Chapter 226: Jealousy
At half past seven o'clock in the evening, the black sedan stopped in front of the door.
Helena wrapped herself in a shawl, and once again remembered the horrific pool of blood left in the villa in the afternoon, and only felt that tonight seemed to be extremely cold.
Since the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the whole region has been in turmoil, and burns and looting are common.
Even in the custom street, you can often hear the sound of smashing and shouting from the streets and alleys.
But she's never faced so intuitively, real gangsters.
The heart-rending screams, the shattered bloody pictures, the fact that he went to pick her up in the morning, and the man who was talking and laughing in the car was thrown out of the gate like a rag, it was enough to imagine how bleak the life he was about to face in a disorderly society.
Da-da-da-da.
Stiletto leather boots step on the marble staircase, and the sound is crisp.
Helena froze, looked back, and saw a man and a woman strolling down from the second floor.
The tall and majestic man changed into a tuxedo, combed his hair back to reveal his handsome face, and he was bowing his head slightly to talk to the person next to him.
And the girl is still wearing a simple white lotus ruffled shirt and black suspenders, with waist-length long black hair draped over her shoulders, and her palm-sized little face is fair and beautiful, even more delicate than her heavy makeup.
"There's no need to be angry, just forget the lesson." She said as she walked: "Andre, you are a businessman now, and you still have to avoid things that involve human life, so as not to be caught." β
The tone is calm and calm.
Andre, who was bent on making amends, could only nod regretfully when he heard this, saying that it was his own negligence that gave her a bad experience.
The girl lowered her eyes and smiled, and she looked quiet and free, not at all that the bloody and cruel entertainment show a few hours ago was her idea.
Helena was afraid of it, and at the same time, she couldn't stop being jealous and went crazy.
Before the war, she was also a wealthy daughter, learning foreign languages since she was a child, and even wandering in the customs street and selling her soul, she was always unwilling to live in this kind of depressed life.
Until he met Andrei, the man who ransomed her from Mama-san.
She thought her life would change forever......
However, why is there Lian Xiao, that high position should have belonged to her!
Sensing her gaze, the two men on the stairs looked sideways slightly, then looked away and went out to get into the car as if they were not looking.
"The theme tonight is still the development right of new markets, and the price can be relaxed, so be sure to pry the other party's mouth open."
Helena was in the passenger seat, gritted her teeth after hearing the command, and whispered humiliatingly: "Yes, Mr. Andrei." β
It was only at times like this that she could feel strongly that she was a tool.
I used to think that men were all profit-seeking by nature.
Now it seems that if it were replaced by Lian Xiao, the situation should be different.
But so what!
Helena secretly clenched her palms: she wanted to climb up, and if Lian Xiao could become Andrei's partner, then she could too!
The dinner was held in an upscale castle in the heart of the city, where VIPs and dignitaries were specially entertained, and people like AndrΓ© who came every day in search of opportunities were like carp crossing the river.
So when the waiter at the door saw him with two female companions, he said meaningfully, "Good luck to Mr. tonight." β
Andrei didn't reply, and only followed the crowd to the elevator to the banquet hall on the fifth floor.
There's an auction tonight.
Their target, Garrett, was the most eye-catching aristocrat.
