"Yes, yes. It's me." The caretaker grinned.
"What's your name?" asked the maid.
The caretaker scratched the back of her head and awkwardly replied, "My name sounds
plain, and it's not very catchy. Just call me Sura."
Her code name was Surabaya, which sounded nice. However, there was no way she could
tell the maid that her name was Surabaya in such a situation.
"Okay, Sura. The luggage is heavy. Come on. Let's put it on the bed first. I'll clear up the
space in the wardrobe for you later," said the maid. The caretaker could help her to lighten
the burden of taking care of Leia without encroaching on her interests.
Sura replied cheerfully, "It's okay... You can use the wardrobe. I didn't bring many clothes
with me. I only have three sets of clothes. I'll just leave them in the luggage bag. The
luggage bag won't take up much space even if I place it on my bed."
"Why do you need to put it on the bed when there's a wardrobe? This side of the wardrobe
is yours," said the maid. She did not have many things either. Hence, she quickly moved
her clothes to the other side of the wardrobe, freeing up some space for Sura.
"Alright. Thank you," Sura let out a sigh of relief when she finally moved into Leia's
apartment.
It was not easy to fool Leia.
If it were not for Old Mrs. Norman, she would not have been able to stay here.
It would not be easy for the organization to get someone else to keep an eye on Leia
either.
After settling Leia, Rain's surveillance team discovered that Mandy bought a last-minute
plane ticket. She was getting ready to escape. They intercepted her when she was on the
way to the airport.
Mandy had her eyes covered and her mouth taped shut with duct tape as she was forcibly
taken into another vehicle.
She had no idea how long the car had driven before it finally came to a halt.
Mandy was pulled out by someone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe stumbled along the way, but the person did not let her fall.
Mandy was eventually thrown onto a couch.
Mandy's hands were still tied, and her eyes were blindfolded.
Rain looked at the frightened woman in front of her who was about to get up. She wanted
to escape.
Was she trying to escape with her eyes covered? Mandy was not giving anyone peace of
mind. Rain made a gesture to her subordinate beside her, indicating that he should tie
Mandy's legs.
The man nodded and picked up a restraining strap. Then, he tied it around Mandy's legs.
"Ugh! Ugh!" Mandy's fear increased by tons as she felt her legs being tied.
Who would want to kidnap her?
Was it Matysh's men? It was impossible! Matysh was currently at the police station. How
could he make such arrangements?!
Was it the criminal organization that worked with Matysh?
Mandy also thought that it was unlikely. Matysh had been arrested. Those people should
be panicking now. Would they make a big fuss by kidnapping her?
Once Mandy was tied up, Rain tore off the tape covering her mouth.
"Who are you?" Mandy immediately asked when she knew she could speak now. Her head
turned around in confusion as she did not know which direction her kidnapper stood.
Rain remained silent.
Mandy pleaded, "Let me go. Don't hurt me. I have money, lots of money. I can give it all to
you. Just let me live."
She knew that it was only a matter of time before Maytsh was forced to expose her.
Mandy could still live a good life abroad if she escaped now. Her life would be ruined if she
did not escape.
If she was charged with assault for hurting Mr. and Mrs. Norman, she would be in deep
trouble.
"Ms. Sanders, where did your money come from?" Rain muttered each word slowly. She
took a recording pen out and pressed the record button.
Mandy was surprised to hear a woman's voice.
A woman?
She remembered that there was no woman in the criminal organization.
Moreover, this calm and composed voice sounded like it belonged to someone who was
accustomed to such interrogations.
She did not sound like the wife of a mafia boss.
"I earned it! We're both women. Why are you making things difficult for me? We can work
out a deal for both of us as long as you're willing to let me go,” said Mandy. Money was
freedom to her, and she chose it over losing her freedom.
She would gladly give all her money to this woman and then board a plane to go abroad.
Mandy had good looks. She could still flirt with men to live a comfortable life abroad.
"How?" asked Rain as she guided Mandy step by step to give her the answers she wanted.
Luke was running out of patience. He did not want to wait for Matysh to slowly reveal
Mandy's and Leia's involvement.
Was it not easier to catch Mandy and expose Leia?
Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Norman were tired of being cooped up in the hospital's VIP ward.
They would only be safe when Leia was arrested.
After all, Leia had so many tricks up her sleeve. Luke even suspected that it was Leia who
instigated the acid attack on Luca.
Mandy trembled. It seemed like she was being forced to tell the truth.
However, she would lose her freedom if she told the truth!
Mandy made up her mind not to say anything. "How did I earn it? I'm a woman. I have the
looks. I earned it with my beauty. It may not be ethical, but it's still money. My way of
making money doesn't bother you, right?" asked Mandy.
Rain sneered as she thought that Mandy was quite good at changing the topic of the
conversation.
Mandy heard her and asked tentatively, "Did I unintentionally steal your business?"
Before she could finish her sentence, Rain slapped her in the face!
"Who do you think you are?!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was a powerful smack, leaving a clear five-finger mark on Mandy's fair face. She did not
expect this woman to lay a finger on her!
Mandy could feel the metallic tang of blood filling her mouth. She feared that she might be
bleeding!
She could not help but feel afraid.
She had initially thought that the woman was just trying to scare her, but she did not
expect her to be so ruthless!
"I-I was wrong!" Mandy pleaded. She was worried that another slap would disfigure her.
Rain remained silent.
Mandy could not make up her mind. Therefore, she asked again, "Did I unintentionally ruin
your relationship?"
Other than Matysh, she had entertained a few other men when she returned to the
country.
Yet, Mandy had no feelings for these men. She only wanted to make as much money as
possible in one night.
However, these housewives could not tolerate their husbands going out flirting with other
women. Thus, Mandy wondered if this woman could be one of those men's wives.
Although the woman's voice sounded youthful, voices were all laced with deceit. A
youthful voice did not mean it was a young woman's voice.
Rain did not say a word.
Mandy had no choice but to apologize, "I just wanted to make some money. I had no
intention of ruining anyone's family. And those men, I was only with them for one night. I
have no intention of ruining anyone's relationship!"
Apart from Matysh, the other men were like daily disposable items to Mandy.
Matysh was handsome, and he was wealthy. That was why Mandy stayed by his side every
day, trying to seduce him.
Rain, who was also a woman, thought what Mandy did was despicable!
Rain initially believed that she was open-minded enough. She would not be too harsh to
other women either. However, when she heard Mandy's confession, a thought came into
her mind. This woman was truly something else! She was willing to sell her soul for money.
