    Violet nodded gently. Her expression was cool. “But you lured my mother’s husband away and made


    her miserable for a long time. You have to pay for this first.”


    “Right…” Yvette seemed to agree. “I’m really sorry.”


    “I don’t want your apology,” Violet interrupted with a smile. “Print ten thousand posters with your photo


    on it in high-definition and a simple paragraph confessing how you had an affair with a married man


    and reced his wife. Then write about how you regret it.” She studied the middle-aged woman’s face


    as it changed, before continuing, “Then put up these posters on every corner of every street in


    Rheinsville City. On telephone poles and outside of supermarkets. I won’t be participating so you’ll


    have to do it yourself. I’ll agree to your request when I’m satisfied.


    Having said that, Violet downed the coffee in her cup.


    She must finish her beverage before she left. She was not a wasteful girl.


    Putting down the cup as she stood up, Violet looked at Yvette’s face, which had turned ugly. She said


    nonchntly, “I’m not forcing you to do this. Send me photos if you do it. I’ll grant your wish as long as


    you aplish this within the next three days. My offer expires after that.”


    Then, she turned around and left without a backward nce.


    Yvette clenched her fists tightly and red at Violet’s back in fury and hatred. Her heart was burning


    with fury; her mood could not be fouler than this!


    Recalling the entire conversation they had moments ago, Yvette knew that Violet was full of criticism


    about her.


    What Violet asked of her was too much!


    It had been so many years since what had happened. Must she publicize it now? So what if she did as


    Violet asked? Would it mean that Xayah Gordon had won?


    Violet drove off. She had told Zoey that she would be home for lunch.


    Meanwhile, at the Yancey Group offices.


    The atmosphere in the high-rise building was clearly very different from usual. There was excitementOriginal content from N?velDrama.Org.


    and trepidation in the air.


    Jared wasing to Rheinsville. Everybody knew what this meant; the potential deal that the Yancey


    Group had been following for three years was about to bear fruit.


    Billions would be flowing through their ounts once the deal was sessfully signed. It was a win-


    win arrangement.


    Anyone would feel invigorated just thinking about it.


    Armand Ziegler held a position of mid-level seniority in thepany. He had not been given the


    opportunity to participate in such an important case; all that he knew about it was hearsay.


    From Armand’s perspective, Jack Yancey’s position in Senior Yancey’s heart would be even more


    secured once the deal was sealed. How could Liampete against such a disy of high


    competence?


    Armand scowled in his private office.


    His cell phone rang. He took one look at the caller ID and hurriedly walked to his office door and locked


    it. He answered the call only when he was standing at the window. “Hi.”


    “Are you busy?” It was Samantha.


    “Not really, the workload is as usual.”


    “Can Dawn take an earlier flight?” Samantha said from the other end of the line. “I’ve spoken with


    Senior Yancey to figure out his thoughts on all this. He has decided to have Violet as his daughter-in-


    law but he isn’t opposed to the idea of Dawn visiting him at the old manor. I think half of our n will


    have seeded if we can just get Jack and Dawn to meet each other once. Violet hasn’t married Jack


    yet, after all.”


    “Have you heard about Jared?” He changed the topic.


    “I’m talking to you about something serious!” Samantha was annoyed.


    “This is serious too,” he emphasized.


    Samantha was startled. She thought back to the name he had just mentioned. “What’s up? Jared is


    someone the Yancey Group has always wanted a partnership with, but he has only been observing the


    Yancey Group’s progress for the past few years. He isn’t going totch on to thepany just because


    it’s powerful. I heard that he has been contemting a partnership with the Yancey Group.”

    “Jared has arrived in Rheinsville City,” Armand said in a low voice. “He has just gotten off the ne and


    is meeting with Jack soon.”


    “Has he agreed to the partnership?” Samantha’s heart sank. “Then… Then won’t Jack be even


    more powerful?”
