Chapter 485: Chapter 485

Moreover, the badge isn’t real; it’s a replica that Josh Harris had someone make to look exactly the same. Grace Yowell had no intention of returning the real one to Mabel Quinn so easily. Josh’s words reminded her; he said that the badge seemed familiar, and perhaps the pattern on it held some significance. Was this really just a simple badge? Grace decided to study it further.

Of course, the top priority now was to get Mabel to take receipt of this badge.

At this moment, Grace was completely oblivious that she was merely a pawn in someone else’s game. Not far away, Josh Harris played with a remote control, displaying a playful smile. Grace had no idea that the box containing the badge she gave to Mabel was equipped with a special explosive. With a press of the switch, the explosion would be powerful enough to kill.

As for the police investigation afterward, they would only assume that Grace Yowell had planted the explosives, as — by that time, there would be no evidence to prove otherwise.

However, they were still missing one person, and they had to wait for another person to show up before he could press the button to detonate the bomb.

Josh Harris calculated in his mind exactly how much longer it would take for Daniel Harris to arrive here. He had specifically called Daniel earlier, saying he saw Grace meeting with Mabel and feared it might not go well for Mabel. He even sent photos to Daniel.

His true target was his brother, Daniel Harris. In the Harris Family, as long as Daniel was alive, he would never have his day in the sun. The father always cared only for the brother, while his own existence was merely a blemish in the father’s eyes.

Only with Daniel gone, would the Harris Family truly belong to him!

As for Grace Yowell, a woman like her was just for fun anyway. When the bomb went off, Mabel would be caught in it too, fulfilling Grace’s wish as well.

Josh Harris couldn’t wait to see Daniel arrive.

Finally, he saw Daniel’s car speeding over, and moments later, a figure rushed out from the car and headed quickly toward the café.

Mabel Quinn was lost in thought, gazing at the badge in her hand. Scenes from when she was with her father flashed repeatedly in her mind. Her father staring at the badge intently, solemnly handing it to her, and telling her to keep it safe for a lifetime. Her father said that one day, the badge might bring her luck...

A soft smile appeared on Mabel’s lips, though her eyes were misted with a faint layer of tears. How wonderful it would be if her father were still alive now.

Perhaps things at home wouldn’t be as they were now, and her father could see her happiness today.

Grace Yowell quietly stayed by the side, not disturbing her. She just hoped that Mabel kept handling the badge, so the poison could work more effectively. Chapters fırst released on novᴇlfire.net

Suddenly, Grace caught sight of a figure out of the corner of her eye, and instant shock registered on her face.

"Daniel... how... how are you here?" Grace exclaimed in surprise.

The next moment, Daniel Harris had rushed to Mabel’s side, grabbing her shoulders and pulling her up from the chair, "Mabel, are you alright?"

His tone was full of urgency, eyes flooded with concern.

Mabel shook her head, "I’m fine, but why are you..."
