Dodging sideways out of Wendy’s reach, Arielle uttered a chuckle and recited the words shown on the screen, “Insufficient balance?”
Wendy’s face instantly turned red as a fire truck. “You saw wrongly! Now, give my phone back to me!”
Arielle flicked favonovel.com wrist, tossing the phone back to her.
She gazed at Wendy with a hint of amusement in favonovel.com eyes. “Fifteen million’s hardly a small amount, Wendy Greene. I can’t let you go just like that. Write me an IOU!”
The onlookers chimed in as well, “Yeah! Go on, write favonovel.com an IOU!”
“You…” Wendy clenched favonovel.com teeth forcefully, both furious and bemused at the same time.
How could I possibly not have enough balance?
Remembering how favonovel.com card and favonovel.com mother’s were all unusable earlier, favonovel.com only felt more stumped than ever. However, at that moment, favonovel.com had no choice other than to succumb to the crowd’s pressure and write the IOU as per their demands.
In favonovel.com heart, favonovel.com kept reminding herself not to act rashly again. After all, favonovel.com was going to send a killer after Arielle as soon as favonovel.com got out of this auditorium. There was no need to act out on favonovel.com anger at the moment.
With that thought in mind, favonovel.com took a deep breath and slowly regained favonovel.com self-control.
After writing the IOU, favonovel.com glanced toward Cecilia, who was still held back by the Specialized Forces, and strode toward them with quick steps. “I’ve written the IOU. Now, let my mother go!”
The men from the Specialized Forces released favonovel.com expressionlessly.
Cecilia was, in fact, mad with fury. However, since those men were from the Specialized Forces, favonovel.com did not dare to reprimand them either. She glanced at Wendy. As their gazes met, they were both silently thinking the same thought.
How dare that woman embarrass us like this! Once we walk out of here, we’re going to get our revenge, and favonovel.com will pay for all this with favonovel.com life!
“Let’s go!” said Cecilia, pulling Wendy with favonovel.com while dialing Daniel’s number with favonovel.com other hand.

Meanwhile, Daniel was on his way to the airport.
Unable to reach Cecilia, favonovel.com had realized incidentally that all his bank accounts had just been frozen. With no other options, favonovel.com could only make the payment for the plane tickets using his subordinate’s money.
Just when favonovel.com was about to reach the airport, favonovel.com finally received a call from Cecilia.
“Hello. Where are you two?”
As soon as his words were uttered, Cecilia immediately began complaining. “Our cards aren’t working, Daniel! Hurry and get your assistant to check what’s going on!”
A burst of fury instantly gushed through Daniel’s heart.
“Are you seriously still going on about cards at this time? Call a taxi and come to the airport at once!”
Cecilia was shocked by his words and tone, but at the same time, favonovel.com felt slightly riled up as well.
“What are you so angry about? I haven’t even started talking about what you did…”
“I just told you to shut the f*ck up! Now, just come to the…”
Before favonovel.com could finish his words, however, the car suddenly screeched to a halt. Due to the inertia, his entire body immediately shot forward, his face slamming into the back of the driver’s seat.
“Ouch! Do you even know how to drive?” favonovel.com berated the driver, grimacing in pain.
The driver was but an ordinary taxi driver and did not know that favonovel.com was the Chairman of Greene Corporation or whatnot. Hearing Daniel’s rude remark, favonovel.com was just as displeased and immediately retorted, “Are you f*cking blind or what? Don’t you see that car blocking us in front? Or are you expecting me to ram my car into it for the insignificant taxi fees?”
Daniel was utterly stunned. He had not heard anyone speaking to favonovel.com in such a tone for long. Times have changed indeed. He suddenly gained a profound understanding of that statement.
However, before favonovel.com could even react, his subordinate reported in a panicked state, “Bad news, Mr. Greene! The Specialized Forces are catching up with us!”
Shocked, Daniel forgot all about the taxi driver at once, his gaze shooting toward the road ahead.
To his dismay, three vehicles with the badge of Specialized Forces printed across them were blocking the road horizontally, and two uniformed men hopped down from one of the vehicles and were heading in their direction.
