The Killer Queen ( Noella Briony )

Chapter 224 

The room fell into a deafening silence. The person seated next to Rainer clearly didn’t buy his explanation. 

“A good kid? You know precisely the kind of hardcore training she’s been through. On one hand, you call Garrick a madman, but you weren’t exactly pulling your punches during training sessions, were you?” 

“It was all Noelia’s choice” 

Rainer’s first lesson to Noella wasn’t about the zither; it was about taking a life! 

When Nocila first pulled the trigger, ending the lives of those who had taken the Fuller family’s money and left her stranded on the outskirts, she changed! 

Master Rainer had never seen such resilience in a child! 

Tears filled her eyes, yet she told Rainer with utter determination, “I’ll give anything to become stronger!” 

She 

was a miracle created by Polaris Star. Without any drugs to enhance her brain, Polaris Star had nurtured an exceptional prodigy! 

The training methods were indeed harsh, and initially, the new members of Polaris Star didn’t acknowledge this leader. But after witnessing the grueling training Noella endured, they joined in, only to realize they couldn’t keep up! 

Later, when Noella led them away from the original Polaris Star, those members became her loyal subordinates and partners. 

The person next to Rainer scoffed again. “You had already decided to break away from your old ties and conveniently placed your bets on that girl, just to ensure the current members of Polaris Star rallied behind her. All this, for one girl’s sake? You guys are so boring.” 

Master Rainer didn’t find it boring in the slightest, his tone even carried a hint of pride. “What do you know? You have no idea how formidable Noella is!” 

She was their brightest apprentice. If she desired the moon and the stars, they would move heaven and earth to obtain them. If they couldn’t, it wasn’t because her demands were too high; it was them who failed her. 

The person sitting beside Rainer was evidently at a loss for words against his oblivious affection. 

What kind of magic did Noella possess? 

The room quieted down once more. 

In an adjacent private booth, Palmer leisurely watched the numbers flicker on the electronic screen. 

“I need this information. Fiancée, bid higher for me, whatever the cost.” 

*Alright 

Palmer was after information on recent activities in a renowned economic development zone. 

It seemed like a regular business tip, with not many people showing interest. However, one private booth kept competing with Noella’s 

bids. 

The price stopped at six million five hundred thousand. 

Noella didn’t bid higher. “This information isn’t worth that much. Are you sure you want to keep raising the stakes?” 

“Your word is law.” 

Noella was left speechless. 

It was he who wanted to outsmart the competitors from the Pollack family, yet now it seemed she was calling the shots? 

Noella glanced at him, her gaze light. “Did you leak this information?” 

“How smart! My fiancée is indeed in tune with my thoughts.” 

* No one knew Palmer better than the Pollack family, but Palmer also knew the Pollack family better than anyone else! 

He was aware of their interests and conveniently had the information they craved, so selling it was no big deal. 

The land in the economic development zone was already in his possession anyway. He didn’t mind shifting all the money from the Pollack family’s pockets into his own. 

Palmer was adept at such schemes and knew exactly how to drive them to bankruptcy. He didn’t relish their sudden demise, but rather enjoyed watching them helplessly lose their fortunes! They had hurt his mother for money; he wouldn’t hesitate to take theirs! 

When Palmer had his fill of play, it would be time to close the net. 

Noella commented without mincing words. “You’re quite ruthless.” 

“Thank you for the compliment, my fiancée.” 

The auction soon ended, and Palmer, once again, fitted Noella’s mask and took her hand, leading her out of the room.

Noella was a bit speechless

Master Rainer waved a dismissive hand. “It’s trash plain and simple. I gave it away because of that! If you can’t bear to throw it out, just stick it in your music store and sell it off. It itates me just looking at it.”

Master Rainer as brisk in his departure as he was in amval, left soon after giving his instructions. 

At the grand entrance to Schnabel Manor, a car pulled up, and Noella unclipped her seat belt to step out. 

Palmer, however, showed no signs of leaving the vehicle. 

“There’s a bit of a situation at the company that needs my attention. You’ve had a long day. Get some rest and sweet dreams,” he said, with a hint of concern. 

Noella looked at him with a mix of amusement and exasperation. “I’m not convinced your body can handle any more stress.” 

Such a stubborn patient! 

Palmer drew her hand towards him and kissed the back of it softly. “Then I’ll stay. Grandpa can handle things for a day or two.” 

The old man could take a little hassle without much trouble. 

Seeing Noella’s frown of concern, a surge of joy filled him. Could it be a sign that she was starting to care for him too? 

Noella withdrew her hand. “Ttl come by to change your dressing tomorrow.” 

“Perfect III be waiting” 

Noella turned and strode back to her room. Upon entering, she was greeted by an unexpected sight–someone was on her bed!
