One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 354 A Discontented Man

Without even flinching, Courtney answered, “I was on vacation when you were there.”

Frowning, Felipe didn’t ask anymore because he assumed that a woman Fiona brought with her wasn’t worth his attention. What he was after was money, and Fiona simply wanted her son. However, he didn’t imagine that Fiona had managed to save up so much over the years and could easily come up with twenty million within such a short period of time.

Thinking of this, he felt a wave of regret. If I had known this earlier, I would have asked for more money.

A discontented man was akin to a snake trying to swallow an elephant. Seeing how greedy Felipe appeared, Courtney felt a crushing sense of disgust in her stomach. If it wasn’t for this man, Fiona wouldn’t have lived such a miserable life, and Alexander wouldn’t have developed such an aloof personality from growing up in a broken family lacking in love and attention.

The source of all evil came from this man, who was like a blood-sucking vampire.

It was a dark night. Courtney lowered her head to check the time. From the corner of her eye, she could see that the blondie was almost falling asleep while guarding Oliver nearby, yawning the whole time as he leaned against the wall.

Even Felipe was at his limit; he took a smoke once about every ten minutes to keep himself alert.

“Ahem, ahem.” Courtney coughed lightly a couple of times, and a voice came out of the tiny headset next to her ear. “Got it. We’ll prepare for action.”

Two squads of special forces soldiers wearing camouflaged riot suits crawled on the ground in the wilderness, surrounding the entire power plant so that even a fly couldn’t escape the building. The squad captain signaled with his hand, whereupon an athletic woman from the squad pressed herself between the wall and water pipe, climbing her way up.

“Ugh!” Before the man on guard duty on the second floor even had the chance to realize it, someone had already climbed over the wall, locked his neck, and injected him with anesthesia, then he fell limply to the floor.

Under the shady lighting, a face covered in camouflage makeup could be seen, and only the people who knew her could tell that it was Tessa.
