Olivine’s entire being trembled at the sight of him. It was as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her head, drenching her from head to toe.

“Are the results out?” she asked, her voice raspy.

“Yes. I told you, right? There’s nothing I can’t do,” the scarred man replied with a smug grin. He sat across from Olivine and drank from her glass.

After soothing his throat, he put on a solemn expression and began to reveal the results of his investigation. “The nurse who delivered Angeline’s baby said she gave the baby to a man named Mr. Miller. She was paid five hundred thousand to keep this a secret.”

After a pause, he added, “If I hadn’t resorted to special means to dig up the truth, the fact that Floretta Golding’s birth mother is Angeline Sorelle will forever remain a secret!”

Floretta’s birth mother is Angeline?

Olivine slumped in her seat in shock before she could wipe the tears away from her face.

She gripped the tablecloth so tightly that her body started shivering.

How can this be? What right does Angeline have to be connected to Evander this way?

“Ms. Sherrock, since we’ve collaborated previously, I shall help you deal with this,” the scarred man offered casually as his gaze turned dark.

“Kill the nurse so she won’t tell anyone the truth!” Olivine commanded as her chest heaved. She slammed the table as jealousy eroded her rationality. “I’ll pay you one million if you can get this done!”

I cannot let Evander find out that Angeline is Floretta’s birth mother. Otherwise, I will never stand a chance against her.

“Deal!”

After the scarred man left, Olivine’s jealousy intensified. She knew that with her current state, she couldn’t defeat Angeline alone and needed someone else to help her.

Thus, she pulled her phone out to contact Sherrock Group’s PR department. She ordered them to inform all subsidiaries of Sherrock Group to withdraw their investment from Sorelle Group.

That very day, Sorelle Group suffered a huge blow. As a result of the withdrawal of investment, they couldn’t continue with their latest bidding project today. Being forced to pause work for one day meant they lost a considerable sum of labor costs.
