Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 916: Betrayal of Orion

Amy felt a pang of discomfort at the mention of betrayal. "It's not betrayal. I would never betray him!"

"Not betrayal? Then what would you call what you're doing now?"

"My business doesn't concern you. All you need to know is that I'll do my best to persuade him," Amy replied curtly, unwilling to explain further.

She believed that as long as Aveline failed, the entire company would blame her for losing the partnership and causing financial loss. Orion, a man deeply committed to his work, would undoubtedly hold Aveline responsible as well. This way, Amy could not only drive Aveline out of the company but perhaps even make Orion grow tired of her. Why wouldn't she take advantage of that?

"Fine, if that's how you want it, I'll cooperate with you," Brett said. "But Amy, if things don't work out with Orion, my door is always open for you."

"Forget it. I have only one request-keep your mouth shut about this. Don't tell anyone," Amy said coldly.

"I understand. I'll wait for your good news. Bye." Brett, in high spirits, hung up the phone.

This project was just one part of the game. His true aim was to bring down Orion.

After hanging up, Brett pondered. Others might not know Amy, but he did. That woman was obsessed with Orion. Betrayal was impossible for her. But what could be driving her to do this?

Just as he was mulling over the possibilities, another call gave him a hint.

His internal line rang. The receptionist informed him it was someone from Posit Properties. Amy had just called him from her private phone, so who was calling now?

He picked up the call. "Hello?" he asked, intrigued.

A clear, cool female voice came through, refreshing like a mountain spring. She was calling about an acquisition.

A smile tugged at Brett's lips. He had a hunch. This woman was here to discuss business, the complete opposite of Amy.
