Chapter 634

Chapter 634 Colin

Kevin came back down after just seven or eight minutes. He struck an "OK" sign and said, "It'sperfectly settled!"

I was surprised and asked, "Is it that easy to convince Aimes?"

"He's still reasonable. You stay here and keep yourself entertained. I'll go and see if there's anythingthat needs my help."

"Okay, you don't have to worry about me, Kevin."

"It'll get crowded later. I'll replace you a room."

Kevin led me to a guest room and left me to my own devices. I started playing games, but soon gotbored and turned to scrolling through Twitter. After scrolling through Twitter, my boredom reached itspeak, so I decided to watch one of Troy's movies.

Troy's team had a good eye for selecting thought-provoking scripts. I searched online for Bryxton's sci-fi movies, but there were very few high-quality ones.

Most importantly, Troy had never tried acting in movies of this genre. If he collaborated with Amy, itwould undoubtedly create a tremendous buzz. Moreover, this would be Troy's final work in theentertainment industry.

Troy must have a deep affection for Amy to choose his farewell film to act as a foil for her.

Amy ventured into the entertainment industry, and Troy left. This complicated journey must have beentough for Amy, who aspired to enter the industry because of Troy.

I guessed that her future focus would no longer lie in the entertainment industry, especially since Troyhad left, and she still needed to manage her family business.

I sent a message to Amy. 'Does Ian still keep in touch with you?'

Amy replied, 'He used to, but he has been silent for the past few months. Maybe he's had a suddenchange of heart.'

'Maybe Ian has fallen in love with Serene.'

Amy knew who Serene was, and she sent me a voice message, sounding relieved. "That would be thebest outcome."

"Yeah, it would be a resolution without any lingering complications."

A happy ending for everyone.

Nicholas and I had also found peace in our lives.

This was the ending I had always desired.

But as for Ezekiel...

I was still indebted to him.

The thought of it made me feel distressed.

I just sat on the couch when I received a message from Shawn.

'Babe, you look amazing.'

I asked him, 'Is my face chubby?'

Shawn replied, 'Yeah.'

I felt struck by a bolt of lightning out of the blue!

I immediately went to the bathroom to examine my own face.

"How am I chubby?"

How could someone describe a girl's face as chubby?

Upon closer inspection, it did seem a bit round.

Feeling frustrated, I sat back on the couch. Half an hour later, Kevin entered my room and asked, "Ray,are you bored?"

I ignored him and remained silent in my anger.

"Why are you ignoring me?"

I didn't speak.

Kevin approached me and held me by my shoulders, asking, "What happened to you all of a sudden?Speak up, you're making me anxious!"

I finally sighed and said, "My face looks chubby."

Kevin looked puzzled and said, "So you've been upset about that all day? Let me take a look. I told youthat it's just your hairstyle. You're not chubby at all! Don't try these tight curls again. This hairstyle is arecipe for disaster! If you're not happy, I can braid your hair for you."

"Do you know how to braid?" I asked.

"Uh, not really," he admitted.

"Then no thanks," I said.

The door was pushed open again. Kevin and I looked over to see Aimes with a sullen expression. Hefixed his gaze on Kevin's arm around me, and I quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to sleep for awhile."

Kevin stood up too. "I'll get back to work then."

I breathed a sigh of relief after Kevin and Aimes left.

Did Aimes just get jealous?

I lay on the couch to sleep. After some time, I heard someone talking at the door. I opened my eyesand listened as someone said, "I heard Shawn will be attending LG's funeral today with his partner. IfLG was still alive, she'd be furious! This time, it seems that LG is really dead. Colin, have you seen herin recent years?"

Colin is here too?!

I remembered that Colin was also part of the W Organization.

I heard Colin answering, "I've met her, but she still looks down on me. I hate her arrogant attitude!"

The other person said, "Sounds like the way she treated me."

"Don't be too upset. She treats everyone the same except for Shawn. By the way, LG's death shouldhave left behind a substantial amount of resources."

The two people outside unexpectedly began to comfort each other.

The other person continued, "Yes, I heard she secretly trained many people. There should be manyresources. After she's gone, someone will step up to continue her legacy, and I feel that manyproblems will arise."

Colin was surprised and said, "Hey, your English has improved!"

"All members of the W Organization know English. I can't fall behind! I've been learning English allthese years, but I'm still not as good as you."

Colin said, "Shawn personally taught me. Can our levels be the same?"

"Well, you seem quite proud of it!"

"Well, you seem quite proud of it!"

I got up and opened the door. There were two small stools in front of my door. Colin was sitting withanother foreigner, engrossed in their conversation. When Colin heard a noise from behind, he turnedhis head and saw me. Surprised, he asked, "Why are you here?"

"Why? Shouldn't I be here?"

Colin chuckled, "Of course not! I knew you were coming. I'm just surprised you're here so early!"

I explained, "Kevin and I were the first to arrive."

The person next to Colin asked, "Who is she?"

"Shawn's wife."

He felt awkward. "So we were gossiping about others at their doorstep? I guess I'll leave first."

"Why don't you stay here? Let's chat together! I'm bored anyway, and it can kill time while I wait forShawn."

He paused for a moment and said, "Okay, then."

I went back to my room and brought a stool to sit with them at the door. I asked Colin, "What's yourfriend's name?"

The person replied, "My English name is Umbrella."

Umbrella?

What a strange name.

But it was common for foreigners to choose strange English names. I smiled and changed the subject,"My name is Renee. Earlier, you were discussing LG's trained men. My friend was attacked by themlast time, but she was not injured because Mike saved her."

When Umbrella heard me mentioning Mike, his face was filled with fear. Colin comforted him, saying,"Calm down. Mike is not here!"

I asked curiously, "Why are both of you so afraid of him?"

Colin sighed, "We've all been poisoned by him."

"I'm curious. Tell me more!"

Umbrella said, "You won't want to hear it."

"What happened that makes you guys so afraid of him?"

Seeing my persistent questioning, Colin sighed and said, "Back then, Umbrella, me, and some otherswere ordered to seize him. But as you know, things didn't go as planned. Instead of seizing him, wewere caught by him. He tortured us for three whole days! Those three days of my life... "

I interrupted, "Colin, get to the point!"

"Mike is not a merciful man! Your country has the saying of the Ten Cruelties, right? Mike made usexperience every single one of them! And he wouldn't let us die! He simply tortured us to instill fear inus! Although he promised to let us go after three days, Umbrella and I spent two years nursing ourwounds!"

Colin suddenly rolled up his pants and said, "See these white spots on my calf? That's because there'sno skin there!"

I asked in shock, "What does that mean?"
