Sasha returned to her room and locked the door behind her before she dialed a number.

It took a long while before her call was picked up. “Didn’t I tell you to not contact me? This is a very important period. Are you trying to get us killed?”

Sasha hurriedly cut in, “Do you think I wanted to do this? That woman is taking everything that is rightfully mine. If this keeps up, the Whites will fully accept her. They won’t allow my existence in the family once Gordon has investigated the matter!”

She paused before saying nervously, “You have to help me. This is a big deal for the both of us.”

The other end of the line fell silent.

After a while, the person on the other end of the line gruffly cursed, “You’re useless! I’ll see what I can do about Leah. All you need to do is curry favor with the Whites and remain calm. Got it?”

Sasha felt relieved to hear his promise.

He had never once failed throughout the years and always did as he promised.

He must have a way!

“Oh yeah, stop calling me for now,” the man suddenly warned. “Someone is investigating me. I’ll have to go into hiding for a while.”

Sasha sniffed and panicked. “But what if you disappear?”

“What are you so afraid of? Are the Whites going to devour you?” The disgruntled man immediately hung up the phone.

……

Leah woke up the next day.

The family phone suddenly began to ring as she was having breakfast. A maid picked up the call and raised her voice, “It’s a call for you, Ms. White.”

“For me?” Leah frowned unsure and picked up the call from where it was left off. “Hello.”

“Is this Sarah White? It’s me.” Sullivan’s severe voice sounded from the other end of the call.
