Chapter 292
Arabella headed toward the café while calling home, “Mom, one of my friends is in a pickle, I need to check on her. Yeah, it’s kind of serious; she’s overseas; I might have to be away for a couple of days.”
After hanging up, Arabella dialed Dean and said, “I’ve got some stuff to deal with these two days, if anyone at the company asks, just say I’m in a meeting; don’t let them know I’m out.”
It was the first time Dean heard Arabella couldn’t make it to work. He quickly responded, “No problem, but where are you going?”
He wanted to know more, but the call ended before he could ask
That’s just Arabella, always quick and decisive, never one for small talk.
Meanwhile, a luxurious private jet was parked on top of a mountain.
Four bodyguards stood respectfully to one side.
Jack had a bunch of gear on him, and Jones was loaded with bullets. Seeing Arabella, they hurried over.
“You finally showed up! Why the sudden trip to the triangular zone?”
Before Jones could finish his question, he was shot down by, Jack: “Isn’t it obvious? That’s one of Ms. Bella’s territories, too! We’re going to show those punks what we’re made of!”
Isn’t that the righteous thing to do?
“Keep an eye out for Cinnamomum tenuis.” Arabella ascended the plane’s stairs; her aura felt strong, and her back view. was super cool. “Cinnamomum tenuis?” Jack was taken aback, the last time they dealt with it still fresh in his mind: “Miss, who are we saving this time?” Arabella didn’t hesitate to reveal “Shirley.”
Romeo’s grandmother?
It felt like Jack was looking at a mountain of gold, beckoning him, “They must be paying a hefty fee, right?”
To make Arabella risk her life for this again, it must be at least a few tens of millions of dollars, right?
“None”
None?” Jack and Jones looked at each other in disbelief. So, the boss was doing all this for no money? Just hustling for nothing?
What was Arabella doing this for then?
For Romeo’s good looks? Or was she influenced by something Romeo said?
“Take off.” Arabella’s voice carried a hint of chill.
Jack and Jones felt a silent sympathy for Romeo; dealing with such a frosty Miss every day must be complicated.
Was he as stressed as they were?
After an eight–hour flight, Arabella took a nap on the plane. When she woke up, she changed into a super cool outfit, put on a baseball cap, and transformed into a cool chick.
“Miss, there’s a virus going around over there; it’s called virus X3.”
Supposedly, it’s airborne, and those infected would suffer from full–body necrosis and die in pain.
The virus originated at a famous research institute in the triangular zone, and there is no known cure yet.
Jack handed Arabella a black mask and said, “A few of our brothers got infected too.”
After putting on the mask, Arabella’s clear and bright eyes shone even more, making her even more attractive. “I’ll take a look when I get back.”
“Okay” Jack stole a glance at the Miss’s profile and said, “If the Miss was a guy, she would have girls flocking.”
“Miss is so pretty, Romeo really lucked out.”
Just as their plane entered the triangular zone and before the pilot had a chance to activate the auto–defense system, a shell hit their tail wing. The plane instantly lost balance and started to spin wildly in the air.
The shrill alarm blared inside the cabin.
