At the Luminary Arts Centre, Trudy was giving Honora a tour, explaining the business.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFor this month, your task is to recruit two new girls. They need to be young and beautiful, preferably from outside Regal City. Focus on finding girls from small towns; they\u2019re easier to\u00a0<\/p>\n
mold.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGirls from those places are usually naive. A taste of the high life is enough to make them lose their bearings, which makes them easy to recruit.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cUnderstood, Trudy,\u201d Honora replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Lincoln entrusted you to me, which means he has high expectations. Don\u2019t disappoint him,\u201d Trudy added.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The thought of getting her revenge on Larissa fueled Honora\u2019s determination. \u201cI won\u2019t!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, a trainer hurried over on her high heels and whispered in Trudy\u2019s ear, \u201cTrudy, the girl you were most invested in slipped away when no one was looking.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trudy\u2019s face darkened, her eyes flashing with murderous intent. \u201cHonora, you get to work on what I told you. I have something to take care of.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Without waiting for a reply, she followed the trainer out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the garage, Trudy got into her car and lit a cigarette. \u201cThat little bitch. I fed her, clothed her, and spent a fortune turning her into a woman men would kill for, and she dares to run away\u00a0<\/p>\n
from me!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we catch her, drug her and let the men have her!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cUnderstood.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The car quickly caught up to the runaway woman, who had fled into a dilapidated old neighborhood.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trudy stormed out of the car, threw her cigarette to the ground, and slapped the woman across her beautiful face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou bitch! Did you really think you could escape? Do you have any idea who you are? Serving those powerful men is a blessing for someone like you!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The woman fell but showed no fear. She looked up and laughed manically. \u201cA blessing? Why don\u2019t you take it for yourself then?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trudy grabbed the woman by her hair. \u201cYou dare talk back to me? If I hadn\u2019t invested so much money in you, I\u2019d kill you right here and now!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a car screeched to a halt beside them. A stern\u2013faced man got out of a Mercedes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 575\u00a0<\/p>\n
The woman, still in Trudy\u2019s grasp, smiled. \u201cYou\u2019ve ruined so many innocent girls, you venomous witch. Your time is up!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trudy frowned and turned to face the man, unafraid. \u201cSo you ran out here on purpose, waiting. for this man to save you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She shoved the woman against a wall and faced him directly. \u201cDo you have any idea who I am and who I work for?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Crispin didn\u2019t answer. He signaled for his two bodyguards to handle Trudy\u2019s thugs while he advanced.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Trudy was a trained fighter and could handle most men. Seeing he wasn\u2019t backing down, she lunged at him. But with a single move, he caught her fist and snapped it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAh!\u201d Trudy screamed as a punch landed on her face, knocking out her two gold teeth and filling her mouth with blood.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTake these three away,\u201d Crispin ordered, then looked at the escaped woman. \u201cCome with me. I\u2019ll arrange for you to be sent home.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The woman shook her head. \u201cI don\u2019t have a home\u2026 I ran away from home, which is how this vile woman tricked me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Crispin was silent for a moment. \u201cI\u2019ll arrange a job for you, but you can\u2019t stay in Regal City. It\u2019s not safe for\u00a0<\/p>\n
you here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The woman nodded gratefully. \u201cOkay. Thank you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After work, Larissa sat at her desk, carefully organized Rigby\u2019s file, and put it in her bag.\u00a0<\/p>\n
