Chapter 221

Harvey's mocking expression froze on his face.At that moment, Elara had just stepped out of the shower. Her hair was still damp, clinging to her shoulders and neck.The wet strands stuck to her slender collarbone, and the fabric of her clothes darkened where the moisture had seeped through. Her fair skin carried a delicate flush, still warm from the bath.Harvey's gaze lingered on her for a moment. His Adam's apple bobbed, and his breathing tightened involuntarily. The two officers exchanged knowing looks as their gazes shifted toward Harvey.Harvey let out a short, bitter laugh. "Elara, are you doing this on purpose? You think this is the same as me and Niamh?""Mr. Fisher," one of the officers interrupted, "Let go of the collar first. Right now, you're trespassing and causing a disturbance."Elara lowered the mop, and Harvey finally released his grip on Lesley's shirt. She immediately pulled Lesley behind her, shielding her protectively.Lesley's face had gone pale. The momen

Harvey was determined to get Elara's signed statement of leniency. But she simply smiled and asked, "Do you really think I'd ever agree to something like that?"Harvey's patience grew thin. "I'm giving you one chance to name your price."He then handed her a blank check.Elara took it as the corners of her lips curved up. "Pass me a pen."If money came knocking on her door, why not take it? Harvey glanced at his lawyer, who immediately handed her a pen.Without hesitation, Elara wrote down a number. She then handed the check back to Harvey. "Sign it first."Harvey's breath hitched the moment he saw the amount."100 million dollars?" His dark eyes were heavy with disbelief, like ink too thick to dissolve.A scornful laugh escaped him. "This is extortion!"Elara immediately turned to the police officers. "You officers saw that, didn't you? Harvey handed me a blank check and asked me to fill it in. Now that I have, he's accusing me of extortion. Isn't this entrapment?"Both offi

Elara pressed the stopwatch on her phone and held up the screen for Harvey to see. The ticking numbers on the timer flashed like bullets, each one piercing through his chest.Once upon a time, this was exactly how he had treated Elara. And now, the once-arrogant and untouchable CEO of Fisher Corp was the one strapped to a ticking time bomb.One of the officers nodded approvingly. "Ms. Jones has made a very reasonable suggestion. Mr. Fisher, please convince Niamh to record an apology video. If she can actually collect 999 likes on her post, it will help us close the case."For the first time in his life, Harvey felt as if he were being burned alive over an open flame. The feeling was unbearably stifling.His expression darkened, but he had no choice under the relentless countdown on Elara's screen. He unwillingly pulled out his phone and dialed the number.Never in his wildest dreams had he thought there would come a day when he would be forced into a corner by Elara Jones. And yet

If Harvey had been face-to-face with Niamh at that moment, he would have noticed something was off about her emotions."Mr. Fisher, I've prepared the apology script." The lawyer's voice came through the phone.Harvey glanced at the timer on Elara's phone before giving his next order. "Set up the camera and record her reading the apology."The lawyer positioned a tripod, mounted the phone, and placed the script next to it so Niamh could read it directly while looking into the camera.Niamh nearly bit through her tongue. Elara was pushing her too far!But then, a thought struck her. Once she competed in the International Racing Championship exhibition race, she would become the woman who fulfilled Dawn's last wish in Harvey's eyes. From that moment on, she would be the most irreplaceable woman by his side!As long as she could race, whatever reputation she lost now would be meaningless. The men who had once called her their "brother" would all come crawling back.The metallic tast

After the lawyer posted the video, he let out a sigh of relief. "Mr. Fisher, I've uploaded Niamh's apology video."He refreshed Niamh's social feed and immediately saw that Harvey was the first to like the post. Harvey turned his phone screen toward Elara, showing her Niamh's post.Without waiting for him to speak, Elara exited the stopwatch app on her phone. She didn't need any further prompting, and she signed her name on the statement of leniency.Handing the document over to the police, she smiled at Harvey and said, "Let's hope she collects 999 likes soon."Harvey was about to say something, but Elara spoke again. "I'm still looking forward to seeing Niamh take the stage at the exhibition race with Vincent and the team. The real show—where you and Niamh will lose all credibility—has yet to begin."He looked down at her with eyes filled with contempt as he scoffed. "So, you know Vincent."His gaze shifted to Lesley, radiating hostility. There was no way Elara could understand
