Chapter 157 Car Accident

“What’s so important that you have to tell me in person?” Gerald asked.

He didn’t really want to meet Red Rose since she was too charming.

He was fine with her before she found out that he was Watchman No. 0.

Now that he did find out, Gerald did not dare to lay a hand on her. If he got too close to her, she might

take

the chance to poison him.

Red Rose was such a psychopath. Gerald couldn’t predict what she wanted to do.

Therefore, he tried his best to avoid her.

“Well, I just miss you. You never answer my texts or call me,” Red Rose said in a pitiful voice on the

phone.

“Stop there. I can’t stand you talking like this,” Gerald said.

“Why do you have to stand? We can always get laid,” she said in a seducing manner.

“For fuck’s sake!” Gerald couldn’t stand it anymore and quickly said, “If you don’t get down to the point,

I will

hang up.”

“Alright, I’ll tell you.” Red Rose withdrew her flirting and said in a normal tone, “I’m afraid you can’t see Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Franklin

in a short time.”

“Why do you say so?” Gerald was slightly intrigued. He asked, “Do you find where he is?”

“I won’t say I ‘find’ him. He is too careful to expose his location. But I assume that he is hiding in Sin

City,” Red

Rose said.

Hearing this, Gerald frowned and asked, “Are you sure?”

“Fairly possible. I tried to contact him, and it took him a long time to respond every time. If he was

outside, he

won’t need that long,” she said in a low voice.

“Is he willing to leave the city to meet me?” Gerald asked again.

“I am trying to make an appointment.” Red Rose pondered for a moment and continued indifferently,

“But

there is another thing about Blood Lotus that might concern you. They have contacted the Hermit and

the Dempsey family. It seems that they are cooperating.”

“Is there any evidence?” Gerald narrowed his eyes.

If Red Rose had evidence, he could save a lot of trouble when dealing with the Dempsey family.

“They’re too cautious to leave me any,” said Red Rose, “I heard it from Franklin. I was asked to contact

Sean Dempsey here and I should know something from him. But I couldn’t contact him.”

Gerald rubbed his nose and said, “You can’t contact him. He is dead.”

“Really? You did it?” Red Rose asked in shock.

Gerald nodded. “Yes. It was the Dempsey family that leaked your information in the battle three years

ago,

right?”

Red Rose shook her head and said, “I don’t know. I only know that there is a mole among the Night

Watch, and the mole isn’t any nobody. But no one knows who it is except for Franklin.”

Gerald sighed. He knew that the Dempsey family never left any traces when doing such things.

He took a deep breath and asked, “Then do you have information about the other experts of Blood

Lotus?”

Although he couldn’t tackle others now, he could concentrate on finishing those people in Red Lotus

first.

“No, I don’t. We seldom contact each other, Red Rose said, “Most people live their own lives, waiting

for

Franklin’s assignment.”

“I see, then I’ll hang up first! Remember to finish your deal with the Zumthor family, Gerald said.

“Dear, your avoidance would only excite me!” Red Rose said with a sweet voice.

Gerald cursed in his heart, and then quickly hung up the phone.

After that, Gerald exhaled. At this time, the waiter slowly served the dishes.

After having his meal, Gerald slowly left Splendor Restaurant. Since Ingrid was now under the watch of

Valery and the others, he didn’t need to rush back. After thinking for a while, he decided to go to an

Internet

cafe to play games.

After searching on his mobile phone, he found a nearby one and went toward it.

“Bang!”

At this time, a bang suddenly rang not far away.

Gerald looked over and frowned slightly.

The sound came from a black car and a red Ferrari that just collided.

“Damn!” He was shocked and went over to check.

A lot of people were gathering around. Gerald walked to the front and found that the black car rear-

ended the

red one. It was clear who was responsible.

The black car was not a cheap one. It was an Audi A6. But compared to the Ferrari, it looked so

shabby.

“This Audi’s driver is doomed!”

“The damage is so severe. It will cost the driver a great fortune.

The onlookers began to discuss.

Gerald frowned. At this time, a very strong man came down from the driver’s seat of the Ferrari. He

wore a pair of sunglasses and looked angry!

Walking over to the Audi, he patted its door and shouted, “Open the door!”

Gerald frowned deeply. Through the car window, he saw a woman in the driver’s seat. She was about

thirty years old. Even without any makeup, she looked quite pretty.

However, her hair was a little disheveled. Because of the car accident, her head seemed to have been

knocked, and blood streamed down her forehead.

In the back seat, there lay a three-year-old child, but he seemed to be unconscious. Judging from his

shortness of breath, Gerald knew that the boy was ill.

Hearing the strong man’s roar, the woman in the driver’s seat quickly opened the door. The strong man

was

so impatient that he pulled her out as soon as the door opened.

Someone saw the woman and said, “Isn’t this Adriana Maycock?”

“You’re right!” Another one took a closer look and agreed.

Gerald was a little confused. He frowned and asked, “Who is Adriana?”

“She hasn’t shown up in public in the recent two years. It’s normal that you don’t know,” explained one

person,

“Adriana used to be a hit on Sacramento TV. But she seems to leave the stage. You know what

showbiz is

like. Fame just goes with youth. Right now, the most popular star on Sacramento TV is Cassidy.”

Gerald knew Cassidy. She was the host of the auction not long ago.

“That’s right,” Another person cut in, “Adriana once hosted two popular variety shows. But after Cassidy

rose

to fame, she was replaced by Cassidy. Since then, Adriana gradually disappeared from the spotlight.”

Hearing this, Gerald thought of something and looked at the red car.

In its passenger seat sat a person that Gerald recognized after a second look. He was surprised by the

coincidence.

The person in the passenger seat wore a hat and a pair of sunglasses!

However, Gerald’s detection ability was so strong that he saw through the disguise and recognized that

person. It was Cassidy.

He was bewildered, is this an intended murder done by Adriana as revenge on Cassidy who stole her

thunder? Does Adriána plan to kill Cassidy at the risk of her own life?

Cassidy was sitting there, uninjured. She secretly revealed a faint and mocking smile and hid the smile

in an

instant.

When Gerald saw this, he seemed to understand something.

“Do

you know how to drive?” The strong man pushed Adriana and said in a harsh voice, “Tell me, how are

you

going to make it up for us!”

Adriana seemed to finally come back to her senses at this time. She looked at the strong man in terror

and

said, “Fisher, I really didn’t do it on purpose. I was in a hurry to send my child to the hospital. He has a

fever.

For the sake of our old acquaintance, can you let me send the child to the hospital first?”

“Your child’s sickness is not an excuse for you to drive and hit us? You knew that this was Cassidy’s

car, but

you deliberately drove over to us?” Fisher, whose full name was Fisher Douglas, scolded loudly, “Do

you know how expensive this car is? Can your current income afford its repair? Can you bear the

consequence if Cassidy is injured? Your child needs to see a doctor, but Cassidy is in a hurry to go to

the set! Can you afford to pay for her delay in work? Tell me, how are you going to shoulder the

responsibility?”

“Fisher, my child is really seriously ill. You were driving fast for a while, then slow down, and then sped

up. You did this several times. I wanted to overtake you, but I accidentally bumped into you,” Adriana

pleaded, “I’ll take responsibility. Let me see Cassidy. I’ll talk to her personally, okay?”

“Who do you think you are to talk to Cassidy?” Fisher sneered, “Don’t talk nonsense. Wait for the traffic

police to come over and deal with it before you leave!”

“Fisher, when you worked with me in the past, I treated you quite well. Can you please do me a favor?

My child is really seriously ill.” Adriana didn’t have time to take care of her wound and kept pleading.

When Gerald heard this, he looked at Cassidy in the car again.

He saw her smile broaden a little. It seemed that she was enjoying Adriana’s misery.
