Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 609

Fourth Cecil sneered, “Why of course, the more valuable the thing is, the more I’ll treasure it. Do you think I collect these things for fun?”

Lucy grinned. “Then it’s simple. Things like jade and paintings are pretty valuable, and they are very easy to carry too. I can show you where they are if we have the time.”

Fourth Cecil thought Lucy was acting a bit strange today.

She was too compliant.

So compliant that he felt it was a little unreal.

Though it could be due to the danger Lucy knew she was in and so, she did not dare to defy him.

However, why would she tell him about her valuable collection so willingly? She even invited him to go to her house, asked him what kind of stuff he liked more, and gave him suggestions on which valuables were lighter to carry than the others.

This person must be crazy!

Fourth Cecil glanced at Lucy in the driver’s seat and grew increasingly more suspicious as he stared at her.

Even then, Lucy looked like she did not notice his intrusive gaze at all. She continued to drive as if the suggestion she had just made was a casual one — something she just thought she should share without any hidden agenda.

Just as Fourth Cecil was growing a little uneasy, Lucy made a sound of exclamation out of nowhere and pointed at a store that was selling luggage.

“They are selling luggage bags there. Do you want to buy one?”

Fourth Cecil turned and scanned the outside of the store. They were not in a busy part of the city, and there were not many people around. The store itself did not look too big. He could only make out two employees in it.

Still, he glanced upwards to inspect the corners of the store and found security cameras everywhere.

He whipped his head back to Lucy and pushed the dagger further into her waist as a warning before he seethed, “Stop talking! Drive!”

Lucy pursed her lips and mumbled, “I’m just trying to be nice.”

After that, she did not say anything else as she drove the car in silence.

About 20 minutes later, the car stopped outside a residential area.

Lucy pointed at a villa not far from where they were and said, “There it is. Do you want to go in on your own or do you need me to go with you?”

Fourth Cecil surveyed his surroundings for a moment. The guards outside the residential area did not suspect anything since Lucy was the one who brought him in.

Nevertheless, this was an upscale neighborhood, and their surveillance system was no doubt perfect.

He was not sure what would happen if he were to venture into the villa on his own and left Lucy alone in the car.

That was why he made the shrewd decision to take her with him.

Fourth Cecil pressed the dagger into Lucy’s waist and ordered in a low voice, “You’re going in with me.”

Lucy raised an eyebrow but did not refuse. She got out of the car with him.

He pushed her forward as they walked. When they arrived before the gates, he ordered her to open them.

Now, Lucy was stumped.

The truth was that she did not know the password to open the gates.

That was because this was not her house.

This was the villa that Joel took her to when she was drunk, and it was where she woke up the next day.

All the things she said back in that abandoned warehouse was gibberish. All she wanted was to lure Fourth Cecil to take her outside.

In fact, she had said those things out of a whim, thinking that she had to try every idea to stay alive for as long as possible, which surprisingly, Fourth Cecil believed her.

With all her meticulous calculations, she did not account for the fact that she would need a password to pass through those gates.

Joel did tell her about the password once. He said that this could be her home in the future, especially since Mama Katz would need a better place to live after she recuperated. This neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, so it was the perfect place for her to stay.

Lucy did not bother to care too much about it at that time. She was mumbling in her head that she had not even promised him that she would move in for real.
