The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee

She anxiously stared at Sean without blinking her eyes.

After listening, Sean furrowed his brow and said, “Why are you panicking? Would I really not give it to you? As long as things work out, what I promised will be given to you.”

“Isn’t it already worked out?” Vivi pursed her lips. “Boris is on the verge of death. While he’s unconscious these days, you can definitely take down the Lewis family. I’ve already helped you achieve your goal. You better give me the money quickly.”

In fact, she was ready to leave.

Even if Boris didn’t die, he would still end up in prison. The charges of running a casino and kidnapping combined would result in a minimum of ten years.

With Sean around, she couldn’t possibly benefit from the Lewis family anymore.

Instead of staying here, she wanted to make some money and run away.

If she waited any longer, she feared something unexpected might happen.

After all, the opponent was Boris. In case he turned the tables, he would definitely show no mercy.

She was better run away quickly.

She wanted to run to a foreign country, away from all this chaos. Survival was paramount!

With these thoughts in mind, Vivi saw that Sean didn’t respond and continued. “You’re not planning to back out on your word, are you?”

Sean chuckled and replied, “No.”

“Then give me the money.”

“When the job is done.” He repeated.

Vivi felt uncertain and changed her mind when she faced those gloomy eyes. “Give me half of it first, then I’ll trust you.”

“Fine.” Sean transferred half of the money to her, and a smile finally appeared on Vivi’s face. “When will you take action against the Lewis family?”

“When the police have the results.”
