Chapter 124


    Before I left, I called Catherine, inviting her to go shopping, and mentioned looking for suitable gifts for


    my parents. I also suggested she try asking Gevena out, as I owed her a meal for helping with the


    overseas client. I was sure Jan was listening as I walked away.


    I stepped out the front door, then told Jan, “Transfer some money into my ount. I don’t want to be


    embarrassed again!” I said it with a cold indifference, then turned and left.


    My n was to gradually get him to willingly return the money he had taken.


    I hadn’t even reached my car when Jan came running after me, “Honey, wait up!”


    I nced at him, opened the car door and got in. He caught up with me and handed me a card. “This is


    my secondary card. Buy whatever you want with it. Treat Gevena to a fancy ce. We don''t want her


    looking down on us.”


    I took the card, giving him a cold re. “You should have been doing this sooner!” I also reminded him,


    “You better replenish our joint ount as soon as possible! I said one week, and I meant it!”


    Then, I mmed the car door shut and left, leaving Jan standing there, looking rather pale, watching


    my car disappear.


    Speaking of cars, I remembered I needed to get Marissa’s car back. She was enjoying my money and


    my status. What, did she think I was dead?


    After meeting up with Catherine, we went shopping as we waited for Gevena.


    Catherine told me, “Allie, the results are out. It''s definitely that kind of poison.”


    “I’ve already kicked Zora out!” I reported my recent victories to Catherine and what ra had told me. I


    also let her know that Jan had taken care of Zora and ra.


    “Damn it! That bastard.” Catherine cursed, “He is too kind to her.”


    “That''s excellent. I want Zora to think that Jan can protect her, so she wouldn’t give up. I need her.


    The better Jan treats them, the more interesting the drama will be.” I said, confidently. We shared a


    wicked smile. “I want to see who has more fight in them, Zora or Marissa. Who will Jan protect


    more?”


    “Marissa, of course. She has a kid. Besides, Zora is just a maid. She''s delusional if she thinks she can


    cause a stir. People these days, they dare to dream!” Catherinemented.


    “You never know. I think Jan just sees them as conquests, he doesn''t have any real feelings for


    them. Remember, he even tried to kill his own wife. He''s no better than an animal! He''s incapable of


    being a decent human being!”


    “You''re right!” Catherine agreed, “You know him best!”


    Sadly, I knew him toote. I had wasted my best years on this brute.


    “Has there been any news from Logan? I really want to find Addrion. If we could find him before we act,


    that would be great. He could be a big help.”


    “When are you nning to act?” Catherine asked, impatiently.


    “I need to get Jan to return the money to our ount first. That''s a significant amount! I''ll only feel


    secure once it''s back in my ount.”


    “Do you think he''ll return it easily?” Catherine doubted, “He went to great lengths to transfer it. He won''t


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    give it back easily.”


    “He has to!” I dered, “I will bring down the Dawson family! Send them to hell!”


    “Honey, I''m with you! Let''s do this.” Catherine was pumped, shocking the other shoppers.


    I quickly led her away,ughing.


    “My father called this afternoon. He mentioned the old house. It''s perfect timing. Even the universe is


    on my side! Jay was thrilled. I think he might be investigating behind my back. I can''t ask my parents


    for confirmation, I don''t want them to worry. So, you need to dig up some information for me. This is


    crucial. It''s the perfect catalyst. I can''t afford any mishaps!”


    “Consider it done!” Catherine called someone, and after a short conversation, she hung up and nodded


    at me, “It''s set!”


    I sighed in relief, “Now, I can get that money back.”
