Lydia appeared stunned, and Sarah's expression changed subtly.Sarah struggled to keep her cool and responded calmly, "Are you kidding me?""No. He'll be here soon," Henry spoke calmly, glancing at his phone.It turned out that he had just received the unaltered photo from Alex, who also informed him that they had located the person who had fabricated the photo.He had worked tirelessly to expedite the investigation. He could not afford to give anything less than his all because Henry was involved. He even notified Jensen and deployed all available resources.They questioned the shop owner and looked into any unusual occurrences in the shop during those days. They quickly tracked down Gerard Mueller, the person who provided the photos. When they found him, they discovered the previous images and Joe Avery, the person in charge of the entire affair.When they found Joe, they quickly forced him to admit that a woman had told him to do everything."What's going on, Henry?" Lydia as

"Okay, Joe, one last question. Do you know who commissioned you to do all of this? Henry asked.Joe nodded and said, "At first, I was unsure because the woman who negotiated with me always wore a mask and sunglasses. She paid half the payment upfront, so I didn't bother asking for her ID.""But now you're sure?" Henry asked."Yes, I'm sure!" Joe responded firmly."Who was it?" Henry asked."It was her!" Joe pointed at Sarah."Even though I couldn't see her face clearly then, her body shape, voice, and overall appearance were distinct. There's no mistake about that."Lydia's expression shifted dramatically as she heard Joe's words.She could not believe Sarah would betray her. Although it appeared impossible, compelling evidence pointed toward her.Sarah became flustered and exclaimed, "Nonsense! You've never seen her face. How can you accuse me? I did nothing like that.""That's right! You're just making baseless accusations." Lydia joined in."Baseless accusations?" Henry r

Henry shook his head and sighed. "Do you hear that, Sarah? See how Lydia treats you. Is it worth betraying her like this?"Sarah's belief that Henry lacked evidence grew stronger as she listened to him. If Henry had it, she believed he would have revealed it by then.No one would be so kind as to let her off the hook. Henry must have run out of ideas and was playing with her emotions.Sarah looked pitiful and said, "I know I've done many wrong things in the past and offended you. But you can't accuse me like this."She feared Henry's power, but after spending time with him, she realized he was not cruel. Henry would not harm her, especially since Lydia was protecting her.Lydia felt uncomfortable, as if she was causing her best friend to suffer.However, Henry remained calm and said, "Alright, it appears you will not admit it until you're in deep water. Play the recording, Joe."Since Henry did not arrange for Joe to be there, it was highly possible that Joe did have a recording

Sarah's voice rose. "Don't you realize what kind of person Henry is? Do you see a future with him?""I didn't say I want to be with him," Lydia retorted."But you've already begun to like him. I will never let my best friend, the person I care about the most, fall for someone like him—a powerless nobody. Even if it means I have to make a huge mistake."I understand this might not be right. But if the opportunity presents itself again, I'll do the same because he's unworthy of you! You two don't belong to the same world. Being with him will only cause you pain and despair in your parents and lead the Millers to a hopeless future."Sarah's voice grew louder and more passionate with each word, and she began to believe that she was doing it for Lydia's benefit.Lydia's face paled. She could not deny that Sarah's words resonated with her. She noticed Henry had left a mark on her heart at some point. Lydia's every mention of them not being from the same world was an attempt to convince

Henry felt helpless; he assumed dealing with a young girl would be simple.It began smoothly and revealed the truth quickly. However, he never expected Sarah to turn the tide. Despite her disagreement with Lydia, she walked away unscathed.Lydia slumped onto the sofa, lost in thought, as Sarah left.Henry dismissed Alex and the others once everything was in order. He could not be bothered to pursue the issue with Joe further.Alex left, and he followed Sarah for a while. When she called a cab at the door, he dashed over. Sarah was nervous when she saw him. She asked, "What do you want?""Mr. Truman promised not to touch you, but I didn't." Alex gave a menacing look and sneered."How dare you! I will call Lydia now," Sarah said, pulling out her phone.However, before she could do anything, Alex grabbed her phone and slapped her, angrily cursing, "You little scum! How dare you trick me? I'm going to kill you!"Sarah whimpered in pain, her face filled with fear. She stepped back,

"Alright." Henry nodded."I've misunderstood you again. Do you think I'm foolish and easily deceived?" Lydia asked."No, of course not. You're just overly concerned and have complete trust in Sarah."You'd surely spot the flaw immediately if it were anyone else." Henry found it difficult to believe himself."Really? You don't think I am stupid? Sometimes, I feel like I'm stupid!" Lydia said, frustrated."Why would you? You're the most intelligent woman in the world. Otherwise, how would you secure the position of CEO?" Henry showered her with compliments, almost forcing himself to shake his head."Secure the CEO position? I wish I could do that!"If it weren't for joining the Everising Chamber of Commerce and securing the cooperation with Fyman, someone would've removed me long ago." Lydia smiled bitterly."Oh?" Henry frowned."Isn't your family the largest shareholder in the Miller Group? Who dares to oppose you?""Yes, our family holds 70 percent of the shares, but 30 perce

"You?" Lydia shook her head."Forget about it. Even though our company is not one of those mega-corporations, we still need relevant certifications and experience.""Didn't you say you want me to join the company?""I was thinking about hiring you as a security guard at the company, which doesn't require much of a certification. But you can't handle anything in that position, right?"Henry sighed helplessly. "Am I only fit to be a security guard?""It's not just that!""What else then?""A janitor.""I would rather be a security guard." Henry was speechless. Although he had not attended college, he had numerous certificates."Do you really want to work at my company?" Lydia asked."Yeah!""As a security guard?""I will do whatever you ask. Anyway, these things don't really matter. My main goal is to help you stabilize, no, control the company."Henry shrugged."You're good at making empty promises. Okay, let me think about it and see what I can arrange for you."Lydia wa

When Lydia hung up the phone, Henry sighed helplessly."Cousin?""How else to explain it? We're getting a divorce soon. It's not good for either of us to have our relationship exposed right now," Lydia responded.Henry said, "I don't mind.""I do. Go back and rest well. Prepare for work tomorrow," Lydia said."Alright!"Henry stood up helplessly and left. As he approached the door, he ran into Jennifer and William, who had just returned. They looked at each other in shock.Jennifer was furious when she snapped back to her senses. "Henry, you bastard jinx! What did you do to my son, and how dare you come to our house?"Henry shrugged helplessly and slipped away from the side, finding it nearly impossible to communicate with someone like Jennifer.Jennifer was furious. She wanted to step forward and grab Henry, but she failed to do that.Jennifer lashed out at Lydia for failing to hold Henry.Lydia was incredibly frustrated, but she had no choice. In the end, all she could do
