Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 1011 - 945: A Good Show
Mountain Eagle also didn't know what kind of impression he left on Peggy at Li Chengji's Beverly Manor. Looking at Peggy, who clearly had something to ask from him, he said somewhat helplessly, "Peggy, I'm here for an important matter."
Peggy was stunned for a moment and then curiously asked, "What are you here for?
Tell me about it, I know some influential people in New Laredo, maybe I can help!"
Mountain Eagle thought for a moment and said, "I'm here to find someone..."
Peggy's eyes were fixed on Mountain Eagle's expression. After hearing him, she rubbed her slender neck with her right hand and said, "You're here for..." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
Mountain Eagle shook his head with a smile, "No, I'm here to find someone to ask a few questions. If possible, I'd prefer not too many people know I've been here."
Peggy understood at once...
Mountain Eagle meant that the person he was looking for was very important, and if necessary, he wouldn't mind taking action right here.
Peggy had witnessed Mountain Eagle's involvement in those two gambling events in Los Angeles that concerned hundreds of millions of dollars, and she knew how powerful the man in front of her was. So she curiously asked, "What kind of person are you looking for?
Maybe I can help..."
Mountain Eagle didn't think a woman who made a living by helping others get divorced and break up could help him. He shook his head and said, "Let's talk about you instead...
What exactly is the matter?
A woman like you coming to New Laredo is going to encounter a lot of danger, even having a meal with you could bring trouble."
Saying this, Mountain Eagle turned his head to glance at the entrance of the restaurant, where Raul Blanco was pointing and gesturing in his direction with a waiter...
Seeing this, Mountain Eagle smiled and shook his head, saying, "Looks like that mayor's son has taken a shine to you.
Do you need me to take care of it?"
Peggy wasn't particularly concerned about the mayor's son. She looked at the wedding scene not far off, sighed, and said, "I want to ruin that wedding over there. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Mountain Eagle was taken aback and said with amusement, "Ruining other people's marriages is your specialty. You're asking the wrong person about this."
With that, Mountain Eagle curiously looked back at the wedding scene. The bride and groom hadn't appeared yet, but judging by the attire and demeanor of the guests, and the mayor's son evidently here for the wedding, the groom's family seemed to be of some prominence...
"Why would you want to ruin someone else's wedding?
Is sabotaging a young person's love difficult for you?"
Faced with Mountain Eagle's not-so-sharp sarcasm, Peggy rolled her eyes and said, "On the contrary, my people have already ruined the groom's love. The groom broke up with his fiancée a week ago...
For this, I got a large commission from the girl's father!"
Mountain Eagle, intrigued, said, "The father of the groom's fiancée hired you to ruin his daughter's marriage?
What's the story?"
With a seductive smile on her lips, Peggy said, "It's the emergency measure taken by a good father who discovered his future son-in-law was unworthy.
So, Mountain Eagle, drop your prejudices. Although I make money from people breaking up, sometimes I really help my clients avoid the biggest risks in life."
Mountain Eagle listened, nodded with a smile, and said, "If what you say is true, then you really have helped them.
But since you succeeded, why continue?
Did the father of tonight's bride also make a request?"
Peggy sighed, a bit helpless, and said, "Tonight's bride is one of mine...
Originally, she should have withdrawn immediately after succeeding, but for some special reasons, she had no choice but to agree to marry tonight's groom."
Mountain Eagle didn't think Peggy's subordinates would be good women. He frowned and said, "As I see it, marriage isn't necessarily a bad thing for your subordinates.
At the very least, tonight's groom is definitely wealthier than your subordinate..."
Peggy knew Mountain Eagle was implying that marrying a rich man could bring wealth to her and her subordinates...
Facing Mountain Eagle's prejudice, Peggy seriously said, "Mountain Eagle, we have our professional ethics, not getting too involved with clients is one of the most important rules!"
Mountain Eagle listened and slightly nodded, saying, "You're right, but your subordinate clearly didn't listen to you."
"Aisha has special reasons, so I don't want to watch her jump into the fire pit..."
Peggy looked at the wedding scene not far away with a complicated expression. She said somewhat helplessly, "Tonight's groom is called Jose Simonis, he is a border trader.
In the eyes of outsiders, Jose is a great guy, but his father is a core member of Los Zetas. Although his current public identity is the chairman of a large trading company, in reality, he oversees Los Zetas' border oil and some drug smuggling business.
And coincidentally, Jose's father personally buried Aisha's entire family alive in the Texas desert back then.
Aisha's father is a border patrol officer!"
Mountain Eagle was surprised and said, "Do you mean that your subordinate Aisha married this Jose for revenge?"
Mountain Eagle looked at Peggy with a complex expression and curiously said, "You actually came to the Los Zetas territory for your subordinate.
As far as I know about this drug cartel, once your subordinate is exposed, she, and even you, will be cut to pieces."
Peggy looked at Mountain Eagle with a resentful expression and said somewhat sadly, "So what in your eyes should I be?
Maybe in your eyes, I'm just a bitch stirring up emotions, but I know what we are..."
Mountain Eagle was stunned, then he awkwardly rubbed his cheek and sincerely apologized to Peggy, "OK, I admit I have a prejudice against your business, I apologize for being frivolous before."
After hearing this, Peggy's expression changed, instantly turning from a slightly resentful woman into a proud career woman...
"I don't mind how others see me, after all, our job is to ruin other people's relationships, and I'm proud that we always win.
We have proven that, whether it's men or women, betrayal is the ultimate outcome of love, we just accelerate the process."
Mountain Eagle had long witnessed Peggy's chameleon-like ability, and said somewhat helplessly, "Though I don't think this is something to be proud of, but it's about making money..."
After saying this, Mountain Eagle changed the topic and no longer proactively asked Peggy questions, instead leading the topic to New Laredo City...
The two talked and laughed over a glass of red wine, and soon the seafood platter in the restaurant arrived.
High-end restaurants are not places to get full; after finishing a lobster platter, Mountain Eagle didn't feel anything in his stomach.
Peggy noticed Mountain Eagle seemed still hungry, she cheerfully placed half a lobster into his plate, and said with a smile, "I want to lose weight, and I'm more interested in their dessert, these lobsters were caught this morning, let's not waste them."
Mountain Eagle didn't feel awkward at all, he gracefully removed the lobster meat covered with thick cheese and stuffed it into his mouth; after a few chews, he said with a smile, "The taste of the lobster is indeed great, but unfortunately, no matter how much you eat, it doesn't fill you up.
Maybe after we finish this meal, we should go find a place for a drink..."
Peggy knew Mountain Eagle was hinting that she should leave this dangerous place with him...
Faced with Mountain Eagle's good intentions, Peggy slightly shook her head and said, "NO, I want to take my people back!"
Mountain Eagle couldn't understand where Peggy's confidence came from, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "How are you planning to do it?
Are you going to grab your person when the wedding starts, or after the wedding take your subordinate away?"
Peggy shook the wine glass in her hand, looked at Mountain Eagle and smiled, "You'll find out later..."
As Peggy said this, a waiter pushed a dining cart next to them...
After politely greeting them, the waiter removed two large covers from the cart, revealing two large plates with 5cm square desserts on them.
Seeing Peggy's expectant face, Mountain Eagle couldn't help but laugh and said, "If someone charges me $85 for eating this, I'd definitely suspect I'm being scammed."
Holding a small spoon, Peggy looked at the tempting dessert expectantly, rolled her eyes at Mountain Eagle's comment, and said, "You know, some things are meant for enjoyment, sometimes too much can affect our experience."
Saying this, Peggy used a delicate silver spoon to scoop a piece of dessert into her mouth, then her expression suddenly froze...
A few seconds later, Peggy picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth, looked at Mountain Eagle helplessly and said, "Someone drugged the dessert, I think I'm really in trouble."
Mountain Eagle frowned upon hearing this and observed the surroundings, seeing the nearby garden where a wedding was taking place, the guy named Raul Blanco and his friends were gathered with wine glasses, occasionally glancing their way.
Not understanding the thought process of these gentlemen, he picked up a spoon and scooped a piece of dessert to smell it...
A mix of honey, butter, and nutty sweetness instantly filled Mountain Eagle's nostrils...
This pudding-like, overly sweet dessert was really not his type, but he didn't detect anything abnormal.
So he looked at Peggy and curiously asked, "How did you know someone drugged the dessert?"
With the anticipated dessert bite disrupted, Peggy's face lost its smile...
Facing Mountain Eagle's question, Peggy said expressionlessly, "Through the taste...
If we didn't have this ability, women like us would have no way to retreat unscathed from complicated social situations."
As she spoke, Peggy leaned back, arms crossed, looking at the wedding scene not far away, seeing Raul Blanco and his buddies pointing at her side, she revealed a meaningful smile and said to Mountain Eagle, "Mountain Eagle, stay and watch a good show later, and let me stay in your room for one night, okay?
You rest assured, there won't be much trouble, I originally wanted to be alone, but seeing you, a woman like me can't help but want to seek protection."
By this time, through Crow, Mountain Eagle saw a convoy of Mexican military vehicles appearing on the distant street, and two helicopters flying in this direction...
Mountain Eagle, guessing what might happen next, smacked his lips and nodded saying, "I misunderstood you, at least I misjudged your so-called 'connections in New Laredo'...
Now I think you might really be able to give me answers on some issues!"
