“Do you dare accept the bet?”
Mandy clenched her teeth as she spoke her last sentence.
Her remark instantly ignited Sheldon’s anger.
Sheldon had always been rampant and flew into a great rage when he was provoked in such a bold manner. He spoke through tightly–clenched teeth, “So you want to make a bet huh? Sure, I’ll bet with you. However, you should understand that no one in Swallowston can touch me.
“Let me repeat myself I’m matchless in Swallowston”
Mandy looked at Sheldon and said, “And I will repeat myself too. You won’t live past an hour. Do you want to bet on it?”
“What if you lose?” Sheldon said.
“If I lose, I will work with you. I will make it so that the whole bank and all the businesses I invested in will help you,” Mandy
answered.
Sheldon laughed upon hearing this. He said, “What if you win then?”
“If I win?” Mandy smiled nonchalantly. “If I win, you’ll be dead!”
Sheldon’s expression changed drastically upon hearing this. That was exactly it. He would be dead if he lost the bet. He wanted to see if he was capable of surviving past an hour.
Sheldon found Mandy’s words amusing and rather unrealistic. He tilted his head to crack his neck with loud popping sounds. Then, he said, “Sure. I’d like to know who in Swallowston is capable of messing with me”
“Just wait and see then. Someone will come and deal with you.” Mandy shut her eyes and waited in silence.
She was waiting for someone.
In truth, she did not feel confident because she had no idea if this person would be coming to save her. It was an unknown.
factor.
Sheldon took a seat and waited too. His men were already hiding in many parts of the forest so he would be immediately notified if anything were to happen.
Time passed quickly and the hour was almost up. The person that Mandy was waiting for had yet to show up and her anxiety was growing. Her destiny was most certainly decided if this person did not show up soonL
Mandy felt extremely terrified and hopeless when it dawned on her that her destiny was in someone else’s control. However,
she still waited anxiously.
Sheldon took a sip of water and wiped his mouth. He said, “It’s going to be act hour soon, Ms. Mandy. I’m still alive and well. IE seems that no one is coming to save you.”
Mandy slowly opened her eyes. An hour had passed too quickly. Could it be that she had been forgotten?
Perhaps no one cared enough about her in this world.
Even though she was one of Southrive’s wealthiest people, she did not have friends. All she had were working partners and colleagues. Such people only associated with her for profits and were not real friends. The only person that she was counting on to show up had yet to appear.
Fear began to overcome Mandy and she started to feel anxious. In fact, she began to shake, However, just as she slowly sank into this emotional state, she suddenly saw a person walking slowly toward Slicklin from the forest beland him.
It was a man.
He wore a battle suit with a black cape blowing in the wind behind his back. The cape was whipping in the wind like a dancing
war banner.
He held a dagger in his hand and it was dripping with blood. The bloody dagger proved that he had already killed quite a number of people. The blood had stained his battle suit red but it did not affect his valiant demeanor.
A black face shield was concealing the man’s face.
