Mr. Mysterious's Spontaneous Bride

Chapter 126 The Agreement

"After you start working, you just need to sit there until it's time to leave. Occasionally, to deal with inspections, you may need to pretend, but these are minor things, happening only a few times in a few months." Kara explained it thoroughly, capturing the interest of Grandpa and Grandma Jones. Doing nothing and receiving so much money every month—what's not to like? Amara, however, held a skeptical attitude toward this matter. She questioned Kara, "How long have you been working there?" "Two years," Kara answered sincerely. "Even when I was pregnant and gave birth, they didn't fire me. You see, isn't it good?" "What a fantastic company!" Harry's parents clapped their thighs, happily dancing. "Kara, quickly go and ask when we start working." Kara nodded. "I'll go back to the company now. Wait for me; I'll have news soon." The Jones family practically half-carried Kara out in front of Amara, who wanted to protest but was suppressed by Harry’s parents. "Amara, once our jobs stabilize, we'll decide whether to cut off Harry from them." Amara stared at Harry leaving, full of unwillingness. "He's like this now; how could he possibly listen to you in the future?" "Why wouldn't he?" Grandpa Jones was very confident. "Back then, we forced them apart. Harry listens to us the most. Rest assured." After much persuasion, they managed to calm Amara down. On the other side, Harry accompanied Kara to the city center. As soon as Kara left Harry's sight, she turned into a coffee shop. There, Sanders saw her and gestured for her to go to the private room on the second floor. Kara went to the second floor, where Assistant Luke checked her for listening devices. "Miss Kara, please come in." After taking her phone, Assistant Luke smiled as he opened the door for her. Kara walked into the room, and there, sitting in a wheelchair, was Cato Alter, looking out the window. "President Alter." Kara called softly. For some reason, she looked at his back with silent respect and fear. The place she mentioned, Northern Myanmar Northern Myanmar, was a treacherous location where even the children of top tycoons might not emerge unscathed. But Cato Alter not only saved her but also rescued her parents. Regarding this lifesaver, Kara had nothing to say, just hoping to assist him to the best of her ability. In contemplation, she saw Cato Alter turning around. His eyes were cold, and his smile lacked conviction. Frightened, Kara took two steps back. "What would you like to drink?" Shawn ignored her fear. Collecting herself, Kara whispered, "Can I have a Coconut Latte?" Shawn paused, and his eyebrows faintly furrowed. Shortly after, he called Assistant Luke. "Go to the next room and buy Miss Kara a Coconut Latte. Also..." His tone hesitated slightly. Looking at Kara's weak and pale face, he added, "have the doctor wait downstairs. In case Miss Kara feels unwell after drinking the iced beverage." "Yes!" Luke quickly went to do it. Kara was moved by everything he did, her eyes turning red. She said, "President Alter, why would you use your own money to lure the Jones family into the trap? They don't deserve it!" Shawn swirled the red wine in his hand casually and said, "Do you think those debt collectors are just hooligans?" "Uh..." Shawn summoned Sanders again. The next moment, the door opened, and Sanders appeared with a group of people. Kara's pupils widened. "Weren't you the debt collector?" As the words fell, the bodyguards behind Sanders burst into laughter, their faces grinning like huskies. "Miss Kara, did I act well? I told you I'm the best actor in the whole performance!" Kara: "...""Turns out, President Alter had already started planning." She silently added. At that moment, Assistant Luke brought the Coconut Latte. He also didn't forget to give a cup to their hardworking fellow brothers. The brothers were as happy as a bunch of little dogs, enjoying their favorite junk food and playing joyfully. When it was Sanders's turn, Assistant Luke only had one cup in his hands. He pretended to offer it to Sanders. "I knew you love me the most." When Sanders, with a smiling face, was about to take the Coconut Latte, Assistant Luke directly put the drink into his own mouth. Sanders's smile disappeared. "Assistant Luke!" He imitated Shawn's tone but was fiercely glared at by Shawn. Sanders immediately drooped and silently turned away. Before leaving, he also took the last cup of Coconut Latte and ran away happily. Kara stared wide-eyed at everything happening in front of her, finding it hard to believe. To be honest, she always thought that Cato Alter was, in fact, a gangster, but now... "President Alter, you said after it's done..." Assistant Luke closed the door, smiling as he showed her a passport. "This is the passport we've processed for you. The child's passport is still in progress; it's a bit troublesome. Once everything is done, I believe everything will be in order." Kara stared at the passport in her hand in disbelief, realizing that soon she would be able to go to England. If possible, she wouldn't come back. "At that time, we'll give you some money, and we'll invest in your business, so you can live worry-free in England and raise your child well." "What about my parents?" Kara asked. Strictly speaking, her husband's parents. "They... I still need them to handle some things for me." Shawn's expression still carried a smile, but his eyes were colder. "After everything is settled, I'll let them come and see you or stay with you together.""President Alter, I..." "Can you bring another child?" Shawn suddenly interrupted her. "Which child?" A possibility flashed in her mind. Her face turned pale, but after some thought, she nodded. "I can." "You're answering so decisively?" Shawn was surprised. "That's Zedd, the child of your enemy." Upon hearing this, Kara's face turned incredibly pale. Unpleasant memories overwhelmed her, and her heart suddenly ached uncontrollably. If it weren't for Harry, she wouldn't be in such a miserable state! It's all because of him! If it weren't for him losing the bet that year, she wouldn't have been gang-raped by the underworld. If it weren't for him, the money on her body wouldn't have been swindled! The current childhood sweetheart, the current careful care, is just to make up for the debts owed back then! If it weren't for her meeting her husband, she would have died in the hands of those bastards long ago. Unfortunately, her husband, in order to redeem her, incurred a huge debt, and they wouldn't have been deceived and sold to Northern Myanmar. In the end, her husband died there! If it weren't for Cato Alter sending someone to rescue her, she and the child in her belly would have been lost. With such a debt of gratitude, even if Kara knew that Cato Alter needed her help, she would gladly assist. It was both an opportunity for revenge and a chance to gain his protection, something she was willing to do, and it was her honor. She didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was Cato Alter, the heavenly figure who pulled her out of Northern Myanmar! If he was willing to help her, she would willingly become the sword in his hand. But Zedd... Thinking of this, Kara smiled bitterly. "The child is innocent." "Good." Shawn was very satisfied with her answer. He believed she would take good care of the child, and even if she couldn't, his people would monitor her closely. "The doctor is waiting downstairs. Before leaving, let the doctor examine you thoroughly to make sure you're in good health."Shawn began giving the order to leave. Kara stood in place, wanting to ask many questions but ultimately remained silent. As she walked out of the door, she turned back and looked at Shawn, who was still drinking absentmindedly. She said, "President Alter, be careful in the future and please take care of yourself." She probably wouldn't see him again. Once everything was over, she would be sent away immediately. This was the agreement between them. So, as someone who had received his favor, she needed to express her concern. "..." Shawn was somewhat surprised. Kara shrugged and whispered, "My parents-in-law used to be gardeners in the Alter family when they were young. After the Alter family had an accident, all the servants in the Alter family were changed overnight, and my parents-in-law were no exception. They were sent to a very remote mountain area and monitored for several years. It took a lot of effort for them to escape." "They mentioned the Alter family's past in casual conversations. They said your mother was a particularly gentle woman, and they've always regretted what happened later. Unfortunately, their strength was too weak, and they could only hide their names." At this point, Kara took the necklace from the child's chest and placed it in front of Shawn. "I believe President Alter will take good care of them. If they still don't want to reveal the truth, you can give them this necklace. I believe they will speak the truth for the sake of the child." With that, she bowed deeply to Cato Alter. The man watched her leave, and after a while, his gaze met with Assistant Luke's. "From her words, her parents-in-law should have a lot of evidence. Do as she said." "Yes!" ***
