Winona glanced at her phone/ greeted Richard, and asked Victor and the others to go ahead. Then, she went to a corner to answer the call.

“Hello.” A stranger’s voice came through the phone. “Ms. Chambers, I’ve given Lucas the sleeping pills as you instructed. He just thought he felt unwell and didn’t suspect anything. He’s already lying down. Like you said, he asked me to pick up Ms. Zeller, so I’m heading out now. I’ll take her to the hotel as you requested.”

He paused, then continued, “Ms. Chambers, you know how strict Lucas is with the household staff. If he finds out, I’m finished. So I hope you make sure to send me the 150 thousand dollars as promised. I’ve already booked my flight back home.”

Winona was afraid that Fabian would make mistakes and get caught by Yvette, so she patiently reassured him, even though she was utterly disgusted on the inside. She usually felt dirty just by looking at this kind of household staff.

“Don’t worry, Fabian. As long as you bring her over today, I’ll make sure the 150 thousand dollars is transferred to your account. With that money, you can return to the countryside and reunite with your wife and children.” Winona first dangled a promising reward in front of him.

Then, she paused and threatened him. “But don’t get too excited too soon. If you screw this up, you know the consequences. Crushing you would be as easy as stepping on an ant…

On the other end of the line, Fabian was startled by Winona’s tone. He couldn’t believe that the usually gentle Winona could be such a frightening person!

Fabian also couldn’t grasp why Winona wanted him to take Yvette to the hotel instead of back to the Chambers residence. When he got Winona’s message in the middle of the night, he couldn’t believe it. He hesitated for a long time before agreeing.

After all, it was just taking Yvette to a hotel in broad daylight. Winona wouldn’t do anything inappropriate. Ultimately, Fabian couldn’t resist the temptation of money and agreed to Winona’s deal.

Winona hung up the phone with a sinister smile on her face. She deleted the phone number and transaction details, ensuring she left nothing incriminating.
