Chapter: 825
But things were different now. She was now a mother to two adorable kids, Adie and Abby, and a quiet and peaceful life suited her more now. If it turned out that Renee�s solution to her current problem was to go back to her old ways, then he would probably feel so guilty that he might kill himself!
�Don�t be ridiculous!� Renee bluntly refuted Liam�s assumption. �I promised Grandpa that I�ll never do that ever again for the sake of Adie and Abby, so you have my word that I�ll never get involved with those pigs ever again.�
Certainly, the idea was tempting. After all, with her old ways, she could easily get hundreds of millions of dollars without lifting a finger. But that lifestyle was simply too precarious. She narrowly escaped with her own life, and the mere thought of it would make her break out in cold sweat. No, there was no way thatshe would ever go back there!
�Then how��
�You don�t need to know the details right now,� Renee asserted. �I may be poor, but I still have enough fixed assets to settle the money.�
�Don�t lie to me! I know exactly what kind of predicament you�re in right now. You don�t have any fixed assets, you�re��
�Enough! Stop interrogating me! I�m still your boss, aren�t I? In that case, you should trust in my abilities and believe that I know what I�m doing! Have I ever disappointed you before?�
�I guess you�re right��
Renee�s bold confidence put Liam somewhat at ease, but he was still concerned for her. Nevertheless, he knew what she was like. If she did not want to reveal something, he could ask her till his mouth went dry and she would still keep her lips sealed. He also knew that Renee would never give up till she was able topay up, so he decided to just give up the matter for now.
�No matter what solution you�ve thought of,� he told her, �just remember to be careful and stay safe, Boss! If there�s anything at all that I can do to help, just say the word and I�ll be there!�
�Don�t worry. I know what I�m doing.�
Renee waved her hand goodbye and walked away. But she soon paused and turned around to ask Liam, �By the way, do you know where Carmine Pawnshop�s exact location is?�
�Why do you want to know?� Liam was immediately alarmed by her question.
�What are you planning to do?�
�Just answer the question!� Renee replied sternly, looking displeased.
�It�s near the Water Dock, but it�s a really dangerous place, Boss. It�s a lawless no man�s land where even the Devil himself could get conned out of the clotheson his back!�
Liam had been to that place with his father once or twice before, and it left a distinct impression in his mind. Suffice it to say, the experience had fueled his nightmares ever since!
�Besides, Carmine Pawnshop is nothing like the ordinary pawn shop that you might expect. You must know that the pawn shop�s owner, Mr. Q, is known as the Night Demon. Don�t even think about making a deal with him, it�s no different than selling your soul to the devil! You�ll cross a line where there�s simply noreturn!�
After listening to this, not only was Renee not afraid, but it even piqued her interest.
A demon, huh?! She began to anticipate meeting this mysterious man now! JrNovels.com
