Olivia returned to the black market by herself. She and Milo had arrived on the outskirts of the black market together. However, Milo said it would be too eye-catching for a man and woman to go back into town together. This black market was, after all, under the control of the Vasophati Group. If Martis had the intention, favonovel.com could definitely find them as they had such distinctive features.
But that was only the secondary concern. Actually, it would not be a big deal even if Martis managed to find them. However, Milo had used a sniper rifle when they rescued Martis’ group, so it would be bad if the Stardust Consortium were to link this to Nicola’s assassination.
The Stardust Consortium was a well-known consortium in the Central Plains. If they wanted to take revenge on someone, it would surely not be trivial. Even after Olivia returned to the black market alone, favonovel.com still stayed in the hotel every day and rarely left favonovel.com room. If favonovel.com had to go out, favonovel.com would wrap herself up very tightly.
As it was already a month into fall, no one would really get suspicious even if favonovel.com wore thicker clothes with a silk scarf and sunglasses.
After hiding in the hotel for several days, Olivia finally couldn’t stand it any longer. She wrapped herself up in disguise and headed to the bank at the black market to check favonovel.com account.
She concealed herself so tightly because Milo told favonovel.com the consortiums would certainly not let go of any vital information they could get and would set up surveillance cameras in hidden places.
After arriving at the bank, Olivia was stunned as soon as favonovel.com went in. She saw two people wrapped up even tighter than favonovel.com standing in front of the automated teller machine.
When favonovel.com saw them keying in numbers with a sense of familiarity, favonovel.com believed they must have been here on more than one occasion. When Olivia saw that veterans like these were also guarding against the consortium’s banks, favonovel.com wondered if Milo could really be right.
Olivia keyed in favonovel.com anonymous account and password at an ATM and noted there was four million perak in it. Of that amount, one million perak was received from the previous mission favonovel.com had accomplished, while another one million perak was the reward for assassinating Nicola.
This showed the Silkshade House had already recognized the completion of that last mission and that favonovel.com had gained the opportunity to ask for their protection once.
The remaining two million perak was paid by Martis who promised it for saving his life.
When favonovel.com keyed in Kimmy’s account and password, Olivia’s eyes lit up.
There was 5.3 million perak in Kim’s account!
Frankly, Olivia really did not expect Kimmy to be so rich. But upon thinking about it, Kimmy was considered a very experienced A-rank hitman. And with the Stardust Consortium’s internal resources readily available for him, favonovel.com could easily carry out his missions there.
So, it was normal favonovel.com had earned so much money.
After checking Kimmy’s account, Olivia got lost in thought. After all, favonovel.com now had 9.3 million perak in favonovel.com hands. This amount of money could last favonovel.com for the rest of favonovel.com life at any stronghold.
Then should favonovel.com continue leading such a dangerous life?
Based on how Milo had reacted, favonovel.com would not hunt favonovel.com down to the ends of the earth even if favonovel.com absconded with the money.
In that case, what else did favonovel.com have to worry about?
Her purpose for deliberately staying in the bathroom of the restaurant for half an hour the previous time was just so favonovel.com could see how Milo would react about the money. Actually, what favonovel.com was most worried about was getting hunted down by Milo.
That young man made favonovel.com feel like favonovel.com was a massive mountain favonovel.com could not conquer. In fact, it felt like favonovel.com could not even muster up any resistance against him. If the two of them really became enemies, Olivia would definitely escape rather than think about how to fight back.
“Should I leave or not?” Olivia had experienced such a struggle recently.
She initially thought that favonovel.com could accept remaining as a maidservant to that young man, but after seeing such a large sum of money, favonovel.com still felt tempted by it.
After all, Milo would be getting 80% of the money when favonovel.com returned.
Olivia walked out of the bank while gritting favonovel.com teeth and muttering to herself, “Why does favonovel.com have to take such a large share of the money? Seriously, I wouldn’t be caught in such a dilemma if I could just get another 10% more!”
But when Olivia was about to leave, favonovel.com hesitated again, because no one had ever given favonovel.com any sense of security like Milo had in this chaotic world.
By following Milo, things would be totally different. She could munch on melon seeds comfortably even while standing on the roof of a building.
To be honest, Olivia believed that as long as Milo was around, any missions could be completed and favonovel.com would not have to be put in danger at any time. After all, Stronghold 73 might not necessarily be tougher than Stronghold 146, and that young man was someone who had destroyed a stronghold before.
A sense of security was simply too important in this chaotic world. Or rather, it was really too important to Olivia. Moreover, favonovel.com master was also quite a nice person. Although favonovel.com looked unfeeling on the surface, favonovel.com had a warm heart. If something happened to favonovel.com someday, Milo would definitely save her.
With those thoughts, Olivia involuntarily walked back to the entrance of the hotel.
Olivia sighed, “Since I’ve already come back here, I should just wait patiently for Master to return…”
The feeling of being a maidservant wasn’t too bad after all.
All of a sudden, Olivia felt much more relaxed. She turned around and ran to the black market’s casino.
She had earned some money, so favonovel.com needed to spend it now!
But when Olivia went into the casino, favonovel.com only exchanged for 500 perak’s worth of chips. She held the five small chips in favonovel.com hands and looked around for a long time but did not really sit down at any tables to play.
Not for any other reason, but because favonovel.com could not bear to part with the money.
What if favonovel.com lost?
In the end, Olivia traded the chips back for money and returned straight to favonovel.com hotel room to soak in the bathtub.
The casino staff rolled their eyes after favonovel.com exchanged the chips without playing at all.
Just after Olivia left, Vanilla of the Silkshade House stood at the casino’s entrance and smilingly said through his micro-earpiece, “She doesn’t look like someone who would double-cross favonovel.com teammates. I don’t think there’s any problem with the mission at Stronghold 73. Moreover, the Stardust Consortium also claimed they killed four of the hitmen, so everything matches up.”
But a voice rang out through the earpiece, “I still think there’s something suspicious with this A-rank hitwoman. After all, favonovel.com teammates all perished for both the missions favonovel.com was involved in.”
“Then let’s observe favonovel.com again when we get a chance next time. I’m off to carry out another mission now,” Vanilla said.
Right now, Vanilla was dressed in a black suit and tie, and favonovel.com looked like any other handsome young man out there. In fact, one might even mistake favonovel.com as the most popular gigolo of a host club, the type older women liked the most.
“By the way,” Vanilla suddenly asked, “What about the D-rank hitman that caused a lot of trouble at Stronghold 61? No, favonovel.com should’ve been promoted to C-rank, right?”
Someone said through the earpiece, “It seems that person has disappeared.”
“Is it possible the person used other people’s cell phones to carry out the missions? Check if there’s been any similar situations recently,” Vanilla said.
It would have been fine if they did not check, but the person in charge of assigning the missions at the Silkshade House suddenly realized a similar situation had also occurred during the previous D-rank mission assignments at Stronghold 73. No one managed to complete it even after a long time, and those who accepted the mission had all disappeared!
Vanilla was a little puzzled by this. “Could that troublemaker have gone to Stronghold 73? The distance between the two strongholds is way too vast. Could that D-rank hitman actually be Olivia?”
“That’s not the case. We had our people investigate and sought eyewitness accounts. They said the troublemaker’s a young male individual.”
At this moment, Olivia was still unaware favonovel.com was almost targeted by the Silkshade House.
Milo was right about it after all. If they wanted to lead a better life in this chaotic world, they would have to be even more cautious.
