?<strong>Chapter 1028:</strong>
When Kaelyn saw the car, her face brightened with anticipation, and she hurried outside. Through the bar’s window, Elyse could clearly see Kaelyn talking with two men.
They asionally looked towards Elyse, making her feel distinctly like a piece of merchandise. But who was truly the prey? That was yet to be determined.
Just as the two men were about to enter the bar following Kaelyn, they were suddenly shot in the head. Blood sttered onto Kaelyn, who was closest to them. She raised a hand to wipe the blood from her face and looked down at the lifeless bodies of the two men.
For the first time, her face showed panic. She wasn’t certain if the assassin had targeted the men or her.
She hurried back into the bar, nning to have Mabel call for help, but as she entered, she realized something was amiss. At some point, the bar had emptied of all other patrons. Only Elyse and Mabel were still seated.
When Kaelyn’s eyes met Elyse’s, she saw that Elyse had remained calm throughout, as if she were fully aware of what was unfolding. Thisposure suggested that Elyse was in on something.
Kaelyn then turned to Mabel, who had been attempting to blend into the background. Without a second thought, Kaelyn pped Mabel across the face, furiously using, “You wretched traitor! Did you disclose my ns to her?”
Mabel hadn’t anticipated Kaelyn striking her. Kaelyn had always portrayed herself as gentle and understanding around her. Mabel had never expected to see Kaelyn transform into the furious figure she now confronted.
Shocked by Kaelyn’s sudden outburst, Mabel was momentarily paralyzed. Seeing Mabel’s stunned look, Kaelyn grew even more irate, her teeth clenched. “Stop pretending. Did you leak everything to Elyse?”
Mabel held her cheek and responded, “Do you really think I would betray you?”
Despite Mabel having actually betrayed Kaelyn, she feltpelled to deny it. If it hadn’t been for Theo’s threats, she might have remained silent about the deal with the ck market but would not have actively worked against Kaelyn.
Now, Kaelyn had to kiss goodbye to eight million dors, and two ck market individuals had been killed during their meet-up. The ck market would undoubtedly be wary of her for a long time.
Kaelyn was in no position to consider whether Mabel might betray her. In her mind, Mabel was the only one who could have informed Elyse about the deal. She couldn’t think of anyone else.
As Kaelyn and Mabel argued, Elyse sent a message to Theo, asking him toe and detain Kaelyn before she had a chance to escape. A few minutester, Kaelyn was shocked when Theo entered the bar.
