The woman trembled in fear, but she didn't dare to cry anymore and was quick to reply, “T-Three hundred thousand.”

Shane scoffed upon hearing that and mocked, “Three hundred thousand was all it took to get you to drug someone on her behalf? How cheap. Have you ever considered the possibility that not only might you never receive that money, but you could also get killed?”

The woman gasped after hearing that. Scared mindless, she asked, “M-Mr. Shane, are you going to kill me?”

“You schemed against me. Do you really think that I'd let you go?”

The woman trembled as she insisted, “Mr. Shane, it wasn't my doing. Ms. Graham was the one who drugged you. All I did was show up and let slip that I was the culprit while trying to take you to the lounge. She hired me to do that so that you wouldn't suspect her of being the mastermind. In truth, she is the one behind everything. I had nothing to do with it, Mr. Shane!”

“Although you did not drug me, what you did could've destroyed my family! That is why I will not show you any mercy,” roared Shane before he turned and left.

Scared out of her wits, the woman sat there in a daze as tears rolled down her cheeks.

At that moment, she truly regretted her decision. Why did I let myself get blinded by the money? How did I forget that the target is the CEO of Thompson Group?

He is known as Lucifer among the tycoons in J City, and being caught meant either death or torture. Why the f*ck did I trust Jacqueline when she said that I could get out of it in one piece?
