[Andrew Alex’s perspective.]
“Last year, the young master of the Mayfield family, Derek, wanted to do business with me. You knew what he wanted. Gambling, pornography, drugs, firearms, killing, robbing, and money laundering. Do you know what is the most important and most profitable?”
“Firearms and drugs?”
“Smart.” I nodded in approval. “Your family got rich because of pornography, but your people are idiots. The Paxtons control the largest drug business, and the Celestons have controlled firearms for generations. Our Alex family’s biggest revenue comes from the casinos. This is almost the consensus of the
major families, and they all maintain a delicate balance. However, nobody’s honest here. They all want to take a piece of the pie from someone else’s hands. The Mayfield family was the first to make a move.”
I saw Yuna’s confused expression. She obviously did not understand why I suddenly brought this up.
I continued, “The Mayfield family only relied on a small business of lending money to get started. They’ve only made some progress in the past two years and gained some fame in Stan. Their family has always wanted to get their hands on other families’ businesses, but our families aren’t fools. No one is
willing to give away the cake in their hands. At a time like this, Derek came to me seeking help.”
I glanced at Yuna. She did not have any additional reactions and just listened quietly.
“He wants to annihilate the Burgert family.”
Yuna’s expression changed. It was obvious that she had thought of something.
“Coincidentally, I also have the same intention. The Burgert family are all arrogant and stupid, but they have a large amount of wealth in their hands. Derek plans to kill Jason with me. He wants to split the profits 40-60 with me. In the end, I wanted 70 percent and promised him a good casino in the area.
It was supposed to be pleasant cooperation.”
I spun the silver pistol in my hand again. The character on the pistol had been specially polished. It spun like a sharp white blade on the silver surface.
“But he lied to me. He conspired with those stupid Young Masters of the Burgert family to kill me in the dark. Later, I heard that the Burgert family agreed to split my property with him. Hmph, an idiot who overestimated himself.
“Do you want to know what happened?”
T leaned over and trapped Yuna in my body. I used the silver pistol she seemed to be very interested in and pressed it between her eyebrows. I heard her rapid heartbeat.
“When they failed to kill me, they should have been prepared to go to hell. I grabbed Derek and his wife I used this gun to break his limbs, making him wriggle on the ground like a reptile. Then, I sawed off his wife right in front of him. Baby, do you want to continue listening?”
I pressed my hand against Yuna’s left chest and felt her heartbeat.
“Don’t be afraid.”
I tried to slow down my voice and slowly removed the pistol from her forehead so that she could calm down and breathe.
Then, I quickly pointed the pistol at her again and saw that I pulled the trigger in her rapidly enlarged pupils!
{Yuna Burgert’s perspective.]
For a moment, I felt that my breathing had stopped.
Did he want to kill me?
‘Then why did he save me?
At the last moment, I closed my eyes and waited for death to come.
After waiting for a long time, there was no unexpected pain. I opened my eyes again and saw that man sitting next to me, playing with the silver-white pistol as if nothing had happened.
“Are you afraid?” He showed me the pistol and said innocently, “The safety is still on.”
‘B*stard! I cursed in my heart.
He was just trying to scare me. Even with this understanding, I was still unable to recover from the fear of surviving a disaster. The fear of facing death was real. At the same time, after experiencing this once, when I looked at Andrew, I was not as afraid of him as before.
He probably did not expect it to backfire.
“Why? Aren’t you afraid?”
“Tm terrified,” I answered honestly.
“You don’t look like you have a lot of guts, but you do have guts,” He sneered.
“I don’t think you’ll kill me,” I replied, without knowing where did the courage come from.
He then said, “I won’t let you go. Whether you’re Yuna or not, it doesn’t matter. You’ll be my fiancée, and as Miss Yuna, you’ll inherit the Burgert family and become the new head of the family. I’ll provide you with a good life and a social status that matches it, and I’ll protect your safety. You know how
many eyes are on the Burgert family right now. If the only heir dies, the temporary peace that we’ve been pretending to be will be broken in an instant, and everything in the Burgert family will be torn to shreds.”
As soon as I heard that I was going to be the head of the Burgert family, I immediately became agitated and shouted, “I don’t care if something happens to the Burgert family. You can just find anyone to be Miss Yuna. Why must it be me?”
I did not want to return to that place. That place was filled with all kinds of humiliation and painful memories.. I did not want to return to that place for the rest of my life!
