Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 235

Robert removed his reading glasses and casually threw the unfinished documents aside.

He picked up his teacup and said, "I think Angeline should stay away from people related to Ned. Nothing good ever comes from encountering him."

"There's no need to rush this matter. As you said, Ms. Angeline didn't admit to having a boyfriend today, which probably means they're still getting to know each other. Perhaps Ms. Angeline will find Mr. Hooper interesting at your birthday banquet!"

Robert nodded in agreement.

"Then should we continue investigating Ms. Angeline?" Asher asked.

Thinking back to how upset Sean was when he had someone follow her before, Robert knew too well not to repeat the same mistake.

"No, stop the investigation. We don't want Angeline to be upset if she finds out."

"Alright."

After finishing their meal, Angeline, Danny, and Simon left the restaurant.

The weather had turned cooler all of a sudden. Simon gallantly removed his suit jacket and draped it over Angeline's shoulders. A warm smile reached his charming gray eyes.

"Okay, that's enough!" said Danny with hands shoved in his trouser pockets while raising an eyebrow.

At the sight of his displeased expression, Angeline joked, "So that's why you're still single."

Danny was rendered speechless.

"I sincerely hope you'll consider joining our team," Simon said earnestly.

Angeline signaled to Danny when she saw the black Passat parked on the roadside.

She didn't return Simon's suit jacket as she anticipated some inconvenience later.

"I'll return the jacket next time we meet."

Danny nodded.

As Simon saw Angeline off into the cab, he lit a cigarette while turning his head to glance at the Passat. A wisp of smoke escaped his lips, obscuring the expression in his eyes. Simon opened the cab door and, after she got in, leaned against the door with one hand.

"Angeline, I really hope we can work together."

"I will consider it," she said with a grin.

As the cab drove away, the black Passat followed suit. After bidding farewell to Simon, Danny drove after them. A few moments later, several vans parked nearby hurriedly followed.

In the back seat, Angeline noticed how the cab driver was frequently glancing at her through the rearview mirror, but she continued texting.

Knowing that the cab had left the city, she sent a message to Danny before locking her phone screen and looking up at the driver smilingly. "Where are you taking me?"

As she finished speaking, Danny's car suddenly rushed out and forced the cab to a stop. The driver panicked and turned to grab her, but she grabbed his wrist and forcefully twisted it from behind the seat.

The driver screamed in agony as his arm dislocated.

Danny got out of his car, loosened his tie, opened the driver's door, and pulled him out.

At the sudden turn of events, the

black Passat attempted to reverse, but the six vans that had been

following behind with their lights off all switched them on

simultaneously, blocking the road completely.

Before the Passat could reverse, it was rear-ended by one of the vans that had rushed out. Inside the Passat, the driver looked anxiously at the scar-faced man in the passenger seat.

"Boss, we can't escape anymore!"

The scar-faced man grabbed a club and pushed open the door.

"What else can we do? Let's fight!"

The four other men inside the Passat grabbed weapons and got out of the car, only to find the cab driver thrown into the midst of the encirclement.

Standing in front of the car lights, Angeline buttoned up Simon's jacket while Danny and his men surrounded the five individuals who had stepped out of the Passat.
