The Tycoon's Deepest Repentance (Sophia and Ryan)

Chapter 105: Craving Max's Fate

"Speak," Charlotte bluntly uttered this word.

Arnold pretended to be mysterious and said, ["Max goes to a certain place every year, whether for vacation or to visit old friends, I'm not sure. You, the big shot, should have heard of this place..."] "Are you fond of keeping things suspenseful today?" Charlotte's voice was cold and commanding. "You always like to leave things halfway, so just stop talking."

["Wait, please don't hang up, big shot,"] Arnold's tone became urgent. ["I'll tell you. Max goes to Skyview Mountain every year."]

yview Mountain...

Charlotte's eyes paused.

Indeed, she had heard of this place.

Skyview Mountain wasn't far from Navidalae Village, but it wasn't exactly close either.

And the Holy Ranch Resort was situated on Skyview Mountain.

When she was seven years old, Charlotte had walked to the Holy Ranch Resort on Skyview Mountain, selling flowers once, and had an encounter with someone unforgettable enough to last a lifetime... How could she not know Skyview Mountain...

["Boss?"] Arnold, hearing no sound over her end, cautiously spoke up.

Charlotte finally snapped back to reality.

She asked, "Where does he usually go?"

["I can't find that out,"] Arnold replied softly, ["and Skyview Mountain is so vast, who knows where he's headed? But I guess it's probably for sightseeing and vacation. Many elite and noble people from the capital like to visit Skyview Mountain, so it's not surprising Max would go there."]

Charlotte found Arnold's words reasonable.

Indeed, Skyview Mountain was highly favored by the upper-class nobility.

Did Max really like that place too?

["Oh, by the way, boss," Arnold's voice continued to come through the phone, his tone suddenly turning serious, ["next, I need to talk to you about something important."]

["Somebody placed an order in the Dark Night to buy Max's life, specifically requesting Killer Zero to do it."]

As the words fell, Charlotte's eyes shook fiercely.

Zero was the top-ranked assassin on the current assassin leaderboard, affiliated with the Dark Night Syndicate.

But no one knew that Killer Zero was actually the leader of the Dark Night Syndicate, who was none other than Charlotte herself. In other words, someone was hiring Charlotte to take Max's life. It was unbelievably absurd that such a thing could happen in this world... ["Boss, the offer from the other party is very high, you could say it's a sky-high price,"] Arnold added,

1"Do you think I should take it?"] Charlotte held the phone tightly, her fingers tense.

["I don't know..."] Arnold couldn't fathom Charlotte's thoughts. In the past, she might have accepted, but now...

The boss's attitude towards Max was very peculiar.

Charlotte lowered her eyes, her expression shifting in the depths of her eyes. "Who is it that wants Max's life?" 15:28

["I don't know,"] Arnold replied with a rare of unconfidence.

"You didn't investigate the origin of the requester?" Charlotte's eyes turned cold, a chill in her voice.

"It's not that I didn't investigate; it's just that I couldn't find anything at all,"] Arnold quickly responded. ["The requester probably has significant backing and has taken extreme measures to ensure secrecy. There's no trace of anything to be found."] Charlotte pressed her lips tightly, falling into silence.

Of course, she wouldn't go after Max's life. Max was the person she had resolved to love and protect in this lifetime. She couldn't possibly harm him.

However, the problem lay in the fact that even if she, as Killer Zero, refused to take Max's life, the person wanting him dead would likely approach other assassins. If they went to other assassins, it would be beyond Charlotte's control. Who had he angered to this extent?

Charlotte's lips moved slightly, finally breaking the silence. "Don't reject immediately. Tell them I'm considering it. Also, keep an eye on his movements. If he contacts other assassins, report it to me immediately."

Upon hearing this, Arnold immediately understood. The boss not only couldn't bear to harm Max but also intended to protect him!

Indeed, their love ran deep.

He responded in a deep voice, ["Alright, I got it."]

After hanging up the phone, Charlotte freshened up, changed her clothes, and then stepped out of the bedroom.

In the living room, the butler was pushing Max towards the door for a walk around the estate.

Charlotte quickly caught up and smiled at the butler, "Let me handle this."

The butler nodded respectfully and stepped back

Max naturally heard Charlotte's words from behind, but he didn't turn around. His face remained calm.

However, his slender fingers hanging by his side instinctively tightened slightly.

"Bro," Charlotte's hands rested on the wheelchair as she pushed Max forward. "Let me accompany you for a stroll."

"Mm," the man responded lightly.

In the estate, there was an array of colorful flowers. The bright and warm sunlight poured down, casting a golden glow on every aspect of the estate.

"Bro," as they reached the central area of the estate, where there was no one around, Charlotte finally spoke, "In this recent time-"

"You need to take care of yourself."

Each word Charlotte uttered was sincere and heartfelt.

She genuinely hoped that Max would stay safe. The man naturally sensed the concern and sincerity in her words.

He thought Charlotte was expressing concern because of yesterday's kidnapping incident.

She was caring for him.

"I know," Max nodded, but a fleeting hint of delight crossed his eyes.

However, Charlotte sighed inwardly.

You really don't know anything at all.

If someone is willing to pay an exorbitant amount of money to hire the world's most skilled assassin to kill someone, it means they genuinely want that person dead. The Tycoon's Deepest Repentance

Chapter 105: Craving Max's Fate

Brother someone hates you a lot and really wants you gone. Do you know?

Charlotte looked at Max's figure, her eyes reflecting a complex mix of emotions.

"Brother," she suddenly spoke in an incredibly gentle tone, like the murmur of a dream, but Max still heard, "You have to live well. I hope to see you stand up healthy." Max's eyes paused.

The plainness of his expression was finally broken, revealing a hint of emotion.

He had never heard words like these before.

He had always been pitied, mocked, sympathized with, disliked...

But this was the first time someone told him to live well and stand up.

Charlotte...

Max instinctively turned back to look at the young girl behind him.

Charlotte, however, spoke first, "Brother, let's go back. I have to go to school later."

Max couldn't help but express concern, "You weren't feeling well yesterday. You can take a day off today and rest at home."

A faint smile tugged at the corner of Charlotte's lips, and there was a glint of joy in her eyes as she replied, "No need. I'm fine, no rest required. I'm fully revived now."

For Charlotte, the events of yesterday weren't a major catastrophe. She had faced even tougher challenges.

She escorted Max back to the living room and let the butler take charge once again. After having a bit of bread to fill her stomach, she grabbed her backpack and headed out.

When Charlotte arrived at her classroom, Hans approached her, grinning. "Charlotte, the school festival starts today. The karate tournament you signed up for will be in a tournament format. The groups have been posted. Let me show you."
