Chapter 1050: Chapter 1055: Can’t Hold Back

Some things should never be started because once they do, they become unstoppable.

The mission target has willingly come knocking, and apparently suffered quite a bit of grievance. Logically and emotionally, Yang Yi should now be rushing to Petra’s place.

But then again, that means he would have to leave a great beauty here.

Isn’t it said that being beautiful has its advantages? If she were ugly as sin, Yang Yi would have no hesitation in handling his so-called obligations. But Bonnie is also a beauty, a great one at that, so Yang Yi can’t bear to hurt her.

"I..."

Yang Yi glanced at Bonnie, then said to Petra in a deep voice, "I’m currently dealing with some matters outside. I’ll finish up as soon as possible and then come to see you. Please wait for a moment; I can’t talk freely right now."

"Okay, I’ll be waiting for you, I’ll keep waiting, no matter how late it is!"

Yang Yi hung up the call. Bonnie, with her head down, toyed with the food on her plate with a fork, and asked softly, "Was that Petra?"

"Yes."

"What does she want from you?"

"She wants me to go to her place, or for her to come to me."

Bonnie smiled faintly, lifted her head, and raising her glass to Yang Yi, she said, "Congratulations, you’ve succeeded."

Yang Yi didn’t raise his glass. He said to Bonnie seriously, "I’m thinking..."

"About what?"

"Just a moment."

Feeling overwhelmed, Yang Yi excused himself and immediately stood up to step outside the dining room, then took out his phone and called Anton.

Anton was at that moment tightening a thin wire, the eyes of the person he had caught were nearly bulging out, and the hands thrashed helplessly trying to grasp at something.

And right at that moment, Anton’s phone rang.

Frowning slightly, Anton said in a stern voice, "Excuse me, hold on a moment."

Anton freed one hand, taking both ends of the wire into the same hand, allowing the person who he’d nearly strangled to death fall freely to the ground. Then he picked up the phone and answered it in a heavy tone: "Why are you calling me at this time? Is there an emergency?"

"It’s urgent!"

"Oh, let’s hear it."

"I’m having dinner with Bonnie. Uh, I plan to make a good first impression on her. You know the situation at the time..."

"Get to the point, thanks."

"I’m having a candlelight dinner with Bonnie, it’s almost over, but..."

"Repeat, get to the point! Thanks!"

"That is the point. The candlelight dinner is almost over, then Petra called. She wants me to come see her, or she to find me. Oh shit! What should I do? Buddy, what should I do?"

Anton replied casually, "Are you trying to charm Bonnie? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so troubled."

"I don’t need you to tell me what I’m thinking. The problem is what should I do?"

"Do you like Bonnie?"

Yang Yi replied with frustration, "Buddy, can we stick to the point?"

Anton said calmly, "What do you plan to do? What’s your first instinct?"

"To send Bonnie home first, then go to Petra."

"Then you will forever lose Bonnie’s heart."

"What do I need her heart for?"

"You could unlock... forget it, this isn’t the right place for that. You’re asking what you need her heart for? Do I really need to tell you? She’s your bridge to the other side!"

"Alright, what about Petra?"

Anton chuckled, "Women, you can’t be too clingy with them. You can’t stick to her too tightly, and nor can you let her stick to you too tightly. Being too close will lose the mystery and novelty will fade quickly. You need to make her desire you yet unable to completely have you too soon. So put Petra aside for now, don’t mind her."

"Are you serious? But Petra seems to be so upset, her tone of voice was really abnormal."

Anton inhaled deeply and said, "That’s a bit tricky. It’s a good opportunity. You should meet her, comfort her. Especially early on in forming a close relationship, indeed you should be there when she needs you most, so you should see her."

"Well, what am I supposed to do? There’s still one by my side, which one do I let go?"

Anton took a deep breath, "You’ll have to take some measures, um, some tactful measures. For now, just deal with Bonnie, and I’ll help you resolve the crisis when I get there."

"You have an idea?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I trust you. I’m about to finish dinner. I will head back to the hotel afterward. How long will you need?"

"About two hours should suffice; that will be just about right. Oh, remember, don’t go back to the hotel where you’re staying. Book another room somewhere else. I’ll help you arrange and set it up. In any case, don’t go back to the original hotel; I will contact you once I am done here."

Yang Yi cleared his throat and asked, "Speaking of which, how’s the situation on your end?"

"Smooth sailing. Took care of one, and the other is about to give up some confessions. Now I can tell you they’re from the CIA, but not sent by Aaron. Isn’t that interesting?"

"What?"

"It’s a bit complicated, but overall quite simple to understand. We’ll discuss when we meet. I have to hang up."

The call ended, and the man Anton was stepping on regained some consciousness, beginning to struggle.

With perfect politeness, Anton said, "Sorry for the interruption by my idiot boss. You were about to be out of your misery, but now we have to do it all over again. I didn’t know he was calling for some trivial matter, thought something important had happened. Ah, no choice then."

"Cough, cough, cough... spare me, please!"

Anton coughed lightly and then took the wire in both hands and softly said, "Sorry, but I promise not to torture you."

Anton pulled the wire tight.

Yang Yi returned to the restaurant.

"Sorry, they were interrogating someone who was listening in on you. Just got the results, so I had to find out what was happening."

Bonnie smiled and said, "You don’t have to tell me all this. Are you about to leave? Then let’s settle the bill."

Yang Yi waved his hands, "No, no, no. The issue is well-handled; there’s nothing I need to deal with anymore."

Bonnie said faintly, "As a man, shouldn’t you take this chance to leave and see Petra? That way, you won’t hurt my pride, and you won’t delay your business."

The truth?

Only a fool tells the truth at this time.

Frowning, Yang Yi said, "What are you talking about? At this time, of course I’m going nowhere, doing nothing. Bonnie, although our relationship is somewhat special, it does not stop me from liking you, because you truly are a charismatic woman. Regardless of what happens in the future, right now, I’m willing to put everything aside and just want to enjoy some wonderful time with you. Whether you believe it or not, but I am serious."
