Chapter 448

Ghost Hand gave everyone ten minutes to finish their breakfast.

"| bet everyone's full, so let's get the main event of today going," Ghost Hand stood on the stage and said.

The familiar mechanical voice caused everyone offstage to tremble.

Cherise finished the last bite of the bread, brushed the crumbs off her hands, and stood up calmly.

The people who shared the sroom as Cherise surrounded her, clearly trying to protect her.

Mary held Cherise's arm tightly, worried that she might not cback once she went up.

Mary's expression was tense and worried.

Ghost Hand shifted his gaze to Cherise.

He looked at Cherise, who stood calmly, and remarked, "Mrs. Chivers, no need forto send someone to get

you, right?"

Cherise nodded. With indifference, she was about to step forward.

However, Mary suddenly stood in front of Cherise and shouted, "Takeinstead. I'm the most useful one here.

"I'm Arthur's mother. Cherise is still young. Can't you let her go?

"I'll trade places with her and everyone else.

"I'm worth several of Cherise. Don't be fooled by her looks; she's just a worthless professor. She's got a bad

temper, eats a lot, and hits people..." Mary kept rambling on.

Cherise didn't expect Mary to suddenly step in, but she was truly grateful at that moment.

Ghost Hand laughed heartily and said, "Well, Arthur's mother, impressive move, protecting your grandson's wife

so bravely

"She truly possesses the grace of Arthur's mother.

"No need to rush, your turn will cnext time.

"Ms. Leach, this way please."

"Don't worry. Wait for me!" Cherise said to Mary. Then she walked past Mary and headed up.

With just four simple words and a smile, Cherise calmed Mary.

Others watched Cherise walk up to the stage calmly, unlike those who used to struggle and cry.

People found it hard to believe since Cherise seemed to be just a delicate woman.

There were more bodyguards on the stage today than before. Maybe Ghost Hand was preparing for Cherise.

When Cherise arrived, Chost Hand looked at her with interest and said, "Looks like you're ready." Cherise

sneered, "Let's get on with it. Say what you want, and do what you must. Don't waste everyone's time"

Ghost Hand said, "Great. Truly a remarkable woman

"I was going to take your life, but now it seems like it'd be a pity to do so."

Cherise stared at his black mask and stated, "Oh? You're after my life. Now that's intriguing.

"As far as | know, | haven't crossed paths with you. We have no interactions, nor have | offended you, yet you

want my life.

"If I'm not mistaken, someone else wantsdead."

Ghost Hand stood there with his arms crossed, silently watching, as if waiting for her to continue.

Seeing him remain silent, Cherise said, "It's Rita, isn't it?"

She observed Ghost Hand's body language closely.

"Seems like I'm right," Cherise said with certainty.

She continued, "Your body language tellsyou're hesitating. You're pretty close to Rita. I'm guessing you're at

her age. A | right?"

Cherise's words stunned many people, especially those who knew Rita.

"Rita? It's always Rita! Was | blind before? | actually thought she was a good friend," Mary said, stomping her

foot.

Someone else remarked, "Is Ghost Hand an old man? Really? He seems quite energetic."

Ghost Hand indeed was surprised by Cherise. Being an experienced leader, he covered his panic with laughter

and said, "Well, looks like I'll have to change the way | do business with you. "Bring up the contract."

One of Ghost Hand's men responded with a "Yes," and cover holding two prepared documents, placing them

on a desk Another subordinate of Ghost Hand approached Cherise and gestured for her to cto the desk to

sign the contracts. Cherise glanced toward the contracts and walked over to the desk, casually picking up the

two sheets of paper.

Ghost Hand said in a stern tone, "Sign these two papers."

Cherise ignored him and read it carefully.

With a sneer, she finally remarked, "How greedy! These contracts stipulate the transfer of GlobalVision Group's

latest chip patent technology.

"Besides, you're askingto unconditionally hand over 80% of my personal assets and commit to working for

you in the future."

After saying so, Cherise mockingly shook her head and, in front of everyone, quickly tore the contracts into

pieces, scattering them like snowflakes across the factory.

The mechanical male voice sounded, "Very good! Those who didn't cooperate before have all met their end here,

and you're no exception."

As soon as Chost Hand finished his words, dozens of bodyguards on the stage quickly drew their guns, pointing

them firmly

at Cherise.

The sudden, synchronized sound of pistols being cocked sent screams through the crowd below, causing chaos

to ensue.

No one knew who fired a shot into the air, but it immediately silenced everyone. They could only quietly watch

Cherise, who was surrounded by dozens of guns pointed at her. 10:09 Tue, Dec 24 G GG.

Ghost Hand's eyes narrowed under the mask. He hadn't expected Cherise to hold firm in this situation. With a

sneer, he ordered, "Fire."

As soon as he spoke, everyone held their breath. Mary was almost fainting from fear, unable to look directly at

Cherise. Three, two, one-many in the crowd counted down silently in their minds, just like Mary, too scared to

look at Cherise. However, five seconds passed, but the sound of gunfire didn't come.

Many people began sneaking peeks towards Cherise.

Suddenly, they noticed the dozens of bodyguards surrounding Cherise all fall to the ground.

Nobody knew what had just happened; they only saw that each fallen bodyguard had a needle stuck in their

throat.
