Hundred Herbs would never pick up an unfamiliar call. Lauren could not get through, so she was a little frustrated. She was a known female assassin, but after her rebirth, her status had dropped by many levels.

Her biological father was unknown, her mother did not love her, and she was even treated as a free blood bag. She even had to marry someone on behalf of someone else. In the Xiao family, she also did not receive the status and respect she deserved!

Lauren suppressed her emotions and sent a message to Hundred Herbs first.

[I’m Lauren.]

A moment later, her phone rang.

“You’re not dead?” Hundred Herbs’ excited and trembling voice came from the phone.

The news of Lauren’s accidental death after the explosion of the cruise ship had spread throughout the industry. Her old subordinates had held a funeral for her, and the organization had forever sealed her code name.

Other than that man who wanted to see either her person or her corpse, only Hundred Herbs and Tom did not believe that she was dead.

“I’m dead, but I’m alive again,” Lauren said briefly.

“Who saved you?” Hundred Herbs was confused, but more than that, she was happy.

Her voice was different from before, but she could tell from the tone of her voice that it was Lauren.

“No one saved me. I became someone else, also called Lauren. I’m now in C City of Z country. Tom has come to look for me. There’s someone I want you to help me save.”

Lauren said it lightly, but Hundred Herbs heard it as if it was a shock wave.

Although she was a doctor and had experienced many life-and-death situations with her seriously ill patients, she had only heard of being reborn. She did not dare to think that such a thing which would only appear in novels and television shows had really came true.

“Okay.” Hundred Herbs did not ask in detail, and Lauren did not say anything else.

They have a tacit understanding with each other.

After hanging up the phone, Lauren went to the address that Tom had sent her.

However, just as she entered the room, Lauren heard a click. She did not even have the time to greet Tom. She turned to look and saw that the door had been opened from the outside.

Xiao Mu appeared in front of her, clapping his hands.

He gave a mocking smile. “Sister-in-law, it’s said that the fertile waters should not flow to others’ fields. I’ve already told you so directly, but you don’t want me, and you actually came to find someone else. It really makes me sad!”

A fierce glint flashed across Lauren’s eyes.

She had restrained herself to a great extent in the Xiao family and had already warned Xiao Mu. Since he did not listen to her advice, she could not be blamed.

Lauren rushed forward and grabbed Xiao Mu’s neck as fast as lightning, lifting him up easily. “You’re courting death!”

Xiao Mu did not expect Lauren’s temper to be so explosive. He also did not expect her to have such shockingly explosive strength. She could actually lift him up so easily!

However, before he could say anything, Lauren threw him onto the ground. After a few punches and kicks, Xiao Mu could only feel himself lying on the ground and could not move.

In fact, the pain spread intensely.

Throughout the entire process, Lauren grabbed his neck, and he could not even make a sound.

After the beating, Lauren was very satisfied.

Xiao Mu was already numb from the pain at this point and could not make a sound. However, his brows were deeply furrowed, and his face was full of pain.

“You always harbor ill intentions towards me. Your mouth is filthy and so are your hands! All because you think that your big brother is only a cripple? Then I’ll let you experience it!”

With a crack, Lauren broke Xiao Mu’s kneecap.

She grabbed Xiao Mu’s throat again, was about to hit him again, but she held back.

She turned to look at Tom behind her. “Do you have any medicine?”

“I have.”

Tom came back to his senses and replied to Lauren.

From the moment Lauren entered the room, he saw her as a stranger, however, there was a sense of familiarity in her eyes.

Once he saw how Lauren attacked the man in front of him and how ruthless she was, Tom could confirm that this was his boss, Lauren, the top-notch Assassin K!

Only she had such fast, accurate, and ruthless movements.

Tom handed the small bottle of medicine that he had brought with him to Lauren. Lauren sprayed it into Xiao Mu’s eyes and into his mouth twice quickly

“Let this be a lesson for you. Remember to avoid me in the future. If you dare to provoke me again, I’ll kill you!”

This was a medicine that she had developed. It could make people temporarily blind and lose their speech.

Xiao Mu was unwilling, but he did not even have the ability to resist the entire process.

Lauren went to look for a bellhop, gave him some money, and sent Xiao Mu back to the Xiao family. Then, she returned to the room that Tom had reserved.

“Boss, I knew you couldn’t be dead…”

A seven-foot-tall man actually had tears welling up in his eyes. Lauren detested that. “I’m not dead. Even if I am dead, is there any use crying?”

“Boss, your assets have been taken back by the organization.”

“…”

She had put so much trust in the organization in vain. In the end, the organization was so deceitful!

“I saw Joss appear in C City.”

“A few days ago, Joss announced that he would be on leave for a period of time. He said that he was going to get married.. Boss, did he come to C City?”
