When She Stops Playing Nice by Hale Saxon
Chapter 317

Chapter 317

Cathy remained silent for a moment. Gina grew a bit displeased. Are you still trying to protect your boyfriend regarding matters of life and death?”

Cathy was taken aback when Gina hit the nail on the head. Initially, she found the contract unreasonable but couldn’t resist Andy’s persuasion.

Signing that contract felt like signing away her autonomy, akin to indentured servitude. And it wasn’t just her; she suspected. other girls who experienced shock from blood donation might be in the same predicament. Unlike her, those unable to pay the breach fee weren’t as fortunate to encounter Gina. If she withheld information from Gina, it would be indirectly causing harm, even leading to fatalities.

“Indeed, he’s constantly recruiting people to become mobile blood banks,” Cathy admitted truthfully.

Try to stop him as much as possible, Gina paused. “Consider it as repaying me.”

“Alright, I’ll do my best.” Cathy replied, meeting Gina’s gaze.

Finally, Gina added. “Be careful, don’t let Andy replace out, and don’t get yourself hurt.” Andy wasn’t a good person, let alone a suitable match. Gina saw through him better than Cathy did.

Cathy nodded silently.

“Go back and rest well, Gina said.

After Cathy left. Gina walked far away and found a quiet spot before calling Michael. “Investigate Blue Vale Hospital. They attract a large number of people to donate blood with high salaries. Find out where the blood they collect ends up.”

“Got it,” Michael replied solemnly. He continued, “By the way, Gina, Colin Barnes is looking for two other collectors with the 79 Lafite. It seems like he loves that wine. Without one bottle in his collection, he’s keen on acquiring the only two remaining exquisite bottles worldwide.”

Gina instructed Michael to closely monitor Colin and see what other tricks he might have. She found the discovery quite intriguing. With a faint smile, Gina added, “Stay ahead of him. Find those two collectors first and purchase the wine.”

“Understood,” Michael said.

Gina hung up the phone and realized she was being followed. Without alerting the follower, she continued, taking a less crowded route once she reached her apartment complex.

Ivan felt increasingly uneasy but couldn’t quite understand what was wrong. He continued to follow, intending to turn the corner, when suddenly he was kicked hard. The blow landed in his lower abdomen, narrowly missing a more sensitive area. Ivan looked at Gina in anger.

Gina recognized Ivan. “Are you Millers never going to leave me alone? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t bother me again?”

Ivan’s expression turned cold. “Mom did say that, but the condition was for you to help Miller Jewels through the tough times, not snatch it away”

“Snatch it away?” Gina found it somewhat amusing. “Without me Miller Jewels would have turned into a mess.

In fact, without Gina’s investment arrangements and the personally designed Wish collection, Miller Jewels would have been nothing but a sinking ship.

“I advise you, Gina Miller, to return Miller Jewels to us before I lose my patience and stop being civil,” Ivan said menacingly.

Gina responded calmly, “That’s not going to happen.”

Chapter 317

“You won’t cry until you see the consequences, wit

you?” Ivan gritted his teeth. “Gina Miller, even if you die, your blood ties to the Miller family can’t be severed. All your assets will still end up with us.”

Gina chuckled. “If you want my inheritance, you might have no chance to take it.”

now.”

“Is that so?” Ivan sneered, “Don’t underestimate me. I could take your life right

Ivan pulled out a handgun and aimed it at Gina. “This gun is equipped with a silencer. I can make sure you die quietly in this alley

Gina remained unfazed, her expression still calm and composed. “Is that so? Then go ahead and shoot.”

Ivan was taken aback. He couldn’t detect a hint of fear on Gina’s face. Why wasn’t she scared? Instead, her unnerving calmness was almost terrifying. How could anyone not be afraid when faced with a gun, especially when it was pointed at their head? And Gina was a woman. ‘Da*n it, she must be some freak! he thought.

Ivan thought that Gina still didn’t grasp the seriousness of the situation. “Do you think I’m bluffing? Or do you believe this gun isn’t real and can’t kill you? Don’t assume that just because you have status, influence, and Gabriel’s protection, I won’t dare to kill you. Killing you means I get all your assets and can still walk away unscathed. Do you think I’m joking with you?”

However, he’d need to share some benefits with the mercenary group to get away cleanly. Killing someone and covering it up wasn’t easy, but offering rewards was no big deal. After all, Gipa was wealthy. Once he got his hands on her assets. affording those rewards wouldn’t be a problem.

“I doubt it. I’m not particularly eager to listen to nonsense. If you think you can shoot, go ahead and shoot.” Gina said calmly.

Ivan was puzzled, not entirely understanding Gina’s words. What did she mean by “if you think you can shoot, then go ahead and shoot”? Ivan felt underestimated by Gina. He believed she was mocking him, implying that he wouldn’t shoot.

“Alright. Gina Miller. Ivan gritted his teeth. “You said it yourself. When my bullet hits you, there’ll be no turning back. Prepare to die. He was determined to execute Gina on his return.

Just as Ivan was about to pull the trigger, he suddenly felt a slight prick on his neck, as if an insect had bitten him. Instinctively, he touched his neck to see what had happened. But to his horror, he found himself unable to move. It was as if his entire body had lost sensation and control, except for his consciousness. He felt paralyzed, unable to command his actions. Ivan’s eyes widened in terror as he stood helplessly frozen in place.

As Gina calmly approached him, Ivan watched in astonishment. During their conversation just now, Gina had subtly captured his attention and then swiftly shot a threadlike blade hidden in her fingertips, striking a crucial point on Ivan’s neck. Ivan found himself completely immobilized. The threadlike blade was thin and long, almost invisible even to someone with excellent eyesight. Ivan had no idea it could also be used as a hidden weapon.

Gina walked up to Ivan and took the gun from his hand, pressing it against his forehead.
