He looked back at me and said, "I'm really grateful that you helped me last time. If you have anyquestions now, ask me quickly. I will tell you everything I know. After that, we will have nothing to dowith each other again in the future."
I froze for a moment. I did not understand what he meant. When I saw that he was looking at meimpatiently with a frown, I could not help but think that I was too naive in the past.
After remaining silent for a moment, I said, "What are you doing in Asherton now? Do you know thatKaleb is dead?"
He pursed his lips and said, "I already heard about what happened to Mr. Becker. You saw what I'mdoing in Asherton just now. It's the same as what Tiago does."
I frowned and said, "But, you know that this is against the law!"
He answered with a mumble and said nonchalantly, "I know, but humans are willing to die formoney, just like how birds will for food. It's not easy for foreigners like us to make a living inAsherton. We all need money to survive."
For a moment I was speechless upon hearing his words. I was unable to refute what he said. It wasnot easy for everyone to make a living. After all, we all needed money to survive.
"Is it really like what they said, as long as you have money, you are willing to do anything, even kill?"I opened my mouth, not knowing how to ask these questions.
He couldn't help but frown. Obviously, he had little regard for my question. After a moment ofsilence, he said, "Go home. It's not safe here."
I wanted to continue asking, but he had already left.
If Wendy's words were true, then Sebastian's gang was really involved in this underground trade. Icouldn't imagine how many lives were lost because of them.
I was a little conflicted and didn't know what to do. If I continued to pursue this matter, I was afraidthat I would not be able to accept it in the end. In fact, I was also involved in this. There would be nosupply if there is no demand. My daughter needed to live, so I brought Abby back from the village.
Just like how Wendy's father wanted her to live. That was why he didn't hesitate to do anything to ahealthy child. No one was wrong, but in this case, he really had the blood of an innocent child on hishands!
I couldn't solve these problems by myself. So, I called Hendrix in the car. He only answered thephone after it rang a few times. He asked in a very clear tone, "What is it?"
Hendrix was still angry with me because of the incident. I sighed helplessly and said, "Where areyou? I miss you, where are you now?"novelbin
He seemed to be a little surprised when he heard my words, "I'll see you at home," he said.
Then he hung up the phone. I was stunned when I realized that he had hung up on me. How couldhe just hang up like this?
I put down my phone and headed back to the villa. Just as Hendrix said on the phone, he wassitting in the living room. It seemed that he had just returned home as well. His dark eyes slightlyfroze when he saw me.
Then he pursed his lips and stared at me. He looked like a pouting child when he asked, "Why didyou call me?"
He was obviously still angry with me. I opened my mouth slightly, walked to his side and said, "I metup with Sebastian when I was in Jarold City. I think you probably already knew that. I found Abby
through the contact that Sebastian gave me. Hendrix, I really didn't mean to hide this from you. I justdidn't want you to overthink, so I didn't tell you all these."
