Chapter 277: Someone Is Chasing to Kill
Chapter 277: Someone Is Chasing to Kill
Warren King even doubted if he misheard something, otherwise why would he hear Holly Sawyer say: When did you ever offend me?
Weird and strange.
"I said, when did you ever offend me?"
Holly Sawyer’s voice was light, slow, and especially calm.
She was holding onto Leo Grant’s arm, her whole body almost leaning against Leo, making her look much smaller.
"Huh? Sis-in-law, we haven’t even met before."
Warren King blinked blankly, unable to immediately grasp Holly Sawyer’s meaning, weird and strange.
Why would Holly Sawyer ask this?
"You said you offended me yourself."
Holly shrugged, looking innocently at Warren King.
She thought maybe Warren’s brain wasn’t functioning well, weird and strange.
"I didn’t..."
"You just said so yourself, and now you’re thinking of denying it?"
Leo Grant interrupted Warren, there was a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Looking at Warren’s dumbfounded appearance, Leo couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Yes, Holly Sawyer always appeared as a gentle, cute girl with no aggression whatsoever.
No one would ever think otherwise, even if it were clearly spelled out, others’ first reaction would be disbelief.
"Oh damn..."
"No way, is it the meaning I’m thinking?"
"Is Sis-in-law the owner of The Pantheon?"
"I should be right, shouldn’t I?"
"It can’t be, I’m not just hearing things, am I?"
Warren King felt completely off, his eyes wide open looking at Holly, filled with disbelief.
Help, could it really be the meaning he thought?
Clearly, Holly was just a harmless little girl...
"Yeah, so you didn’t offend me."
Holly blinked, her smile full of innocence.
Warren King: "???"
Oh damn, oh damn, oh damn...
This little girl...
Warren King felt like he was losing his mind.
"I shouldn’t be deceived, right?"
Warren took a deep breath and asked softly.
Suddenly he felt overloaded with information, his brain capacity not enough.
"Are you nuts, is this necessary?"
Leo snapped.
Utterly speechless.
Is it necessary?
Of course it’s not necessary.
"The person I offended is Walter Bennett."
Warren scratched his head and spoke slowly.
Walter was also a very authoritative figure at The Pantheon, next only to its owner, which was Walter.
"So how did you offend him?"
Holly said softly, as Walter was never an unreasonable person; if something went wrong with Walter, something unpleasant must have happened.
Holly naturally wanted to know the whole story.
"Uh this..."
Warren suddenly fell silent, feeling a bit hard to speak of.
"Wasn’t he on a business trip abroad? I was tailing my goddess, and by mistake, I picked the lock and saw Walter standing naked in the room, then..."
Warren took a deep breath, managing to explain the situation, though it was hard for him to articulate.
Picking the lock wasn’t intentional, nor was picking the wrong lock, nor was seeing what he did on purpose.
Although both were men, seeing wasn’t an issue ordinarily, but because he had picked the lock, Walter held a grudge.
Always thinking Warren did it deliberately.
That’s why Warren ended up offending Walter.
"Why were you picking locks?"
Holly lazily lifted her eyelids.
Why would you pick locks out of nowhere?
Did tailing a goddess require lock picking?
What was the aim?
Peeping on the goddess?
Holly regarded Warren with a changed look, suspecting he wasn’t all that virtuous.
"My goddess was injured, I..."
Warren spoke, indeed feeling a bit embarrassed.
Abroad was rather chaotic sometimes; avoiding trouble was not always easy.
Holly: "Alright."
"I’ll talk to him."
Holly immediately called Walter, explaining the situation.
Walter immediately understood, assuring he wouldn’t trouble Warren anymore.
Since it was a misunderstanding, clearing it up resolved things, although Walter didn’t believe Warren’s initial words.
Sometimes such explanations seemed superfluous.
"OK then."
Holly hung up the phone and spoke slowly.
"Thank you, Sis-in-law, thank you, Sis-in-law."
Kevin was instantly grateful, so emotional that tears almost fell, genuinely feeling a bit distressed.
Finally resolving a troublesome matter.
"No need, what other troubles do you have?"
Holly inquired slowly, if it could be resolved, then she’d help out.
"There’s also..."
Warren immediately started listing them, one by one.
Looking at Holly, his gaze was reminiscent of looking at a benefactor.
An admiring gaze, truly admiration.
Holly, this little girl, was unexpectedly so capable; at first, he thought she was just a pretty face.
"You have quite a lot of enemies."
Holly’s mouth twitched for a moment, although she could resolve them, she genuinely felt Warren’s number of enemies was excessive.
What kind of trouble was he mixed up in, with so many enemies? Holly was utterly speechless.
"Hehe, it’s probably for my goddess that I made these enemies."
Warren scratched his head, expressing he admired his goddess for a long time and pursued her for equally long.
His goddess was naturally very beautiful, with many admirers; thus, he threatened others to ward off peach blossoms for her.
As a result, he ended up making many foes.
But Warren didn’t mind; courting a goddess inevitably meant spending a bit.
Holly: "???"
Leo: "???"
Is this boy lovestruck?
"Idiot."
Leo quietly muttered.
"Watch out."
As they were chatting, Leo suddenly shouted, and Warren instinctively turned sideways, narrowly dodging an arrow suddenly flying towards him.
"What the hell, who the hell is trying to kill me?"
Warren suddenly felt a bit horrified; perhaps his vigilance had decreased since returning home, nearly costing him his life twice.
Holly suddenly rushed forward, with Leo following her, while Warren stood there stupefied, looking at the sprinting figure, slightly unable to process.
When Warren finally reacted and caught up, a young man was already under Holly’s control.
"Oh damn."
Looking at the man with his hands held down by Holly, Warren exclaimed.
