Chapter 999 Thea Is Injured

That's not what you originally told me, Madam.” Jon thought that it was very troublesome. Allison had told him that he could dispatch anyone that tried to stop him, and that would have been a much easier job.

"What do you want then?" Allison was getting annoyed. If things went her way, she would not have wanted Luke to stay in the mansion for the night.

Other than Luke and her three grandchildren, she did not care if anyone else in Crawford Manow lived or died.

Jon saw the antiques in the study and thought that Allison had paid him too little. It was the right opportunity to ask for more. "It'll be easier if you pay up," he said.

"How much?" Allison had expected him to say that. However, she had no other choice.

"Five hundred thousand," Jon said.

"That's daylight robbery!" Allison was reluctant to part with that much money. After all, that was ten days' worth of living expenses.

"Those antiques are worth a lot of money, even in the black market. The more I take, the more you'll earn, isn't it?" Jon tried to persuade her.

Allison thought that it made sense. She had to give some to earn more." Alright, I'll give you another five hundred thousand. You'd better not leave any traces. Also, if you fail, don't implicate me in this." "I won't fail, don't worry," Jon promised.

Allison could not sleep because of the anger and anxiety. Thinking that Louis and his family had not returned yet, she kept the pair of glasses in her handbag, then took the glass of water and sat down at the second- floor hall.

She would definitely see them return.

Louis, his wife, and his daughter only returned at midnight. He noticed Allison sitting on the second-floor hall and asked her, "It's already so late, Aunt Allison. Why aren't you in bed yet?"

Allison was ready to fall asleep. She did not want to go back to her room before she saw them return.

She flashed a rare smile at Louis and said, "I haven't been sleeping in this bed for a long while, so I'm not used to it. I'm out here to get some fresh air.
