Money was omnipotent, especially for the current John.

One hundred million was enough to solve his urgent need. Now that Master Xiao was willing to add another hundred million, with the money and the relationship with the Xiao family, John would be able to do whatever he wanted in C City.

John of course nodded in agreement.

Sue was still in the operating room. Shilla was extremely anxious. When she saw that John was still smiling, she was furious.

She punched John’s body a few times, hard.

“How can you still smile at this time? Where is Lauren, that jinx? Go and capture her. Get her to give the bone marrow to Sue right now. Nothing can happen to Sue anymore!”

Shilla was crying her heart out.

John was also very worried. But how could he offend Lauren so easily?

“We can’t capture Lauren. The Xiao family values her very much, especially since she just saved old Master Xiao. I think that if we want Lauren to help, we have to beg her together.”

John pursed his lips. He felt that this was the best way.

However, Shilla did not agree.

“That jinx Lauren came back to make life difficult for us. If we still go and beg her now, won’t that increase her ego?”

“Right now, she’s the only one who can save Sue. We have to go!”

Moreover, no matter what method he used, he had to send Lauren to the Xiao family!

However, they could not find Lauren.

At this moment, Lauren was in an internet cafe. She asked for a private room and went straight to the dark net.

[ I want to find Assasin K to help me kill someone. ]

She had an organization, and she had brothers and sisters in the organization. Right now, she needed to know what happened after her death, as well as the opinion of the industry on her death.

After a while, someone replied, “Assasin K died during a mission. Since you came because of her reputation, can her good friend Tom help you instead?”

Yes, most people came to engage her because of her battle on Thousand Island. Thousands of mercenaries, wolves, and lions. She was the only one who escaped.

Tom was her best friend. If Tom knew that she was not dead, he would do his best to help her.

“OK, I will only contact Tom in private. This is my number.”

Lauren reported her current number. After she saw that the message had been read, she deleted the post.

Turning off the phone, Lauren just left the internet cafe when a call came in.

“Hello, this is Tom. Do you need my help?”

He spoke fluent English.

Although she had not seen Tom only for a few days, it felt like a century to her.

“Tom, it’s me,” she replied in English.

The tone of her voice made Tom frown. “K?”

“Is that you, K? You’re not dead?”

Tom was the only person who could help her. There were some things that she could not do on her own.

“Tom, there are many things that I can’t explain to you on my phone. Do you think you can come to C City in Z Country soon? I’m using this number. Don’t let others know that I’ve contacted you.”

To Tom, Lauren’s voice was not the same as before, but her tone was the same as before.

After all, they had worked together for a long time.

“Okay.”

“Then I’ll hang up. Let’s text each other if there’s anything.” After saying that, Lauren hung up the phone.

“Your sister is so sick in the hospital. How can you have the mood to come to the internet cafe to surf the Internet?”

As soon as Lauren hung up the phone, Shilla’s reproach and reprimands were ringing around her ears.

Even though John had warned Shilla, Shilla could not suppress her anger.

They had searched everywhere for her, but could not find her. In the end, they could only locate her with GPS. Who would have thought that Lauren was actually in the internet cafe!

Shilla angrily went forward and was about to raise her hand on her but she was stopped by John, who pulled her behind him again.

“I know you’re angry. All these years, you hated us for throwing you to the countryside, but we had our reasons back then. Your sister has been spoiled by us since she was young. She doesn’t have a bad heart. Lauren, I can give you everything you want. Can you save your sister first?”

John begged Lauren to save her. His attitude had changed.

Lauren’s eyes remained cold the whole time.

Sue’s situation was not like this only now. From the first day she returned to the Lu family, John did not realize their mistake. Now he even tried to pressure her?

Even when she was in the hospital, if it were not for Master Xiao, the people that John brought would have already started fighting with her..
