Chapter 202 The conspiracy made by three
Joey felt guilty. She replied, almost subconsciously, “I…I’m trying on the engagement dress.”
She knew it was wrong to lie to Allen, but she was afraid that he would be mad at her if he knew she
had gone to see Ben Hawk. But it seemed that the more careful she was, the worse things got.
Sitting behind the wheel, Allen looked at Joey not far away and tightened his grip on the wheel with his
left hand. His right hand suddenly felt weak with the phone in it. He didn’t even have the strength to
question her in the face of her lie. He paused for a while and smiled self-mockingly, “Well, keeping
trying it on.”
Then he hung up the phone.
“Allen, hello…”
Joey was surprised that Allen had hung up so quickly. He had never hung up on her before. He had
always waited for her to hang up first.
She was very confused, but she had no idea that he was just ten feet behind her right now.
Chance and Martin, who had been standing on the second floor of the western restaurant opposite the
Sky café, had watched the scene.
“How wonderful! Well, Chance, I never knew you could be so smart. You really arranged a good show!”
Looking through the window at Allen and Joey downstairs, Yolanda laughed and clapped her hands.
However, Chance looked at Yolanda very impatiently and said coldly, “Don’t be so sarcastic. You made
the whole plan, and I just called Allen to lure him to come here. I bet you’re way better than me when it
comes to make intricate plans.”
“Really?” Yolanda smiled disapprovingly and said, “Is that a compliment? All right, thanks, partner.”
Chance said, “I believe you have more than one partner. Ben Hawk should be here any minute. I’m
going downstairs to meet up with Allen. I asked him to come here to see me after all. I have to give him
an explanation, or he’ll certainly suspect something.”
Yolanda nodded, “Don’t forget our plan tonight. It’s the most important part of the whole picture and
everything depends on it. He will be mine if it works out. Otherwise we’ll fail miserably.”
“Don’t worry. We will win, because I know him and her very well.”
Chance adjusted his glasses and his eyes looked wicked and dangerous.
Chance had hardly reached the stairs when he bumped into Ben Hawk who was climbing the stairs
difficultly with a stick and his right leg in a thick cast.
Chance and Ben Hawk had met each other on several occasions before, and they were definitely not
strangers. Ben Hawk had gone to visit Joey’s father at Chance’s clinic twice as her former fiancé after
Mrs. Linderman had accidentally pushed her husband down the stairs. Ben Hawk had never liked
Chance, because Chance was Allen’s friend.
Now with one of them going downstairs while the other one going upstairs, they finally looked at each
other face to face. Chance undoubtedly won the silent battle.
They brushed against each other without saying anything. But the very eye contact declared both the
beginning and end of an intense war. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Yolanda immediately stood up at the sight of Ben Hawk. She took the special pen from his hand and
pressed an almost invisible button at the tip of the pen. Suddenly the conservation between Ben Hawk
and Joey was played very clearly.
Yolanda smiled excitedly after she listened to the recording. She looked up at Ben Hawk, “Well done.
It’s…perfect.”
Ben Hawk frowned. He was confused, “There was nothing special about the conversation I just had
with her. And the sentence you told me to add to the conversation sounded irrelevant. I don’t see why
you’re asking me do this.”
Yolanda smiled and gave him a sidelong glance. She was apparently contemptuous of him, “Of course
you don’t know why. How could people of humble origins like you and her understand our special
means in the upper class? Well, your job is done. You’ll see her in agony very soon. This is the end of
our cooperation!”
She put the pen away, stood up elegantly and left in high heels.
Ben Hawk ground his teeth angrily, but he could do nothing but repress his anger, because he knew
that a girl as rich and powerful as Yolanda was someone he couldn’t afford to offend right now.
