Before leaving, she took out the small silver pistol from the drawer again. The bullets in the gun had been replenished by Vincent Vance, and last ti Victor Grant had also taught her the correct way to shoot, so now, she didn’t dare say she was adept, but at least holding this gun for self-defense was not a big problem.
Victor Grant quickly drove to Zenith Villa, bringing a total of six people and three cars. Although it was unclear how many enemies lay in ambush, May Morgan felt that given Victor Grant and his subordinates’ combat abilities, they should manage.
"Mainly, you called too late and urgently wanted to co, I didn’t have ti to gather more people. If you’d called earlier, do you believe I could have brought a truckload of people?"
Perhaps fearing May Morgan would complain about the lack of manpower, Victor Grant hurriedly explained to her after getting into the car.
May Morgan gave him a grateful look and comforted him instead: "It’s okay, this is already great. Primarily, the Zenith Villa is full of Vincent’s people; it’s inconvenient for to bring others for such matters, your people are more reliable."
Receiving May Morgan’s praise, Victor Grant smiled like a shy boy: "Now that you say so, I’m relieved."
At the mont May Morgan looked up, she happened to see this handso man, with a touch of a shy smile on his face.
The previous impression Victor Grant gave her wasn’t great because he had a foul mouth, acted like a brat, never spoke properly, and seed disrespectful, even contemptuous towards won. The incident with lanie Morgan had left a considerable shadow for May Morgan.
But at this mont, May Morgan suddenly felt that the man beside her might have a cute side too.
For instance, when he smiled like this, he was actually quite good-looking and charming.
"Well, I still don’t have cash on hand, but Vincent returned my diamond ring to . This ring is worth tens of millions, why don’t you use it to buy so drinks for your brothers?"
May Morgan didn’t want to owe Victor Grant a favor, so she took off the diamond ring on her hand and handed it to Victor Grant.
However, this ti Victor Grant didn’t accept it. Last ti, he took her things partly out of anger, partly because he genuinely wanted to tease this girl. He wasn’t truly after money; after all, he, Victor Grant, wasn’t short of it.
"I don’t want your diamond ring, it’s worth tens of millions. If things really go south with Vincent later, he’ll surely cut off your inco. Keeping these jewels, you can at least sell them for money, right?" Victor Grant pushed back the diamond ring May Morgan handed over with a serious face.
May Morgan just didn’t want to owe Victor Grant favors, but deep down she knew Vincent would never betray her, so naturally, there wouldn’t be a point where they actually got divorced.
"I’m sorry, but I really have nothing else to pawn to you. Just take it, okay?" May Morgan placed the diamond ring back into Victor Grant’s hand, speaking sincerely.
When May Morgan’s small hand unintentionally brushed against Victor Grant’s palm, he felt as if sothing lightly pulled at his heart, feeling quite strange.
"Then this ti, I’ll offer you a free service and won’t charge." Victor Grant glanced at the Star of Extre Night in his hand, moved his lips slightly, and hurriedly pulled May Morgan’s hand, putting the diamond ring back on her left ring finger while her expression was one of astonishnt.
"Your little hand is the best-looking one I’ve ever seen among won’s hands," Victor Grant said, holding May Morgan’s soft, delicate hand, sowhat stunned.
May Morgan quickly pulled her hand back from Victor Grant’s and said awkwardly, "Of course, my hand is the most special among won; who else can bend steel bars barehanded like I can?"
Victor Grant awkwardly cleared his throat and apologized to May Morgan, "I’m sorry, I didn’t an to say that to you."
"No offense taken, it’s true." May Morgan extended her right hand, clenched it slightly, feeling the power in her palm, and then continued with Victor Grant, "My strength now is indeed terrifying; you didn’t say anything wrong, I know it myself."
Victor Grant looked at May Morgan’s hands, which were no different from any other woman’s, with a flicker of darkness and couldn’t help but ask, "Is this... an innate strength? Or developed later?"
"Neither, it’s because I was hard by soone!"
May Morgan sighed helplessly, withdrew her hand, and looked out at the dark night outside the window.
Thinking back to the terror when lanie Morgan kidnapped her and that old woman drew her blood, May Morgan couldn’t help but feel hatred.
All of this was caused by that bitch lanie Morgan. Now that she finally caught her, she definitely wouldn’t let her off easily.
Victor Grant curiously stared at May Morgan’s face for a long ti, then lightly shifted his gaze to her hands clasped on her lap.
The feel of holding her small hand earlier was really no different from other girls’. If there were a difference, it was finer, softer, more likely to make one’s heart flutter. If this strength were acquired, then May Morgan’s hands couldn’t possibly be so soft, so fine, so tender, unless it was innate.
But, if it were innate, then when he previously had soone kidnap her and attempted to assault her, her resistance was no different from that of an ordinary person.
So, just as May Morgan said, her condition was due to later sabotage, and it was recent.
Victor Grant suddenly recalled eavesdropping on that conversation between Vincent Vance and the doctor at the hospital, and his heart sank.
"Does your husband know you’ve been made like this by soone?" Victor Grant pointed to May Morgan’s fingers and asked intentionally.
May Morgan awkwardly retracted her fingers, her voice light, "No, I’m afraid to let him know, afraid he’ll think I’m a monster."
"Oh..." A complex glint flashed across Victor Grant’s eyes. Thinking of Vincent Vance’s instructions to the doctor that day, he hesitated for a mont before finally choosing silence.
He was sure Vincent knew about May Morgan’s changes, but he deliberately didn’t say anything, so May Morgan always thought he was unaware.
And the reason Vincent kept silent was likely to consider May Morgan’s feelings, not wanting to embarrass her.
Since Vincent had co to this understanding, Victor Grant naturally also had it.
The car smoothly arrived at the Morgan Family’s gate; there was no ambush or attack along the way. Although the car arrived uneventfully at the Morgan Family’s entrance, May Morgan’s heart felt even more unsettled.
Her initial assumption was that lanie Morgan and Arthur Vance had united to ambush her midway, but unexpectedly, she’d arrived at the Morgan Family’s without incident.
Could it be that Arthur Vance’s folks didn’t dare act because they saw Victor Grant?
Or is the real battleground actually at the Morgan Family’s?
