The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1652

“Are you seething with rage? I imagine, if Chloe does show up, you’ll have to watch as the child inside her leaves

her body. What kind of expressions will you and your daughter have then?”

Yasmine merely looked at her coldly, and finally responded with a soft, icy laugh.

Wendy was once again irritated by her indifferent demeanor, and her brows were furrowing. “You two, mother and

daughter, are both masters at feigning calmness”

Yasmine continued to stare at her coolly

“I just don’t want to waste too much time arguing with a lunatic “c2

She gave a small smirk, and her eyes twinkled with a hint of amusement and a touch of pity. People should live

however they want. If you think her being pregnantnow would make you happier, then by all means, believe it

The smile on Wendy’s face gradually faded. The probing gaze landed on Yasmine’s face. Was Chloe really pregnant

or not? If she was pregnant, as a mother, wouldn’t hearing these words unsettle her?

Were all those speculations on the news fake?

But, there was no smoke without fire. Why else would the two of them suddenly decide to shop for baby items?

And only for twins at that. Their intentions were too obvious

But how could Chloe be pregnant without Yasmine knowing?

If she had just found out, that was also impossible. They were with Yasmine throughout her rehabilitation, and the

ride home was spent in the car There was no way Chloe could suddenly confirm her pregnancy

She thought about it over and over, but it just didnt make sense. She thought she could get some answers from

Yasmine, but her presence only made things more confusing

After glaring at Yasmine for a while with a hateful gaze, Wendy finally pursed her lips and let out a cold, derisive

chuckle. “You’re right, in the end, death is inevitable. Once your precious daughter shows up, I’ll find out whether

she’s pregnant or not!”

Yasmine closed her eyes, giving her no response.

“We re almost at the destination There’s a checkpoint up ahead, remember not to utter a word.”

This was Wendy’s first time in such a place. She knew it was known for its unrest and unruly inhabitants with terrible

tempers. A slight misstep could end up getting her shot Naturally, she was nervous, but the fact that these people

could calmly choose this place, and were confident they could pass the checkpoint showed they had some skills.

She nodded to indicate her understanding.

Yasmine slowly opened her eyes, looking towards the front of the car.

In the darkness, she could see the alternating flashing of red and blue lights up ahead. Vague figures patrolled the

checkpoint with guns, clearly the

checkpoint they spoke of

Armed? Murderous?

Without thinking too much, Yasmine figured out where they were headed Having lived in P City for years, she was

familiar with the borders. Coming hefe

wasn’t surprising

The people Ava found were naturally not bottom of the barrel. Furthermore, her political standing in Y Country had

no impact on her dealing with these outlaws Every person in power had their dark means. For someone as

ambitious as her, it was not surprising to associate with these types of people

After about ten minutes, they arrived at the checkpoint, and everyone got out of the car for inspection Roughly,

Yasmine was placed in a wheelchair, and with a gun pointed at her head, they brazenly passed the checkpoint

The checkpoint staff only glanced at Yasmine before motioning for them to pass, allowing them into their territory

Yasmine remained expressionless, while Wendy was tense and short of breath. Once they entered the territory, she

was still in shock.

Yasmine, with a gun pointed at her head, could pass the checkpoint so easily, and it made her heart race.

Soon, however, she accepted the reality

As soon as they entered, she heard a few gunshots and watched as a middle–aged man was shot dead in the

street.

Checkpoint staff in uniform approached and scolded them, then watched as the gunmen dragged the dead man

away. This was the dark area. Life have seemed cheap

“Everyone knows this place is where many people do their business. As long as someone dares to cross this

checkpoint, they dare to bet them in. After all, it’s easy to enter, but difficult to leave! If you’re not absolutely

connected and brave, no one would think of coming here. No matter who you á kú long as you’re not the boss

here, you can die at any moment!

The gangster leader explained to Wendy as he directed his men to push Yasmine forward, his expression and tone

serous

Through the darkness. Wendy could even see smoke nsing from a house not far away Judging from the dilapidated

scene, it was clear this place had been bombed not long ago On both sides of the street people of all sorts stood,

sal aquatted, and had their eyes fixed on her

Some even waved at her and she felt a sting on her chin Looking down, she saw a gold necklace had fallen at her

fees

The words money sex trade instantly made her distance herself from the necklace as the crowd around her

erupted in laughter

Wendy, a former upper–class lady had never seen such a group of thugs But at this time and place it wasn’t the

time for her to act be a lady Catching up to the gang leader, she asked with a shaky voice, see that everyone here

is defiant, and wouldn’t easily submit to others why do they acknowledge the boss?”

Chapter 1652

The gang leader laughed, looking at Wendy as if she were a fool.

“Of course, it’s because he controls the weapons they need most! Without weapons, these people are no better

than dead.”

Wendy furrowed her brows. “Hasn’t anyone thought of getting weapons from other channels? Why must they…”

“Other channels? it’s said that he virtually monopolizes the weapons supply of the countries located in the middle of

the world. Most of the weapons come from him. Even if you go around him, they still end up in his hands, and you

also end up offending him, so what’s the point?”

Wendy’s brow furrowed even deeper.

“As far as I know, the Harper family’s underground whiskey trade in New York ishit exactly small–scale

“But you’d still need an opportunity to get in touch with the Harpers, then successfully negotiate a deal! If they’ve

already chosen their leader here, there must be a good reason! Either this guy has exceptional guts, or he’s offered

a price that satisfies the locals, or there might be some other private deals.
