Chapter 533

Joyce's expression was too late to conceal and had completely

revealed her true thoughts.

Christian knew that she was privately investigating Charlotte, which

was shocking enough. She did follow Charlotte quietly a few times and

found nothing. Not only did he know about her investigation, but he

also knew about Ricky?

Of course she wanted to know, but, since she still could not find out the

purpose of Christian, could his words be trusted?

Christian hooked up a wicked smile, as if guessing what she was

thinking, "What, don't you believe what I said?"

"..." Joyce pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Gee, with your connections, you will not be able to find out anything

about Ricky after a hundred years. And that Karl who helped you

investigate. Perhaps he has got quite a strong background, and maybe

he can get some information from the government and the police but

there is really not much he can do other than that." Christian lazily said.

Joyce was even more shocked that Christian even knew that she and

Karl were working on the investigation together.

Moreover, she knew Karl's background only yesterday. And Christian

knew it easily. He was really quite extraordinary.

“You're investigating me? Stalking me?" She blurted out.

Other than that reason, she couldn't think of any reason why he could

be so aware of what she was doing.

"Don't say that. Stalking you? Why can't I send someone to protect

you?" Christian stretched out his hand, and his long and slender fingers

flicked Joyce's soft cheeks, his voice ambiguous.

Joyce bit her lower lip, her pretty face got serious.

She knew, and could usually feel, that there were people around her

watching her whereabouts, but she always thought it was from Karl.

Because since she was kidnapped and the truth about Stephanie's

case was questioned, Karl was afraid that someone would hurt her

again and had been secretly sending people to protect her, something

that Luther knew before he lost his memory.

She just didn't expect that Christian would also send someone to follow

her. No wonder he knew her whereabouts so clearly.

Like when she stalked Charlotte, or when she had dinner with Karl last

night.

And today, Christian knew she was having dinner with Justin, and after

leaving the restaurant, he blocked her path on the pathway, all of which

was well planned out.

She narrowed her eyes and looked coldly at the bewitching,

unparalleled man in front of her.

He was scary.

It might seem that he had done nothing, but actually everything was

under his control. She has no idea what he's really up to.

“I don't need anyone to protect me, please don't send anyone to follow

me in the future.” Her voice was extremely cold, as if she was shutting

him right out of the door.

"Without protection, do you think you can live until today? The person

who was going to hurt you probably would have done it already."

Christian smiled wickedly, “You'll have to thank me for that.”

"So, you know who's trying to hurt me?" Joyce frowned.

At this moment, Christian's look was serious. She felt that his words

were beginning to have some credibility.

"Maybe. But not for sure.”

Christian shrugged his shoulders and flattened his thin lips.

"So, are you interested in Ricky's information or not?"

“You know very well that I must want to know, so why ask more

questions. I just want to know what conditions or purpose you have in

telling me." Joyce was no slouch either.

"Of course there's a purpose. You have to promise to help me do one

thing, which I have not thought of yet. I will naturally let you know after I

think about it. There is a side request though — immediately unblock

me, and when I send messages you have to return.”
