Chapter 44 - Surrounded
Chapter 44 Surrounded
The reason Jane wanted to use Susan and Flint was mainly that she had thought about her situation. Her reasons to take revenge on Cole probably would not be enough for Charles Yeager.
However, she did not expect Charles Yeager to not care about it at all and trust her wholeheartedly.
Jane got even happier.
As long as she acted innocent in front of Charles, what could she not get?

The next day.
At seven in the morning, Cole woke up.
A message had appeared in his mailbox.
“Cole Stone, wait for death.”
It was from Jane.
After seeing it, Cole deleted it without changing his expression.
He could not get disgusted so early in the morning.
Then, he started to fiddle with his own matters.
He was quite lucky.
Even though he had cut off his nutritional meals and rejected the orders of a few customers, he still received work.
Three clients’ online fitness guidance!
Hence, he started to tailor a fitness plan for those clients according to the information he had taken down.
When he had time later, he would go to the clients’ houses to check on their health and see if anything needed to be improved…

While Cole was busy, Chris Hayes found an old person.
Simone Owens!
Other than the unknown powerhouse hidden in the Hayes and the personal guard of the family’s head, Simone Owens was the strongest person in the Hayes family.
Moreover, Simone was one of the two guardians of the Hayes family. She was powerful and had superb internal strength.
Every year, the Hayes had to provide these guardians with a large amount of wealth, and this price was just to let them take action once in a crisis.
If the family wanted the guardians to make a move, they would have to pay another price, and the other party might not even agree.
This was also why Chris wanted to find Steve to impress Mr. Yves.
If it were just him, Mr. Yves might have not agreed to it.
However, now that he had no other choice, Chris could only come over and beg Mrs. Simone to help him.
Knock knock!
“Mrs. Simone, I’m Chris. I have something to discuss with you,” Chris respectfully said outside the door.
He was a little nervous.
“Come in!” A hoarse voice came from inside.
Chris pushed open the door. An old woman in black was sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking at the scenery outside the French window. Her eyes seemed to have lost their focus and were a little dazed.
After walking into the room, Chris did not dare to waste his breath. He put down the good tea he had bought with him and respectfully said in a low voice, “Mrs. Simone, I would like to invite you to make a move.”
“What’s the reason?”
Simone calmly asked.
“I want to deal with Cara Williams’s fiancé.” Chris gritted his teeth.
Simone did not even turn around. “Have you confirmed it?”
“I’m not sure.”
Chris took a deep breath and continued, “But if we make the right bet, we can grab Cara Williams’s lifeline and threaten her.”
A hint of mockery appeared in Simone’s voice. “You dare to come when you’re not sure? Aren’t you too rude?”
Silence!
A powerful aura erupted from her body, forcing Chris to stagger back.
“I…”
Chris took a deep breath and lowered his head even more. “If I’m wrong, I’m willing to accept the punishment. Mrs. Simone, please agree to my request. This is a small token of my appreciation.”
He then placed a bag of unknown items on the ground and pushed it toward Simone.
To Chris, there was no situation more difficult than this.
He only realized later that him being humiliated by Cara Williams meant that his family had abandoned him.
If he could not find an opportunity to prove himself, he would be marginalized for the rest of his life.
However, Chris could not accept this.
He was unwilling!
Only after Chris pushed the bag did Simone turn around and look at the bag.
Chris was silent.
A long pause ensued.
“Let’s go. We’ll make a move tonight. If it weren’t for him, I would have crippled one of your legs,” Simone calmly said.
Chris was shocked, but he had no choice. He gritted his teeth and said, “Okay.”
In his heart, however, he had already started to crazily pray.
That useless person was wearing the ring of the head of the Williams family. He has to be Cara Williams’s fiancé!

In the afternoon, Cole left his house.
The needs of his three clients made him busy until 10:30 pm. Only after this could he go home.
TO
When he came out of the subway station, the alley was already a little empty.
This was the only way home.
It was a little remote.
The usual Cole would not have thought that there was any problem with this.
However, right now, Cole’s expression darkened.
Not far in front of him, a few people were walking toward him.
The two people in the lead were a man and a woman.
The man was handsome and unrestrained, wearing an unknown brand of shirt. The shirt’s material was extremely good, and it obviously looked expensive.
The woman held the man’s arm and coldly looked at him.
Charles Yeager and Jane Smith.
Behind them was a middle-aged man dressed in a jacket with a straight collar.
The middle-aged man looked ordinary and expressionless, but Cole could feel a hint of danger from him.
Hugh Williams, who was standing in the dark, had a change in expression when he saw Charles Yeager and the middle-aged man.
How is that possible?
Why are they here to target Cole?
Cole did not plan to fight them to the death.
Seeing that the situation was not right, he was already planning to turn around.
However, just as he turned around, six burly men blocked his path.
“Why are you in such a hurry to leave?”
At this moment, Jane said, “Do you usually take a detour when you take this route home?”
“What do you want?”
Cole looked at Jane with a gloomy expression.
If he did not pay the price of blood today, he would probably not be able to leave.
“What are you doing?” Jane sneered and looked at Cole with disdain. “Shouldn’t I be asking you? You’ve been pestering my family and even tortured my brother and mother. Isn’t it because you want something?”
Cole sneered. “They deserved it.” “They’re innocent.” Jane got a little angry and heartbroken. “You’re really a bastard. We broke up. It’s fine if you pester me, but you want to pester my family too. They didn’t do anything wrong!” Cole sarcastically smiled. “Jane, your acting skills are getting better and better. You’ve put in a lot of effort to lie to this Mr. Yeager beside you.” “What did you say?”
Jane’s expression darkened.
Is Cole planning to expose me?
“Nothing.” Cole smiled and turned to look at Charles Yeager. “Mr. Yeager, I think you’re not a fool. Why don’t you understand that Jane has ill intentions?”
“Ill intentions?”
At this moment, Charles Yeager spoke with a mocking expression. “Just based on that mouth of yours, I know that your ability to distort the truth is definitely not weak.”
Seeing this, Jane immediately became smug.
She had successfully coaxed Charles Yeager.
When Cole heard this, he revealed a mocking expression. “Mr. Yeager, only you treat this wh*re as a treasure. Oh right! She still has James Lewis’s child. Do you know that?”
Silence!
Jane Smith’s expression drastically changed.
