Chapter 1031 - 1031: Success

The message was short, just two words: "Success."

She smiled contentedly upon seeing the message.

She asked the six men still changing the tire, "Guys, I'll go to the shop over there and buy you a pack of cigarettes. You keep busy; I'll be right back..."

The car is still here.

Could the person really escape?

Xiao Ye left before.

The bearded man waved warmly, saying, "Hey beautiful, don't buy expensive cigarettes, we're not after your money..."

Everyone burst into laughter at his joking interjection.

Xiao Ye twisted her hips.

Just stepped out of their sight.

She immediately took out her phone and dialed a number, "Boss, what a crappy car you rented me, didn't drive far before the tire blew. I left the car in front of Phoenix Elementary School in Majestic Peak Town; you send someone to retrieve it..."

After speaking.

Xiao Ye hung up the phone, humming a tune as she disappeared into the night.

Fifteen minutes later.

The tire of the SUV was changed.

The men waited and waited but she never returned.

They became somewhat dejected.

So they went back to their room to continue playing cards.

The bearded man, losing interest, remembered the beautiful woman in the next room and perked up again. After stealthily opening the door, he was dumbfounded.

The window in the room was open.

The woman who had been undressed was gone.

Feeling like he had been electrocuted, he was instantly at a loss for what to do.

He rushed to another room, only to find it in the same condition; the room holding the reporter Braulio was also empty, leaving only a vacant room and an open window...

"Ah... they've escaped, they've escaped..."

The shout tore through the night sky...

...

In the villa.

Dirk Carter and Mona were anxiously waiting.

Especially Mona, who had gone outside several times to check.

She was restless and was about to get up again.

Dirk smiled and said, "Don't worry, I trust Xiao Ye."

"You trust her, but I don't. What if she gave us false information from the start just to scam us for money? What about Braulio and them then?"

Mona said justifiably.

Dirk looked at his watch, saying, "Didn't she say twenty-four hours? There's still half an hour; she should make it."

Mona was about to argue further.

Just then, the slightly ajar door was pushed open.

The provocatively dressed Xiao Ye walked in directly, grabbed a piece of watermelon from the table, and began to eat voraciously.

"Where are they? Did you come back alone?"

Mona rushed to her and demanded.

Xiao Ye glanced at her sideways, didn't reply, and continued eating the watermelon.

Mona got anxious.

She knocked the watermelon out of her hand and angrily said, "Eat, eat, that's all you do. I'm asking where are they? Can't you speak?"

Xiao Ye looked at Mona disdainfully.

She picked up another piece of watermelon.

Mona was about to lose it again.

At that moment, a familiar voice was heard from the doorway, "Mona..."

Mona startled.

Turned her head to look.

Two people appeared at the doorway.

Both were about the same height, around 1.7 meters.

One had a very delicate appearance, with short hair, wearing a baseball cap, a white T-shirt on top, cargo pants below, and sports shoes.

Dirk was surprised as he looked.

Thinking to himself, could there really be such a delicate-looking man? With that face, he would be a top-tier presence among women, let alone among men.

It's a pity he's a bit short; otherwise, with that face, he'd qualify for a boy band.

"Braulio, you're back, Braulio..."

Seeing this person.

Mona immediately got excited.

She ran over quickly.

The two embraced tightly.

Next to Braulio stood a woman.

She was wearing a sleeveless vest on top, loose jeans below, looking clean and chic yet feminine.

Her looks were undeniable.

Her figure was exceptionally tall.

Especially her long legs, they were striking compared to Mona's and Xiao Ye's.

Her eyes showed panic; clearly, she didn't know Dirk and Xiao Ye, and the current environment made her a bit uneasy.

"Nancy, are you okay?"

After letting go of Braulio, Mona.

Held the woman's hand and asked with concern.

The woman shook her head indifferently, looking towards Dirk, as if asking Mona who these two were.

Mona responded with an "Oh".

Leading the woman called Nancy to Dirk, she pointed and said, "Nancy, don't be afraid; this is the person who saved you. He is the newly appointed Commissioner of Discipline for Silverwood City; his name is Dirk Carter."

"What do you mean he saved you? Wasn't it me?"

Xiao Ye wiped her mouth discontentedly and stood up.

Mona argued, "If Dirk hadn't provided the money, would you have gone?"

"Even if I received the money, I was the one who saved her. Is there anything wrong with that?"

Xiao Ye retorted.

As the two seemed about to start bickering again.

Dirk smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, stop arguing. Xiao Ye saved her; she is your savior."

Nancy gave Xiao Ye a grateful look.

Softly said, "Thank you."

With just those words, Xiao Ye felt embarrassed.

She scratched her head, saying, "Hehe, no need for thanks, no need, it was nothing..."

"Alright everyone, have a seat. Now that you're here, there's no need to fear; let's talk about pressing matters."

Upon Dirk's command.

They all sat around him on the couch.

Mona pointed at Nancy and said, "Dirk, let me introduce you; her name is Nancy Sharp, 23 years old, previously the lead dancer of The Majestic Dance Troupe, and a distinguished graduate of Argentum Academy of Dance."

"Miss Sharp, you are very brave!"

Dirk said sincerely.

A trace of sadness crossed Nancy's face.

She said, "After all this suffering, the villains still haven't been brought to justice. What's the point of being brave?"

"Nancy, it won't be like that; Brent Lowell will definitely pay for his actions, believe me, okay?"

Mona held her hand, offering encouragement.

Nancy didn't respond.

This was understandable.

She had thought that once she found Mona and Braulio, exposing the matter would solve it, but things didn't turn out that way; two journalists couldn't save them.

"Braulio, is it? Reporter Braulio, can you tell me how you got captured?"

Dirk asked.

Mona suddenly snapped to attention.

She said, "Indeed, Braulio, how did you get captured?"

Braulio had very attractive eyes.

They were quite captivating.

Fluttering.

He sighed and said, "I was captured at home..."

The incident happened on the same day that Mona and Dirk were being followed.

Similarly, it also happened at night.

Braulio had just returned to his rented apartment from work, only to find the room in a chaotic mess, signs of rifling everywhere.
