Chapter 569


    Chapter 569 Fate Was In Her Hands


    Wisteria calmly stood and approached Yulissa arrogantly.


    Meanwhile, Yulissa was trembling, rooted to the spot. Still, she gritted her teeth and spat, “Don''t you


    dare go overboard, Ms. Summers! What do you want?”


    Wisteria lowered her gaze. “It''s not about what I want right now, Ms. Yantz. It''s about what you want.”


    In her eyes, Yulissa was but an obedient and usefulpdog.


    If Yulissa performed her task well, she would be rewarded. If not, she would be tossed aside.


    If not for the fact that Yulissa had done plenty of good for Wisteria in the past, thetter wouldn''t have


    bothered to acquaint herself with the former.


    Yulissa roared, “Don''t think that I''m afraid of you just because you have dirt on me, Wisteria!


    Considering how my situation has turned out, I won''t hesitate to drag you down with me! I''m fine with


    having a tarnished reputation, but what about you, Ms. Summers? You''ve always been a prestigious


    figure in thepany. If I spill the truth to everyone, do you think you can still maintain your excellent


    image in thepany?”


    “Oh? What do you want me to do, then?” Wisteria lifted her eyebrow.


    “You''re the cause of this mess, so you must help me clean it up. If it weren''t for you, I wouldn''t have set


    up Avery. I don''t want a falling out between us, Ms. Summers. You''re smart, so you understand what I


    mean.” The storm of emotions in Yulissa''s heart had calmed slightly.


    She didn''t want a falling out with Wisteria because she had to rely on thetter.


    In response, Wisteria sneered. So, Yulissa has learned how to threaten people, huh?


    She leaned toward Yulissa''s ear and whispered with intimidation, “I''m warning you, Yulissa. Some


    things should never escape your lips. I have records of the kickbacks you pocketed from clients. If


    you''re charged with nder, you''ll at most be fined and imprisoned for a while. However, if your bribery


    is exposed, there''ll be trouble for you. Putting aside the fact that no one in the industry will ever hire


    you again, you may even need to spend a few years in prison. So, you''d better consider your choices


    carefully, Yulissa!”


    Upon hearing that, Yulissa froze and stared at Wisteria in disbelief. I can''t believe this woman is this


    despicable!


    She chuckled in despair, met Wisteria''s cold eyes, and mocked, “Now I know why Mr. Moore would


    rather choose that ordinary Avery over you, who has been following him for a decade. A scheming,


    selfish, and self-centered woman like you has no one but yourself to me for Mr. Moore''sck of


    interest in you! If I were a man, I wouldn''t want a specious and devious woman like you too!”


    Yulissa''s words were like a poison needle stabbing right into the most painful spot in Wisteria''s heart,


    causing it to bleed ck.


    Immediately, Wisteria grabbed something on the table and hurled it in Yulissa''s direction. “Get out! I


    want you out of my face now!”


    Yulissa shot Wisteria a pitying look, left the room without turning her head back, and mmed the door


    shut.


    Furiously, Wisteria swept all the documents on the table to the ground.


    Hatred swirled in her eyes while a tornado of wrath consumed her heart.


    After all, Yulissa once again reminded her of the cruel reality that Cayden didn''t love her.

    So what if he doesn''t love me now? Wisteria gritted her teeth. I loved him for ten years, and I can do


    ten more! As long as he remains unmarried, I''ll have a chance to make him mine!


    Meanwhile, Avery went to the Department of Education with Cayden, Xavier, Nina, and the others.


    The cheating incident was speedily resolved as Avery had Evangeline and a male candidate acting as


    her witnesses.


    Yulissa did her best to defend herself, but she lost because there were two witnesses and even


    physical evidence of her wrongdoing.


    No one knew where Xavier managed to get his hands on the surveince footage. The footage was


    blurry because the camera was quite far from where the incident urred and was installed at a


    terrible angle. However, the footage was still clear enough for everyone to see the woman who stole


    information from Avery''s bag was Yulissa.


    The evidence was irrefutable.


    Upon identifying the actual facts of the matter, the Department of Education made an announcement


    on the inte, informing the public of the truth behind the cheating incident. Additionally, they cleared


    Avery''s name and reprimanded Yulissa for ndering Avery due to a personal grudge.


    Yulissa was soon arrested by the police for her crime.


    Avery released a sigh of relief.


    Just before the police officers brought Yulissa away, she dashed toward Avery and clutched Avery''s


    hand, pleading, “I know what I did was wrong, Avery. I''m sorry. Can you please forgive me?” My life will


    be ruined if I''m thrown into prison!


    Avery was speaking to Evangeline and Nina when it happened. She didn''t expect Yulissa to rush over


    to her at high speed, so she was almost bumped to the ground. Thankfully, Cayden caught her in the


    nick of time.


    “Are you okay?” Panickily, he examined Avery.


    “I''m fine.” Avery shook her head.


    Cayden shot a sharp re at Yulissa and spat coldly, “What the heck do you think you''re doing,


    Yulissa?”


    “M-Mr. Moore...” Fearfully, Yulissa released Avery''s hand as Cayden was emanating an imposing aura.


    However, when she thought about how her fate was in Avery''s hands, she believed there might be a


    chance to avoid a terrible end if she pleaded for mercy.


    With teary eyes and a pale countenance, Yulissa yed the sympathy card with Avery. “We''ve worked


    together for a long time, Avery. I know I was usually quite strict with you, but I did it for your own good.


    It''s because I wanted you to develop quickly in thepany. Yes, I''m in the wrong for setting you up


    this time. I apologize for my actions. However, I... I have a sickly mother waiting for me. I''m the only


    daughter she has, and I need to take care of her at the hospital every day. If I''m imprisoned, what''ll


    happen to my mother? Can''t you forgive me this time? I promise I won''t treat you like this again, so can


    you please help me ask Mr. Moore to spare me?”


    When Avery heard about Yulissa''s sickly mother, her heart softened. “I—”


    Just as Avery was about to speak, Cayden, who understood her thought processes well, narrowed his


    eyes dangerously and interrupted, “You should''ve thought of the consequences when you did that to


    Avery, Yulissa! She won''t forgive you, and I especially won''t too!”


    Murderous intent was detected in his frigid tone. I won''t forgive anyone who dares to hurt Avery!


    “I''m truly sorry for what I did to you, Ms. Rumpley! I shouldn''t have hurt you like this. I promise that if


    you let me go, I''ll leave Ackleton and never reappear in your life.” Yulissa''s tears streamed down her


    cheeks.


    She genuinely regretted her decision. I know there''s no changing the oue of this messy incident,


    but I still want to try to beg for leniency.
