Chapter 137:

Judy felt a tingling sensation on her scalp as she heard those words. She wasn’t sure if she was imagining it, but she had definitely felt a strong sense of malice from Jayden just a moment ago. In search of a way out, she hastily mentioned, “Ms. Lloyd realized she forgot something and sent me to pick it up for her.”

Jayden fixed a long, searching gaze on her before inquiring, “So, have you managed to retrieve the item?”

Judy fought to keep her composure as she replied, “Yes, I’ve found it. I’ll deliver it to her later.”

Driscoll, overhearing the conversation, was filled with rage. He was convinced that Judy’s entry into Jayden’s room was for some covert purpose. “How could she claim she was merely assisting Elyse with an errand? She was not someone Elyse would turn to for help. She didn’t even like Judy.”

With a stormy look, Driscoll waited for Jayden to give an order. He was skeptical that Jayden would be deceived by Judy so easily. Yet Jayden, tapping his fingers thoughtfully on the table, asked slowly, “I see. Did she request that you deliver them immediately?”

“Yes, sir,” Judy answered with a nod.

“Very well, you may leave now,” Jayden said.

Judy looked up, startled by the ease of her dismissal. “Thank you,” she exclaimed. With her excitement barely contained, she exited the study with a bounce in her step.
