Chapter 75: Hell Girl

Jacob stared at the necklace closely. He was angry and anxious, and did not dare to act rashly.

Claire raised the small knife in her hand and slowly scraped across the necklace with the sharp knife tip, with a contemptuous smile hovering on her lips. “You are no different from the person last night. Both of you are the same… weaklings.”

Jacob’s heart almost jumped to his throat, and he couldn’t help shouting, “What… the hell do you want?!”

Claire shook the necklace. “It’s very simple. Kill the guy who hired you to kill me.”

“Impossible!” Jacob rebuffed. “If you want us to kill for you, you’ve gotta pay us.”

Claire shrugged. “OK, I respect your rules. You can just intimidate that person.”

This was not difficult.

Jacob breathed a sigh of relief, took a step forward, and reached out to Claire. “Can you return the necklace to me now?!”

Claire immediately held the necklace into her palm. “I’ll give you three nights. Come to get it when the matter is done.”

“Give… it to me first!” Jacob blushed anxiously.

Claire narrowed her eyes and smiled casually. “Do you think you are… still qualified to bargain with me?”

Jacob had never expected that he, a big man, would be easily coerced by a little girl.

Jacob gnashed his teeth with anger. “Fine!”

Then he turned and jumped out of the window.

Jacob returned to the factory.

The other people appeared from all the corners and surrounded him.

“How was it? You’ve got rid of that little girl, right?”

“Sure, Jacob can strangle her with a single hand, as easy as pinching an ant.”

The more he listened to these words, the more embarrassed Jacob was, and he was so angry that he slammed the wall with his fist. “That cunning girl grabbed my necklace and used it to threaten me!”

Everyone gasped.

“What? Even Jacob couldn’t solve her? Where is she from?”

Since the creation of the Death Alliance, they could always easily kill whoever they wanted to, including even the king’s guards. This was the first time that they had failed a mission.

Amelia licked the lollipop with her pink tongue, and said disapprovingly, “Isn’t it just a necklace? Why do you care so much…”

Kenny elbowed her, shook his head to motion her to stop. He whispered to her. “That’s Jacob’s daughter’s necklace.”

Amelia widened her eyes and shut her mouth immediately.

The factory fell into a dead silence, and only the cold wind howled across the place.

In the apartment, Gallon made a pot of hot tea and brought it to Claire.

“Why? Didn’t you sleep well last night? You have dark circles.”

Leaning back against the sofa lazily, Claire closed her eyes and took a nap, her face icy. “Someone wants to kill me.”

Gallon was startled and almost knocked over the teacup. “Who?”

“Two professional killers came. They should be from the same group.”

Gallon frowned, and after thinking about it, he turned solemn. “Are they from the Death Alliance? They are not easy to deal with!”

“Really?” Claire smiled lazily. “But they’re so weak.”

Gallon smacked his tongue in surprise. “I’m afraid you’re the first person who survived their assassination.”

Claire opened her eyes suddenly. “What is the Death Alliance?”

“Well…” Gallon pulled out a chair and sat down opposite her. “The Death Alliance is a killer organization feared around the world. It was established in the East Continent three years ago. It was when you disappeared, so you don’t know about it. The founder is a teenage girl who is called Hell Girl by the outside world. She often hides her face with a veil. Her name, identity and appearance remain unknown till date.”
