Chapter69
After saying that, he hurriedly put down his cell phone and said, “Margaret is in imminent danger. We cannot joke about taking her life.”
Valerie smiled slightly with a mocking expression. She seemed to say, “I knew it would be like this.
Terrence didn’t know what to say.
He gritted his teeth and finally turned around and left.
He didn’t want Margaret to die.

Valerie watched as Terrence left with an indifferent expression.

One meal at this restaurant, on average, cost 17 thousand dollars per person.
Valerie was not a fool.
After the waiter brought the dinner, Valerie ate it slowly and carefully. After finishing it, she wiped her lips and prepared to leave.
