It was under Flossie Wright’s orders that from now on, this woman was not allowed into the campsite.
When Ailin saw Flossie, her face instinctively revealed a provocative smile, but very quickly, upon noticing Perry Reed following behind Flossie, all her expressions immediately retracted.
A change in just one second.
From the previously enchanting and charming woman, she instantly turned into a calm and composed subordinate.
In front of Perry Reed, that Fox Charm Technique was merely a presence that aroused disgust.
With a solemn face, Ailin walked to Perry Reed’s side, greeting him with considerable respect.
Perry Reed glanced at him coolly.
Ailin quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at him, and spoke briefly, "The price has been negotiated, and the ’goods’ will start moving tomorrow."
Perry Reed responded indifferently.
Then he gave Flossie Wright a glance.
Originally standing at the door, Flossie Wright received this subtle hint, her brow slightly twitching without understanding what was being concealed, yet she didn’t take it to heart, and casually walked into the campsite.
Ailin remained quietly standing in place.
Without Perry Reed speaking, Ailin dared not utter a sound casually.
This was the prestige belonging to the leader of DARK.
Just the aura alone was something few dared to oppose.
"I heard your Chinese name is Ailin?" Perry Reed asked in Chinese, clearly deviating from what Ailin expected.
Raising her eyes in surprise, Ailin responded.
"Which two characters?"
With his hand in his pocket, Perry Reed’s tone was cold.
Frowning slightly, Ailin hesitated for a moment before honestly saying, "The ’Ai’ from ’mugwort,’ and the ’Lin’ from ’fame.’"
"You fancy Glenn Hutchinson?" Perry Reed asked, narrowing his eyes.

Last night, hearing Flossie Wright mention it, he recalled this subordinate, who had found Flossie Wright for him and deserved recognition, had a Chinese name that sparked imagination.
Yet, he only remembered she had just one encounter with Glenn Hutchinson.
"Such a high-quality man..." Ailin only said half the sentence.
To say she liked him much, naturally, wouldn’t go that far.
It was just a mere acquaintance.
But ultimately, it lingered in the mind.
When choosing a Chinese name, she inevitably thought of that rugged and stern man and on impulse used such a name.
Never expected that Silvery would take note of it.
A little bit surprised in her heart.
Perry Reed stepped forward, raised his hand, and pinched Ailin’s chin, forcing her head up.
Ailin remained silent.
"You fancy Glenn Hutchinson, as long as you don’t act out of line, I don’t care." His tone stayed even as he said this, and instantly a fierce light flashed in Perry Reed’s eyes, cold and dangerous as a bundle of densely packed needles stabbing towards Ailin.
Slightly pausing, Perry Reed continued, "However, if you dare to target her because of this again, your life won’t be spared."
Cold words, freezing threats piercing to the bone.
After finishing, he withdrew his hand.
Circling around her, Perry Reed headed straight towards the campsite.
Ailin stood in place, dazed for a long, long time, her heart jumping to her throat before slowly settling back into place.
Raising her hand, Ailin touched her chin, feeling intense pain.
It felt as if her bones were about to be crushed.
However, in those alluring eyes, there wasn’t the slightest semblance of hate or anger, instead, replaced by an almost perverse desire.
