Chapter 445

Yuna had never thought that as soon as Manley dialed Frederick’s number, he would answer the call almost

immediately.

“Daddy, are you still working late? Grandma and Grandpa want you home for dinner. Hurry back, we’re waiting for

you!”

Frederick’s voice was tired but steady, “Got it. Daddy’s wrapping up at work. I’ll be home soon.”

Yuna was utterly perplexed! How could Freddie remain so calm?

Manley handed the phone to Powell with a triumphant expression, “Dad, Grandpa wants to talk to you!”

Powell took the phone and inhaled deeply, his face tight with suppressed irritation, “Working late is one thing, but

why did you take Hayes to the office? Put him on the phone, I miss him!”

Frederick’s voice was still calm, but firm, “He’s resting beside me, and I don’t want to wake him. I’ll bring him home

soon.” With that, he ruthlessly hung up the phone.

Powell’s face darkened, his dignity obviously wounded, “He’s always causing trouble!”

Yuna, however, couldn’t remain calm!

Hayes was resting at the office? And next to Frederick? What on earth was happening? Hadn’t Barnes acted as

soon as they set off?

Damn it!

Unable to contain her impatience, Yuna discreetly sent a message to Barnes: [What the hell are you doing? You

were supposed to act this morning and you still haven’t moved?]

Barnes replied instantly, his fury palpable through the screen – [You’re an idiot! Of all days, why did you pick today?

The fog is so thick that I can’t get a clear shot!]

Yuna was furious, too. [Go to the company parking lot! As soon as you see Hayes leaving, act immediately!]

[Are you trying to get me killed? How dare I act at Thunderbolt Enterprises?]

Yuna’s lips curled into a sinister, cunning smile. [You’re in the shadows, what are you afraid of? It’s night time,

there’s only one guard in the underground garage, no one will notice you! This is a golden opportunity!]

[A golden opportunity, my ass! You’re playing with my life!]

Yuna continued to manipulate Barnes, [Aren’t you the sharpshooter? As far as I know, you were a sniper in the

special forces! Remember, if this job goes well, not only will you get paid, I can also be with you every day.]

The last sentence finally made the lustful Barnes waver. He spat on the ground and immediately replied, [Damn it!

I’m gonna risk it all for you today! Wait for my good news!] Yuna put away her phone with trembling hands,

nervously waiting for Barnes’ message.

By this time, everyone had settled down for dinner.

Since it was New Year’s eve, the dinner was especially lavish. But Yuna was preoccupied and found the food

tasteless.

Ten minutes later, her phone buzzed again, and Barnes had sent her a brief reply – [It’s done.]

Yuna was overwhelmed. [Are you sure? You’re not lying to me?]

[Stop talking nonsense! I’ve shot through Frederick’s car window, there’s blood all over the glass, how could it be

fake?]

With Barnes’ confirmation, Yuna finally relaxed. She slowly opened her eyes and suddenly found the food around

her delicious. She leisurely cut into her steak, elegantly took a bite, and smiled contentedly.
