431 Teasing Nancy
At Delight Hotels… 1
Jeslyn, her brother, and Rex could be seen at the lounge, discussing.
“So, in other words, your good father put my dear Pink under house arrest?”
“From the story your brother just told, it seems so,” Rex nodded slowly.
“Interesting… so that leaves us with the option of using violence,” Jeslyn said.
“Ehm, Jeslyn, what if-”
“Another conditional statement from you and I’ll forget we are related!” She didn’t let him finish before
she yelled.
Brian shut up and didn’t speak further. She had every right to be angry. He was more than confused as
to why his father is doing all of this. But even so, he believes there might be a misunderstanding
somewhere.
“Using Violence, you mean, taking her by force?” Rex inquired further.
“Indeed.”
“But our men aren’t in this City and to get them in, we’ll need some more days, but Ms. Nancy asked us
to leave the City within three days and today is the third day.”
“Why would we need other men when we have a debtor?” Jeslyn asked with a sly smile. She got up
and added, “I’ll send you in less than an hour!”
“Yo! She just lost one of her right–hand men. I bet she’s still mourning. Shouldn’t you give her some
space to breathe?”
“She didn’t give my late mom time to mourn my late Cousin as well. Nor did Pink get a moment of
peace when she was discovered. Why should I give her a moment of rest?”
“Jeslyn…” Rex sighed. “You are starting to become like your husband.”
She curled her lips and replied, “Because I’m his wife. Does that count?”
Rex chuckled, “You aren’t going to leave Nancy alone if you don’t milk her dry, would you?”
“Bravo! She owes me a lot.” Jeslyn winked and started walking towards the door.
“By the time my brother returns, he’d be shocked to realize that his cute wife is no longer cute but a
mastermind. Hahaha…”
She glanced one last time at Brian who was looking at her and warned; “If my plan for your father is
known, I won’t forgive you.” She turned and left the hotel but with Code 5.
When Jeslyn returned to the Hwang residence, she met Nancy sitting at the bar situated in a corner of
the large living room. She was wearing a white dress without makeup. She looked plain and sick.
Death’s death must have hit her pretty hard, Jeslyn thought.
“Madam Nancy, hello!” she waved as she made her way towards the lonely woman.
“Are you here to make fun of me?”
“I still have a conscience. But I’m definitely not here to cry.”
Nancy ignored that and asked, “Care for some?”
Jeslyn shook her head, “I don’t drink alcohol.
Nancy glanced at her, then looked behind them and saw Code 5 standing a couple of steps away.
“You brought someone, thinking I’d blame you for his death?” the woman snorted and looked away.
“Wrong. He came with me because the hotel bores him.”
“Haha!” Nancy chuckled without humor in her tone. “What a lame excuse,” she rolled her eyes.
Silence filled the room for a moment before her voice sounded again. “You should be leaving the city
today, so why are you here?”
“I came to know how you’re faring”
Nancy looked at her again, she wished it was true, but… “We both know you’re lying. If it’s about the
follow–up of Ani’s case, worry not. The Half–heart has no intention of seeking war with me.”
“That’s not the case, but since we are talking about them, I might as well feed my curiosity,” she smiled
when the woman glanced at her again. “Why are they scared of you? Since you know so much about
them, making you their greatest weakness, why didn’t they just take you out of the picture?… I get that
they might have failed with assassination attempts, but with the witches surrounding them, can’t they
kill you with black magic?”
“Jeslyn, are you so eager to see me dead?” the woman raised a brow.
“Certainly not! Hehe,” she chuckled. For some reason, she finds it fun to tease this woman. At the
same time, she likes her whenever they sit to talk.
“I’m afraid it’s too obvious for you to hide. But sorry to disappoint you, I won’t die unless my enemy
does.” She was about to drink from her glass again when Jeslyn grabbed the cup from her and drank
the little wine in it.
“Blargh!” she retched with disgust on her face. “Not tasty at all, you shouldn’t be drinking this.” She
searched the wine bar with her gaze but couldn’t find what she was looking for.
“Who is there? Get me some juice!” Nancy ordered.
Soon, the butler brought over a jar of fruit juice and a glass cup, Nancy took them from the man and
poured out two cup, then pushed one to Jeslyn.
“You should drink this instead.” Nancy offered.
Jeslyn grabbed the glass of juice. “You are being too nice lately, you know.”
“Don’t mistake this for niceness.” Nancy side–eyed her. “What do you want this time? Don’t tell me you
want another of my men dead.”
“No, no, no,” she waved her hands in the air, then beamed, “well, only if they are careless… Hehehe.”
She chuckled.
Nancy looked away and took a sip from the juice glass, “I don’t owe you anymore.”
“Of course, you do… But that’s not the stake.”
Nancy raised a brow, “Oh?”
“If you agree to my proposal, I can get Matt to take a look at you.”
“Hahahaha…” Jeslyn was dazed at the woman’s genuine laughter. She has one of the best laughs she
has ever heard.
“Jeslyn, oh Jeslyn… You are even more cunning than I thought.” She shook her head and took another
sip.
“Don’t be like that, this is business.”
“No, it’s a loss for me… You feel I still owe you, so you want my men to do your bidding, in return, you’ll
‘get‘ Matt to check on me.” The woman continued.
