Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight novel Chapter 496

Chapter 496 The Truth About Avery

Because of direct orders from above, the Gray Wolf mercenaries didn’t use their enhanced wolf abilities when dealing with Ms. Tessa, which meant the fight had been pure hand–to–hand combat.

But even with basic moves exchanged, they could tell immediately–they were no match for her.

Still…

“We really don’t know what you’re talking about! Avery? I swear, I don’t know anyone by that name!”

Ms. Tessa frowned. “You sure about that?” It was the last chance she was giving.

“I swear, I don’t know!”

She stepped forward and seized the man’s wrist. With a quick twist, pain shot through him, and he bared his teeth in a grimace.

Cold sweat broke out across his forehead.

“Please, have mercy!”

“We really don’t know Avery. We’re just grunts,” another one blurted out. They were outer–circle mercenaries–too low–ranking to be trusted with any real information. All they knew was that their orders were to block the girl.

Who would’ve thought the sweet–looking girl was this terrifying?

Seeing they genuinely had no clue, Ms. Tessa released his wrist.

“For your sake, I hope you told me the truth. If I find out you lied… I won’t let it slide.”

She looked like a perfectly pretty young woman, but her words sent a chill down their spines.

Without sparing another glance at the group crumpled on the ground, she turned and got into the car.

Just as she started it up, her phone rang. Stephen.

“Tessa, are you alright? Where are you now?” he asked, clearly anxious.

“I’m fine. I’m keeping your car for now–I’ll return it tomorrow,” she replied, shifting into drive.

Something was definitely off.

What exactly was Avery’s connection to the Gray Wolf Mercenaries?

Now that she finally had a lead, there was no way she was letting it go.

“The car doesn’t matter. Keep it if you need it,” Stephen said. He just wanted to be sure she was okay.

“Okay. I’m hanging up now.”

Before he could say anything more, she ended the call and immediately dialed Avery.

As expected, his phone was off.

Chapter 496 The Truth About Avery

She tried again and again–but every call went straight to voicemail.

Without wasting another second, she drove straight to the headquarters of Wings of Light, Shen Die hadn’t seen her in a while and was thrilled by her sudden visit.

“Wow, what a surprise! Missing me already?” Shen Die teased, grinning like an idiot.

“Cut it out. I’m here to check something.”

“Aww. And here I thought you finally remembered poor little me. I’ve been keeping an eye on Wings of Light for you and you couldn’t even drop by once!”

“I’m here now, aren’t I? Consider this me checking in.”

Wings of Light was doing perfectly fine–she had no reason to visit unless something serious came up.

“Oh, so I’m just an afterthought now? You’re breaking my heart,” Shen Die said dramatically.
