Chapter 829
Bogus Billionaire
Yvonne sat on the riverbank with a cup of coffee in hand.
She checked the time, and when the minute hand struck 12 oâclock, she raised her head just in time to see a tall and muscular man sit down opposite her.
He seemed rather brutish and gave out some kind of scent. His hair was a mess, making him look as though he hadnât showered in ages.
What was worse was that he had the audacity to pick at his toes right before Yvonne.
She wouldnât have been here if it werenât for â¦
Yvonne swallowed her disgust when she remembered what she was here for. Still, her brows were tightly drawn together.
She took out a stack of photos and handed it to the man, whose eyes lit up almost immediately when he saw them.
He looked just like a predator who had just found its prey. There was even a strange and ominous light in his eyes.
Judging from his reaction, Yvonne was sure that what she had in mind would go according to plan.
âYouâll be handsomely rewarded once you get rid of the woman in these pictures.â She spoke to him in Sarcozian.
Yvonne learned the language back when she had furthered her studies in Macldo. Although her score for the language test hadnât been that good, her grasp of the language was sufficient for her to communicate with others.
The man didnât seem to hear what she had said just now. He simply shuffled the pictures and looked at them carefully. The desire in his eyes said it all.
A shiver ran down Yvonneâs spiné when she saw the look in his eyes.
The sudden fear that gripped her heart vanished in an instant when it occurred to her that he was going to get rid of Caroline soon.
âThat isnât a problem,â said the man, the look of lust now gone from his eyes.
He licked his lips and asked, âBut where am I supposed to find her?â
âDonât worry about that,â said Yvonne.
âIâll contact you when itâs time.â
That seemed to upset the man a little as he said, âIâll have to wait? Fine then.â
Standing up, he told her, âIâll be waiting for you then. If you donât contact meâ¦â
His voice trailed off as he eyed her up and down with the ominous gaze he wore when he looked at Carolineâs pictures just now. âIâll have a taste of you instead.â
Yvonne felt her hair stand on end. Only after he left did she stop trembling. How disgusting!
It was all Carolineâs fault that Yvonne had had to meet up with that man!
Yvonne had done some research beforehand. That man was a notorious criminal in Macldo known for raping women. He had been jailed plenty of times before, and there were even rumors saying that he was a psychopath.
He enjoyed torturing women, and almost all of his victims suffered the horrible fate of being paralyzed for the rest of their lives.
Regardless of his sins, he was the son of a wealthy businessman who would hire the best lawyers to lighten his sentence. In the end, he only needed to serve his sentence of being jailed for several years.
Besides, the money his family gave to compensate the families of the victims was sufficient enough to stop them from going against him.
These were things of the past, though. Ever since he had almost strangled a woman to death last time, his family had spent a fortune to keep him alive.
He had stayed in jail for ten whole years, and when he was freed after that, lots of things had changed.
His family had gone bankrupt a long time ago, and his parents had passed away. His two younger brothers had moved out when they had heard that he was done serving his sentence.
To put things simply, he had no one to rely on since then. He couldnât even fill his stomach, so he had laid low for quite some time.
Needless to say, he couldnât refuse what Yvonne was offering to him on a silver platter.
