Chapter 495


    George’s expression was sinister. When he looked at Mnie, he gave her a cold smile,


    revealing his yellowish teeth. “Drop the charges against me, and I''ll give you the evidence. It’s not the first time that little bitch


    has egged your stupid mother on.”


    George deliberately lowered his voice to create a sense of urgency. “So, how about it?”


    Mnie looked at him calmly and silently.


    It was inevitable that George was aware of Dn’s actions.


    However, there was a reason Mnie had not approached him first. She knew that George was crafty and might not tell the


    truth.


    George was not afraid of Mnie’s gaze. He remained calm and said, “Anyway, the evidence is with me. It’s up to you whether


    you agree to my terms or not.”


    Mnie’s expression never changed even as they left the detention center.


    Stephen asked, “What do you think about George’s proposal?”


    “| won''t take it,” Mnie said firmly.


    George was the one behind her grandfather’s death. Mnie would not let George off just to get evidence against Vi...


    especially since George’s words were not credible to begin with.


    Stephen nodded and cast the thought from his mind. He then took Mnie to the parking lot and chatted with her intermittently.


    “Mr. Henry is back. | heard that the Scotts are celebrating his birthday next week.”


    He asked Mnie, “Will you be there?”


    Everyone in upper society more or less knew each other. Moreover, Stephen’s family got along with the Scotts to begin with, and


    they never lost touch with each other.


    That was why Stephen knew that Henry Scott had always favored Mnie.


    Mnie said, “He told me about it, so I''ll be there.”Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    “| also heard that Xander offered you a learning opportunity, but you refused?” Stephen asked again.


    Mnie nced back at the door of the detention center. “There are some things | have to take care of before | can rest easy.”


    “If it''s Dn and George, | can help you keep an eye on them.” Stephen pondered for a moment and tried to convince Mnie,


    “Since you want to continue in this line of work, you can’t waste any time. Mel, you have to put yourself first.”


    It was not that Mnie did not understand what Stephen was saying. She just could not get over her grandfather’s death so


    easily, so she had to take care of Dn and Vi first. Mnie got out of the car near a business district and went to find


    Henry''s birthday present. Henry had invited her to his birthday bash, so she could not go empty-handed.


    She had just paid for the gift at the counter when a text message shed on her screen.


    It was from Yana. [Mnie, Vi and Mr. Scott are arguing. It looks serious. Many people are saying that it''s because of you.]


    Mnie frowned and replied, [What does it have to do with me?]


    [Didn’t youe to thepany to deliver a document to Mr. Scott that day? Thepany has been buzzing with rumors these


    past few days, saying that you and Mr. Scott have gotten back together. Vi’s been green in the gills ever since.]


    [It wasn’t so bad at first. She would just re at Mr. Scott wistfully during the meetings. | don’t know why, but they started arguing


    in the office today.]


    Yana quickly spammed a few messages. Mnie looked at the gossip and read the curiosity between the messages. After a


    moment, she put her phone away.


    She did not care why Vi and Eugene were quarreling.


    At the same time...
