SWNOVELS Chapter 1045
Chapter 1045 Do You Have Any Evidence?
Even though the two of them whispered in hushed tones, the room was so small that their words could still be heard.
Jerry followed the sound and glanced over. When he saw Nicole's face, a layer of surprise flickered in his eyes.
The woman had a fair complexion without a trace of makeup, yet her delicate countenance exuded a different kind of allure. It was truly captivating to witness her face turning red as she appeared charming and coquettish.
Jerry's gaze fell greedily upon Nicole. He licked his lips and his throat moved slightly to reveal his unmistakable desire.
Colton couldn't help but furrow his brow as he observed Jerry's expression. He reached out and clasped Nicole's slender waist. His dark and ink-like eyes bored into the man, emanating a potent warning. Jerry retracted his gaze and chuckled. "I never expected President Gardner to get such a beautiful woman. She's pure and alluring, which suits my taste."
Colton raised his eyebrow as his eyes filled with coldness. His thin lips curved slightly as he said, "She's my wife."
Jerry relaxed his brows and shook his head with a smile. "Well, that's a shame. I thought she was your lover. Or else I could have had some fun with her for a couple of days."
That caused Colton's expression to grow even darker, and his hand hanging by his side started to tighten slightly.
Nicole was afraid that he would get angry, so she quickly reached out and embraced his neck, looking up at Jerry with a faint smile on her face. She said, "Not all women are willing to sleep with you, Mr. Jerry. It's better for you to choose women who are willing."
Jerry clicked his tongue and casually took out a cigarette from his pocket. He lit it and looked directly at her, his naked gaze sweeping back and forth. "As a man, we like to conquer women we can't have." Nicole silently rolled her eyes. This man is beyond help; he is incorrigibly lecherous.
Colton shifted his gaze back to the cards. Thanks to Nicole's soothing words, his anger had subsided a little. Right now, Wendy was still in his hands, so he couldn't afford to lose his temper. "What are we playing?" he asked in a deep voice.
"Five-card draw, high-low." Jerry raised an eyebrow as he had never lost at cards. He reached out and pushed the chips on the table. "1 million each, so a total of 100 million. I guess it's still a small change for you since you have hundreds of billions."
For Colton, who had already amassed billions, that 100 million was truly a trivial amount. "Let's get started," he said as he rolled up his sleeve.
Nicole helped him roll up the other sleeve to reveal a valuable watch.
Both of them shuffled the cards, and they each drew five cards from the deck. Colton got straight to the point and said, "We've never had any conflicts before. I don't know why you kidnapped my sister." Jerry chuckled lightly but didn't admit it. "What evidence do you have to claim that I kidnapped your sister?"
Colton remained calm, showing no signs of impatience. He took out a cigarette just like Jerry had and lit it. At that, he exuded a very indulgent and uninhibited aura with a woman in his arms.
"We're both reasonable people. Let's be frank. Your people kidnapped my sister, and you know the power of the Gardner Family. If we really engage in a confrontation, you won't stand a chance." Colton squinted as his aura was imposing and dominating.
"Indeed. But President Gardner, aren't you afraid of me laying a hand on your sister? Don't forget, I not only deal in weapons but also drugs. If someone gets involved in that stuff, their life will be ruined," Jerry threatened.
Nicole carefully observed Colton's expression and noticed that he showed no signs of fear. She heard him chuckle softly and say, "If you really want to do it, then go ahead. Would you still be here talking to me if that were the case? Gardner Corporation, Wolf, Hawk Organization, Untold, Lome, as well as Pioneers, do you think you and Undercity alone stand a chance?"
