Chapter 294
They encountered Chase and Tanya as they reached the lobby.
Chase approached. “I heard the system issues are resolved. Thank you, Mr. Reed.” Tim replied coolly, “My pleasure, Mr. Sterling.”
Chase continued, “I’m very satisfied with your work. I hope we can collaborate again.”
“Thank you for your kind words,” Tim replied, though he and Ashley had already blacklisted XunDu.
As they reached the parking lot, someone rushed towards Chase with a knife. Ashley and Tim, focused on leaving, didn’t notice initially. Ashley gasped, “Xiao-”
Tanya, closer, pushed Chase out of the way. The knife pierced her chest. The attacker was subdued. Chase, his face ashen, picked up Tanya and sped off.
“Mm–hmm.”
She didn’t care about Tanya. She said, “The other day, I said-”
He interrupted.“Look at this. If you have no objections, sign here.”
