Chapter 444: Chapter 445

Chapter 445 I Hope You Can Join Us Gerald’s destination was a neighborhood. He was standing at its gate.

A few minutes later, he saw a woman in a red dress slowly walking out of the neighborhood.

Everyone was attracted to her when she passed by them. The guards at the gate all looked at her.

She walked to the gate and opened it. “Come in!”

Gerald could see the excitement in her eyes. It looked like she had decided that she’d do everything to get him today.

“Damn it!” Gerald cursed in his heart. “I hope I won’t fall into her trap today.”

He coughed and walked into the neighborhood. As soon as Gerald entered, Red Rose directly leaned on him and held his arm tightly.

He felt something very soft and warm against his arm.

The guards got jealous when they saw the scene.

Gerald freed his hand and said, “Behave yourself. Where are they?

“Humph, stop it. Don’t you want to do something with me?” Red Rose asked in a sweet voice.

The guards at the gate were almost turned on when they heard that.

Gerald frowned.

If it was other women who seduced him like this, Gerald would have sex with them. But he didn’t dare to sleep with Red Rose.

He was clear that she was scheming and cunning. Gerald really couldn’t see through her.

Although Red Rose seemed to be cooperating with Gerald, she still caught Ingrid and Daphne. Therefore, Gerald was afraid that Red Rose would poison him if he really had sex with her.

“I won’t do that,” Gerald replied.

“Liar,” Red Rose said. “Come with me. Listen. I’ll have you tonight.”

As they spoke, they walked to her villa. The guards looked at Gerald’s back in envy.

They soon walked into the villa. Gerald frowned. “I can only hear one person breathing inside it. Ingrid and Daphne aren’t in there.”

“You’re right. I know you. You wouldn’t talk to Ms. Shaffer if you knew they were not here. You could even attack Ms. Shaffer and me,” Red Rose said.

“We are partners.” Gerald looked at her. “If I find out that you really betrayed me, I won’t let go of you.”

“You’re no fun,” Red Rose curled her lips and said. “Don’t worry. They are safe now. Nobody will hurt them.”

As she spoke, she opened the door and walked in. Then she shouted, “Ms. Shaffer, Gerald is here.”

Gerald walked into the room and heard the sound of water in the kitchen. An old lady was washing the dishes. She put down the plate when she heard Red Rose’s voice. Then she wiped her hands with a towel and walked out of the kitchen slowly.

She looked like an ordinary old lady. But Gerald was on guard when seeing her. He looked at her carefully and felt she was dangerous.

After all, Ms. Shaffer could take Ingrid and Daphne to Atlanta easily when they were under heavy protection from the Dark Net in Washington. Gerald was very shocked when hearing about this.

Ms. Shaffer was also surveying Gerald. She smiled. “What a great young man! You reached the super level five years ago. You’ll be at least as powerful as Davis even if you can’t reach Blaine’s level in thirty years. But the war is going to start. What a pity.”

Gerald frowned.

Red Rose was not afraid that Gerald would attack them here. As a Watchman, he honored the rules, so he wouldn’t do anything bad to them in public. Otherwise, it’d get the attention of many people. That would run counter to the rules of Night Watch.

Red Rose smiled and said, “Gerald, this is Gilda Shaffer. You can call her Ms. Shaffer.”

After that, she closed the door and said, “Let’s take a seat first!”

Gerald looked at Gilda and asked calmly, “Where are they?”

“Just be patient, young man,” Gilda smiled and said. “The two girls are sweet and lovely. I won’t hurt them. They are safe now.

They are just being watched and didn’t get hurt. Let’s have a talk.”

Gerald looked gloomy, but he still walked to the sofa and sat down. He looked up at Gilda and asked, “So, what do you want?”

Gilda sighed and replied, “Well, I want to persuade you to join Blood Lotus. Because I see hope in you!”

Hearing this, Gerald sneered and said, “Do you think it is possible? People in Blood Lotus are just those people’s stooges.”

Gilda raised her eyes to look at Gerald. She said calmly, “Don’t rush into a decision. And you’d better watch your language.”

Gerald stared at Gilda and said, “If you just want to win me over, I’ll say no. Tell me where Daphne and Ingrid are. Otherwise, I’ll get back at you.”

After that, Gerald looked at Red Rose beside him and said coldly, “By the way, I’ve caught Franklin. I can kill him at any time.

You can leave Blood Lotus if you want.”

Red Rose was stunned and said, “Did you catch Franklin? Where did you catch him?”

“I went to Sin City and caught him there,” Gerald answered calmly.

Even Gilda was shocked. “So did you really go to Sin City?”

Gerald nodded and said, “Yes!”

Red Rose’s face lit up.

Gilda took a deep breath and said, “Gerald, you don’t have to reject me now. I came to talk to you today because I want you to join Blood Lotus. You can make the decision after I finish my words.”

Gilda sighed. “I’ll tell you the history of Night Watch and Blood Lotus first. When you dealt with Blood Lotus and other people, you might have heard many of them say that they just made different choices, right?”

Gerald was silent. He neither admitted nor denied that.

Gerald had heard many people in Sin City, including Dax, say that sentence before.

Gilda smiled and said, “Do you know what we were up against at that time? After they appeared, some people chose to hide and set up an organization called the Voyage. You should know about it. Some chose to submit. They’re the founders of Blood Lotus.

And some chose to fight back. They were Watchmen!”

Gerald frowned when hearing that.

Gilda smiled and rolled up her sleeve. Then Gerald saw a purple lotus. She looked at it and murmured, “Do you want to know what the purple lotus means?”
