“You!” Linda’s chest heaved violently.

With a faint trace of a smile, Elisa continued, “He also singled me out, giving you guys a hard time. No matter who it

was, they both chose me. If I worked with one of them, the other would be offended. Under such difficult

circumstances, you guys thought of another idea, didn’t you?”

Linda clenched her fists tightly with the urge to scream loudly, ‘Stop speaking!’

Rachel gritted her teeth upon hearing the story. What a story! If they hadn’t taken such advantage of Elisa, she

wouldn’t be in such a tragic situation now. I feel so sorry seeing how she has endured the pain lately.

Rachel held Elisa’s hand quietly with pain in her eyes.

Elisa smiled at Linda again. “You guys came up with such a ruthless plan in the end, but I bet it’s out of your

expectations that I would only break a rib. However, Gareth was so worried about me dying. He loves my proposal.

He will lose an important business partner and suffer massive losses if I’m not around. Look at how he stayed with

me when I was hospitalized! He even visited me regularly. If I didn’t treat him coldly, he would probably visit me

every day. Weren’t you the one who caused all this to happen? Sometimes I wonder if I misunderstood your

intentions; you kept saying that you are trying to bring us together. Now, it really seems the case.”

“Hey!”

Linda was enraged.

However, Elisa could not help chuckling gently. “Unfortunately, I don’t like Gareth, or we would have gotten back

together. Linda, if you continue to make us see each other regularly, aren’t you worried about me falling for him

again? After all, he seems to value profit and thinks I’m valuable to him. A marriage of convenience often works to

make more money, and I can do that for him.”

“Shameless b*tch!” Linda swore.

Rachel guffawed loudly upon hearing that. “Hah! Apart from those words, do you have other insults? Since you

merely put on an elegant facade, you probably know more swear words than that. I can’t believe you keep

repeating the same few words. Should I teach you how to swear, Ms. Benett? Back in school, I learned a lot of cuss

words. Perhaps I can use them on you.”

“Shut up! Shut your mouth up, Rachel! Don’t force me to hit you!”

“Do it! Show me how you would do it! Don’t you know my background? If you dare to do that, my dad will be the

first to give your family a hard time – believe it or not!”

Linda was speechless upon hearing that.

Rachel had a strong family background too.

“Alright, Rachel.” Elisa held her hand and looked at Linda at the same time. “It’s meaningless to come here today,

Linda. But you really have to know your place after that recording.”

“It’s you! I knew you were behind that, Elisa!”

Elisa smiled. “Because of the recording, you are more determined to attack me, aren’t you?”

“B*tch! Argh! I’ll kill you!” Linda burst out impulsively due to her rage.

Elisa replied with a smile, “You’re welcome to anytime.”

What if she recorded this session?
