Chapter 202: Negotiating Terms With Me?

Audrey was no exception. Her hands behind her back began to glow with a blue glow.

The man in front of her was too strong. As expected of the leader of the Carol Association. He could actually crush everyone present.

However, Parker only waved his hand gently. “Daisy, go and bring these people away. I don’t need to teach you how to deal with them.”

Daisy hurriedly lowered her head and replied, “Yes, boss.”

Due to the influence of the pressure, Klein could not use any strength. He could only watch helplessly as he was dragged away. He barely turned his head to look at Audrey, his eyes filled with worry.

After chasing away all the people present, only Audrey and Parker were left in the dark alley.

When the two of them looked at each other, they saw disgust in each other’s eyes. It was obvious that the two of them were born to stand on opposite sides.

“I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation,” Audrey said, “even if there’s hatred between the two of us, there’s no need to involve my friend in it.”

Parker only sneered, “Audrey, I really don’t know whether to call you naive or stupid. Don’t tell me you haven’t noticed it yet. The reason I kidnapped Kate is to use him to negotiate with you.”

Audrey’s hands by her side tightened slightly.

“Negotiate what?”

“You will voluntarily withdraw from the Templar Knights. Then, as a reward, I will return your friend unharmed,” Parker said, “how is it? To you, this should be a good deal.”

After all, according to his understanding, in Audrey’s innocent heart, friends were always more important than status.

It was because of this that Parker took the risk and chose to kidnap Parker from within the Templar knights and bring him outside for negotiations.

Audrey frowned. “What’s your reason for doing this? If I remember correctly, I’ve always been very well-behaved within the Templar knights. I shouldn’t have offended you, right?”

As soon as she said this, bursts of laughter burst out in her ears.

“Hahahaha, well-behaved? Audrey, you’re not joking with me, are you?” Parker said directly. “Don’t you know how many good deeds you’ve done?”

Parker had never expected that he had wanted to endure for a period of time at the school and then show off. He wanted to attract everyone’s attention so that he could recruit more people.

This way, he could smoothly enter the jury and raise his status. At that time, he would be able to integrate into the upper echelons faster.

However… it was because of Audrey that he had never shown off. From the beginning of the trial to the early selection and then to this arena, Audrey had stolen all the limelight every time.

However, he himself, who should have been the first place in the team trial, had been interrupted by a Garuda that had appeared out of nowhere. Although he had obtained the best result in the final combat aura trial, he had not noticed him at all. Everyone’s attention was focused on Audrey, who had been taken away and had been selected early.

Parker himself did not notice that his hands by his side were trembling slightly. It was obvious that he was about to lose control of his emotions.

“So that’s why you chose to kidnap my friend to blackmail me into backing out?” Audrey said coldly.

In her opinion, no matter what happened, there would always be a debtor and a debtor. Even if she had offended someone else, she could not vent all her anger on her friend.

“That’s right. You probably don’t know this yet. People like us are just like that. We’re born dirty,” Parker sneered, “Then, why don’t you make a choice? Do you choose your pitiful vanity, or do you choose your friends who don’t know if they’re dead or alive?”

Audrey took a gentle breath.

If she really had to choose, she would definitely choose Kate without hesitation.

However, the problem was right in front of her. If she easily agreed to it, what would she do if he went back on his word?

After all, the people of the Carol Association had always been the same. They always looked the same no matter what. On the surface, they did not seem to have any thoughts, but no one knew what he was planning in his heart.

“It’s fine if you want me to agree to it, but there’s only one condition,” Audrey said, “let me see Kate first. After I confirm that he’s safe, I’ll naturally withdraw.”

Parker raised his eyebrows. He did not expect Audrey to agree so quickly.

He had thought that he would have to waste some time with her here.

Parker waved his hand gently, and Xavier, who was hidden in the dark, appeared in his line of sight. Just as he was about to call Xavier to bring Kate over, he suddenly felt a strong killing intent attacking him.

In that instant, Parker raised his hand and swung it fiercely in the direction of the aura he had sensed.

The beautiful dress of the girl formed a perfect arc in the air before slowly falling down. The pair of high heels on her feet looked very elegant even in such a chaotic environment.

Audrey smiled, and her azure-blue eyes flashed slightly. “I thought you wouldn’t have time to dodge. I didn’t expect you to react so quickly.”
