There was no one around.

Lauren saw the old man fainted. She wanted to leave, but her conscience got the better of her. Moreover, it was an old man. She could not ignore it.

Lauren used all her strength to help the old man up and went directly to the A&E building.

However, just as she left, a group of men in black came.

One of the men in black looked around but could not find anything. He made a phone call and said, “Not good, the Master is missing.”



Lauren went with the old man to the A&E. As the person who sent the old man there, Lauren had to accompany the old man for his checkups and tests.

The doctor asked her to inform the old man’s family. The old man did not even have a cellphone on him, so Lauren could not leave.

Time passed by slowly. John had called her a few times to urge her.

Lauren’s impatience rose. When she was about to go out to answer the phone, she was surrounded by a large group of men in black.

Lauren put away her cellphone and looked at the men in black in front of her vigilantly. She clenched her fists and was ready to fight.

“Did you save my grandfather?”

Before she could make a move, a man wearing a silver mask sitting in a wheelchair was wheeled out from behind these people.

The outline of his face, the sound of his voice, and the man’s height.

The man had a good foundation.

As an assassin, she had a hobby, which was to look at beautiful men. For a moment, Lauren was very interested in the face behind the mask.

“Miss, can you hear me?” Seeing that Lauren did not respond, the man frowned and asked Lauren in a low voice.

Lauren came back to her senses and felt embarrassed for the first time.

However, she held her head high and said, “I’m not deaf, of course, I can hear you. Your grandfather just happened to faint in front of me.”

What she meant was that if it was not a coincidence, she would not have saved him.

The man nodded and a man in a black suit brought a check to Lauren. “This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it.”

Lauren glanced at the number on the check. 500,000.

How generous!

Lauren wanted to take it. After all, she was as poor as dogsh*t right now. The more money she had, the better.

But she held back in the end.

After taking the money, would this man in front of her bring her trouble?

Nowadays, one must be wary of others.

It was too much of a coincidence that the old man fainted in front of her. It was also very sudden for the masked man to give her money. And also she suddenly thought of this man with the surname “Gu” who wanted her dead.

Lauren felt that there were many mysteries surrounding her that she had not solved yet.

“It’s nothing. As long as your grandfather is fine, I’ll be leaving first.” Lauren did not take the check. After saying that, she turned around and was about to walk out of the ward.

The masked man noticed Lauren’s expression. She clearly wanted it just now.

“Miss, do you find that the amount is too little?”

The man’s words made Lauren stop in her tracks.

She was short of money and loved money, but she was not the kind of person who would unfairly set a high price, especially when it came to such matters!

“The 500,000 you gave is a little too much, and your identities are unknown.”

Lauren did not want to say anything more to the man. After she said that she wanted to leave, the man gestured for the bodyguards to retreat to the sides.

After Lauren left, the masked man instructed the people beside him, “Do a check on her.”

“Yes.”

The subordinate immediately got to work. In less than five minutes, Lauren’s identity and information was presented in detail in front of the masked man.

Lauren was 19 years old, the eldest daughter of the Lu family. She had been abandoned in the countryside since she was young to live with her grandmother.

After her grandmother died, she was brought back to the Lu family.

“Young Master, at the same time, she is also your betrothed.”

The subordinate pursed his lips and mentioned again.

The masked man drawled and seemed to laugh. “Is that so?”

“Yes, your original wife-to-be was supposed to be Sue, but Sue has leukemia, so she won’t be able to live for more than a few days. In addition, after Sue heard about your condition, she was not willing to marry you.”

“Didn’t Master find someone to read your astrological signs with Miss Sue? Miss Sue was not willing, so the Lu family gave the fortune teller Lauren’s details and she was more compatible with you.”

The masked man did not speak, and there was a smirk on his face.

So, this was God’s will, sending his betrothed to him for him to take a look in advance?

However, it could not be denied that Lauren was more of a character than Sue. He had heard every word that was said just now.

“Yu Chen, do you think Grandpa would be very happy if he knew that the person who saved him was his granddaughter-in-law?” The man suddenly said playfully..
