Christoff raised an apprehensive eyebrow and inquired, âWhat did you do to me?â When the driver-cum-bodyguard heard the noise, he checked his rearview mirror. As soon as he was sure that the two passengers sitting behind him did not pose a threat to each other, he anxiously inquired, âAre you all right, Chris?â When he asked that question, he nearly pulled over.
Jewel reached into her boots and pulled out a dagger, fixing her gaze on the driver. If this driver dares to attack. âIâm fine, keep driving,â Christoff instructed. Then, he cast his eyes over Olivia and inquired, âHow did you do it? Perhaps, you can do acupoint?â
âSort of,â she responded. He clutched his numb arm and exclaimed, âI did not expect you to possess such abilities. Now, hurry up and relieve me of this numbness.â âWhen we arrive at the airport, I will do it.â
âDo you treat people who genuinely want to help you in this manner? I feel awful right now.â âThis is how you can remain still.â
âFine, I surrender. Iâll stay still. Youâre such a vicious woman.â
âSo, how did you change your facial appearance? Can you help Jewel with changing hers as well?â âYes, but first, relieve me from the numbness.â
âTurn around, Olivia said. However, the man did as he was told without raising any objections. Although Christoff could not feel what she was doing to him, he noticed that the numbness in his arm gradually faded. Then, he turned around and glared at her, with anger and amusement, he uttered, âUngrateful brat!â
She pursed her lips in annoyance. âI have yet to receive your assistance. How can you call me that?â He began to choke and nodded vigorously. âFine. All my efforts to investigate Eugene Nolan on your behalf have been in vain, right?â
Rather than waste time chatting with him about frivolous topics, Olivia urged, âCome on, tell me how you altered your facial appearance. Did you use make-up?â
âOf course not,â Christoff smiled. âThis is Samuel Courtâs instinct for survival.â When she heard that, she came to an understanding. No wonder, although Samuel Court is not particularly powerful, nobody in.
Southeast Asia dares to mess with him, and even the most powerful Double Dragon Court allowed him to establish a foothold. It turns out that this is the secret weapon. âFine. I donât need to know about it anymore.â
Then, Christoff comforted her, âDonât worry. You can count on me to assist you as promised. Once we arrive in Nambahd, it is still possible to alter your facial appearance. Your new facial appearance can only last for 48 hours.â âThanks,â Olivia replied.
After that, she cast a skeptical glance at him, âAre you boarding the plane with that face?â
He smiled at her. âOf course not. Iâll let you see a miracle when we get to the airport.â Although she was sure that he still had Avery Mauveâs face on, she was taken aback to see that he had reverted to his own face as soon as he stepped out of the vehicle at the airport. His facial appearance left her in shock and disbelief that she could not believe it. How does he do it?
Christoffâs eyes were sly and flirtatious when he cast another glance at Olivia. Moreover, the scar between his brows added to his feral appearance. âWhy? You donât recognize met anymore?â
She questioned him with a threatening gaze. âHas your arm recovered?â He clicked his tongue and took a step back. âYou are a vicious woman.â Olivia was at a loss for words after hearing that.
When they finally got on the plane and landed in Nambahd, it was already 9.00AM the following day. She made another attempt to call Eugene, but the call was unsuccessful. Christoff reassured her, saying, âWhatâs the rush? Since we just arrived, the first thing ont the agenda is to get some rest.â
Why wouldnât she be anxious? She wouldnât have gone to Nambahd if she wasnât worried about Eugene. âNo, Iâm going to the police station right now. The police will not arbitrarily detain someone.â
