Chapter 773 Ask Him for a Favor
In fact, she knew that there were guards around when she and Felix were together.
They were visible then but hidden now. It meant that Felix had raised the security level of the castle.
As a good assassin, she was used to scouting when she first arrived at a place, but she didn't care
about the hidden guards. After all, Felix was no ordinary man.
Besides, the Bissel family was rich!
Rich people would value their lives and hire top-notch security guards in case someone would break in
and rob them with heavy weapons.
Many people hated the rich in this world.
She was still alert and secretly figured out the location of the hidden guards and memorized it one dark
night.
She did it just in case. It was dangerous for her to stay here now.
She and Felix had agreed to work together, but they hated each other and might hurt each other
physically someday.
No one in the castle took sides with her. In fact, if it wasn't hard for her to do that on her own, she
wouldn't have forced herself to stay here.
Suddenly, her heart ached and she frowned slightly.
Queeny blinked and took a deep breath to calm down before opening her laptop.
She browsed a few entertainment sites for a few minutes before opening the news page.
Because she didn't know if the internet was safe here, she didn't dare to browse the military sites she
used to follow, although there might be more news she wanted to know on those sites.
She skimmed through a few military sites. There was no special news except for the news about the
last few border drills. Queeny was a little disappointed when a pop-up window caught her attention.
She clicked on it and saw the story of a female international student in Roland who was raped and then
killed after coming out of a nightclub. She took a cursory glance and was shocked when she saw the
last photo.
It was taken in a foul ditch next to a road. The girl was naked and had dark red stains on her body. Her
face was pale and there were many disgusting and horrible mollusks on her slightly decayed lower
body.
Queeny's face turned pale at once and her breathing became rapid. She clutched her laptop so hard
that her fingers turned pale. She stared at the photo on the screen with a grim look in her eyes. She
looked like a demon who had just come out of hell.
"Clap!"
She slammed her laptop shut, closed her eyes, and raised her head to calm herself down.
Then she quickly jumped out of bed.
It was 11 at night and everyone was sleeping, but she knew Felix must still be awake.
She went to the main building and saw from afar that the light in his study was still on.
Queeny had lived here for a few days and knew that he often worked until 1 or 2 am and left at 7 in the
morning, so the two of them rarely met.
It was the first time she had come to see him on her own accord.
Because it was in the middle of the night, she was wearing a dark red PJ with a slip dress inside and a
thin silk coat on top.
"Knock, knock!"
She went to the study and knocked on the door.
Three seconds later, she heard Felix say in a low voice, "Come in."
Queeny pushed open the door and saw him thinking hard at his desk. The dim light illuminated his
handsome face. He was frowning slightly and pursing his lips. It looked like a nice painting.
He didn't raise his head. It was like he already knew who it was.
As expected, he asked directly, "What's wrong?"
Queeny didn't walk in but squinted at him and crooned from the doorway, "Do me a favor."
She hesitated for three seconds before saying, "I'm going to Tophich tomorrow morning. Arrange a
flight for me."
The Bissel Group had bought the Archit Automobile Group in Roland and Roland Airlines was in debt
to Archit Automobile Group, so Queeny knew that Felix was privileged in some way.
It was too late for her to book a flight to Tophich tomorrow morning, so she had to ask him for help.
However, Felix asked without even looking up, "Why?"
"A friend of mine died and I'm going to the funeral," Queeny lied.
"Name?"
Queeny froze, "Who?" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
After five seconds, Felix looked up from a pile of papers. His eyes were as calm as the ocean in the
light. He said, "Your friend."
"..."
It was just a lie and Queeny didn't think about it. She was afraid that if she made up a name, he would
get to the bottom of it, so she didn't answer.
Felix raised his eyebrows, impatient.
She thought for a moment and suddenly became annoyed. She leaned against the door and said, "You
don't know her. Just tell me if you'll help me or not!"
Felix purses his lips and looked her up and down.
Then he looked down and continued to read those papers, but the look in his eyes darkened.
"No!" He refused in a low voice.
After a moment, he sensed the look she was giving him. He frowned slightly, looked up to meet her
eyes, and explained, "There's a typhoon in Tophich tomorrow. I'll send one of my men to be there if it's
not that important!"
Queeny froze again and shook her head, "Don't bother."
Under Felix's surprised gaze, she turned to leave and didn't forget to close the door.
However, she couldn't help but frown slightly just as she closed the door.
It was late at night and there was only one orange wall light on in the hallway. Her shadow was long in
the soft light. She stood straight there like a statue.
"I won't leave you in a dirty land!" She clenched her fists.
