GoodNovel"However, Ms. Wiley." lan's voice rang once more, interrupting my train of thought. "I have to remind you that this place isn't safe.
"I heard that there are people trying to locate this art gallery all these years but to no avail. There were also people that had met their demise because of this." I lifted my head and met lan's eyes. I sensed concern and care in his words. I didn't know what his purpose was for doing all of these, but he quickly made his intentions clear.
"Of course, these are just ordinary people, so it would be impossible for them to find what they want. However, if you work with me, I can make sure that you find it." This cunning, old fox had finally revealed its tail. He was now starting to nhis terms.

In this art gallery, many masterpieces in their collection could give you a very comfortable life." Jack couldn't wait to sellfor profit at that time, so it was impossible for such a great thing to be freely available.
I scoffed coldly. I had my suspicions that he was deliberately lying to me, but no matter what it was, he was still a very despicable man.
"Your terms are very alluring, however, my purpose of finding this art gallery isn't just to satisfy my materialistic desires," I said with determination as I looked straight at him. I refused to lose myself in this complicated transaction.
If there was still no end yet between mine and Ethan's web of emotional entanglement, why would I give it all up just for money? If I could back out like this just for smoney, I was truly incapable.
"The relationship between Ethan andisn't something that you can easily dictate." lan was slightly stunned. Displeasure gleamed in his eyes. He didn't expectto reject his offer so quickly.
"You're indeed someone who knew their worth, Ms. Wiley, but did you know that this world is far more complicated than you think it is? If ssecrets have been exposed, it might bring you unfathomable destruction." I took a deep breath. I may be in distress, but I was more convicted.
"Since I'm already on this path, I have done my preparation for what might be to come. No matter if it is going to be storms or thorns, I wil not back down. As for Ethan, how our relationship progresses should be up to us to decide, and not turned into anybody's bargaining chip." How was it possible for someone who had previously foughtso fiercely to have a calm conversation with me? He only did it so he could lureinto a trap.
"Of course, I could allow you two to continue to progress, but will you two really have any substantial outcfrom this? Why won't you choose to give him up now and choose riches instead? That's what a clever person ought to do." I shook my head and a faint smile appeared on my face. In that faint smile was an unwavering determination. "You might have been through in your life, Mr. Grayson Senior, but relationship matters could never be weighed from a profit standpoint.

However, what we shared wasn't something that another person could with easily sway with a few words. "It's not just simple attraction or Pet
rejection between Ethan and me. We are two souls on a journey to find LO mutual alignment. No matter what happens in the future, I'm willing to believe in the choices I've made, and bear responsible for them."
Even though I really wanted to know what Jack was hiding refused to be trampled on.
