Hearing that, Anya reached for the tea at the side. She seemed embarrassed and shy about it. "Really?" "Yes. Tell me, what's up?" Yuna placed the teaspoon down. Her elbows rested on either side of the table as she watched Anya with curiosity. Anya bit her lips. She didn't know where to start. "Feel free to organize your thoughts first. You can tell me after that. I'll wait for you." "It's …" When Anya was about to tell her, she became shy again. Covering her face, she couldn't speak a word. Yuna could almost guess what was going on when she saw the look on Anya's face. Astonished, she asked, "Anya, have you confessed to Mark already?" Anya looked at her in shock. "Is it that obvious?" Yuna covered her mouth. "So, did you succeed?" Anya's shoulders slumped. "What if I tell you that I haven't?" "What? Did he reject-" "I said it out loud. But Mark didn't hear me. When I was about to repeat it again, I realized that I didn't have the guts to say it anymore." Anya's
Elizabeth spoke with a calm tone, "You can choose not to come over. I'll follow you to your house instead. "I know you have bodyguards at your door. But I have those too. I can bring a hundred or two hundred men over. Do you think I still wouldn't be able to enter your house? "Even if you call Carl and the others by then, do you think they'd have time to come over and save you? "Surra, I just want to have a chat with you properly. We don't have to make things ugly." Yuna furrowed her brow. Elizabeth was clearly threatening her. But she could feel that her tone was much different from before. "I've said what I needed to say," Yuna said. "Do you think there's still any reason for us to talk about things now?"She continued coldly, "Or did you think I would give in if you threatened me with such words?" "I'm not going to talk to you about how they came to see you. I want to talk about my own matters," Elizabeth said, "If you don't want to see me today, I'll appear everywhere
Looking at how Elizabeth wished she could get rid of her, Yuna frowned a little. Calmly, she said, "So what do you want to tell me?" Elizabeth pulled a black card out of her bag. She pushed it toward Yuna. "This is a card with unlimited credit." She took an agreement out after that. "I've stated in the agreement that the limit of this card would never be adjusted nor canceled. You'll have lifetime access to the card with an unlimited spending limit." Elizabeth stared at Yuna with a serious look. She said distantly, "This would be yours as long as you leave Phoenix City and Carl. "I can even make arrangements for you to live anywhere in this world. I'll make sure you and your children will live a good life. How about that?" Yuna then realized what she wanted. Elizabeth just wanted her to leave Phoenix City. Leaning against the chair, she glanced at Elizabeth expressionlessly. "You know that I don't need more money." "Yeah, I know you don't. But the only thing I have is m
"Elizabeth, you'll regret the decision you made today." "I won't regret this! I'll only regret it if I let you go today!" Baring her teeth, Elizabeth said, "Surra, you brought this upon yourself, you got that? Don't blame me for this when you're dead!" After that, Elizabeth lunged forward and aimed the dagger at Yuna's chest. At the same time, Yuna threw the coffee cup toward Elizabeth immediately. In an instant, the coffee splashed all over Elizabeth and even onto her face. She instinctively closed her eyes. Yuna seized the chance to grab Elizabeth's wrist and quickly snatched the dagger away from her. It happened so fast that Elizabeth could only react after her dagger was stolen from her. She staggered backward and nearly fell. Her eyes widened when she saw Yuna holding her dagger, and she gritted her teeth in fury. "Why do you have to do this, Elizabeth?" "I will kill you, Surra! Ahh!" Elizabeth went crazy as she grabbed everything from the table and threw it to
Yuna scrunched her eyebrows. She didn't even panic when dealing with Elizabeth's madness. Gianna then dashed in. "Ms. Feron, I'll handle her," Gianna said and quickly grabbed Elizabeth's arms. Yuna then moved away from the top of Elizabeth. Elizabeth wanted to break free, but Gianna already lifted her up. Afterward, Gianna pressed her against the table. Grabbing the tablecloth, Gianna used it to tie Elizabeth's hands behind her. She finished her job quickly and neatly. "Let me go! How dare you do this to me, Surra? Aren't you afraid of the consequences?" "Don't you know what will happen to you if you're trying to kill me here then?" Yuna retorted. "I'll certainly get rid of you!" "Think for yourself first." Yuna wasn't angry at Elizabeth's curses. In fact, she was calm. She then decided to call the police, saying that someone was trying to kill her. She also gave them the restaurant's address. Hearing that she actually made a police retort, Elizabeth became more
"I've made myself clear to you. Since you don't want to be a sister or friend, I don't see a reason for us to be associated," Carl said coldly. "You could've chosen any other woman out there. Why does it have to be Surra?" "Even if it's not Surra, you wouldn't be that woman for me, either." His words were like daggers shooting through Elizabeth's heart. At this moment, it was as if she finally understood what Carl wanted. "You'll regret this!" she screamed. Carl didn't want to talk to her about this anymore. After all, he had repeated the same words to her every time, but Elizabeth never listened. "Bring her away. I'll talk to the Wycliffe family about it," Carl told the police. Upon hearing that, the police had no choice but to take Elizabeth with them. Carl looked away and stared at Yuna. "Let's go." "Sorry for making you come here and deal with this." "I was the reason this happened. Who else could you seek help from if not me?" Yuna smiled a little. As she wa
Elizabeth sat on the chair. Wiping her tears, she gritted her teeth. She said, "What's the point of repairing the relationship? Carl is definitely going to cut ties with our family because of that slut." Luther sighed and sat in front of her. "Even if that's the case, it's impossible that Carl would ignore the long-standing friendship between our families. "Do you think it's up to him to cut ties with us? Do you know how many collaboration projects we have with his family?" Elizabeth became quiet after hearing that. Luther continued, "Instead of doing this and losing Carl's attention, why don't you come up with another solution? "For example, you can start working in the company and interact with Carl through business collaborations. Don't you think you'll have a chance to improve your relationship with him by then?" Elizabeth's eyes lit up instantly. "Luther, are you saying that …" "Don't you understand what I mean?" Elizabeth was overjoyed. "Luther, bring me out of
After switching off his laptop, Nathaniel frowned. He texted Mina to ask what happened. He became upset after knowing how everything happened. He always knew that Elizabeth was horrible toward Yuna because of Carl. Someone even came to harass them last night. Nathaniel decided to give the Wycliffe family a lesson. Then, he turned on his laptop again to hack into the Wycliffe Corp's system. He was able to disrupt all of their project plans. Aside from that, he stole 500 million dollars from their company funds. After handling everything with ease, Nathaniel was satisfied as he turned off his laptop. He then used his phone to donate the 500 million dollars to the poor kids living in the slum. At the same time, the whole Wycliffe Corp was in chaos after their system was hacked. Hundreds of their project plans were disrupted. They had even lost 500 million dollars. Their tech team tried to rescue everything but realized that the hacker had planted some viruses in their syst
