Chapter 502 I Want Him Dead
Roderick arched his thick brow and stopped trying to rip Nicole's dress apart. He was surprised she would play along
with him.
It was as though Nicole could sense his confusion, she wrapped her long legs around Roderick's thighs which were
clad in camouflage pants.
Tamping down her disgust, she said coyly, “Roddie, I've missed you. It has been ages since we last met, right?
Where have you been? Why didn't you visit me?”
As she spoke, her hands slipped beneath his shirt.
A lecherous grin flitted across Roderick's lips. He replied, “Why? Are you horny just after a few days? I knew those
who had slept with me would miss me!”
“Hey, how could you say that? It was all your fault!” Nicole rested her cheek against Roderick's muscular chest. A
wide smile played on her lips as she advanced without hesitation.
Although Nicole lacked sexual experience, she had witnessed similar incidents in the entertainment industry. It was
common for female celebrities to use sex as a means to advance their careers. Additionally, her close friend
Bonnie dated many men and taught her various techniques to seduce them.
Indeed, under her seductive skills, Roderick's desire heightened, and he couldn't wait to ravage her right there and
then.
Hastily, he lifted her skirt to pull off the last obstacle. He was about to penetrate her when pitiful whimpers pierced
the air.
Roderick looked down to see Nicole weeping sadly, tears running down her cheeks.
She gazed up at him, tears shimmering in her eyes. Though her lips parted, she seemed hesitant to speak and

Roderick thought she acted this way as she was disgusted at his touch. At once, his desire faded a little.
He reached out to grip her chin, the force nearly crushing her bone. “Why? You were seducing me just a while ago.
Why are you acting like a chaste woman now? Who are you putting up an act for?”
Tears rolled down Nicole's cheeks and fell onto the back of Roderick's hand.
Shaking her head, she wept softly and said, “I'm not against the idea of having sex with you, but I can't do it now. I-
I'm being threatened by someone...”
“Who would have the guts to threaten you?” Roderick frowned doubtfully.
Even though Nicole was adopted by William, the Lamberts considered her as their own daughter, showering her
with love and affection. Roderick was aware of that, so he couldn't figure out who had the guts to threaten her.
Tears pooled in Nicole's eyes. She kept shaking her head but said nothing.
Nicole was aware that behaving in a vulnerable manner might elicit Roderick's sympathy toward her.
Indeed, Roderick's voice turned vicious when he saw her tear-stained face. “What exactly happened? Who has the
guts to bully my woman? Be honest with me.”
“Roddie, you're the best!”
Nicole suppressed a shudder of disgust as she tried her best to act coquettish towards Roderick. Her voice choked
as she revealed, “You know that I'm William's adopted daughter. Before he adopted me, I had a terrible few years
in the orphanage. A man who used to work there has some dirt on me from my time there. He's been threatening
me with it, asking for money in exchange for his silence or he would reveal the dirt to the media. I'm terrified. If the
media exposes everything, my acting career will be ruined, and my adoptive parents will be ashamed of me. I've
already paid him twice, but that wasn't enough as he's extorting money from me for the third time. He wants me to
transfer money to him within two hours, or he'll reveal everything to the media. I'm scared and don't know what to
do...”
She curled into a ball and buried her face into his burly chest, wailing hard like a baby.
Hearing that, Roderick burst into raucous laughter. He lifted her chin and gave her lips a forceful bite. “I thought it
was something serious. Don't worry, for I'll solve your dilemma. Tell me. How do you want me to solve it?”
“I want him dead!” Nicole's face contorted as a vicious glint flashed across her eyes.
It disappeared in a split moment, but Roderick caught it nonetheless.
His grin grew increasingly wicked.
She's indeed a malicious beauty to want someone dead just because he extorted money from her. However, I
adore vicious and hot women like her.
“If I get rid of him for you, how will you thank me, then?” Roderick narrowed his gaze.
“If you are able to help me, I'll do anything you want,” Nicole said shyly in his embrace.
“Deal.” Roderick's hands roamed all over Nicole's body for some time before he came to a stop. “Two hours later,
I'll see you at Room 6666, Xerand Hotel. I want to see you naked in bed.”
“Mm,” came Nicole's shy answer as a strange expression crossed her face.
After Roderick left, Nicole's face immediately twisted in repugnance.
She diligently washed the parts of her body where Roderick touched and cursed him rudely.
After that, she straightened her outfit and her messy hair, returning to her usual classy self. With a charming smile,
she made her way back to the event hall.
...
A man in his mid-thirties, standing around one hundred and seventy-five centimeters tall, was concealed in a thick
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmjungle on the mountainside. His jaw was unshaven, and he appeared exhausted and disheveled.
Charles Horsel was currently cowering in a run-down hut. Every gust of wind sent shivers of fear down his spine.
He had nowhere to escape.
Charles had no idea about the identity of the woman he hit. After hitting her, he got himself into trouble.
The police, private investigators, private security companies, and the like were all after him. He was now a wanted
criminal.
Even his bank account was frozen, and he couldn't withdraw any money. He didn't have any cash with him and was
in a miserable state.
Had Charles not been involved with gangsters and had the ability to evade surveillance, he would have been caught
by now.
He couldn't help but regret hitting Avery. If he knew hitting her would cause this much trouble, he would rather not
accept the reward.
Alas, he had no choice but to hope that Nicole would quickly deliver the cash to him as promised.
Otherwise, he wouldn't mind dragging her down with him.
Charles was on his guard when a hoarse voice rang out, “Is that you, Charles Horsel?”
Shocked, Charles bobbed his head.
He was about to turn to find out who it was when he caught sight of a camouflage uniform. Before he got the
chance to see the unexpected visitor, a machete appeared in his sight and sliced across his throat, ending his life
effectively.
Blood gushed out of his neck and sprayed all over the area.
Charles didn't even have the chance to scream for help as he died instantly with his eyes opened wide.
The man in the camouflage uniform flashed a malicious smile as he dug out Charles' eyeballs with his machete.
Xavier and Jake rushed there as quickly as they could, but when they arrived, they only caught a glimpse of a tall
and agile figure disappearing into the dense forest.
D*mn it. We are too late!
