Noah jumped and followed Serena into the store.
He knew how to behave himself after falling into Serena’s hands. She would beat him into a pulp if she did not get what she wanted.
Back in the store, he moved a stool for Serena and poured water for her to drink.
“Talk. Why did they ask you to follow me? It’s fine if you don’t tell me. You know my identity now. As long as I give the command, I’ll soon be able to find out your plan.
“But if you tell me, I’ll give you money to take a cab home.”
Noah was speechless. Did he need her to pay for his cab fare?
“Are you going to talk or not?”
Serena’s hands clenched into fists.
It was clear what she meant.
“Don’t you dare… I–I’ll talk. Let’s talk nicely, okay? They told me to follow you and secretly take pictures of you to show to Harriet so she can imitate your words and actions.”
Serena’s beautiful eyes flashed.
Jasmine and Mrs. Lane exchanged glances.
The people present here were not fools. With Noah’s words, they all guessed what the Hunt family was planning.
“And” Coronity asked indifferently
Noah refused to say more and insisted that that was all he knew.
“I’m the youngest, so they never rope me in when they discuss their plans. They only tell me a small bit when they want to use me. I really don’t know anything else.”
Serena did not force him to talk.
She handed his phone to him.
Noah thought that she was going to return his phone and hastily took it. Just as he was about to thank her, she said, “Delete all the photos you took!”
Noah was speechless.
“Make sure you delete all of them. If you don’t, I’ll smash your phone, take out your phone card and throw it into the large river up ahead.”
Noah quickly said, “I’ll delete them. I’ll delete everything.”
He was really unlucky.
He was discovered the first time he was sent out to do detective work.
Noah cussed Serena out in his heart. He always made a misstep every time he targeted her.
Under Serena’s watchful eyes, he unlocked the phone and handed it back to her. He did not dare say anything and watched as she deleted all of the photos he took.
She even opened up his WhatsApp to check his chat with John and the others. They talked about how to retaliate against her, but Noah had not sent any photos. He must not have had time to send them after secretly taking the photos.
After making sure that all the photos were deleted, Serena returned the phone to him and warned him, “If this happens again, I’ll hand you over to Mr. York to deal with. His methods are much more ruthless than mine.
“He won’t kill you, but he can make your life a living hell.”
Noah’s face went as white as a sheet.
Serena was already terrifying, let alone Mr. York.
“I swear, I won’t do such things anymore. I won’t do it no matter what benefits they give me.”
Noah fell into Serena’s hands twice without getting any benefits. He hated Serena, but he could not get rid of her. He really was unlucky.
It would turn out better if he was sent to stalk and take pictures of Liberty instead.
However, Liberty was not as valuable as Serena in the eyes of Old Mr. Hunt and the others.
One was a pitiful woman who divorced and lived alone with a child, whereas the other was the eldest missus of the York family, the richest family in the city. Even a three–year–old would know who was more valuable.
“Get out!”
Noah stammered, “My fare…”
As soon as Serena glared, Noah scampered out.
She went back on her word!
She tricked him!
How could he have a cousin like Serena?
Noah scolded Serena all the way back to John’s rented house.
As for John’s luxury car, he could not drive it back because all four tires were slashed. He could only let John think of a way himself. Fortunately, he brought back the car keys.
When John found out that his little cousin not only failed and was discovered, but also left his car in front of Serena’s shop, he was furious.
He kicked Noah and yelled, “Even if you got scared and ran away, you should have run away with the car! How could you just come back with the car keys without the car?!”
“I–I couldn’t drive it back, John.”
Noah was kicked and did not dare fight back. He said timidly, “Your tires were slashed by Serena. I wanted to stop her, but she was too quick. I couldn’t stop her…”
John looked like he was in pain. “She slashed my tires? How many?”
Noah raised four fingers.
“It cost so much money to change just one tire, but she slashed all four of them?!”
John was furious!
“Noah, you didn’t tell her our plan, did you?” John quickly asked his younger cousin when he was reminded of their plan.
Noah said, “I didn’t.”
He indeed did not explicitly tell her everyone’s plan. He just told her his purpose of secretly taking pictures of her.
John breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Only we need to know about that plan. Don’t tell anyone about it. If Serena and her husband find out, they’ll be on the lookout, and it’ll be impossible to implement the plan.”
Noah nodded repeatedly. “I know that, John. Don’t worry, I didn’t tell her.”
He really did not tell Serena.
“What about my car?”
John’s heart broke for his car.
He had to spend a lot of money replacing all four tires.
If it were in the past, he would not care about that amount of money. Now that he had lost his job that paid a million a year, although his life was not that affected since he had savings, he was more frugal now than before.
He did not want to spend money before he found a new job.
Furthermore, the money his family spent also came out of his pocket. He was supporting his wife, but also his parents. Furthermore, his wife just got pregnant.
He sent his wife back to her maiden home during her pregnancy so that these vexing matters did not affect her mood.
That was the reason Serena had not seen her.
“Serena Hunt!”
