Coolest Girl in Town

Prince was urging her to come over, so she replied to Suella's message with a rejection. After that, she

shoved her phone into her pocket and rushed toward her pet dog.

When she approached Prince, she finally understood the reason for his urgency. The ball had landed

between the fence of two farms. However, there was a little space above the fence, and Prince couldn't

worm his body through them. Thus, he had to call his owner over to help him.

"All right, all right. Let me get it for you."

Alicia rolled her sleeves up before reaching out a hand over the fence to pick up the ball. Prince was

waiting beside her obediently all this time.

Just when her hand almost reached the ball, she heard footsteps from the opposite direction.

The next moment, a man's threatening voice echoed in front of her.

"You're in charge of the farm at the moment. Keep an eye on that guy. If anything goes wrong, you

know the consequences."

The distant voice was getting closer, and it passed by Alicia before it receded in the opposite direction.

His words reminded Alicia of Jamie and Ariel. All three of them are Cittadelians. They're looking for a

missing person... And the man just now asked his companion to keep an eye on someone.

These two things could be connected.

Thus, she took out the phone without hesitation to call Jamie.

However, Prince barked at the same moment.

She immediately put a hand around its mouth, but she was too slow. Matthew stopped right there as he

turned around to look in her direction with a piercing gaze.

Alicia held her breath as she listened to his moves.

A few seconds later, a low voice boomed above her head. "Who are you trying to call?"

She raised her head and met his gloomy expression.

The next moment, she lunged forward and ran. "Prince, run!"

Even though she had the habit of jogging, she was way too slow compared to Matthew. She only made

it a few yards when his kick landed on her back, and the impact sent her to the ground.

Prince pounced at Matthew and bit his arm when he saw him attacking his owner.

"Ouch!" Matthew grunted in pain and landed a few punches at the dog in anger. However, Prince was

reluctant to let go.

Alicia rose to her feet when Matthew's focus was on the dog. She began to run and shouted at Prince

to get his attention, "Prince, come over here! Quick!"

Before the dog could register her command, Matthew took out a dagger from his pocket and stabbed it

into Prince's body.

Stab! Stab! He went in with abandon. A moment later, he took the dog's life.

"Prince!"

Grief struck Alicia. At the same time, she realized that she was facing a murderous man. She didn't

dare mourn Prince's death as she quickened her steps and fled the scene.

However, Matthew was faster than her. Besides, she was injured. At last, he caught up with her and

captured her.

He could have killed her, but he changed his mind when he noticed the name-brand clothes on her.

Worried that he would draw the police's attention to him, he spared her.

After that, he dragged Prince's dead body away and buried it somewhere.

In the meantime, Narissa had been following Heather for the last two hours. At last, they arrived at a

deserted and shabby motel.

After Heather checked in, Narissa searched around the place for clues but to no avail.

Watching Heather sleep was the last straw to break Narissa's back. She left the place and called Elise.

"El, are you sure we are on the right path? That woman just found a motel to spend the night. I think I'm

starting to hear her snores."

Listening to another person's snoring was nothing but torture to someone who hadn't slept for two

days.

Even though Heather didn't actually snore, she was having a good sleep. And that was enough to

make Narissa feel sleepy.

"She's being cautious, so you can't find her hideout. Bring her to me. I'll interrogate her myself."

It seems like a conservative method is useless. Thus, Elise had no choice but to use force on Heather.

"Roger that. I'll take care of it."

Narissa ended the call and walked straight up to Heather's room before knocking on the door. "Good

evening, madam. This is room service."

Heather was on the verge of falling asleep when Narissa's voice shook her off sleep. She answered the

door with an unhappy expression.

When she opened the door, she was alerted by Narissa's Cittadelian features. She didn't hesitate to

close the door.

Narissa wasted no time kicking the door open. Worrying that the impact would hurt her baby, Heather

placed her hands over her belly to protect it as she took a few steps backward.

Narissa grinned at her. "Let's go. I'm craving sleep."

"How does it have anything to do with me?" Pressing her back to the wall, Heather shook

uncontrollably.

She just witnessed the woman's strength. I definitely stand no chance of defeating her.

"Damn. I didn't mean to tell you that."

Narissa swore before changing her tone. "Just follow me. I don't want to use force."

Judging from the woman's attitude, Heather could tell that disobedience would only lead to a kick on

her body instead of the door.

A loss may turn out to be a gain. After pondering for a second, Heather complied with Narissa.

Narissa drove at full speed. Within half an hour, she brought Heather to Elise.

Heather had been suffering from morning sickness, and she had to overcome the cold breeze on the

way here. Thus, the feeling of nausea was stronger when she arrived at their destination. All she could

do was kneel on the ground and retch violently.

"Here she is. I'll leave the rest to you. You can find me upstairs, but not before I get a good sleep."

Narissa was exhausted, so she simply left Heather on the ground while she headed upstairs alone.
