Chapter 199

Ben Hawk made the ninth call, and there was still no one who would help him. There suddenly came the crisp sound of high heels from the hallway. A slender young woman appeared at the door of his room.

Ben Hawk looked up and stared at her in amazement. With a sexy low-cut black dress and flaxen long curls, she looked stunningly beautiful. Every man would be instantly attracted when they saw her.

“Who are you?” Ben Hawk hadn’t seen her before. Was she in the wrong room?

Yolanda slightly held her chin up and looked him over from head to toe with indifferent eyes. She went to his bed graciously and said condescendingly, “You don’t need to know who I am. All you need to know is that I’m Allen Charles’s ex-girlfriend.”

Ben Hawk frowned at Yolanda’s tone. He didn’t like her, though she was a beautiful woman. But her identity intrigued him greatly.

He looked up at her with a frivolous smile, pretending to be indifferent, “So what? Does this have anything to do with me?”

Yolanda smiled quietly, “Is that so? We’re Allen and Joey’s exes. Don’t you think there’s room for us to cooperate?”

“Cooperate?” Ben Hawk raised his eyebrows, “What do you mean?”

“I’ve looked into your background. You’re talented and ambitious, though you come from the countryside. Most importantly, you’re selfish and smart.

So you know what I mean. Don’t tell me you have no feelings for your ex-girlfriend Joey, because it will only make you a hypocrite. I don’t like to cooperate with hypocrites.”

Ben Hawk thought for a moment and shrugged, “Since you put it so bluntly, I have nothing to be afraid of. Why don’t you tell me what you’re going after? I’ll think about it when you’re finished.”

“Really? You don’t seem very interested. All right, before we start talking about cooperation, I’ll show you something that you’d be very interested in.”

She opened her designer bag and took a stack of papers out of it. She handed them to Ben Hawk, “Do you remember those three gangsters who beat you up so hard that you ended up in the hospital? Here are their profiles. They all work for a well-known gangster in the neighborhood named Crazy Eyes who works for Shawn, a big shot in the city.”

Ben Hawk was confused. Even the police hadn’t caught the three stoned gangsters who had bashed him up, and finally decided to drop the case.

The woman in front of him had made a thorough investigation on them. He was very impressed yet a little intimidated.

“What are you driving at? Who is Crazy Eyes? Who is Shawn? I’ve never met them, never even heard of them.”

He had neither borrowed any money from loan shark nor offended any important figures. He certainly hadn’t messed up with either of them.

Yolanda looked at him with a faint smile, “I’ve checked it out. Fiona went to see you at the Phoenix Hotel very shortly after he had arrived in China.

When you two left the hotel, Fiona had a long chat with Joey in a café nearby. I don’t know what has been going on with you three, but one thing is certain. Fiona hooked up with the powerful and dangerous Shawn the very night. You were nearly beaten to death by his men in the next day. I think any sensible man could see the connection.”

Ben Hawk was furious when he instantly realized what had really been going on. His eyes were red and revengeful. He ground his teeth, “I’ve never expected her to be so wicked and cruel. She hated me so much that she tried to kill me...”

He had assumed that it was just an incident, because he, from what he had known of Joey, believed that she wasn’t bold enough to hurt him. He hadn’t even doubted her before he was told the truth by Yolanda.

Yolanda smiled with satisfaction when she saw how furious Ben Hawk had become. She decided to strike the iron while it was hot, “What do you think of our cooperation now?”

Ben Hawk looked at her with red eyes, “Tel me, what is your plan? I’ll fight to the end.”

“Great!”

Yolanda smiled. It was the smile of triumph. She leaned over to him and whispered her plan in his ears.
