Chapter 239: Worried and Scared

Meanwhile in Sephina’s office.

The three Ford women were glued to the screen, where Faye had revealed Amelia Brown’s name and had been proven guilty by Natalie.

"This Natalie!" Briena exclaimed. "Why does it feel like she was aware of what was going to happen and prepared everything beforehand? Were you trapping her, or was she trapping us?" Briena said in disbelief. "What will happen now?"

Clara patted her daughter’s hand and said, "Don’t worry. Nothing will come to us. Faye or no one else is aware of our involvement—not even Amelia Brown. As I said before, if it fails, Amelia Brown will be the one to face the consequences."

Briena hummed and looked at her grandmother, whose gaze had turned colder.

"Grandma," Briena called out.

"We have underestimated her," Sephina said. "I keep forgetting she would be sly and deceitful like her mother. This girl, I have to crush her tail soon before she grows bigger. I can’t let her gain power."

"Grandma, didn’t you see she already gained power by having the NextEra CEO with her?" Briena said.

Just then, they heard something from the TV, and all of their bodies froze.

"Are you Aroma?" they heard Ms. Taylor asking Natalie.

The TV screen showed both their expressions—Ms. Taylor’s shock with realization and Natalie responding with a smile.

"G-Grandma..." Briena’s next words choked in her throat as they watched what was happening next.
