CHAPTER 548
Chapter 548 The Trap Is Set
What happened next was natural. Everything went on within their expectations.
“Where did you get that ‘scripture’?” It was Simon who put it in. Silvia did not see the contents, but
she knew that it was fake.
“Such a thing is easily found anywhere on the internet. It’s not difficult to find an unpopular martial
arts book and make it old.” Simon said it easily, and it was easy to do it. He just put it in the
strongbox without spraying poison powder on it or something. In Silvia’s opinion, it was unnecessary to make it so complicated since it was for Bridger as planned.
“Then why did you do that?” Silvia pursed her lips and gestured to the arrow on the wall. “In case you missed, or he couldn’t dodge in time, Bridger would die here. Didn’t you have a concern about
it?” Silvia asked with a smile.
Imagining the scene, if Silvia pushed open the door and saw Bridger lying on the floor in the
bedroom, or the floor covered with blood, Silvia couldn’t help but click her tongue.
Simon smiled meaningfully, then got up and walked to the wall. He pinched the arrow with his
thumb and forefinger and pulled it out.
Simon looked relaxed. He walked back and stretched his hand in front of Silvia. Silvia did not see
clearly that there was no arrowhead.
As for the so-called “arrow”, the front part was a magnet, and its magnetism should be relatively
strong, so when Simon “pulled” it out just now, it seemed to have taken a little effort.
“Ah? If it hit him, wouldn’t it reveal the secret?” After playing with it for a while, Silvia thought that
this little thing was quite interesting. It looked like a real one. If Simon had not shown her that there.
was no arrowhead, she would not have noticed it.
Simon shook his head. “Bridger is suspicious, and he thinks himself smart. If the trap were set too
simply, he would suspect. If it were set too complicated, with his IQ, he could not break it.
“When I was in the office, I deliberately let him see the password of the strongbox. I was on guard
against him stealing confidential information of the company, but I didn’t expect that it could be
used here.” All content is property © .
Silvia did not expect Simon to have such a long-term plan. He had made preparations earlier. Bridger was not his match at all. Silvia was a little curious. “What if he did not remember the
password, or he did not see it clearly last time and could not open the strongbox? Wouldn’t it be a
waste of your ‘painstaking’?”
“If he did not succeed this time, he would do it a second time.” After a pause, Simon said faintly,
Get Borko
“However, the original target was not him. Even if he failed, it would be fine as long as Paisley
succeeded.”
Silvia thought, that’s right. As long as Paisley succeeded, it would be fine.
The smile on Silvia’s face disappeared. When she thought of Paisley, she would always feel a chill
on her back. This was a feeling she had never had before.
Silvia had never seen such a paranoid person like Paisley, who was obsessed with martial arts to this extent. Silvia was obsessed with perfuming, but she would never do anything by any kind of
means for a certain perfume.
“Aren’t you afraid that she will find out that the one on her hand is fake?” Silvia asked.
“I’m not afraid.” Shaking his head, Simon was quite sure. “She has never seen the real one, So how
can she distinguish whether it is real or fake?”
Simon prepared two books. One was a fake that was simply pieced together. If Bridger stole it, he
would be able to see through it at a glance. The other one was placed in the study room and made
a simple disguise. Simon knew that with Paisley’s style of doing things, she would come to take it
in person.
“There was no so-called ‘scripture’ at all. I told them the truth, but they didn’t believe it. They would
rather believe in the fabricated legend. In that case, I just made up one for them to fulfill their
wishes.”
Silvia frowned and pondered for a while. Then she asked, “What about the martial arts in the
book?”
“I just made a few changes to some of the moves I learned before. I added some cultivation
content to it. If she can comprehend them, it will be beneficial to her cultivation. If she forcibly.
practices them, it will only hurt her body.
Simon did not want to harm anyone, but if Paisley did not get a “scripture” as she thought, this
matter would not end. The martial arts in the book were contrary to the methods she practiced. If
she noticed that something was wrong and stopped, it would not hurt her much. But if she forcibly
continued practicing, it would destroy all the martial arts she had.
Paisley wouldn’t pose much of a threat by then.
“I hope that she can stop in time.” With a sigh, Silvia leaned back and was about to lie down.
“Hold on!” Simon stopped Silvia and then pointed behind her, “I will have someone clean up this bedroom. We don’t sleep here today. Let’s go to another room.”
Silvia looked around and felt that the room was indeed a little messy. She nodded and got up to
follow Simon out.
When Paisley woke up in the morning, she smelled a fragrant scent, which was very special. It
made her feel hungry.
After washing up, she went downstairs and saw a bowl of soup, a plate of green salad, and a portion of omelet on the dining table.
“Today’s breakfast is good,” Paisley praised and sat down to start eating.
The servant was about to say something, but she didn’t. Paisley glanced at the servant and asked,
“What’s the matter?”
“Ms. Drew, it seems like a thief has entered our house.” Although the servant was hesitating, she could not help but say it. The matter of a thief entering the house could be big or small, so she had
to report it.
Paisley’s hand that was holding the fork paused. She turned to look at the servant.
“Oh? Is there anything missing?” Paisley ate casually. She had an idea of what happened.
“Nothing is missing, but sometimes there are extra cooked dishes in the kitchen. The chef said. that he didn’t cook them. At first, I thought that the chef had a bad memory and made a mistake.
But it seems not right these two days.
“Ms. Drew, do you want to check? Oh right, I’ve checked all the dishes that were prepared. They are
not poisonous.
Paisley nodded and said, “Got it. Tell the chef not to come again from now on.”
“Ms. Drew?” The servant was very surprised. “Did he do anything wrong? Although the chef neglected of duty in keeping an eye on the ingredients, what is the more worrying thing is who
sneaked into the kitchen. I…”
“I know who it is.” Paisley interrupted the servant. After eating the soup, she continued, “Since she
likes to work as a chef so much, let her do it.”
When Paisley said this, she glanced in the direction of the basement.
The servant suddenly understood. “You mean…”
“From now on, keep this house safe. Without my order, no one outside is allowed to enter. Also, tell those gardeners and the like to stay away from this house,” Paisley said.
“Yes, Ms. Drew. Other than the bodyguards, no one else is allowed to approach the house. The servant came with Paisley from the island, so she understood this rule.
But Paisley said, “No, including the bodyguards! They should also stay away from this house. No
one is allowed to get close to this house!”
