Chapter 173 An UnwelcVisitor Ryan's fees for taking someone out were based on the target's skill level. He'd only quote one hundred million if the target were a master martial artist. And Daniel, that country boy, could throw a punch, sure, but Christopher figured Ryan would only charge ten million tops. The rest of the ninety million? Well, Christopher was more than happy to pocket that windfall.

Christopher loved making friends more than anything he basically knew half of New York. Only about one-tenth of his wealth cfrom his medical skills. The rest? It all cfrom being the middleman.

In the vast hundred-square-foot living room of the Matthews mansion, Jessica sat lounging on the sofa, legs crossed, while Daniel stood in front of her, grinning like an idiot.

"Cut it out! Tell me!" "Tell you what?" "Who's that beautiful woman?" "She's Isabella! President of the Prospera Group and the sole heiress of Florida's top tycoon, Chris.' "Isabella? How do you know her?" "Chris was cursed. I saved his life! But I didn't do it for free-l charged her." To prove his innocence, Daniel showed her the fund transfer records.

"Why are there two transactions?" "Because she was cursed, too! I helped her get rid of her curse as well." "So you helped her with a curse, and that's why she lent you ten billion?" "My dear, tonight's Jade Gambling event was hosted by the Evans. Which stone had jade and which didn't? Isabella definitely knew! She's a businesswoman. She was willing to lendten billion to make a hefty interest off of it..." "You idiot!" Jessica shot Daniel a scathing look, "Ten billion! You madelose ten billion for nothing! Why didn't you tellsooner that the stone was guaranteed to have the finest quality Imperial Green Jade worth ten billion?" "Didn't I?" "No, you didn't!" Daniel:...

Just then, noises cfrom outside.

Rustle! Jessica perked up her ears and asked, "Did you hear that?" "Yeah!" "Is it a stray cat that's gotten into the yard?" "It's not a cat; it sounds like a person." "A person? Could it be a thief?" "Not a thief." Daniel shook his head, "The way it sounds, that person is more likely a hitman." "A hitman?" Fear flickered across Jessica's face as she asked, "What for?" "You really are clueless! If a hitman has cthrough the door, he's obviously here to kill me!" "To kill you? Who have you angered? Who sent a hitman after you?"

"It must be Andrew! After I made him lose billions tonight, he must hate my guts. Plus, he seesas a rival in love he'd want nothing more than to seetorn to pieces!" With that, Daniel stepped outside into the yard.

A man stood there with eyebrows white as snow, brandishing agurved blade-aloof and imposing. It was none other than White Eyebrow Ryan.

Ryan had scaled the fence to enter the premises, deliberately kicking loose a brick during his descent, causing it to clatter to the ground with a noise. It was intentional he wanted to lure Daniel outside. Jessica followed closely behind.

Upon seeing the unfamiliar man, she asked coldly, "Who are you? What are you doing trespassing in the middle of the night?"
