Don't Fall For Me, CEO
Chapter 822: Sober in the Mortal World
CHAPTER 822: CHAPTER 822: SOBER IN THE MORTAL WORLD
"I’m scared, but you saved me!"
Mrs. Vance’s slightly reddened eyes showed sincerity and determination.
"Although Rhonda’s death wasn’t directly by my hands, I’m still an indirect executioner. With someone like me, are you sure you dare to follow?"
July Quinn squinted her beautiful eyes slightly, with a hint of playfulness.
"But Rhonda wasn’t innocent. She was extremely jealous and ruthless. I’ve known her for many years; she couldn’t stand anyone who was prettier and more popular than her. So if you don’t deal with her now, she definitely won’t let you go."
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll deceive you?"
Though July Quinn didn’t clearly inform Mrs. Vance about her entanglements with The Hale Family, she spoke plainly about Rhonda and Simon’s motives for kidnapping Mrs. Vance and their objectives.
If she wanted to deceive Mrs. Vance, she could indeed make a fuss about it.
"I currently have no family or friends, and no source of income. What could you gain from deceiving me?"
July Quinn: "..."
This person is really clear-headed.
"So what skills do you have?"
July Quinn’s question made Mrs. Vance slightly embarrassed.
"When I was very young, Rhonda ruined my chances, and I was expelled from school. Later, my family sent me to work at an electronics factory, and then I got married..."
You could say, besides fighting well in prison and gaining a certain status, she had no other noteworthy skills.
Fearing that July Quinn would disdain her, she hurriedly added, "But no matter how dirty or tiring the work is, I can do it. If I don’t know how, I can learn."
"In that case, you can stay at the hotel and help out. I have some matters to attend to; I’ll come by to see you another day."
With these words, July Quinn left this time without looking back.
"Thank you! Thank you..."
With gratitude in her heart, Mrs. Vance watched July Quinn’s figure fade into the distance.

Simon Hale had a nightmare and awoke drenched in sweat.
He looked around and found himself still in the same cell, and let out a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, it was just a dream!"
In the dream just now, July Quinn switched Mrs. Vance and Rhonda, causing him to mistakenly kill Rhonda.
But luckily, it was just a dream.
If not, he wouldn’t know how to go on after killing his beloved daughter with his own hands.
But just then, Simon Hale noticed a set of silver needles beside his hand.
"What’s going on? I remember I had already put these things away."
In prison, carrying metal objects was not allowed.
So when Simon Hale had someone bring in these silver needles, he had them hidden in a very secret spot.
How did this set of silver needles suddenly reappear beside him?
Could it be that it wasn’t a dream?
This thought made Simon Hale’s hands tremble slightly.
"No, that’s impossible!"
If it were true, then how did he return to his cell so quietly?
It must be that he’d spent too long in the cell, having too many nightmares, and couldn’t distinguish reality from dreams.
"Number 9822, Simon Hale! Someone’s here to visit!"
At this moment, the guard’s voice came.
Simon Hale thought it was his lawyer, so he hurried to the visitation room without delay.
Only to find July Quinn dressed dazzlingly, looking like a stunning seductress sitting in the visitation room.
Beside her was a young man with a purple earring.
"July Quinn? What are you doing here?"
Every time he saw July Quinn, nothing good happened.
So much so that Simon Hale now deeply believed that July Quinn was a harbinger of doom and strongly resisted seeing her.
"I don’t want to see you. Get out!"
But just as he said this, July Quinn, with a look of disdain, said:
"Amateur, actually I don’t want to see you either. But there’s news that I must tell you in person..."
