Chapter 763
Spoiled by the President
Staring at Vickie coldly, Gregory was nevertheless unbothered with her prattle just now. He coolly said, âLetâs get in the car!â
Vickie giggled.
It was still the same old insouciant look. The only change was that her gaze had become a bit colder.
âWhere are we going?â
Gregory kept silent.
The atmosphere between them became exceptionally quiet and strange right away. Even the chauffeur could not help feeling nervous for them.
After a while, his voice was finally heard as he said in a deep voice, âWhy? Are you scared that Iâll make your life miserable?â
âHa!â
As he finished speaking, Vickieâs cold laugh could be heard.
Without delay, he pulled the door open and got in the car.
The door was closed with a slam, and it was quiet in the car. The chauffeur looked pale, not knowing what these two enemies were trying to do.
The chauffeur could only cast a glance at Gregory through the rearview mirror in fear.
Opening his lips, Gregory ordered, âHead to Songshan.â
Upon hearing the instruction, the chauffeur promptly acknowledged and got the car started.
In the meantime, Jennie was watching the black Rolls Royce leave from her dorm upstairs. Her brow furrowed with unease.
Because Vickie had just returned, she found that it was quite strange for Vickie to go out at this time. Initially, she went to the balcony merely to dry her clothes, and she did not expect to see Vickie getting in the car.
When it came to those few years right after Vickie left the orphanage, Jennie was not familiar since Vickie had never told her.
Nevertheless, she could faintly sense that Vickie was doing something dangerous.
Therefore, when she suddenly learned that Vickie was involved in accidental killing and was sent to jail, her heart had been filled with sadness.
Having said that, she was not very surprised about it, in fact.
It was not that she had not thought of finding out about Vickieâs experience and that case.
It was because the officials as well as Vickie herself were unwilling to reveal any more. She only got to know about the duration of Vickieâs sentence.
Thus, she could not find out and had better not question further.
Now, she had just been released from jail, and apparently, had no one to rely on. However, a grand car just came and took her away just like that.
No one knew if anything would happen to her and who was in the car.
Personally speaking, Jennie actually hoped that Vickie would not embark on the previous path and get into the same old line of work after getting out of jail.
Jennie was not silly. She had grown up. No matter how cleverly Vickie was able to cover things up in the past, some things just failed to escape her notice at times.
Jennie probably knew what Vickie was doing. Because of this, she hoped that Vickie would wash her hands of it after getting out by learning from her mistake and avoid repeating it.
However, she now seemed to be connected with those kinds of people again.
Jennie clearly knew that she was neither in the position nor did she have the right to advise Vickie, but she was worried nevertheless.
At the thought of it, she could not help but let out a sigh. Anyhow, at this moment, she could not stop Vickie, so she could only wait for her to return.
As Jennie was thinking about it, she turned around and entered the house.
On the other hand, in the car...
The atmosphere was dull. The drive to Songshan from here took more than two hours.
The chauffeur had probably guessed why the boss wanted to bring this woman there.
It was just because the chauffeur knew the reason that he was filled with fear.
As one of the few people who had witnessed the war four years ago, he knew that this girl was not as innocent as she seemed on the outside. She was nothing but a walking virus. She resembled the most powerful poppy that could kill people at any time.
At such a thought, his countenance inevitably changed. He became more nervous.
Compared to his nervousness, the two people seated at the back looked relatively calmer.
Since Gregory and Vickie got in the car, they did not say a word.
Both of them sat there in peace despite the gap between them being so big that it could fill two people. Practically, one of them was seated furthest left whereas the other was seated furthest right. They seemed to assume a stance towards minding their own business.
However, with their hostile relationship, it was too bizarre for them to behave in such a peaceful manner.
With a composed expression and eyes as sharp as a hawkâs, Gregory kept staring straight ahead.
As for Vickie, she turned her head to look out of the window. Her expression was as cool as a cucumber where there was not any tinge of hatred or fierceness seen.
Even the corners of lips were slightly raised, showing a curve in her smile. She looked particularly serene and fine.
For those who did not know their relationship and saw this picture, they might not have thought that there was something complicated going on between Gregory and Vickie. Rather, they would see them as a couple on vacation.
The atmosphere in the car remained silent.
The car was surrounded by that manâs distinctive scent. However, Vickie did not seem to sense it from her seat and remained impassive.
Two hours later, the car finally reached Songshan which was a hundred miles away from the suburb.
It was a rather desolate area. Except that there were some agritainment activities around, nothing else was worth exploring.
However, there was a cemetery garden on the mountain.
The chauffeur got down and helped them open the car door. Without a word, Gregory was the first one to get out.
Vickie followed him down from the car. During the autumn afternoon, there was a chill in the air. Although the sky was sunny, it did not really feel warm when the sun shone on them. There were gusts of wind that brought the cold of early winter instead.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Vickie stared up into the dense leaves as well as the shady path made of stone steps. Her face was stiff.
At this moment, how could she not know Gregoryâs purpose of bringing her here?
Something appeared to have struck her. A sardonic smile flashed at the corners of her mouth, and a wave of sarcasm swept over.

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Gregory still did not say a word. Upon ordering the chauffeur to park here and stay in the car to guard the place, he walked up the mountain alone.
Instantly, the chauffeurâs mouth drooped as if he was worried. However, because of the pressure from Gregory, he did not have the nerve to talk his boss out of it.
Much as he did not give advice, he went to great lengths to do whatever he could for Gregory.
When Vickie walked over, the chauffeurâs gaze was fixed on her as if he was going to drill a hole in her through his gaze which was filled with warning.
Who was Vickie?
Back then, she had been one of the few vicious murderers from the Vermilion Bird Organization. How could she be frightened by this little assistant?
Therefore, despite the assistantâs stare, she turned around and ran straight toward the mountain.
Although the assistant saw it and felt quite worried, he could not do anything. He could only watch them entering the mountain from their figures. He then turned around and got in the car to wait.
At this moment, it was already not that early. By the time they departed, the time was already 2:00 p.m. After two hours of driving, it was already 4:30 p.m.
The night drew in earlier during autumn. At this time, there was a faint sight of the sun descending toward the west.
The golden sunset shone down from the sky, blanketing the mountain forest in a light golden beam.
