Although Christine thought so in her heart, she still smiled, nodded, and raised her glass.

Just as she raised her neck and prepared to drink, a fierce light flashed in the man's eyes.

He clenched the wine glass and splashed the liquid in the glass toward Christine's face.

Christine was keenly aware of the danger and leaned back at a large angle, with her upper body almost parallel to the ground.

The unknown liquid in the wine glass flew past her, splashing onto the ground a few meters away, and then splashed onto the calves and feet of a group of ladies.

"Ah!!!"

A heart-wrenching scream was heard.

Black eschars quickly appeared on the ladies' legs and feet, followed by bone-eating burning pain.

"What's wrong?"

"What happened there?"

The guests turned their eyes this way.

Christine stood up straight, looking at the man in front of her with a calm expression, but her light blue eyes revealed a strong murderous intent.

When the man saw that the concentrated sulfuric acid had not hit her, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

He grabbed the wine glass and threw it at Christine, but she dodged it lightly without even moving a step.

The man lifted his suit and removed a pocket dagger from his belt buckle.

"Go to hell, bitch!"

He roared and rushed toward Christine.

At this time, the guests in the hall also realized that a killer had sneaked into the banquet hall.

They did not choose to step forward to subdue the killer and rescue Christine, but fled in panic, not even caring about their companions who were just chatting and laughing.

The man had reached the point of being completely exhausted. For Christine, this level of attack was as easy as subduing an unarmed child.

She found the right moment and dodged the thrust by leaning sideways.

Then she grabbed the man's right arm with one hand and pulled him forward.

The man was pushed and staggered, falling onto the marble floor covered with concentrated sulfuric acid.

The moment his hands touched the ground, eschars appeared on his palms.

He quickly rolled to the side and howled as he looked at the dark palm.

At this time, he also understood that his mission had failed.

But at least he could bite the poison in his mouth and commit suicide to avoid implicating the master behind him.

The man's lips moved up and down rapidly, and Christine saw through his thoughts in an instant.

She walked up quickly and kicked him hard in the jaw.

The black high heels came into close contact with the chin, and there was a sound of bones breaking.

The man's eyes rolled back, and he was knocked unconscious by the powerful kick.

The killer was dealt with.

Christine turned around and saw that all the men and women in the hall had already run out of the door. The braver ones were more than ten meters away from the scene. The newly promoted major was among them.

"Snort!"

Christine snorted sarcastically and walked out of the villa hall arrogantly.

When she got outside, she saw the assistant running toward her anxiously.

"Christine! Are you okay?"

"Certainly!"

Seeing that she was safe and sound, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she took out her ringing handbag and said, "The phone in your bag kept ringing. As you instructed, I came to you as soon as possible and did not open the bag without permission."

"Yeah! You did a great job."

Christine took the handbag and walked alone to the garden outside the villa.

She took out her cell phone, and the caller ID was still a string of asterisks.

"Hello!"

"Damn it, you finally answered the phone!"

Jason's anxious voice came from the phone.

Christine thought that something was wrong with him, so she quickly covered her mouth and asked in a low voice, "What? Is there something wrong with you?"

"Everything is going well on my end, but I have something urgent to tell you. Avril has ambushed assassins at tonight's cocktail party."

"Based on the conversation between her and her men, I guess she wants the killer to throw sulfuric acid on your face. Once you are disfigured, you will not be able to compete with her for men in the future."

"So, you must be extremely careful at the party and always keep an eye out for suspicious people! Forget it, I advise you not to attend the party and find an excuse to leave!"

Jason spoke very quickly, full of worry and anxiety.

His heartfelt words made Christine feel warm inside.

A sincere smile appeared on her face. It was not a professional smile that she wore to deal with outsiders, but a smile that came from the heart and could not be expressed in words.

Christine leaned against a palm tree, looking up at the bright starry sky.

The scenes of knowing, falling in love with Jason over the years unconsciously emerged in her mind.

If she had trusted him a little more and understood him a little more back then, perhaps she would have started a family and lived a happy life by now.

However, it is not too late now.

Christine smiled sweetly and asked tentatively, "You called me so anxiously, are you concerned about me? Could it be that you want to abandon Harleen Quinzel and get back together with me?"

Jason was stunned for a moment, then became furious.

"Damn it, I've been making several phone calls and am as anxious as a flea, and you actually still have time to think about these love matters."

Jason was furious and yelled at the phone, "I care about you! Go home now!"

Hearing the busy tone in her ear, Christine's face turned black and she was shaking with anger.

The little bit of emotion she just felt was thrown to the ground.

Go to hell, scumbag!

Seeing him hang up the phone with a roar, Harley quickly asked, "Is she okay?"

Jason said angrily, "Yes."

After saying that, he sat back on the sofa and continued to monitor the conversation in the next box.

Avril and her bodyguards drank and sang while waiting for good news from Beverly Hills.

About ten minutes later, the bodyguard's cell phone rang.

Avril turned off the music, and the box immediately became quiet.

"Hello..."

The bodyguard answered the phone and put it to his ear. After a moment, his face turned pale.

Avril had a bad feeling in her heart and asked quickly, "What happened? Did the mission fail?"

The bodyguard hung up the phone and nodded with a shameful look on his face.

"Shit!"

Avril angrily yelled, "You are all a bunch of trash. I gave you 1 million US dollars, and you found me this kind of trash."

"After the failure of this mission, that bitch will definitely take strict precautions. I don't know how long I will have to wait to find such an opportunity next time!"

The bodyguard's face twitched, and he stammered, "He's in big trouble! Not only did he fail in his mission, but he was also knocked down by Christine and failed to commit suicide. He has now been taken back to the police station for interrogation."

Hearing this, Jason secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but Avril's expression was as if she had seen a ghost.

"He...is not dead?"

The bodyguard nodded awkwardly.

Avril was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Not only did you fail the mission, but you couldn't even do something as simple as biting the poison in your mouth! I can't find the right words to describe your stupidity!"

Her expression was full of anger and panic.

Once that person tells the truth under duress at the police station, she will be completely finished.

Avril picked up the bottle of vodka and poured it into her mouth. Halfway through, she smashed the bottle against the wall.

With a loud crash, the wine bottle shattered, causing Jason's eardrums to hurt.

Avril had a dull expression and sat on the sofa in a daze.

At this moment, she was full of confusion and didn't know what to do.

After a moment, she stood up, put on her windbreaker, and walked out, and the bodyguards quickly followed her.

Jason took off his headphones and hurried out the door, pretending to go to the bathroom.

"Hey! Miss Avril."

He waved and greeted in a friendly manner.

But Avril didn't even look at him and rushed straight toward him. Jason staggered after being hit by her shoulder and took a few steps back, leaning against the wall.

Avril and the bodyguards did not apologize and went straight down to the second floor.

However, what they didn't know was that at the moment of the collision, a bug carrying a signal transmitter was secretly hidden in Avril's windbreaker pocket.

When they disappeared from sight, Jason walked into the next box and retrieved the hidden bug, then called Harley to leave the nightclub and walk toward the parking lot.

As soon as he arrived at the parking lot, he saw Avril and the bodyguard having a conflict.

"Let go of my hand! I'm in a bad mood now and I want to go for a ride."

"You were high and drunk a lot, so I'll drive."

Avril slapped the bodyguard in the face with her backhand, and asked with red eyes, "What qualifications do you have to manage me when you can't even handle such a small matter?"

The bodyguard lowered his head with a guilty look on his face, unable to utter a word in rebuttal.

Avril grabbed the keys and got into the Ferrari F430.

The fiery red Ferrari started up and roared out of the parking lot, while the bodyguards followed closely behind in four Cadillacs.

Jason opened the signal receiving software on his phone, and a red flashing dot appeared on the screen.

The effective range of the signal transmitter is ten kilometers, which allows Jason to follow them from a distance without being in a hurry.
