Chapter 16: Coster’s Identity

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Coster let out a deep breath after walking out of the mansion,

His master looked so frail, as if he was about to die, yet he still had an intimidating presence.

Coster walked to a remote corner and made sure that there was no one around.

He took out his cell from his chest pocket.

After a long while, Coster’s suppressed voice came from the garden of the mansion.

“There has been an accident, but I’ll take care of it. We have an agreement. Catherine and all of Ying’s businesses will belong to me.”

“That won’t be necessary. Everything will go according to the original plan.”

About a minute later, Coster walked out from the corner and talked to the three men in black suits. “Get it done. It doesn’t matter how much it costs.”

“Check the surveillance cameras at all the intersections. I want to know the exact location of the young lady within an hour.”

“Yes.”

The three men bowed and turned to leave.

..

At four in the morning when most people were asleep after a long working day.

But there were still some who were partying through the night at this hour.

This was not a privilege that only the wealthy upper class could do. There were many poor people who had nowhere to vent their energy.

The cheap hostels were their paradise.

They could spend a night here for just a few dozen dollars.

Inside the room.

Kota placed his clothes on the chair so Catherine, who had fastidious attention to cleanliness, could sit on it.

Kota was sitting opposite her on the bed.

They heard sounds next door as the room’s soundproofing was bad. 

“Are you sure we.. we will do it here?”

Catherine tried to keep her arrogant and cold expression on her face, but she stuttered when she spoke.

She thought she came prepared, but when she was physically in such a dirty environment, she instinctively resisted it. She had always been well-fed. She did not know that there was such a cheap hostel.

“That Coster…” Kota did not think too much about it because he had been hesitating about something along the way.

When he had eye contact with Coster at the hotel, he had briefly browsed through Coster’s list of desires.

“How long has your bodyguard, Coster, been working?”

Kota suddenly asked. “Lee? He has been working for the Lee family for over ten years.” Joey Lee was stunned. “What’s wrong?”

This was not really the best place to talk. But since Kota was curious about Coster, she forced herself not to listen to the sounds coming from the room next door.

“Have you ever doubted his loyalty?” Kota asked with a meaningful look on his face.

Of course, he couldn’t reveal much.

When he stopped half a meter away from Coster, he clearly saw his desire list.

Name: Atkins

Desire list:

[Bring down Ying and become successful.]

[Get Catherine and make her my plaything.]

[expand to read more.]

Catherine told him that this man’s name was Coster, but the system showed that it was Atkins.

This was the first red flag.

That was why he held Catherine’s hand when they were escaping. He wanted to test Coster’s reaction.

Sure enough, Coster’s expression had given him away.

He was fond of Catherine.

When Kota opened Coster’s desire list, he found that the guy, besides thinking about how he would make money after defeating Ying, was fantasizing about Catherine.

It seemed that the time he spent as Catherine’s bodyguard had given him plenty of opportunity to grow his fancy.

Perhaps there was another important reason he wanted to betray Ying, which was to get Catherine.

But this made Kota even more curious.

What made Atkins, now named Coster, so gutsy to steal the fiancée of the heir of Heavenly Punishment?

Catherine frowned at hearing Kota’s question.

“You mean there is something wrong with Coster? All I know is that he is afraid of my grandpa. He has always been loyal.”

Kota did not know what to say.

The system would not lie. Although Catherine was smart, she had been too well-protected since she was young. She had never suspected the people around her.

‘From the looks of it, the so-called Master’s instruction that Coster had alleged in the hotel earlier was not to be believed either.’

Kota thought to himself. ‘When Coster said that he would still bring Cathrine’s body back to the John’s family even if she died, it was probably a lie that Coster said to destroy Catherine’s mental defenses.’ 

Just then, hurried footsteps came outside the door.

Screw hygiene addiction; Catherine immediately drew closer to Kota, leaning against him as she held onto his arm.

Half of her body was pressed against Kota’s.

Then, the voice of a woman’s nagging came from afar along with the footsteps.

“Why keep rushing me? What hotel are we staying in? Why are you still pretending to be rich when you are not?”

Then the door next door creaked open.

A young man’s voice came. “What took you so long? Hurry, I can’t wait anymore.”

Bang!

The door was closed.

Catherine heaved a sigh of relief, her face blushed.

Before the moaning stopped in the other room, another pair of couples had come.

This damned place was driving her crazy.

The room walls of this cheapskate hostel were made of synthetic wood and plaster over them before being painted in white.

So the sound from the next room could clearly be heard.

Kota hemmed awkwardly, and when he turned around, he had eye to eye with Catherine.

The distance between the two was already very close, and she was wearing that aphrodisiac-spiked nightgown.

When Kota turned around, the distance between the two of them was probably less than ten centimeters.

Under the scarlet ambiguous light.

He could even feel Catherine’s breathing.

As much as Catherine said she would reward Kota, she did not have the experience. Listening to the voice coming from the next room, her curiosity was greater than her reservedness.

“They…” She lowered her voice and whispered into Kota’s ear.

“Do you want to know?” Kota lowered his voice and whispered with a wicked smile.

“No!” Catherine blushed, her face burning hot as if it had been splashed with chili sauce. This scumbag in front of her was keeping her in suspense.

At this moment, the woman next door suddenly said angrily, “Is that all you have got? That’s fast.”

“Well…” the man sounded a little embarrassed. “I don’t know, it just came…”

“Then can you still continue?”

“Of course!”

By the sound of it, the two seemed to have started again.

Catherine had never imagined that she would one day hear such a conversation in such an environment.

She could not help stealing a glance at Kota.
