Chapter: 1103
You think you can get your deposit back? No way!"
The call ended abruptly, leaving Hank seething with frustration.
"Damn it! What kind of organization is this? You must return my deposit if you can't complete the job. Holy shit!"
He erupted into curses, consumed by anger.
Hadley, secretly listening at the door, felt reassured. She believed Norah was strong and competent, and her objective now was to sustain their relationship.
In her eyes, Hank was a fool, known only for his tendency to intimidate those weaker than himself.
A sinister glint appeared in Hadley's eyes. She resolved to leave Hank and free herself from his influence.
Displeased with Hank's inefficiency, Iker summoned him for a discussion.
Iker said, "You are aware of our recent activities in Glophia. It will be significantly harder to execute them once Norah returns.
He looked towards Hank and added, “Over a month ago, you committed to kill Norah while she was in Silverdale. As the deadline for her exchange program approaches, when will you fulfill this assignment?"
Hank, breaking into a cold sweat, assuredly said, “I promise, I will find a way to kill her."
The Wilsons were a prominent family among the elite in Glophia, eagerly anticipating a press conference to formally introduce themselves to the high society, "I admire capable individuals. Norah is exceptionally talented, though she doesn't quite fit in with us."
He believed Norah must have managed her father's company in a way.
She demonstrated her management skills, regardless of her level of involvement.
Hank felt a deep sense of disappointment. Was his father suggesting he was incapable?
“Dad, don't worry. I will meet your expectations."
Back in his room, Hank was deep in thought. He had attempted to orchestrate a murder and arrange a car accident, yet somehow Norah always miraculously escaped harm.
With the underground organization canceling the cooperation, Hank was at a loss about what to do next.
Feeling upset, he encountered Hadley applying makeup at the dressing mirror. Overwhelmed by his emotions, he kicked her forcefully.
Hadley collapsed onto the floor. The spot where she had been kicked throbbed with intense pain, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She cautiously held her breath.
If Hank heard her cries of pain, he would torment her even more harshly.
Hadley's obedience satisfied Hank.
He observed Hadley, who seemed fragile and easily dominated, and it brought back memories of their past relationship.
