Chapter 392

Baldy didn’t want to eat the pill, but he had no choice.
The Glovers family’s men were watching him closely, and the nine mercenaries standing behind Felicia looked as if they wanted to pry his mouth open and make the decision for him.
Rather than letting others decide his fate, he might as well gamble on it himself.
He swallowed with difficulty.
Two minutes passed, and he didn’t feel any discomfort. His excitement grew! He had chosen the right pill!
This white pill was completely non–toxic!
“You said it yourself, Ms. Fuller. A bet’s a bet. Can you let me go now?”
Baldy wore an expression of joy, afraid that Felicia might change her mind.
Felicia simply gave a soft “mm” without any intention of stopping him.
Baldy quickly scrambled to his feet, ignoring everything else, and ran toward the gate, eager to escape before something happened.
With no one chasing him, he relaxed as he was about to leave the Glovers estate, and a malicious glint appeared in his eyes.
He would repay all the humiliation he had suffered today a hundred or a thousand times over! “Just you wait, bitch!” he muttered in his heart as he stepped through the Glover estate gates. But just as his feet left the estate, his stride faltered. A sharp, piercing pain shot through his chest, and he coughed up a mouthful of black blood!
The pill… was poison!
Realizing this, Baldy crashed to the ground, his eyelids heavy as if filled moments, he last saw Felicia’s emotionless face.

“You… You tricked me…”
“Betting means accepting the consequences,” she said lightly.
With the last matter finished, Felicia kept her promise and handed the five billion dollar reward to the nine mercenaries. How they divided the money was up to them.
After receiving the money, the nine mercenaries left contentedly.
The female mercenary, before leaving, winked at Felicia, her smile flirtatious and captivating.
“Miss–uh, I mean, boss–if you ever need help again, feel free to hire me. I may be
expensive, but I promise you won’t be disappointed.”
Felicia raised an eyebrow and replied, “Want to leave a contact?”
“Sure.”
With no paper or pen nearby, the female mercenary tore off a piece of her sleeve and, using lipstick, wrote a phone number on it before handing it to Felicia.
“We don’t have real names in our line of work, only codenames. I go by Scarlet.”
Scarlet?
True to her name, she was as brilliant and fiery as the red leaves in autumn, bright and full of life.
Felicia complimented her. “It suits you.”
Scarlet smiled even wider, and her impression of Felicia increased. She winked and said, “See you again, boss.”
After they left, Felicia casually saved Scarlet’s contact information on her phone.
Though she didn’t need it right now, having the contact was better than finding herself in need later.
She had originally planned to return to Khogend immediately, but after some thought, she decided to see Maurice first and have the twin venomous creatures removed.
But Maurice seemed to have anticipated her intention and avoided her.
She searched all over the Glovers estate but couldn’t find him. By the time night fell, she missed the last flight back to Khogend.
