“I received a text message from Cormac after he left,” Boyce knew Cormac’s intention at that moment.
Cormac left indicated that he turned over the matter to Charles and he would not intervene in this.
However, it was only a cover for Cormac.
Charles did not even know that he had been manipulated until now.
Loredana quietly glanced at Cormac, and she thought that his mind was deep.
She felt scared about his deep mind. How could a man’s mind be torturous?
Cormac had manipulated the people, but they would not know about it.
“Is it possible that I still have to count the money for you when you sell me one day?” Loredana thought that it was possible, and she felt that her IQ was low in front of Cormac.
Cormac cuddled her tightly, “I won’t sell you.”
How could he sell her since he loved her so much?
“You no need to care who he is. Take the money and get out!” Lacey was fuming in anger and trembling.
However, the man in the leather jacket did not discontent with the money he had, and he continued to pull Lacey, “Lacey, the money is only enough for me to spend for a while, but you know how much I want.”
“I have no more money,” Lacey yelled at him.
Slap!
A slap caught Lacey’s face. The man in the leather jacket held the collar of Lacey’s clothes and threw her to the ground. He sat on her body and squeezed her neck, “You better behave yourself, or I’ll publicize your scandal and make you can’t even be a human being.”
“Your father forced me to do it,” Lacey grunted. She did not resist against him, and her hands clenched tightly on the ground. She knew that he would be more unscrupulous if she fought back.
“Hey, bitch!” The man in the leather jacket let go of her and put the money into his pocket. He looked at Lacey, who was getting up off the floor, and he warned, “You better behave yourself and get more money in this period. You suddenly closed the dress shop, and now even the income is gone. I tell you, Lacey. I don’t care whether you are going to sell your body or rob. You have to pay me twenty thousand yuan every month. I’ll flog you to death if one yuan is less!”
The man in the leather jacket talked tough to Lacey and left the room. He closed the door room with a bang.
Lacey sat on the floor and cried.
Loredana was in agony when she looked at Lacey in the video, “What can the video suggest to you?”
she wondered why Cormac would suspect Lacey.
“It showed that Lacey is not as innocent as you see. Nobody can maintain a pure heart when she is often being threatened and deprived of in her life. Do you know that Lacey gave money to the person I sent to give her money, who pretended as Charles’s man?”
Loredana asked, puzzled, “Why did she give money to him?”
“She doesn’t want Charles to know the existence of the man in the leather jacket. She also doesn’t want him to know that she has a relation with the man.”
She had kept secrets from Charles.
“Are you going to ask me why I suspect her?” Cormac put a strand of her hair up and played it between his fingers.
Loredana nodded honestly.
Cormac answered her, “I can’t be sure of her motive, but she has an ability.”
“What kind of ability?”
Cormac excluded the possibility that Sampson would be the one who did it. Sampson did not dare to appear in public, and he could not even enter or leave the hotel like other people. How could he check out the layout of the surveillance in the hotel?
However, Lacey could check out the surveillance layout of the hotel. She would not be suspected even if she often entered the hotel since she had a good relationship with Charles.
Cormac had confirmed the thought by watching the surveillance video at the hotel manager’s side.
Lacey often went to the hotel during the time they left White City.
Her purpose was clear.
Loredana found it incredible, and it was inconceivable that Lacey was the one who did this.
“Why would she do so?” Loredana could not understand.
Boyce narrowed his eyes and cold hummed, “She maybe has a psychological distortion. Anyway, I think we will be able to find out soon.”
Buzz…
Loredana Flores’ cell phone on the bedside table vibrated at the crack of dawn.
The lady could be seen being wrapped up and was sleeping deeply in the man’s arms on the large double bed roughly in the dim light. She was sleeping on her side with her head pillowed on his arms.
Her long black silky hair fell over the pillow.
Cormac Mendelsohn slept lightly, he opened his eyes slowly. He glanced around the room and eventually fixed his gaze at the vibrating mobile phone on the bedside table.
Loredana was awakened by the buzzing phone too. She wriggled herself as she felt unpleasant about the noise and her brows were firmly knitted in a frown.
Cormac hit the answer button to avoid awakening Loredana.
Cormac had no idea who was the one calling because the number was not saved.
As the call was got through, a male voice was heard over the phone.
“Are you still serious about treating me to a meal?”
Cormac pulled out his watch and looked at the time, it was now 5:10. Why did Charles White call Loredana at such an early hour?
And why did he mention that she will treat him to a meal?
Shouldn’t he check the time even if he was so eager to be treated?
“It seems like Mr. White is in the mood to have a meal,” Cormac said in a serious tone.
Charles did not expect that it was Cormac who answered the phone. He was shocked for a minute and then grinned. “After some thought, I would like to enjoy breakfast with Miss Flores this morning. May I talk to Miss Flores?”
Loredana was awakened once in the night by Cormac. In fact, she couldn’t sleep for a long time after seeing what happened to Lacey Ward, then she herself didn’t know when she fell asleep. She seemed to hear Cormac talking as she was half-awake with her head burrowed into his arms. She felt the warmth from his body as she was still drowsy, her voice was very deep, soft and a bit hoarse, “Who is it at such an early hour?”
Cormac was about to say no.
Charles heard a faint cry and his face twitched slightly. As he thought that Loredana and Cormac were not close to each other, who knew… They truly slept together just like a normal couple.
Charles was a bit upset.
“Good girl. It is just the China Mobile Customer Service who called,” Cormac gently stroked her back.
Charles was speechless.
Since when he became the mobile customer service?
“Toot Toot…”
As he was about to speak, but the phone was hung up.
Charles glanced at the hung-up phone in his hand. He wasn’t able to respond for a long time. He couldn’t believe that Cormac really hung up his phone.
He was such a narrow-minded man!
They were in the room.
Cormac placed his arm around her and caresses her back.
