I'll admit it, I did deceive her. However, I only did it because I wanted to deter her from causing aruckus.

Sasha's face was ashen as she uttered, “I really didn't know that things would turn out like this. Youcan't just pin the blame on me. Besides, I take no part in any of this in the first place.”

"Are you sure about that? Didn't you botch the last task that I gave to you?”

"You..."

"Don't get the wrong idea, Sasha. I'm not mad at you or anything like that. I just wish to make a dealwith you. Help me revoke the lawsuit against Sinch Enterprise and I'll help you to rescue Frieda fromthe Jadesons. It's a fair deal, don't you think? In fact, I think I'm the one who's losing out in thisdeal.”

You? Losing out?

Ha! Don't make me laugh. There's no way a crafty woman like you would make a deal that puts youat a disadvantage.

I'm not going to fall for your tricks again. Just as Sasha was about to hang up the phone, Yancyadded on, “Of course, I won't force you to accept the deal, Sasha. In any case, all your secrets will beexposed once Frieda is in the Jadesons’ hands. And when that happens, your precious lover won'tbe breathing for much longer.”

What a b*tch! How could she say such a thing!

Sasha was livid.

"Yancy, I'm disappointed at myself for believing your words just now. But I assure you, it won't everhappen again. Did you really think that I'm jejune enough to keep falling into your traps? If you trulyhave the ability to rescue Frieda from the Jadesons, You would've already secured her. With Frieda inyour hands, it'll be way easier to convince me to accept your deal. You wouldn't have needed to gothrough the trouble of calling me,” uttered Sasha in a sarcastic tone.

Upon hearing Sasha's response, the smug look on Yancy's face suddenly disappeared.

“Sasha, you..."

Before Yancy could say anything, Sasha cut her off, “No matter what you say, I can't accept the deal.Even if I do have the authority to revoke the lawsuit against Sinch Enterprise, I won't do it. I guessyou just have to deal with it yourself.”

Sasha hung up the phone immediately after.

Brimming with anger, Yancy threw her phone onto the ground.

“That little wench! How dare she rejects my offer!”

“Mrs. Tsurka...”

The housekeeper walked up to Yancy to conciliate her. “Take a deep breath, Mrs. Tsurka. Let's assessthe situation we're in right now. So if the Jadesons replace out that the mother and her child are stillalive, we won't have any bargaining chips against them anymore.”

“You think I don’t know that? Why do you think I called Sasha?”

Yancy's face looked menacing.

The housekeeper quickly nodded and replied, “I see. However, now that she has seen through ourscheme, we only have one option left. Tomorrow will be Mr. Solomon's court appearance day. Wemust prevent him from being sent to prison at all costs.”

With her teeth clenched, Yancy picked up her phone.

A while later, Sasha received a message from Yancy. "Okay, so here's the deal. I will unequivocallyprovide you with the location of Frieda by tonight. In the meantime, you help me obtain thevideotape of Ken and Frederick signing the share transfer consent form. What do you say?”

Humph, this cunning old fox doesn’t know when to give up huh?

Sasha ignored Yancy's message.

Not long after, Yancy sent another message to Sasha. “I know you still have your doubts about me.Don't worry, once I've found out Frieda’s location, I'll contact you again. If I fail to provide you withher coordinates, you don't need to give me the videotape.”

Yancy was getting rather desperate to gain Sasha's trust.

Twiddling her thumbs, Sasha was lost in her thoughts.

After a while, she suddenly picked up her phone and gave out a call.

“Hello? Is this the legal department? I'm Ms. Wand.”

"Hello, Ms. Wand. It's quite late already. Is there something urgent?”

"Oh, no. I just wanted to ask, are you guys done preparing for tomorrow's court appearance? Iheard that the defendant himself will be the one attending the court appearance.”

Sasha was very careful with her words as to avoid arousing suspicion

"Yes. Originally, the one that would be attending tomorrow's court appearance was the defendant'slawyer. However, the defendant wants to represent himself instead,” the receptionist of the legaldepartment explained in detail.

"Yeah. That's because the defendant himself is an outstanding lawyer. Have you heard of him?”uttered Sasha.

“Yeah. Solomon is an august lawyer. That being said, we'll still be able to win against him in court aslong as we have sufficient evidence.”
