Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Both Returning Victorious, Feeling Exhilarated and Refreshed

Delphine was sweating on Leah’s behalf, noticing Stone Leclair’s apprehension. She quickly grabbed Leah and headed outside.

"Oh, slow down, I’m wearing high heels," Leah whined coquettishly, instructing her men, "Leopard, you go and move the missile away, lest we scare these fragile young gentlemen and ladies."

Delphine pulled her straight out of the Leclair mansion, still shaken, she said, "You, you, you almost scared me to death."

Leah chuckled, her delicate and charming face showing a casual smile: "What’s there to fear? If I didn’t come to threaten and intimidate a bit, who knows what you’d encounter in this cesspool going forward."

"Leah, the Leclair Family isn’t as simple as you think," Delphine tightly held her hand, lowering her voice as she said, "It’s not just a few people missing in the South Seas. Even if all of you disappeared there, do you really think anyone would investigate? Not to mention there’s a secret military training base nearby, there are also stationed troops along the coastline. In the future, you can’t just act recklessly."

No one understood this place’s terrors better than she did.

"Stone Leclair has had a recent career promotion, which is why he tolerated not arguing with you."

Leah’s smile faded slightly, and she let out a cold snort: "Others may fear him, but I don’t. Randomly checking on the street, the reward for me and my brother from the Squire Family is enough to buy an Arabian country. I just can’t stand these so-called aristocratic families, those hypocritically pompous people in the circles of fame and fortune, engaging in filthy deeds."

"Why did you come to the Leclair Family?" Delphine asked in surprise.

"We also have sources in the South Seas. My brother told me to make a fuss today, partly to support you, to prevent you from being bullied, and partly to test Stone Leclair’s limits," Leah lowered her voice, saying, "My brother was previously tricked by Stone Leclair and he’s still upset about it."

Delphine was somewhat grateful, holding Leah’s hand, she hoarsely said, "Your old ailment isn’t cured yet, you still need the final treatment. How could Griffith Squire send you? You shouldn’t be doing such things, a dainty girl like you. What if Stone Leclair retaliates against you?"

Leah saw her eyes reddened, looking as pitiful as a little Bambi, she was still holding back, her lips curled into a slightly cold smile, and she playfully scolded, "Silly girl."

She had lost her memory, her old ailment often left her in unbearable pain, and Griffith Squire never spoke of her past, but she wasn’t fooled. Her past life was certainly miserable beyond words. When she met the barely breathing yet desperately struggling Delphine back then, she gained a glimpse of hope to live on.

Since she lived, she naturally wanted to live flamboyantly.

"Call Griffith Squire to pick you up, I’m worried," Delphine was still somewhat anxious. Seeing she only had about seven or eight people with her, she asked, "You didn’t really bring a missile, did you?"

Leah noticed her face turned a bit pale. In a low voice, she proudly said, "It’s a replica, specifically used to scare people. I wouldn’t dare touch the real deal; that thing is a life-saver for Griffith Squire and me. There’s only one, and because of it, we almost lost our lives in Russia."

Leah recalled how the crowd from the Leclair Family turned pale with fright earlier, and she felt a sense of satisfaction.

Delphine also curled her lips in a smile, standing before the Leclair mansion’s gate. She exchanged a smile with Leah, their smiles illuminating the dense night.
