Chapter 240

These days, Gillian was too afraid to go out. She had been locking herself in her room and spending her days and nights in a daze.

Occasionally, when the phone rang, it would startle her.

Jarron asked her what was wrong, but she did not say anything. She just looked at the sky with a blank expression.

After a while, the phone rang again.

Gillian glanced at the caller ID. It was Yvonne.

Due to her inner turmoil, she was hesitant to answer the call.

After the phone rang for a long time, she carefully reached out and picked it up. “Hello…”

She had only said one word when Yvonne streamed angrily at her from the other end. “Gillian, you’re fucking messing with me! You gave me some incomplete prescriptions and made a fool out of me in front of the vice president. You even implicated Jack.”

Yvonne was so angry that her body kept trembling.

“Well, Gillian Dale, you’re quite something.

“You handed me a bunch of incomplete prescriptions, and this garbage was posted on the Internet more than ten years ago.

“It could be found with a simple search online.

“Online?” Gillian was perplexed.

“Cut your pretense!” Yvonne’s jaw tightened. “Don’t tell me you haven’t seen Olivia’s blog. Even if you haven’t, many people have reposted it online. The prescriptions you gave me were published by her on the Internet over ten years ago.”

“Impossible!” Gillian exclaimed and hurriedly hung up the phone to search for Olivia’s blog.

As expected, it had been posted more than a decade ago.

Gillian was dumbfounded.

She called Olivia’s number in a hurry, but no one answered the phone.

Gillian refused to give up. From morning until evening, she had been persistently calling Olivia hundreds of times.
