Chapter 206: Reporter’s Imagination
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
It wasn’t hard to determine whether a canine had rabies. The symptoms were pretty obvious, so after Chen Zhao was mostly sure after contact that Wouter didn’t have rabies.
Wouter might have bitten the maid because she did something unfriendly. Wolves and dogs didn’t actually have that big of a difference, but humans instinctively feared wolves.
Wouter felt this fear and distrust. It hadn’t interacted with the outside world yet, so it didn’t know how to act with others and felt lonely.
Of course, for safety precautions, Chen Zhao still extracted some of Wouter’s saliva to test.
Just then, Normans suddenly said, “Selena, how about you sell me Wouter?”
“Can you afford it?” Selena looked at her arrogantly.
“Ten thousand dollars.”
“You think that’s enough for me?”
“Twenty thousand…30,000!” Normans kept raising the price. “Still not satisfied? Fifty thousand is my last price.” She narrowed her eyes. “If you don’t agree, I’ll make sure you can’t survive in Hollywood.”
Selena furrowed her brows at Normans. “Your family didn’t go bankrupt?”
“Ha…*sshole, you tell her,” Normans said, pointing at Chen Zhao.
“She’s my temporary assistant. Most of the time, I’m her coach. Weight loss coach.”
Selena’s expression turned awkward. She realized that her previous words had offended Normans.
Normans’ family wasn’t a simple wealthy family. If she really wanted to make Selena’s life hard, she’d be unable to do anything other than being a porn star in San Fernando Valley.
With Normans’ family’s abilities, they could definitely force her there.
“Do you promise you’ll treat Wouter well?”
“I don’t need to promise you anything. What right do you have to demand anything?” Normans was like an aggressive diva now.
Americans were materialistic. Rich people could do anything here, but Selena wasn’t rich at all. Even this house was a rental. She wasn’t indispensable in Hollywood either.
Countless girls would come to Hollywood with their dreams every day. Selena could be replaced at any time. Her current success was fragile too. People merely remembered the role that she played.
This role could be played by any girl. It was the role that gave life to her, rather than the other way around. Normans’ one word could shatter Selena’s success.
Normans successfully received ownership of Wouter, but…
“Why do I have to carry your pet? And why are you riding while I’m running?”
“I want you to train it for me. Make it as smart as White Ma and Black Ma, or like Amon. I don’t want my family to get hurt by it.”
“I’m your weight loss coach, not your family’s pet trainer.”
“One hundred thousand.”
“You can afford that?”
“No, but my dad can.”
Chen Zhao was troubled. He really wanted to yell at Normans that he didn’t want to serve her anymore, but he needed money more. Between going against his motives and money, he chose to go against his motives in the end.
Plus, it wasn’t really going against his motives. Making money was his motive, after all.
“How long do you need to train it?”
“Not sure. Keep it at my house first.”
“Do you need money really badly?” Normans suddenly asked.
“Why are you asking me that? You want to insult me with your money?”
“I’m not that bored.”
“No, I actually don’t mind if you insult me with your money,” Chen Zhao said shamelessly.
Wouter was very friendly with Chen Zhao, probably because he had Black Ma and White Ma’s scent on him.
Wolves couldn’t use dog leashes, but it hadn’t been trained yet, so Chen Zhao didn’t dare place it on the ground. If it started running, he might not be able to catch it.
If it hurt someone, it would be even more troublesome.
Because of today’s accident, Normans’ training intensity was lower than a few days ago. However, Chen Zhao still planned some exercises for her. If she was determined, she would train by herself even if he wasn’t with her.
When Chen Zhao walked out of Beverly Hills, a police car cruised by. It stopped in front of him.
“Chen, where you going?” David poked his head out.
“Home. You want to bring me back?”
“Sorry, I have to go meet an informer.” David noticed Wouter in Chen Zhao’s arms. “You have another new pet?”
“It’s not mine. I’m helping take care of it. I have to return it in a few days.” Chen Zhao patted Wouter’s head. Wouter obviously liked it and made happy rumbles. “Go work.”
“How about you get in and I drive you back after work?”
“Are you sure? Didn’t you say you’re meeting an informer? Would it be bad if I go?”
“No, it’s not some mafia mole. It’s just someone who provided information for a case.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
…
Neither of them discovered the car following them.
Kate followed the police car closely while talking to a recording pen. “It is 3:55 p.m. The target has gotten onto a police car. He seems to be connected to the police. This might explain why the target hasn’t been subject to legal sanctions after being an illegal doctor for so long.”
“Four-fifteen p.m. They got off at a Harry Bank. They seem to be meeting with someone.” Kate sat in the car and filmed with a high definition camera.
“Four-twenty, they entered the bank.”
Kate also followed them inside, hiding the camera in her jacket. She held the recording pen in her other hand, constantly describing the situation.
“That person must be a bank employee. He walked into his own office and took out a roll of film. Are they undergoing some unspeakable exchange? Perhaps the justice department should investigate the police for corrupt officers.”
Just then, an incident occurred…
A string of gunshots came from the hall. Four masked robbers charged into the bank. Kate felt someone yank her neck back. Heavy breaths sounded in her ears. Something pressed against her temple.
I’m held captive? Kate’s mind was completely blank.
The bank’s security guard fell into a puddle of blood right before her.
This evil group was robbing the bank!
