Rosie looked up at the bright moon and said, “Mr. Q is a good person. After I stole the treasure from the Carmine
Pawnshop, not only did he spare my life, he even helped me quit my addiction. After that, he hired me as his
assistant with a generous salary. I paid off my debt and sent my son back to kindergarten. Our future became
bright again, like the moon.”
“You’re Mr. Q’s assistant?”
Renee’s eyes lit up. As if she had caught onto a life-saving straw, she grabbed Rosie’s hand and asked, “Do you
know where he is? Can you tell me? I have something very important to ask him!”
“Mr. Q has always kept his whereabouts a secret. Although I’m his assistant, I have no right to know where he goes.
But…”
Rosie was about to say something when Chase walked over and interrupted her words coldly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Rosie, Mr. Q already told you that starting from this week, you’re no longer his assistant. You’ve been dismissed.
What are you doing here?”
Chase’s eyes were cold and his voice was threatening, “Do I have to ask security to chase you away?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Chase.”
Rosie’s eyes immediately became teary. She said pitifully, “I just came to say goodbye to Mr. Q. I…”
“That won’t be necessary.”
Chase said impatiently, “The Carmine Pawnshop is not a charity organization. It doesn’t matter if you came to thank
Mr. Q or to say goodbye to him, you’ll only disturb him. Stop disturbing him. That’s the best thing you can do for
him.”
Renee stared at Chase sharply and said, “So you do know where he is. He might even be watching us right now,
asking you to convey his message in real time.”
“Chase, tell me where he is and what secret he’s hiding. Why did he leave without saying goodbye? Has he ever
considered that his actions might make me suffer for a lifetime and doubt myself for a lifetime?”
Chase’s face remained cold and expressionless. “Miss Everheart, I’ve already told you, Mr. Q has disappeared. We
can’t reach him. Maybe someone hurt him. Maybe he wants to retire to the mountains and forests. Maybe he
approached you with ulterior motives, and now that he’s achieved his goal, his role is no longer needed, so he
disappeared…”
The many assumptions he stated made Renee feel even more disheartened.
Because no matter which one it was, she could not accept it!
She did not want Mr. Q to get killed because of her. She also hoped he had not been lying to her all along.
“Miss Everheart, instead of making a big fuss here, why don’t you interrogate the person involved? No one knows
the truth better than him, but it might be a truth that you’re not willing to accept.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChase’s meaning was obvious.
He did not know the truth, Rosie did not know the truth, and no one in the entire Carmine Pawnshop knew the truth.
The only one who did was the winner of the whole affair, Stefan Hunt!
Chase left after he said that.
Renee gradually calmed down, but the sadness seemed to have frozen on her face. It would not fade even after a
long time.
Rosie looked at her with sympathy and said softly, “Miss Everheart, I don’t know what happened between you and
Mr. Q, but I can tell you one thing with certainty: Mr. Q is a good person and he won’t hurt you on purpose.
Whatever he did, he must have done it so that you could be happy.”
“Is that so?”
Renee raised her head. Her eyes were wet. She smiled bitterly, “I think he’s a good person too. That’s why I want
an answer even more.”
“Are you free now? Let’s go have a drink. I can give you a better idea of what kind of person Mr. Q is.”
