Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 1153

In an open and honest chat between two friends, Mia gets straight to the point, "What was up with that assassin yesterday?"

The woman shakes her head, "I have no idea. Patrick wouldn't let me go see. Said it was too risky and I could get hurt."

Mia is skeptical, having done her homework afterward. "Why didn't you check it out yourself? In the West, they say when it comes to being bold and bossy, you're second to none, Ms. Aimee."

Aimee retorts with a grin, "Yeah, I might be bold, but I'm not exactly brave. What if I went there and they figured out I can't defend myself? They could easily take me hostage. I can't fight them off." Then, she remembers a girl's quick action from the previous day and looks impressed, "Could you take them on? You must be an archery athlete with that precise shot you made."

Mia modestly denies, "Thanks for the compliment, but I'm just a regular grad student, cramming for my WWII history exam."

She’s still mulling over how to get closer to the Hernandez family to confirm if the person really is from The Silent Ring. She'd gone through a lot yesterday for some unverified info, and today, she was determined to prove her instincts right to her husband.

Aimee, on the other hand, is also pondering how to get in.

Suddenly, they lock eyes, and it's like a light bulb goes off in both their heads.

The person is with the Hernandez family. Aimee can't go alone because she lacks self-defense skills. Mia can go but can't get into the Hernandez estate.

What a dream team they are!

The two women make a breakthrough in their secretive plans, just as the men wrap up their discussion at the hotel.

"The Western expansion will see the Cedillo Group lead the Hernandez family into the action. The Hernandez Group's new energy project will partner with the Cedillo family."

Patrick's goal was to take the Hernandez Group beyond local borders, heading West and then onto the global stage, just like Andre did back in the day. Now, Andre was all about gaining a technological edge in the market.
