"Did you come to see me for something?"
Raising an eyebrow, Flossie Wright asked directly.
She spoke in English.
People like them wouldn’t visit unless there was a purpose, and her sudden visit clearly wasn’t just to ask about the employer, have a chat, or catch up.
Especially—
The woman in front of her.
With an entrancing appearance and a ruthless heart, she was a typical femme fatale, not the type to have the kindness to inquire about the employer’s welfare.
Of course, among their kind, there was a sense of loyalty. Having paid for a job to be done, Flossie didn’t suspect Adelaide was there to kill her.
"Flossie Wright?" Adelaide suddenly asked.
Her voice was very pleasing, with a seductive tone, leisurely and melodious.
"Yes." Flossie replied without hesitation.
For them, investigating the client was considered a violation, but the situation was different now,
"Client?" Adelaide raised an eyebrow.
Flossie remained unfazed.
"I think you should know," Adelaide stepped forward a few paces, a bewitching smile on her face, while her scrutinizing gaze remained unwavering, "that we did not complete your mission."
Flossie replied coolly, looking up at her.
In fact, their heights were similar, but with Adelaide wearing stiletto heels nearly ten centimeters tall, she towered half a head above Flossie, making Flossie have to look up.
"I’m sorry to inform you," Adelaide curved her lips, speaking slowly, "that your target, Andrew, right? Basil has decided not to eliminate him."
"Oh?"
𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Flossie raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Someone wants to take care of Andrew personally, so..."
Adelaide drew out her words but didn’t explain further.
The smart ones could guess the answer.
Flossie’s eyes curved slightly.
She knew the specifics too.
When Erina Taylor was around, she had introduced Basil and Nail (Daisy Deacon) to each other, and they had some acquaintance.
This time, when Basil went to West Hare, he surely met Nail, and the one who wants to kill Andrew the most is undoubtedly Nail.
As long as Nail voiced her thoughts, Basil would likely give up the mission out of that bit of friendship, even though it might tarnish their reputation a little.
Understanding all the relationships, Flossie could figure out the general situation with a little thought.
So, Flossie responded blandly.
Now, looking at her serene face, Adelaide couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
She spent so much money just to get rid of Andrew, but now that the mission failed, and Andrew lives freely, her reaction was so calm?
Before coming here, Basil told her to observe this woman. Originally, she hadn’t paid much attention, but now witnessing this unexpected reaction, she was genuinely surprised.
Initially—
She had organized many words to persuade her.
"Did you come to see me just to inform this?"
Her gaze swept leisurely across Adelaide, Flossie slightly narrowed her eyes, raising some doubts toward Adelaide.
