Chapter 46 Sold Grace Out
Then a strong and robust bodyguard stood in front of her.
“Sir, here is the place of the Royal Club. What are you doing? No one dare to be rude to the staff in this
club.”
Mr. Du hesitated. Even he came from the south, he still heard of the powerful background of the Royal
Club.
Suddenly, a man stepped in the box from outside, and he whispered a few words to Mr. Du. Hearing
that, the hesitation lingering in his eyes was soon dissipated, “Miss Carter, I heard that you have been
banished by the Royal Club. Since then, you will never be protected by the club.”
Hearing that, Ruby suddenly recalled the words of Gloria that day. Her face turned ghastly pale at that
time, “No!!! Don’t do that to me!”
“Don’t worry, Miss Carter. We won’t do anything to hurt you. What I want is that I need you to perform
me a show.”
“What show?”
“You will know when you see the tool my friend brought for me.” While speaking, a huge apparent box
was sent in the private box.
That huge box was place vertically, with a height of three meters.
That huge box looked quite familiar with a coffin placed in the same way, but with a bigger space than
the coffin. It could easily fit three or even four people in.
This huge coffin-liked box was sealed tight all over except for the top, where there was no lid covering
on it.
In the dark corner of the corridor, Franklin snubbed out the cigarette and threw the butt into the trash
bin when he saw the huge box was sent into the box. Then he turned around and left.
Meanwhile, in the private box.
“Miss Carter,” Mr. Du took out a check with a smile. Then he wrote an enormous figure in the view of
Ruby. After that, Mr. Du handed it over to Ruby, “Miss Ruby, here is the reward I pay for your
performance.”
“One million?” Ruby could not help but scream. She felt like the number on the check was too dazzling.
But then she started to doubt that what kind of performance would be worth one million dollars.
Ruby stared at Mr. Du alertly, “What kind of performance it would be?” Though feeling suspicious, she
still wanted to get that money.
Mr. Du pointed at the huge box, “Miss Carter, have you seen a live person struggling fiercely in the
water? That is the performance I want to see. Please get inside.”
At that time, those workers who sent the box in had already started to transfused water into the box
from bathroom. The water mounted slowly in the box.
The delicate face of Ruby turned pale again.
“No! No! I will drown!” Ruby shook her head with her ghastly pale face.
“No, no, no! Of course we dare not to kill you.” Mr. Du said with a gentle smile, “It will take
approximately four to six minutes to drown a human. Miss Ruby, you are only required to stay in the
water for three minutes. And we will get you out after that.”
“If that’s the case, why are you willing to offer one million as reward?” Though it was a tempting offer,
Ruby still managed to stay sober.
“Well, Miss Ruby, just in case. You know, there will be always something unexpected happening in our
lives.” What Mr. Du meant was quite obviously. Though they would try their best to avoid any accident,
there might be still something unfortunate happening.
Ruby was in a flustered that she kept rolling her eyes and shaking her heads. She did not even expect
that she lost the shield provided by the Royal Club. She really regretted for not having followed Gloria’s
suggestion. But unfortunately, it was too late to regret about it. NôvelDrama.Org content.
Suddenly, someone seemed to pop out into her mind.
She raised her hand and shouted at Mr. Du nervously while taking a deep breath, “Mr. Du, I know
someone who is absolutely suitable to perform this show.”
“Well, who?” Mr. Du looked at this ‘interesting’ girl recommended by Franklin with a smile.
Though Ruby was seemingly pure and innocent, Mr. Du could still tell that she was a scheming and
cunning girl as well.
Mr. Du did not make things difficult for her. He was also a bit curious about the one that Ruby tried to
recommend.
“Her name is Grace James, a staff in the Public Relation Department. She is a real gold digger.” Ruby
even specially stress on the word ‘gold digger’.
Mr. Du seemed to get interested, “Well, just tell me why she is a gold digger?”
Since that woman was tagged with ‘gold digger’, she must also be an interesting one.
Mr. Du, as a sophisticate businessman, was quite aware of that.
Even those Japanese businessmen could capture the simple meaning of their conversation when
hearing the words ‘gold digger’.
Suddenly, all of them started to get excited about it.
“Well, Grace is my roommate. And she is really addicted to money. She could do anything to earn
money. She has even done something much more weird and creepy to earn money. Let alone a small
drowning show.”
“Well, just tell me something more specific.”
“Grace was even willing to crawl on the ground begging for money. Mr. Du, I am not just exaggerating.
Everyone in the Royal Club knows about it. She had just crawled on the ground and barked like a dog
to beg for money. So, Mr. Du, I guarantee that she will be the best actress for your show.”
Mr. Du smiled willfully, “Beal, lead that girl to me.”
Ruby lowered her head and heaved a breath of relief. But she was a bit hesitant while thinking that she
might meet Grace again later. She bit her lips and suppressed the urge to stop Mr. Du, ‘Well, it is not a
deadly show after all. They promise they will get her out after three minutes.’
