New beginning: Billionaire love story

Chapter 184 “Are you serious?”

Max hesitated, eyeing her warily. "What kind of agreement?"

"We'll give you more money than what you're getting paid now. As long as you tell me who hired you." Claire said.

Max hesitated, considering her offer. "How much are you willing to pay me?"

Claire didn't miss a beat. "I'll pay you double what the person who hired you is paying."

Max's eyes widened. He knew Claire was serious, and he could be swayed by the right amount of money. After a moment of silence, he nodded. "Alright, I'll tell you who orchestrated the whole thing."

Matthew and Claire exchanged a glance, understanding the gravity of the situation. Claire turned back to Max. "It's better if we find a place to talk about this. Get in the car."

Max reluctantly agreed and followed them to the car. Claire sat in the back seat to keep an eye on Max, while Matthew took the wheel. As they drove, Claire leaned forward. "Ok, Max. Who's behind all this? I'm sure you are not working alone." Max shifted uncomfortably before finally speaking. "It's Lisa Thompson."

Claire couldn't believe what she was hearing. Her brow furrowed in disbelief. "Lisa Thompson? Are you serious?"

Max nodded, pulling out his phone to show her a text conversation between him and Lisa. "Look for yourself."

Claire took his phone and scanned the messages. It was undeniable. She quickly pulled out her own phone and snapped a photo of the conversation.

"What are you doing?" Max asked, his voice edged with nervousness.

Claire gave him a stern look. "I pay you, and you stay silent. Understood?"

Max gulped and nodded. "Alright, fine."
