Chapter 701 I Will Punish You

When Pierre arrived at the scene, Selena was still rubbing her eyes.

"Woman, when will you finally learn to not do things your own way?" The moment he stepped out of the car, he bellowed at her, but he stopped when he saw her rubbing her eyes. "What happened to your eyes?"

"Some dirt got into them."

He took a flashlight and said, "Let me take a look." Then, he blew hard in the direction of her eyes. "Try opening them. How about now?"

She struggled to open her eyes, and he had an underling grab a bottle of water for her to wash her eyes.

"Okay, I'm fine now."

"Where is she?"

"She's escaped." Selena sighed. "Anyway, I'm not worried that she slipped away. Since we know her identity, it's going to be easy to catch her. We were right-it's Meredith." "What? How is Meredith still alive?"

From his probe before, he realized that he had fallen into a trap. At that time, he came up with two possible explanations: Either that woman was truly Meredith, who acted out of line to mask her identity, or she could simply be just another promiscuous woman.

The more he thought about it, the more he was confused.

Mia's acting was too obvious. In an attempt to prove that she was not Meredith, she went overboard in her actions.

As for Selena, she had started designing the trap after she received the call from Hades, for she was curious about the identity of the woman who wanted her dead.

Pierre almost heaved in disgust at the thought of Meredith escaping scott-free. I can't believe John spared her!

"Go after her! A weak woman like her couldn't have run very far!" He immediately gave out orders. Then, he gave Selena a threatening glare that caught her by shock. "You! I will teach you a lesson after we get home!"

On their way home, he deliberately ignored her. She stuck out her tongue like a child who had done something wrong, knowing that she had irked him. After she called Hades, she worked on setting up the trap without informing Pierre.

She did that because she didn't want to let Pierre know that she was still in contact with Hades. Moreover, she was worried that Pierre might cause trouble if he was involved in the planning because he always acted too brashly. So, she made the decision to deal with the mysterious woman alone.

But despite her covert actions, Pierre still showed up at the scene.

When they got home, he went into the bathroom in silence, whereupon she tailed him closely. When he stepped into the bathroom, she absentmindedly followed him in. "Are you thinking of taking a romantic bath with me?"

It was at that moment she realized that Pierre wanted to take a bath. "Um, I will leave-"

To her surprise, he pulled her into the bathroom and ordered, "Let's take a bath together!"

She grumbled silently. This is why I should never enter the bathroom carelessly when he's home-it is a dangerous act!

He left a hickey on her neck and warned her, "Selena Yard, I am warning you now: If you do things your way without informing me, this shall be your punishment!"

She wriggled her way into his arms and relished his love and comfort.

"Are you still in contact with Hades?" He demanded to know.

"No! I swear that this was the only time. Just this time! He told me that someone had contacted the Zephyr Organization to get me killed," she claimed in all seriousness.

"If there's a next time, I will punish you. Just wait and see!"

The next morning, Pierre received news that his men had failed to catch Meredith.

Hearing the news, Selena's eyes darted as her mind was abuzz with thoughts. "She either went home or met up with Megan. If you keep a tab on those two places, you won't miss her!"

He scoffed at her simple guess. "If that idea crossed your mind, I bet she'd thought of it too."

She choked in frustration from his dismissive remark.

"Great! Tell me, then-how are you going to catch her?"

"No matter what it takes, I will capture her. This time around, I won't spare her life!" He tightened his fists until his veins were protruding as he seethed at the thought of being fooled by Meredith. Now that she had showed up again, he would not let go of the chance to apprehend her.

"Okay, I'll leave that to you. I am going to stay out of it." Selena showed no interest in nabbing Meredith anymore.
