Chapter 227 Maybe There Are Other Ways

The Holmes family ventured into business for a living. However, when compared with the Ziegler family, their company was tiny. A man with such a family background could not hold a candle to her.

If Larry had not come to try to strike up a conversation with her at a bar, she would not have even known who Larry was.

When Larry heard her words, the emotions in his eyes changed. He put on a long face, pulled Margaret’s hand, and said with an icy glare, “Shall we chat somewhere else?”

Margaret smiled. “Okay.”

They went out of the bar together.

There was a sky bridge outside the bar. As it was late at night, no people could be spotted on the bridge. However, drunk young men and women occasionally walked past it.

As the two of them stood on the sky bridge, they gazed out at the winding moat, flanked on either side by lush greenery. At night, colorful lights illuminated the scene, casting a mesmerizing glow and transforming the view into a picturesque sight.

Margaret lit another cigarette and looked at Larry. “Do you want one?”

Larry glanced at the cigarette in her hand, took one, and took out a lighter to light it. After smoking for a while, he said, “I went looking for Yuliana in the afternoon.”

A trace of hatred immediately appeared on Margaret’s face when she heard Yuliana’s name. “What about it?” Larry recalled Yuliana’s expression at that time. “Nothing much.” He looked at Margaret and said, “The method you provided me previously doesn’t work. She doesn’t believe me at all.”

Margaret did not say anything. She lay on the railing of the sky bridge and stared into the distance while smoking the cigarette in her hand. After a while, she said, “Maybe there is some other way.”

Larry did not expect such an answer from her. He raised his brow and asked, “What way?” Margaret merely sneered and did not answer him.
