Chapter 1364: Why Do You Care About Her So Much?

Chapter 1364: Chapter 1364: Why Do You Care About Her So Much?

The person on the other end of the phone chuckled softly, "Stupid people have long since died. It doesn’t surprise me that he would come looking. With his intelligence, the location of the base will be discovered sooner or later."

"Oh? From what you’re saying, you’ve already got a backup plan?" Alaric Wood leaned lazily on the sofa, a cold smile playing on his sinister face.

"No, if it’s just an empty shell, it won’t fool Mason Nightshade, not to mention all my research is here. It’s impossible to evacuate everything. I can’t abandon years of work. The research has made such significant progress; at this critical moment, I won’t leave. Doesn’t Mason Nightshade have someone he cares about?"

At these words, Alaric Wood’s eyes instantly darkened, "Don’t think about touching her!"

The other end chuckled again, "She’s Mason Nightshade’s woman. Why do you care so much about her?"

Probably sensing Alaric Wood’s low mood, the other end added, "You haven’t touched her yet, have you? A man doesn’t need to be so refined all the time. Sometimes women prefer a rougher man. Once you have her body, in time, her heart will naturally follow.

Being a gentleman isn’t used this way."

"My affairs are none of your concern," Alaric Wood said with a grim tone, "You are not allowed to touch her, unless you want me to deal with you."

"She won’t be harmed, but to kill Mason Nightshade, I need to use her a bit. You wouldn’t begrudge that, would you? Heh... the beauty’s curse, think about it."

Although the man said for him to consider, Alaric Wood knew with the man’s tactics, once he had no use, he would be eliminated directly.

Inside a mysterious villa.

The man who hung up the phone chuckled, and a person beside him spoke discontentedly, "You saved his life back then, and yet he dares to talk to you like that over a woman."

"No matter." Stephen waved his hand, "This Aurelia Shaw, I’m actually a bit curious about her."

The last impression Aurelia Shaw left him was that of a wildcat, no matter how you tame it, it won’t become obedient.

Originally, he didn’t take it to heart, but now he really wanted to get to know this woman better.

...

Top-floor meeting room of HL Film Group.

Grayson Quinn yawned lazily. Inside, many people were seated, including not only HL employees but also people from BBA Television. However, Grayson Quinn wasn’t interested in such tedious meetings; he glanced at the man next to him.

Mason Nightshade’s expression was calm, his gaze indifferent, staring at the file in his hand, eyebrows furrowed in seriousness.

Grayson Quinn admired Mason Nightshade from the bottom of his heart.

To attend such a meeting with such seriousness.

Weren’t they here for a mission? Brother Nightshade was too serious, making it seem like they were actually here for business talks.

Just then, the door was knocked and pushed open.

Aurelia Shaw had arranged to discuss contract signing with Stephen in the afternoon, but she didn’t expect the meeting room to be so crowded, and Mason Nightshade was there too.

Grayson Quinn’s gaze instantly cooled.

Just when he was feeling bored, something interesting happened.

"Little Aurelia, come, sit here!" Grayson Quinn pulled out the chair beside him, smiling like a beautiful fairy, and waved.

Everyone’s gaze instantly turned to Aurelia Shaw. She kept her eyes straightforward, pulled out an empty chair, and sat down.

Grayson Quinn immediately leaned over.

Whispering in her ear, he asked, "Why are you avoiding me?"

"You’re a plague god, if I don’t avoid you, what if your bad luck rubs off on me?" Aurelia Shaw said with a calm face.

Grayson Quinn smirked, "When it comes to plague gods, who can compare to you and Mason Nightshade?"

Aurelia Shaw’s gaze swept over Mason Nightshade, carrying an implied threat.
