Rayan stared at her and asked solemnly, “Then tell me, was everything you said true?”

Emma’s eyes widened as if in disbelief. “Of course, it was. I swear that not a single word I said was a lie!”

His expression eased a little. “Then, what is your relationship with them?”

Emma’s face instantly stiffened for a moment, but after a pause, she raised her chin and answered proudly without any sense of shame, “This woman has been constantly targeting me just because she likes Callum, and I’m the person Callum likes.”

Normally, Elspeth would probably not be able to resist the urge to gripe at her, but now, Emma was just digging her own grave step by step. She couldn’t wait to mock her, much less blame her for her big mouth.

At her words, things instantly became clear for Rayan. As expected, Elspeth was right, and this woman wanted to dispose of Elspeth by using him.

At the thought of this, he began to boil with anger, but he still remained calm and gentle on the surface. “Miss Walker, is it?”

Meanwhile, Emma assumed that she was well-known from his question and lowered her head bashfully. “I never expected you to recognize me, Mr. Adler. It truly is an honor.”

Upon hearing that, Elspeth couldn’t help but chortle.

Emma suddenly felt a burst of humiliation. She swiveled around and glared viciously at Elspeth before turning back to Rayan and asking with a smile, “Please don’t mind her. She’s always been an oddball. By the way, what are you planning to do with her?”

Best if he sent a few men to ruin her! That way, even if she survives and returns to Callum, he wouldn’t like her anymore. After all, nobody likes used goods!

“If it’s really as you said, I do
