Never Too Far Novel

After sending the text, the girl put down her phone. Although she looked young, the determination in her eyes showed that she was not weak.

In the airport, the gang of people scattered around while looking for the girl. Meanwhile, the lady from earlier went to the security office immediately to register her missing item. Soon, the security let her enter the surveillance room and found the scene where the other girl had knocked her down. Through the footage, they could see that the girl had picked up the lipstick.

The lady in front of the monitor was so angry as though fire was going to blast out of her eyes. Her lipstick had been switched just like that.

“Yes, it’s this girl. What she took was important to me. I want to get her contact information.”

“You’ll need to report to the police, Miss,” the security answered.

“The proof is right here. She took my key. Do you know that’s the key to my safety vault? I just need the girl’s information, and I’ll get it back from her myself. There’s no need to trouble the police,” she said anxiously. Her anxious expression wasn’t fake since she was on the verge of breaking down.

The manager on the side was feeling troubled too. After all, disclosing a customer’s information was prohibited.

“It’s obvious that she knocked me on purpose. Can’t you see it? Just give me her information. I’m not a bad guy either. I just want my key back from her,” she said in distress. “I have an important document inside my vault that my client needs to sign tonight. Do you know how much money I’ll lose if this doesn’t go through?”

In the end, the manager decided to give her the girl’s information since it was just a misunderstanding and not some hazardous incident. However, they didn’t know that the lady standing in front of them was one of the top international criminals.

She took the document from the manager with the girl’s phone number and name inside it.

“This is all we can do for you, Miss. We can’t tell you anything more than this.”

“It’s enough.” She turned and left immediately.

In the black SUV, a man was looking through the information quickly. This group of people were not ordinary people, for they had masterminds and extraordinary methods to carry things out.

Soon, detailed information appeared on the computer.

The man gritted his teeth and said, “I found her.”

At this moment, the girl in the photo with an innocent face had become their main hunting target.

“Wow! She has a strong background. Her mother is the CEO of a company worth eighty million, and her father is the second most powerful in this city. Interesting.”

“If I can’t get the lipstick back, I’ll ask her whole family to die with her,” the lead guy said ruthlessly.

“We’ll definitely get it back.”

“However, we can’t snatch it from her forcefully since I don’t want to stir up any problems here. We’re on people’s radar now. We’ll change the date of the deal to one week later so that we’ll have a week to work on this operation.”

“Yes, boss. I’ll get the thing back for you even if I have to bet my life on it,” said the lady while grinding her teeth.

They had twelve members in their gang, and they all lived by stealing. However, they weren’t any ordinary thieves. They had the best stealing techniques, and whatever they had their eyes on were definitely rare items in the world.

What they were stealing this time was a military gain which had just been developed successfully. It was the original blueprint of a weapon. They knew very well which organization they had messed with, so they needed to be careful with every step they took. Simply put, failure was not allowed.

“Remember, we can’t be noticed by anyone. If they know we’re here, it’ll be impossible for us to leave this country.” Although the lead guy had an exotic look, his face made him look ruthless and cold. He was just like a wolf in the wild, not to be fondled with.

At this moment, the people he mentioned made everyone in the car nervous. They were not just ordinary interpol; what they had stolen this time belonged to that organization.

That was a mysterious military organization. In fact, they were so mysterious that no one knew who they worked for, but they were not people to be underestimated.

Just as they were being afraid of that organization, the head of that organization was looking at the picture retrieved from the airport in front of a giant monitor. They were also looking at the surveillance footage of that lady looking for her missing lipstick in the security office.

At the back of Richard were six men in camouflage uniforms sitting behind him. Some of them were young, whereas some were middle-aged men. There were even two foreigners. All of them listened to the orders of this young man in front of them.

“Show me the information about this girl.” He pointed at the girl wearing the cap in the surveillance video.

His subordinate beside him tapped a few times on the keyboard instantly to retrieve a detailed information, and the girl’s face was enlarged.

At this moment, all the men there were stunned for a few seconds. It was the first time they saw such a beautiful face in an ID photo. The perfectly proportioned face of the girl with long hair moved everyone’s heart.

Richard looked at her face and squinted his eyes. “Angela Meyers, twenty-five. Her mother is running a real estate company as the CEO and her father…” As he read until here, he was stunned for a few seconds. Nonetheless, he still read the name out in a stern tone. “Gilbert Meyers, a councilor.”

“Do you know Mr. Meyers, Richard?” A sharp subordinate of his noticed his pause earlier.

“He used to work for my grandfather. I’ve seen him before, but we’re not close,” Richard answered.

“Now that the lipstick is in Miss Meyers’ hand, this group of people will surely see her as their main target. Her life will be in danger every second from now on since they always do things ruthlessly.”

“I think they won’t kill her before they find the USB disguised as a lipstick. However, they’ll surely kidnap and force her to tell them the location of the lipstick,” another subordinate said.

“We need to protect this Miss Meyers, Richard.”

“Both the people and the lipstick are our subjects of protection,” Richard said sternly. “We need to find that lipstick before them.”

“How do we approach Miss Meyers, though?”

After some thought, Richard said, “I can ask my grandfather for help. I’ll be in charge of approaching her. You guys just stay still and keep your eyes on this group of people’s whereabouts.”

“You should hand me the mission of dealing with the girl. I’m better at it than you, Richard.” A subordinate raised his brows and gestured to himself as if telling Richard that he could do it.

Hearing that, Richard glanced at him. “This is a mission, not the time for you to hit on girls.”

“You can’t deny that Miss Meyers is really stunningly beautiful!”

Speechless, Richard glared at him. Although there were two of his guys who were glib, they were still his best men.

In the Meyers’ Residence, Angela was seated on the couch and looking at the beautiful woman opposite her. She lifted her head and said with determination, “Mom, I won’t break up with Dexter, and I won’t accept the engagement that you’ve arranged for me.”

“You have no choice. Dexter is marrying another girl. Are you trying to be his mistress?” Daphne Meyers looked at her daughter with anger in her eyes instead of compassion.

“Dexter and I love each other. He has done so much for me, and you can’t separate us so ruthlessly.” Angela’s eyes were filled with sadness and reluctance.

“Silly girl. When a man does everything for you, it doesn’t always mean that he loves you a lot. It might possibly be because he’s interested in our family’s money, and you’re just in the dark about that.”

“Dexter is not that kind of man.” Angela believed in her own choice of man.

Daphne secretly sighed to herself; she was the one who had arranged a woman for Dexter Kavinsky, giving him ten million to give up on her daughter. However, Angela was still being so stubborn. This really enraged her.

She shouldn’t have sent her daughter to study overseas in the first place and let this man with ulterior motives approach her and gain her affection, stealing her heart completely. Now, her daughter was deeply in love with him.

Daphne always thought that her daughter studied too much and had ruined her own brain. She could have chosen a better boyfriend for herself, but she ended up choosing a man with an ordinary background but extraordinary means.

If it were not because she was more cunning, the rest of her daughter’s life would have been ruined just like that.

Angela didn’t want to face her mother anymore. She stood up and walked in the direction of the stairs, wanting to go back to her room.

At this moment, Daphne received a call from her husband. “Hello?”

“How’s our daughter?”

“She still doesn’t want to break up with Dexter. Such a silly girl,” she said worriedly.

“I received news that someone might be having their eyes on us. Be careful, you two. Meanwhile, I’ve arranged a bodyguard to protect Angela for her own safety. He’ll be there tomorrow morning.”

Daphna wasn’t shocked to hear such a thing since she had been through a lot too. Now that her daughter was not listening to her, she needed to arrange a bodyguard for her. Otherwise, her daughter would be in danger if she left the house after throwing tantrums.

“Okay! Is the bodyguard reliable?”

“Very reliable. Mr. Lloyd introduced him to me.” When Daphne heard that, she felt relieved too. “Okay, you should take care of your own safety too. It’s really stormy these days.”

In the room on the third floor, Angela was standing in front of the window, looking at the lights far away. Her mind was filled with her lonely life when she was overseas during those days, and that was when Dexter came into her world. He had been by her side throughout her lonely days without her parents beside her, and it was a happy period in her life.

Since she was young, her mother had spent all her time in the office, and her father had spent all his time at work. Despite her wealth, she had poor mental and emotional health. Her parents thought that they had given her the best life when they had actually removed all the comfort for her.

However, three days ago, Dexter told her that he was going to be engaged and that he had fallen in love with another woman. She saw with her own eyes when he kneeled on one knee and proposed to that woman with a bouquet of flowers in his hands.

At this thought, Angela held back her tears and took her phone to look at the text. She continued to send him another message that read, ‘Dexter, I can give up on everything to be with you. Can you please come back to me?’

However, when she sent out the text, it was totally ignored; there was no reply at all.

Her phone then started ringing. She took up her phone and saw that it was her cousin.

“Hello, Ann.”

“I have some good news for you, Angela. I’m getting engaged.”

“What?” Angela said in shock. She’s getting engaged?
