Chapter 1435
Before getting into the car, Molly vaguely sensed something was wrong. She seemed to have
overlooked something important and thus subconsciously looked back at Selon and others.
The three were still standing there looking her way.
Selon even waved goodbye to her.
Molly waved back, but her attention was drawn to Vaughn.
She didn't know why, but this man gave her a familiar feeling.
'Have I met him before?'
She couldn't remember and had to give up.
On the way back, she was in a fairly good mood.
Lesley glanced at her and said, "What does this friend of yours do? I can tell that the staff on the island
are nice to him."
Molly froze. For a moment, she didn't know how to explain.
"Molly," Lesley continued, "I consider you a friend and believe what you told me, but your friends don't
seem like ordinary people. They are all deeply involved with the research base.”
Her tone turned cold for the latter half of her speech.Sensitive enough to catch it, Molly looked over and said," You don't have to beat around the bush. Just
get it to the point."
Lesley looked ahead and said after a moment of silence," I've heard of the Shepards before. This
surname means top echelon in the research base."
Molly wasn't surprised by this revelation at all.
After all, the Shepard family and the Martial Art Union had been in cahoots for a long time.
And she was afraid that the events today had led to Lesley's misunderstanding.
She tried to explain, but Lesley's face suddenly turned icy.
She slammed on the gas pedal, and the car lurched forward.
Molly was caught off guard. The force of the acceleration threw her forward and then flung her back.
"Lesley?"
She was flabbergasted.
But Lesley ignored her. Her foot went down further, and the car was running at a breakneck speed.
Behind them, Rhett hadn't expected Lesley to accelerate. At first, he could keep up.
As time went by, the traffic was getting heavier, and he was soon left far behind.
When he reached a fork in the road, he lost track of them.
Lesley seemed quite familiar with the roads of the island, and the route she took was off the beaten
path.She took Molly to a cliff by the sea and finally stopped the car.
Molly was suffering from the aftershock, and her stomach was churning from the bumpy journey.
Before she could overcome her sickness, she felt the tip of a dagger on her throat.
She froze and looked at the woman in the driver's seat.
At that point, Lesley's face was frosty, and her wonted elegance was gone.
She looked like a different person.
"What do you mean by this?"
Molly asked in confusion.
Lesley's tone was sullen as she spoke, "What's your purpose in approaching me? Do you want to get
information from my mouth?"
Molly remained composed. She was not frightened at all.
"No," she said softly.
"Liar!" Lesley spat. "If that's not the case, how did you get involved with the Shepard family? Do you
have any idea how many harmful products they've developed with the Martial
Art Union?
"And that man, Eaton. Were you pretending to be on bad terms with him just to fool me? The whole
charade yesterday was just an act for my benefit, wasn't it?"Lesley's voice was dripping with venom. Her eyes were blazing with hatred as she exerted more
strength on the dagger.
