Chapter 152 Temptation from Vanessa!

Concert hall, in front of the bar.

White widow Vanessa leaned against the bar, scanning the chaotic scene in the concert hall, looking at the wealthy elites who were spending lavishly and extravagantly:
"Money can infinitely magnify desires. Capital is always what people pursue. Look at how they spend money like water, and then look at their greedy eyes. They enjoy the flattering smiles of the beauties beside them, the envious eyes of the people around them, and the praise, admiration and power."

Roy turned around and leaned against the bar as well, following Vanessa's gaze to scan the audience, watching the unbearable humiliation without saying a word.

Isabella was about three meters away from Roy. She also leaned against the bar and looked down at the counter, but she was not looking at the extravagant and licentious rich people. Instead, she was observing whether there was any danger approaching quietly. Her mission was to ensure Roy's safety.

Vanessa turned her head to look at Roy's handsome profile and asked, "Mr. Bond, what would you like to drink?"

“Champagne!”

For Roy, it doesn't matter what kind of wine it is, it's still an alcoholic drink anyway, and since he's drinking a drink, he might as well drink some champagne.

Vanessa snapped her fingers at the bartender:

"Two glasses of champagne!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Isabella across from Roy and said, "Mr. Bond, what would your friend like to drink?"

"Same with her!"

Vanessa looked at the bartender and said, "Three!"

The bartender pushed three glasses of champagne to Vanessa, Roy and Isabella.

Vanessa was the first to raise her champagne glass.

Roy also picked up the champagne glass, and the two clinked their glasses lightly. Vanessa took a sip first, and Roy also took a sip at the same time. Seeing that there was no prompt sound, he exchanged his champagne glass with Isabella's and took another sip. Still no prompt sound was heard.

Vanessa put her snow-white arms on the bar, turned sideways to face Roy, and her snow-white skin was faintly visible under her deep V-neck:
"What is your goal in life? In other words, what is your ideal? Money, power and women, which one do you prefer? Mr. Bond."

Roy turned to look at the charming Vanessa, his eyes showing a soft light and intoxication, and took a sip of champagne:

"I have always been chasing money and also yearning for power. Do you know? If a man can have you, he will get endless money and supreme power."

Vanessa covered her mouth and laughed. She first looked at the ceiling, then lowered her head and smiled and shook her head:

"Mr. Bond, you are so good at talking. Have you captured the hearts of countless women with your mouth? Just like the one next to you."

Roy glanced at Isabella's profile and smiled without saying anything.

Vanessa's white and smooth fingers slid slowly on the bar counter, and finally stopped on the back of Roy's hand, tapping gently:
"Mr. Bond, do you know what I am thinking at this moment?"

Roy looked into Vanessa's charming eyes:

"Are you thinking tonight or later..."

Vanessa looked up at the ceiling again, smiling brightly, and said to the air:

"Mr. Bond, you are really amazing."

Roy kept silent again, picked up the little remaining champagne, drank it all in one gulp, and his eyes stayed on the many wealthy people in the audience.

Turning her gaze back to Roy, Vanessa moved closer, first smelled the perfume on Roy's body, and then asked in a low voice:

“Why didn’t you ask me the price?”

Roy turned his head and looked Vanessa in the eye. He gently lifted Vanessa's chin with his left hand, and his gaze gradually shifted to Vanessa's flaming red lips. He said softly:
"When you want to speak, you will speak naturally."

Vanessa's heart beat violently. She felt that she was aroused by the handsome man in front of her. The next second, her flaming red lips slowly moved forward. Just when they were about to touch each other, she suddenly turned and brushed across Roy's cheek, came to his ear, and whispered:

"Not only did I let you meet Augustus Walker, I also helped you catch him. These are two different businesses, but I'm not short of money now. What do you think I should do?"

Roy also whispered into Vanessa's ear:
"Let me guess what's going on in your mind. You want a favor. You want me to do you something you can't do, Miss Vanessa."

Vanessa chuckled in Roy's ear, and when the laughter subsided, she whispered:
"You are very capable. I want a favor, but I want you to do two things for me. I don't think you will refuse me. Do you think I am right?"

Roy smiled slightly: "It depends on what it is."

"Bond!"

Vanessa was about to speak when she suddenly heard Isabella's shout. She turned her head sharply and saw more than a dozen people rushing towards her.

Roy picked up the champagne glass and threw it at Old Black who was the first one to rush. The champagne glass slipped out of his hand and hit Old Black directly in the face. In an instant, the champagne glass exploded, and the broken glass fragments pierced Old Black's eyes.

"what!!"

Lao Hei covered his eyes with his hands and howled in pain.

[Throwing: Throwing proficiency +1]

Roy grabbed the bald old black man's head with his big hands and slammed it against the leg of the bar table. With a bang, old black fell to the ground and his life or death was unknown.

Isabella quickly jumped off the high stool and started to glare at, lock her throat, and kick her in the crotch at the white man who was rushing towards her.

Suddenly, a flying knife cut through the air and flew straight towards Vanessa. Roy, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, hugged Vanessa in his arms, and with the help of dynamic vision, he directly grasped the handle of the dagger that was flipping in the air.

Vanessa: “…”

[Air Grab: Reaction +1]

[Motion Capture: Motion Sensitivity +1]

Roy turned his hand and grasped the tip of the dagger, then threw it at the person who had just thrown the dagger. The next second, the dagger pierced the man's throat. The white man leaned back and fell on his back in mid-air, with no signs of life.

[Throwing: Throwing proficiency +1]

Seeing Roy's throw so accurately, Vanessa, who was in crisis, actually showed an excited smile. She quickly lifted her skirt, reached out to the outside of her snow-white thigh, pulled out a folding knife, and stabbed it fiercely at Roy's back.

Roy looked back and saw that Vanessa's folding knife had stabbed straight into the attacker's collarbone. The attacker had a painful expression on his face.

Roy pulled out his folding knife and used the "Eighteen stabs in Three Seconds" technique. In just three seconds, Roy stabbed the opponent eighteen times.

The attacker collapsed dazed.

Returning the folding knife to Vanessa, Roy took her hand and rushed forward. Facing the three attackers rushing over, Roy poked his finger into her eyeball, penetrated the cartilage at the back, and directly inserted it into the brain stem.

Vanessa was not idle either. She caught someone and stabbed him fiercely, and the blood spurted out and splashed all over her white dress.

After dealing with the three attackers, Isabella quickly moved towards Roy. During the process, she saw someone in the crowd holding up a pistol. She quickly pulled out a mini pistol from the holster on the inside of her thigh. Just as she was about to aim, she was shocked to find that the man who had just raised the gun had been pierced through the head by a folding knife.

Roy stepped forward, pulled out his folding knife amid the cheers of the crowd, and returned it to Vanessa. Vanessa took the folding knife and whispered in Roy's ear: "What I want you to do is something you can do easily. It's very simple for you!"

Roy knocked one man down with his backhand and broke his neck with his big foot: "That's fine, but if I think what you ask is too much, I will refuse. Of course, you can still ask me to do something else."

"make a deal!"

As she finished her words, Vanessa threw her folding knife, knocking down the last attacker.

The two looked at each other, Vanessa smiled charmingly at Roy, and the next second, she took Roy's hand and ran to the backstage.

Seeing this, Isabella quickly followed...

The wealthy people at the scene saw a bloody feast, but they were not afraid or terrified at all. Instead, they applauded at the same time.

There was warm applause in the concert hall.

Waiters and security personnel began to clean up the bodies in public.

Arriving at the backstage of the concert hall, Vanessa could no longer contain her excitement. She held Roy's cheeks with both hands and kissed him directly.

Isabella, who was following behind, saw this scene, stopped, snorted, and turned around immediately.

Her red lips parted, and a hint of greed appeared in Vanessa's eyes.

"Who are those people?" Roy asked.

"Walker's people have nothing to do with you. Their target is me. They want to capture me and exchange me for Walker." Vanessa said, staring into Roy's eyes.

"You killed so many of Walker's men. Aren't you afraid that the CIA will cause trouble for you?" Roy asked, staring into Vanessa's eyes.

"Someone in the CIA wants Walker gone!"

Hearing this, Roy thought to himself: Good fellow, your calculations are so good and your business is so good, but it turns out you are having the best of both worlds, taking other people's money and selling favors to me at the same time.

"follow me……"

Vanessa pulled Roy out of the backstage, opened the secret door, walked through the corridor, and pushed open the last double wooden door:

"Welcome to my office."

After Roy and Isabella entered, the two bodyguards closed the door.

Vanessa looked down at her evening gown which was stained with blood. "Wait here for a while. I'll go change into another set of clothes."

Roy and Isabella sat down on the sofa.

About fifteen minutes later, Vanessa appeared in front of Roy in a changed outfit.

The long skirt became a short skirt, showing off her long and straight legs. Vanessa not only changed her clothes, but also her makeup.

When she came in front of Roy, Vanessa turned her head to look at Isabella and asked, "What do you think of him? Is he good?"

Isabella, who had hardly spoken the whole time, ignored Vanessa's boring questions. She just hoped that the other party would hand over August Walker as soon as possible and leave here quickly.

Isabella stood up and sat on the sofa alone.

Vanessa sat where Isabella had just sat, her fair and smooth palms gently placed on Roy's thighs, her eyes directed towards Isabella.

Isabella thought Vanessa was boring.

Turning back, Vanessa looked at Roy:
"Who do you think is prettier, me or her?"

Roy lifted Vanessa's hair:

"You are asking me whether Spanish women are better or French women are better. It's a difficult question for me to answer..."

Vanessa smiled and asked:

"Have you ever had a French girlfriend?"

After a little thought, Roy replied:

"As far as I can remember, there really isn't one."

Vanessa flirted with Isabella:

"Would you like to try it, Mr. Bond?"

Faced with Vanessa's constant provocation, Roy's heart was indeed burning with anger. Every time he killed someone, his hormones would surge. He had become accustomed to it.

"Is this the first thing you asked me to do?"

"What are you thinking? How can what I ask you to do be so simple? You don't think I'm taking advantage of you, do you, Mr. Bond?"

Roy smiled slightly and shook his head helplessly.

Vanessa turned her head and looked at the two bodyguards, and ordered, "You go out first. No matter what noise you hear later, you are not allowed to come in!"

"Yes!"

The two bodyguards pushed the door and left the office.

Isabella saw that this was going to...

Immediately, she stood up from the sofa and was about to leave.

"and many more!"

Vanessa looked at Isabella.

Isabella turned around and asked, "What?"

"You can't leave, just watch here..."

hiss--

Isabella took a deep breath.
