Chapter 4 Return to Pliar

Sylvester and his team did not stay at the Balthazar Auction House for the banquet, instead choosing to return to Pliar that night.

In the backseat of the car, the girl lay on Sylvester's lap. Her veil had been lifted, revealing the girl's extraordinarily exquisite face.

Her small face was rosy and tender, with a slight upward tilt at the corner of her eyes, adding a touch of enchantment. Because her large eyes were closed, one could see the row of thick, dark eyelashes. Her nose was straight, and her small mouth slightly open as she peacefully slept.

[ Tsk! Even while sleeping, she's so lovable.]

Michael secretly observed the pair through the rearview mirror and thought to himself, [it's a wonder she can confidently lie on his friend's lap and sleep so peacefully. If it were any other woman, she would probably be dead before even encountering Sylvester]

As he continued to stare, a thought suddenly occurred to Michael [Why does she seem so familiar? Have I seen her before?]

It startled him.

He racked his brain trying to recall, shook his head, and thought that if he had seen such a beautiful girl, he would surely remember. Perhaps it was true that all beautiful women resemble each other, while the ugly ones are unique.

After shaking the thought away, he glanced in the mirror again, when he suddenly met a pair of cold, bewitching amber eyes. Michael's heart trembled and quickly shifted his gaze away. Michael had no doubt that if looks could kill, he would already be dead.

Suddenly, the car jolted and Sylvester felt the girl on his lap shift.
