424: Chapter 405: Lingering Voices 424: Chapter 405: Lingering Voices Dawn broke.
Gao Yi didn’t say anything, he just took a card out of his pocket.
As he was about to place the card on the table, he frowned and instead took Marina’s hand, placing the card in her palm.
“What’s this?”
Marina opened her eyes, first curious, but soon beca disappointed and sowhat annoyed, “What do you an?”
As he took a few tissues from the desk to start wiping it, Gao Yi quietly said, “The card contains one hundred million dollars.”
If there were rely a hundred thousand or eight hundred thousand, or even one or two million, Marina would have considered it an insult.
But this card had one hundred million.
That was one hundred million US dollars, not Zimbabwean dollars.
That made all the difference.
Marina’s eyes widened in shock.
Gao Yi threw the tissue into the wastepaper basket and continued calmly, “Made quite a bit this ti from Iron Fist George, couldn’t have done it without you, so I’m giving you half.
How to divide it is up to you, but I suggest sharing it with everyone.
I’m not aware of your current situation, so you handle it.”
Marina was still lying in her massive office chair, staring blankly at Gao Yi.
After Gao Yi finished wiping the desk and approached Marina, she struggled to her feet.
Once Gao Yi had sat down, she returned to his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck, curling up against him.
“I really…
I’ve never…
I thought…
I didn’t know…”
Her mind was in turmoil, words failing to form properly, just like that.
Finally, Marina lifted her head, pressing against Gao Yi’s chin, whispering softly, “Emily really likes you.
I was intending to…
after fulfilling my wish, I would hand you over to Emily, but now I can’t let go.
Forget it, Emily is still young, you won’t like her, right?”
“Mhm, your idea is nice, but don’t think about it anymore.”
Marina sighed softly, murmuring, “I always thought that you were just taking advantage from and that would be it, our relationship simple and fragile, barely maintaining the most basic friendship and cooperation.
Emily likes you, let her try to conquer you then, it’s no concern of mine.”
Gao Yi frowned and said, “I’ll forgive you this ti, don’t do this again.”
Marina bit her lip, saying, “I’ll transfer Emily away, far away, so she’ll never get the chance to be close to you again.
Oh no, I am so much older than you, what should I do?
You are still young, but I’ll soon get old, and you won’t like anymore when that happens…”
Panic began to show on Marina’s face as she sat up straight, earnestly saying to Gao Yi, “My body and soul are conquered by you.
I can’t imagine being with another man now.
Although I know you won’t marry or even make your girlfriend, in a few years you’ll grow tired and disgusted with .
What should I do then?”
Gao Yi was just a young man whose sensibilities had only recently begun to erge, how could he possibly handle this situation.
What should Gao Yi know to do?
How do scoundrels usually extricate themselves at tis like this?
Marina said in a low voice, “I’m finished.
You adorable yet hateful little bastard, you’re killing .
How am I supposed to live the rest of my life?
What am I to do?
You must co visit every now and then in the future, otherwise, try dating Emily for a bit!”
Gao Yi almost pushed Marina out.
Do French intelligence officer won have such crazy thoughts?
With a light sigh, Marina laid her head back on Gao Yi’s chest and whispered, “I’ve gone a bit crazy, because the thought of not seeing you in the future makes panic.
I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have ntioned Emily; I’ve beco sowhat unscrupulous.
To say such things at a ti like this, I’m really sorry.
I’m just not used to having all my plans suddenly disrupted, and I can’t think of any way to keep you liking always.”
A middle-aged woman, a French intelligence officer middle-aged woman.
Marina’s lack of security isn’t just serious, it’s extrely serious.
Facing a woman who is completely defenseless and fundantally insecure, Gao Yi suddenly feels like he’s getting a bit burned.
If he knew earlier, he wouldn’t have been so impressive; if only he hadn’t been so perfect.
Poor teeth are suited for soft food, but Gao Yi’s teeth are fine; he neither needs nor wants to live off of soone else.
So, how do scumbags get out of situations like this?
Gao Yi’s mind is in turmoil, but he underestimated Marina’s ability to self-regulate her emotions.
After pouring out her feelings with tears in her voice, Marina sighed softly, straightened herself while hooking Gao Yi’s neck, and looked directly at him, whispering, “Don’t worry, I’m just a bit upset, but I’ll recover quickly.”
Gao Yi didn’t say anything, but the problem seed to have resolved itself.
Marina said seriously, “Now if anyone wants to kill you, I will take them down first, no one is allowed to touch you!”
“Hmm, speaking of which, my current situation isn’t great, but although the Andic Group has issued a hit on , I…
don’t feel particularly endangered.”
Gently patting Marina’s back, Gao Yi said calmly, “So don’t worry, I will live well, and I’ll often co to see you.
Look, I ca directly this ti, didn’t I?”
“Don’t underestimate Andic, you feel safe only because you consider visible dangers not dangerous.”
Finally, they tackled the matter at hand, and Marina imdiately beca serious again.
With both hands cupping Gao Yi’s face, Marina spoke sternly, “Promise you’ll be careful; you have no idea what an assassin’s world is like, you don’t know how top-notch assassins kill.
You are formidable, but you are not a true assassin.”
With tenderness, Gao Yi said, “I’ll be careful, I promise.”
Marina’s gaze turned hazy, her voice filled with a determined chill, “Andic Group, Andic, what can I do, how can I proceed?
Andic!”
A French middle-aged woman filled with a sense of crisis and concern for her man can be terrifying.
It’s not only because she dares to do anything, but more importantly, she truly has the capabilities and power to do a lot.
If Gao Yi fails to et Marina’s expectations, or if he hurts her feelings, then he’s in danger.
But now Marina has found an outlet, directing all her insecurity, fear, and anger at the Andic Group, which changes things.
What could Gao Yi say?
All he could do, moved and yet, not daring to make a move, was say, “You don’t need to worry about these things, I can handle them well.
If I really encounter an insurmountable danger, I will certainly co to you for shelter, okay?”
Marina looked at Gao Yi and whispered softly, “I will protect you; I’d die before letting you die!”
