To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 540

Chapter 540 What a Load of Crap

The branch office of the Faust Group was relatively unknown in Bardoff City, as it was less influential relative to the

many big names. However, as most people paid attention to the developments of the Glass family, they noticed

that the family had been making moves against the Faust Group, which piqued their curiosity.

The outsiders mistook the actions for the Glass family's ambition to acquire Faust Group, but only Jenny knew that

Rowena and Jolene were behind the recent moves. Worried that Alec would struggle to fend off the attacks, Jenny

wanted to call him out of concern but held back in the end. Based on her understanding of him, he would definitely

turn down her offer to help when his ego acted up, just like the average man.

With that in mind, she decided to ask James for help later. Well, she wasn't exactly asking him to actively

intervene.no.velxo It'd be great if he could at least hold off the Glass family. Moreover, a stronger Glass family

would be bad news for the Walter family.

Deep in thought, she didn't notice that the cab had veered off the route to the restaurant.

"We're here."

She snapped back to reality when she heard the husky voice of the driver. She looked out of the window and saw a

stretch of wilderness. That was when she realized that something was wrong.

"Where are we?’ she asked, but the driver didn't turn around.no.velxo She didn't have a clear view of his face.

"At your grave." She heard the husky voice once again. The man had gotten out of the car and opened the door to

the back seat. When he pulled her out of the car, she didn't resist because it would be difficult to fight him in the

cramped space anyway.

Rowena and Jolene must have been impatient, for they had immediately hired someone to get rid of her after the

event last night.

With one glance, Jenny could tell he was a tough nut to crack even before taking him on. By now, she had learned

her lessons and acknowledged that Bardoff City was full of skilled opponents. She was far from invincible in the city

with her current skills. Therefore, her first reaction was to buy time. She dialed a number using the phone hidden in

the bag,no.velxo even though she had no idea who she had called.

"Mister, calm down. You'll be sentenced for murder. Do you plan to ruin your life at such a young age?" She tried

persuading the man, but he charged at her impatiently. Speechless, she grumbled, 'We should at least chat. Why

the rush?'

"What a load of crap," he snickered, to her dismay. She wasn't a talkative person either, but she had to buy herself

time somehow or risk losing her life. Her decision not to fight him was proven wise-after fending off his attacks, she

realized she was no match for him.

"Rowena and her people have gotten smart. Now that they know I am skilled in martial arts, they would spend a

fortune hiring the best to take me on. They're no longer as dumb as they were," she mused. Despite not knowing

who she had called, she hoped the person who picked up would understand that she was in trouble and bring help.

Otherwise, she might meet her end that day.

While they were busy sparring, James received a call from Jenny. He thought she had something to say, but he

heard nothing from the other end, which was puzzling. As Jenny did not switch on the speaker mode, he could only

pick up some rustling noises without knowing what was happening. Nevertheless, he immediately sensed that

something was wrong.
