Chapter 488

I raised my brows. "What are you trying to tell me, Petra?"

Petra took off her sunglasses and looked at me with a slight smile. "Do you really think I'll stay inprison for the rest of my life? Now that I'm out, I'll make sure you suffer all the pain I've suffered.”

I sneered.

"I know you’re not afraid.” Petra opened her arms. "But it's not going to be a pleasant feeling beinghated all the time and being watched by others like vipers. I admit it was my fault for hurting yourchild and I'm willing to compensate for it. I've also gotten my retribution after the death of Cindy’schild and the current predicament I'm in. So I hope that you’ll let this drop once and for all. My familyand I won't appear in front of you ever again.”

She was confident in thinking that I would say yes.

I mockingly smirked. "What if I don't agree?"

Petra's face turned cold. "If you don't agree, then be prepared to perish with Theo and GrantCorporation."

I nodded with a smile. "I believe you're capable of doing so.” "Do you agree or not, then?" Petra wasstarting to get

impatient.

Well, that made sense because her time was precious a s she needed to do a lot of things.

Since she had so many things to do, why was she wasting her energy coming to me to negotiate fornothing?

She should clearly know that I would definitely not let her go.

"You’re bad at putting yourself in someone else's shoe, Petra. If I had done something so horrible toyou and persuaded you to forgive me, would you?"

I continued to wear a smile on my face. "If you can't do it, Petra, neither can 1.1 have nothing toworry about and am extremely vindictive. Every time I think about my dead baby, I can’t stop myselffrom wanting to kill his murderer. But since this is a society ruled by law, everything must be solvedby legal means. Hence, I chose to use legal means to punish my baby’s murderer... without mercy.”

I rejected her completely, leaving no room for negotiations.

Petra's complexion paled. After a very long time, she said in a hoarse voice, "I've underestimatedyou, Wanda. Don't be too full of yourself, though. We don’t know who will have the last laugh yet."

I sneered. "Let’s give it our best, then.”

Petra put on her hat and sunglasses before leaving with her handbag. I turned to the side andlooked indifferently out the floor-to-ceiling window at Petra's back.

I must admit that what Quinn said earlier was true.

If Petra did not lose everything, she would bear a grudge against me and figure out a way toretaliate against me.

I must not go easy on her from now on.

I did not want her to die.

I wanted to make this a living hell for her.

I smirked, then got up and left the restaurant.

When I got to the office, I gave Tyler a call.

The call was answered after a very long time. Tyler was somewhere extremely noisy. I frowned."Free to talk?"

Tyler went somewhere quieter and said, "Go on."

"I want to meet Lawrence."

Tyler was stunned. "Why do you still want to meet him?"
