Chapter 886 Sally''s Visit (Part Two)


    "Who else can stop me? You or Derek?" Sally asked with a sneer. Resting her eyes on Mond, she


    remarked, "Your prime time is over. Don''t you think that you have changed a lot these years? You''ve


    lost much of your sharp edge already. I think the softening of your heart is evident in many things. For

    example, your generous thirty million dors'' donation to charity. But I suspect you thought it would


    remain secret, didn''t you?"


    Surprised that she had sniffed that out, Mond gave her a grave look, probing to see if she''d give away


    some helpful information. "It looks like you''re better informed than I imagined," he began with a little bit


    of ttery. "Tell me, how do you get to know all these?" he asked. What puzzled Mond most was that


    Sally didn''t have any friends. All the information that she seemed to have at her fingertips was sourced


    through spying on people through hired contracts. Considering that she was lonely and isted, he


    assumed that it must have cost her an arm and a leg. The bit he had learned about her spying on


    Lawrence and Mike through the Russian intelligence was particrly unsettling. For that reason, he''d


    have to y his cards close to his chest. Worse still, Mond was gutted by her needless murder of


    Sharon. From now onward, he''d need to tread cautiously with this woman.


    "Money has power, doesn''t it?" Sally asked in return. "We can do anything as long as we have money."


    Disagreeing, Mond shook his head. As far as he could tell, she wasn''t being honest. There were many


    things that she wanted to hide with that generalized answer.


    Being his old friend, Sally read what exactly was going through his mind. Money was a veneer behind


    which she had hoped to hide, but Mond was too smart for that. That wasn''t going to fool him so easily,


    she thought.


    All of a sudden, she changed the topic. ncing around, she asked, "Do you live alone in such a huge


    house?" she asked.


    "Why bother asking? You sat here waiting for me a long time. How could you not know?" Mond


    countered, focusing his expectant eyes on Sally. Expectantly he wanted for Sally to answer thisst


    question, but in her typical cop out, she again switched topic. Now, he realized that the woman wouldn''t


    provide any meaningful answer to his questions.


    "I saw a woman dressed like a servant. She left here an hour ago with a wicker shopping basket," she


    began in a calm tone.


    "If anything happens to her, I will not let you go," Mond threatened, without blinking. Of course, he knew


    there was no good reason why Sally would hurt her. But just in case she acted out impulse like she did


    most of the time, Mond would make her pay a heavy price for her sins. After Sharon''s death, he had


    resolved he would deal ruthlessly with her. It was high time someone gave this callous woman a taste


    of her own medicine.


    "Don''t worry. I will not kill her," Sally promised coolly as she stubbed out her cigar in the ashtray. Lifting


    her head to look at Mond, she continued, "I''ve sent someone to stalk her, but she will be back safely."


    Mond didn''t say a word.


    "But I am a little curious. You used to be so callous. You tried to hurt your half brother. Heck, you even


    killed your Grandpa," Sally took a dig at Mond, not afraid to get on his wrong side. "Howes you


    now even want to protect a mere maid?"


    But finally, Mond having had enough her blubber blew into a rage. Getting up, he charged at the


    irritating woman like a wounded lion. Violently, he grabbed her by the shoulders, jerking her out of the


    couch. He pushed her towards the door with such force that she crushed into a stool on her path. The


    gust of air that hit her as she flew lifted her dress, uncovering her up to the waist. Only the purple boy-


    shorts she wore underneath covered her backside as she copsed into a heap on the floor, screaming


    in terror. Once more, Mond picked her up with crude force and pulled her by the hand leading toward


    the door. ring at her, he roared, "Shut the fuck up and get out of here!"


    But recovering from the shock, she decided to put up a fight. "What if I don''t?" Sally challenged, her


    anger showing at the corners of her lips which twitched involuntarily. Thinking she might have


    something important to tell him, Mond let go of her hand. For a moment, they stood ring at each


    other with such viciousness you''d think Armageddon hade. But when no one moved after what


    seemed like an eternity, their tempers cooled, just enough for them to start talking again.


    "Can you swear that you had nothing to do with Gary''s death?" Sally began. But Mond, instead of


    answering shot back with another question. "Aren''t you afraid of death, Sally?" he asked through gritted


    teeth as he grabbed Sally''s arm again.


    Sally winced in pain as he tightened his grip on her hand. However, the pain on her wrist was sweet


    and pleasant. She somehow liked to be tormented by Mond, especially when he turned cruel and


    merciless to her.


    However, Mond ignored her painful expression and watched her, still waiting for a response. Time


    ticked by slowly as the two silently stood, sizing up each other.


    When Mond released Sally from his grip, he slowly turned and returned to his seat.


    "So what''s your business here?" he asked frankly. She couldn''t havee here without a good reason,


    he assumed.


    Remembering how awkwardly she had fallen, Sally instinctively pulled at her clothes, even though she


    was all covered up by now. She then sat back on the couch, at the same ce she had sat before hell


    broke lose.


    "Now that I''m back, I thought I should pay you a visit. You truly changed my life," she replied.


    "There is no need. And you should''ve done it earlier. I don''t think I''m the first person you''ve visited after


    "I did it out of respect," Sally returned. "I also heard that you have a beautiful daughter. I didn''t know


    you had a daughter."


    Mond switched his gaze back to Sally. With a hint of concern in his eyes, he said indifferently, "You


    have no business poking your nose into my family affairs. But you can give it a shot, if you have the


    nerve toy a hand on my family," Mond said nonchntly.


    "Don''t worry. I will not hurt your wife or your daughter," Sally reassured. Meeting his eyes again, she


    continued with hatred, "The only person I will and must get even with is your half brother. Sooner or


    him, Cherry''s children will be gone too."
