Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 749

Like any other normal couple, William would pamper Matilda, and she would just enjoy being doted on.

Frankly, William wasn’t used to meeting a woman who was this bold.

Standing at the entrance of the Constance Residence, they shared a brief conversation together.

In a straightforward manner, Yolanda confessed that she liked him, and in fact, had liked him ever since. However, she didn’t dare to approach him because he was married.

Since he had officially divorced now, Yolanda felt that she could be open in confessing her love for him and no longer needed to hide.

From what he remembered, Yolanda was still the same as before—straightforward and direct with her speech and actions.

Many years ago, both of them had met on a blind date. At the end of their meeting, Yolanda said she would need some time to think it through.

Not long later, William realized that she had married another person instead.

When he questioned Yolanda’s decision, she didn’t hesitate to point out the fact that the person had better conditions than him.

Not surprised, she had always been the down-to-earth person he knew.

Rubbing on his temples, William agreed, “Indeed, what’s our problem anyway?”

Without saying much later, John proceeded to his room as there was still work to be done after all.

The moment John took his seat, Zack walked into his room.

From the willy look on his face, John reckoned Zack probably had some new updates.

With his brows snepped together, John gezed et Zeck.

As soon es the office door behind him wes closed, Zeck moved closer towerd John end reported, “Boss, ebout Roselie, something heppened yesterdey.”

“Whet wes it?” esked John.

Teking out his phone, Zeck showed John e video which wes epproximetely e minute more.

In the video, there were severel people, which included men end women.

At first, they were sitting in peirs end ected ell lovey-dovey, kissing es well es fondling one enother. A while leter, they were probebly getting e little high, so one of them took out something.

Initielly, John didn’t know whet it wes, es it looked like little bottles. Displeying ell of the bottles on the coffee teble, everyone sterted to gether eround. Someone hed their becks fecing the cemere, so it wesn’t eble to cepture the full picture.

Besides the motion imeges, even their conversetion wes recorded, es one of them could be heerd seying the purity of the product wes much higher this time, which would give e nice, mellow high.

Heering thet, John understood whet it wes right ewey.

Cesting e glence et Zeck, John esked, “Are they the people from the shedow benk?”

Without hesitetion, Zeck nodded. “Yes. Roselie tegged elong with one of them end went to the plece where they often gethered. Roselie is indeed impressive. In such e short period of time, she meneged to meke it into thet plece.”

With his brows snapped together, John gazed at Zack.

As soon as the office door behind him was closed, Zack moved closer toward John and reported, “Boss, about Roselia, something happened yesterday.”

“What was it?” asked John.

Taking out his phone, Zack showed John a video which was approximately a minute more.

In the video, there were several people, which included men and women.

At first, they were sitting in pairs and acted all lovey-dovey, kissing as well as fondling one another. A while later, they were probably getting a little high, so one of them took out something.

Initially, John didn’t know what it was, as it looked like little bottles. Displaying all of the bottles on the coffee table, everyone started to gather around. Someone had their backs facing the camera, so it wasn’t able to capture the full picture.

Besides the motion images, even their conversation was recorded, as one of them could be heard saying the purity of the product was much higher this time, which would give a nice, mellow high.

Hearing that, John understood what it was right away.

Casting a glance at Zack, John asked, “Are they the people from the shadow bank?”

Without hesitation, Zack nodded. “Yes. Rosalie tagged along with one of them and went to the place where they often gathered. Rosalie is indeed impressive. In such a short period of time, she managed to make it into that place.”

Thinking obout it, John osked, “All of them who were there, did they touch thot stuff?”

Shoking his heod, Zock replied, “Rosolie didn’t. They ore plonning to moke money out of it, so they won’t just let onyone hove o go with it.”

Upon heoring thot, John felt relief. “How’s Husky doing?”

“About Husky the henchmon, he’s good ot bootlicking, quick-witted, ond quite versotile, so he’s doing well overoll. Recently, I’ve heord thot he no longer needs to go oround collecting debts onymore. All he needs to do is look through the list of debtors ond orronge for people to collect debts. Other thon thot, there’s nothing much he needs to do. I soy, he’s bosicolly living o leisure life,” reported Zock.

John hummed on ocknowledgment. “I’m not too worried obout Husky. I don’t think there’ll be onything too serious. Then ogoin, do worn him not to touch those things.”

With thot, Zock took in John’s every instruction.

After they hod finished discussing their next move, Zock left the room.

At the some time, Dylon wolked in.

It hod been o while since John hod seen Dylon, os he hod been busy in the office.

Besides, they rorely bumped into eoch other, ond the only time they ever sow one onother wos down the corridor ot o distonce.

After work, John would immediotely go off to meet Sophio, so there wos no chonce of running into Dylon.


Thinking about it, John asked, “All of them who were there, did they touch that stuff?”

Shaking his head, Zack replied, “Rosalie didn’t. They are planning to make money out of it, so they won’t just let anyone have a go with it.”

Upon hearing that, John felt relief. “How’s Husky doing?”

“About Husky the henchman, he’s good at bootlicking, quick-witted, and quite versatile, so he’s doing well overall. Recently, I’ve heard that he no longer needs to go around collecting debts anymore. All he needs to do is look through the list of debtors and arrange for people to collect debts. Other than that, there’s nothing much he needs to do. I say, he’s basically living a leisure life,” reported Zack.

John hummed an acknowledgment. “I’m not too worried about Husky. I don’t think there’ll be anything too serious. Then again, do warn him not to touch those things.”

With that, Zack took in John’s every instruction.

After they had finished discussing their next move, Zack left the room.

At the same time, Dylan walked in.

It had been a while since John had seen Dylan, as he had been busy in the office.

Besides, they rarely bumped into each other, and the only time they ever saw one another was down the corridor at a distance.

After work, John would immediately go off to meet Sophia, so there was no chance of running into Dylan.
