The Spoiled Girl - Chapter 1546 A New Plan

Louis still felt a little angry in his heart. He could only sneer at her in response. “Does the reason really matter? Because to me, there’s not a single excuse in the world that would make me understand him. His actions are unforgivable no matter what reason he had. I swear, one day, I’ll force Bill to kneel in front of my parents’ tomb and tell them the truth.”

Seeing that Louis was dead set on getting revenge, Taylor felt a little worried.

Bill was a cruel and powerful man. Would Louis be able to get what he wanted without hurting himself?

Noticing the concerned look on Taylor’s face, Louis turned around and held her in his arms. He gently stroked her cheek, and then whispered a few words of comfort. “Don’t worry. I’ll always protect you. I promise no one’s going to hurt you anymore.”

At that moment, Taylor knew there was nothing she could possibly do to change his mind. That was why she simply told him about her concerns. “I’ll be fine. You should be worried about yourself since you’re the one who’s going to do something dangerous.”

An unexpected smile suddenly appeared on Louis’ face as soon as Taylor finished speaking. All of a sudden, he felt light-hearted, which made him change the topic. “Are you worried about me?”

Taylor’s cheeks blushed from embarrassment. She couldn’t help but take back what she had said. “Who cares about you? I just…”

The look on her face when she was running out of words to say made Louis chuckle. With a gentle look on his face, he replied, “It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to say it out loud. I know what you mean.”

‘This bastard! How dare he use my words against me?’ Taylor thought while rolling her eyes at him.

Taylor still wanted to say something to make herself look tough. But she was too late since Louis had already leaned his head on her shoulder. After a few seconds, he spoke in a tired but somewhat cheerful voice. “Don’t worry too much. I’ll keep myself out of harm’s way for you.”

All of a sudden, Taylor’s heart softened. The atmosphere between them felt warm and cozy. It was such a rare moment for the two of them that she didn’t want to ruin it. That was why she simply hugged him back and stayed silent.

At that moment, Taylor vowed to herself that no matter what Bill did, she would always be by Louis’ side.

The next day, Louis made his way to the CEO Office of the Ke Group.

Dressed in a dashing, all-black suit, he sat in his office chair like a duke who had just returned to his magnificent castle. Shortly after, he took out an expensive-looking pen and twirled it around with his fingers.

While doing so, he stared blankly at a single document. His eyes clearly showed how deep he was in thought. Contained in the document was a simple personnel transfer. All he needed to do was sign. However, Louis was hesitant to do so. He was frozen in place, and completely

an answered. “What’s up?”

The assistant proceeded to relay a brief summary of Louis’ plan. After that, he asked in a worried tone “Do you think Mr. Ke is putting the group in danger?”

After a moment of silence, the man on the other end of the line responded, “I see. Just do as you’re told for now.”

“Okay, okay,” the assistant replied while letting out a sigh of relief.

With this unknown person guaranteeing him his safety, he became confident in doing his task. Even if Louis were to cause trouble, he knew he wouldn’t get involved.

A few moments later, the assistant took the documents on the floor and carried it with him outside. It was not until then that the tense expression on his face slowly disappeared.

Sometime later, the night’s darkness shrouded every corner of the city.

Hunk leisurely sat on a sofa inside the study room. He was playing a few games of chess with his butler while sipping on some tea.

After a while, he won their final game, which caused him to smile like a little boy. While shaking his head, he uttered some playful banter to his opponent. “You should practice more, you know?”

The old butler met Hunk’s words with silence. He simply stood up and placed the chess pieces inside the chessboard.

Since Hunk had known him for many years, he could tell that something was bothering his butler. Right after taking a sip of tea, he slowly asked, “It seems that you have something to tell me.”

The old butler hesitated for a while but nodded in agreement in the end.

“Mr. Ke is planning something big,” he said.

With a curious expression on his face, Hunk asked, “Really? What did he do this time?”

The old butler hesitated once again but still answered after a while. “He sent someone to take over a casino belonging to Bill. I don’t know what he wants to do, but I’m a little worried. We both know how dangerous Bill can be.”

Against the butler’s expectations, Hunk didn’t show a single sign of being surprised at all. He didn’t frown and just responded with a single word. “Really?”
