“Bang!”
Zill raised his machete and slashed at Mandy.
“All!”
When Mandy saw that Zill really made a move, she instinctively screamed. Perhaps it was because of fear, but before the machete could land on her arm, Mandy had already fainted.
Lily, who was standing not far away, did not dare to look at this scene. She covered her eyes tightly.
When she heard the loud bang, her entire body trembled and she sat on the ground in shock.
When Lily opened her eyes again, she was dumbfounded.
She was surprised to find that Zill’s machete did not land on Mandy’s hand, but instead landed on the floor, leaving a deep knife mark on the floor.
“This… What’s going on?”
Lily looked up at Zill and asked in disbelief.
The knife mark on the floor was still a long way from Mandy’s arm.
Even if Zill had missed, there was no way he’d miss by so much!
Zill ignored Lily and turned to Luke with a smile, “Mr. Phillips, I acted well just now, right?”
“It’s alright…” Luke nodded slightly.
Zill also showed a puzzled expression and whispered to Luke, “But Boss, I don’t understand why Mr. McDonald wants us to put on such a show. If he wanted to deal with this woman, he could have let us do it directly. Why did Mr. McDonald want us to scare her?”
“You have never experienced the fear of death, so you don’t know how terrifying this feeling is. I think Mr. McDonald asked us to do this because he wants this girl to remember how terrifying that feeling was!”
Luke explained with his eyes narrowed.
Although there were many rumors about Connor outside, saying that Connor did not have any talent at all and was just lucky enough to inherit Steven Lee’s property!
However, Luke felt that the rumors outside were not true. At the very least, he felt that Connor was very smart.
The fact that Connor could think of such a way to deal with Mandy proved that he was much smarter than the average person.
Connor didn’t want anyone to kill Mandy, nor did he want to hurt her, because no matter what, Mandy had been with Connor before.
But under such circumstances, Connor was worried that Mandy would keep using their relationship to threaten him. In this case, she might become a problem that Connor could not solve!
Therefore, Connor felt that the only way to solve this was by making Mandy really afraid of him, so much so that every time she saw him, she would think of the terrifying fear just now. Otherwise, Mandy would definitely keep asking for money from him.
After Connor gave Mandy 10 million dollars, he went straight to Lily and asked her to bring Mandy to Harlem’s Gold.
Connor had something on Lily, so she naturally did not dare to reject his request. She brought Mandy to Harlem’s Gold according to his instructions.
Then, Connor asked Kyle Hayes to negotiate with the people of Harlem’s Gold. His plan was very simple, and that was to let Mandy fall to this point step by step.
Although Luke Phillips was not Connor’s employee, he had heard about Connor. In addition, Kyle Hayes had a good relationship with Connor, so Luke needed to give Connor some leeway.
Therefore, from the moment Mandy stepped into the casino, she was under surveillance.
Not only that, but the people from Harlem’s Gold had also cheated on purpose. They let her win a few rounds, then baited her into losing.
Mandy, of course, couldn’t accept such ups and downs. After losing money, she naturally wanted to win it back. However, winning money required capital, so she could only borrow money from Harlem’s Gold!
In less than two months, Mandy had experienced the ups and downs that she had never experienced before. First, she went from an ordinary university student to a multimillionaire, and then from a multimillionaire to a gambler with a debt of 20 million dollars.
In order to avoid the people in the casino, Mandy had no choice but to hide and live a life worse than death every day.
In the end, Connor began to pull in the net, deliberately letting Luke and Zill put on a show.
In this way, Mandy would understand what true fear was!
Luke felt that Connor being able to set up such a big trap over a long period of time was definitely not something that ordinary people could do.
Most importantly, Connor had never appeared in this plan. This was also his most powerful aspect.
That was why Luke felt that Connor was not useless. He was much more powerful than the outside world thought.
“Creak!”
At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Connor walked into the office!
“Mr. McDonald!”
“Mr. McDonald!”
Zill and Luke hurriedly stood up and greeted Connor.
Lily looked at Connor who walked into the office in a daze. Now she finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that she was just a chess piece in Connor’s plan!
“How is Mandy?”
Connor asked expressionlessly.
“Mr. McDonald, Mandy Hines just fainted. She must have been too frightened!” Luke replied.
“Wake her up. I have something to say to her…”
Connor replied lightly and then sat on the chair that Luke had sat on before.
Zill and the rest did not dare to be negligent. They hurriedly ran to the bathroom to get a large basin of cold water and splashed it directly on Mandy’s face!
“All!”
Mandy screamed and instantly woke up.
“My hand…”
Mandy thought that her hands had been chopped off by Zill, so the first thing she did after waking up was to check her body.
But what Mandy did not expect was that her body was actually unharmed, and both her hands were still intact.
“This… What’s going on?”
Mandy muttered in disbelief. Then, she suddenly looked up and found an extremely familiar face.
At this moment, Connor was squinting at Mandy.
“Connor, you…Why are you here?”
Mandy stuttered as she asked Connor. The expression on her face was very shocked!
“Why do you think I’m here?” Connor smiled faintly.
“You’re here to save me, right?”
Mandy shouted excitedly.
“Save you?”
Connor sneered, then shook his head and said, “Mandy, you’re really naive!”
“Mandy, Connor is in cahoots with these people…”
Lily could not help but remind Mandy softly.
“Together?”
Mandy felt that her brain was not enough.
She sat on the ground and hesitated for two seconds.. Then, she shouted excitedly, “Connor, you colluded with these people to harm me, right?”
