him again?” Maisie said, her face filled with horror, then turned pale. “By the way, we changed our phone numbers. How did he contact you? Is he specifically looking to settle the score with you?”


    udia’s parents were truly frightened by L’s actionsst time. Hearing that he was looking for their daughter filled them with fear and unease.


    Upon hearing her parents’ concerns, udia’s expression changed several times. “It shouldn’t be possible. From what I know about L, since he didn’t kill mest time, he won’t do anything to me afterwards!”


    “But how can you be so sure? udia, you know how much L cares about his daughter. You almost harmed Nora twice. How could L not hate you? Maybest time he just had a moment of weakness, but upon reflection, he might decide to eliminate youpletely to prevent any future trouble,” Adam said with a serious expression.


    As Adam finished speaking, udia’s face became uncertain.


    Initially, when L came crawling back to her, she felt a mix of excitement and satisfaction. But now, it had turned into suspicion and unease.


    Could L have ill intentions towards her?


    “You two stay here and watch TV. I’ll go to my room for a while,” udia said, her mind in turmoil, filled with conflict and hesitation.


    “udia, you really need to think this through! If ites to it, we’ll move again and change our phone numbers. This time, we won’t tell anyone! We can’t y around with our lives!” Maisie reminded her.Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    udia reluctantly agreed and went back to her room.


    Just as she was lost in her thoughts, specting about various possibilities, another call came in.


    udia nced at it.


    It was from Kayden!
