I’m Someone Else

Chapter 207

Chloe, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the sound of fighting at the door. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and grumbled in dissatisfaction, “Why are the neighbors so uncivilized nowadays? It’s the middle of the night, and they’re disturbing other people’s rest when they can’t sleep themselves.”

She didn’t pay much attention to it and closed her eyes while trying to go back to sleep.

“Quick! We have to stop Simon’s bleeding!”

The four assassins got back into their car. One of them drove while the other two used the gauze prepared in the car to provide basic first aid to Simon.

Blech!

Simon spewed out a mouthful of blood, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.

As the other three assassins witnessed this scene, their expressions turned grave. They knew Simon had died.

The five individuals who had attacked them were merciless. They targeted the four assassins’ vital areas with every move. It was clear that they’d intended to keep the four of them here forever.

Didn’t they agree to come here just to assassinate a defenseless young girl? Who were these people that suddenly appeared? Their skills were so powerful! Moreover, the four of them hadn’t even clearly seen what the other side looked like, yet one of their comrades had died at the other party’s hands! And this was without the other party relentlessly pursuing them. If the other party intended to chase them, they wouldn’t stand a chance. The difference in strength was too great. They were simply not on the same level.

They didn’t dare to waste any time as they feared that the five figures would chase after them again. They stepped on the accelerator and headed toward the Yam Residence.

Little did they know that the five figures were actually sent by John and Samuel to protect Chloe. They were absolute core forces of the Morton Family and the Peralta Family, while the four of them were merely peripheral thugs of the Yam Family. The way they were being dealt with was akin to bullying children!

Quentin was still at home and waiting for good news. In his eyes, Chloe was destined not to live past tonight.

However, when he saw the three men returning, he was instantly stunned.

There were obvious bloodstains on their bodies, and their faces were filled with panic. His subconscious told him that things didn’t go as smoothly as he had imagined.

“You… Weren’t there four of you in total? Why are only three of you back?”

“Mr. Yam, we failed. Simon died.”

“What?! What the hell happened?!” Quentin’s mouth twitched with anger. Even though he had anticipated that things might not go smoothly, he was still infuriated after hearing it firsthand from his subordinate.

The plan had failed unexpectedly. Not only did they fail to kill a defenseless girl, but they also lost a life in vain.

His mood was already depressed, especially when he learned that the cause of the situation was his unruly grandson. Could it be that Thomas had discovered the four assassins he had sent out, which led to one of them being killed by Thomas?

The three men dared not even breathe loudly after seeing Quentin’s gloomy expression. They knew their master’s temper well. He was the kind of person who would take someone’s life at the slightest

provocation. If they hadn’t died at the hands of those five figures, they might just die at the hands of their master instead, which would be extremely frustrating.

The leader quickly recounted the sequence of events.

Quentin frowned deeply. “Who were the people who attacked you?”

“We don’t know… We didn’t even see what they looked like…”

“You useless bunch of…” Quentin’s nose was put out of joint. They were nothing but useless trash. Not only did they fail to kill someone, but they didn’t even get a clear look at the other party. What else could they be if not useless? It would be better to raise a dog than to keep them around! A dog could at least wag its tail and bring joy to him!

“Get lost!”

The three men were frightened as they almost collapsed to the ground after hearing Quentin’s thunderous roar. After a brief moment of confusion, they quickly supported each other and hurriedly left the villa.

They were fortunate that their master had shown mercy. He didn’t punish them for their failure.

“Who could it be?” Quentin sat on the couch while contemplating deeply. Judging from the appearance of the three men, they were obviously not lying. However, something didn’t add up. He had investigated Thomas and Chloe’s backgrounds himself. Thomas was an orphan with no parents, while Chloe was just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family. How could someone without any background have skilled individuals secretly protecting them? It didn’t make sense!

If Thomas knew about this, he would surely thank John, Samuel, and Quincy. All three forces had dispatched their core members to protect Chloe comprehensively. If it weren’t for their insightful

arrangement, Chloe would probably have been turned into a corpse by now.

The next morning, Thomas was enjoying the breakfast prepared by Olivia.

Olivia, on the other hand, occasionally glanced up at him while eating. The dinner event at Chloe’s house yesterday was still troubling her. Wasn’t Molly her secretary? Why did she show up at Chloe’s house? Furthermore, she even voluntarily served food to Thomas!

Upon thinking about these things, Olivia felt a sour feeling in her heart. It was an indescribable sensation. It seemed like this was what jealousy felt like.

“Thomas, did you invite Molly yesterday?” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

In the end, Olivia couldn’t help but ask.

Thomas shook his head and denied it. “I didn’t invite her. It was probably Chloe. They knew each other when they were both at Pearson Group. Maybe they’re good friends with each other.”

“Oh, I see!”

Olivia felt much better after hearing Thomas’ explanation. As long as it wasn’t him who invited Molly, it was fine.

It seemed that she had to act quickly. There were quite a few girls who had set their sights on him! She couldn’t let this golden egg of a man slip away.

Thomas glanced at Olivia, who was lowering her head and drinking porridge. He knew what Olivia was thinking, and he also wanted to be in a relationship. However, the current circumstances didn’t allow it. On one hand, he hadn’t completely recovered from the trauma inflicted by Felice. On the other hand,

he didn’t even know if he would survive until the end. It would be a disservice to the girls to enter into a relationship at this time. After all, the Six Greatest Families weren’t to be trifled with.

After breakfast, the two of them headed straight to Keyshire Property. Along the way, both of them were lost in their own thoughts, and neither of them spoke. The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

In the Pearson Residence, Declan sat alone on the couch while looking sorrowful and absent-minded. He had just returned from the crematorium, where he had cremated his father and brother. Adhering to the principle of low-key handling, he didn’t hold a memorial service. Quincy was the only one who came to pay his respects.

At that moment, there was an urgent knocking at the door which interrupted Declan’s sorrowful thoughts.

After he opened the door, he saw two men in suits standing outside.

“Excuse me, are you Mr. Declan Pearson?”
