The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 570 Fate Is Sealed

Yulissa was aware that Avery was more soft-hearted than Cayden. Considering how much Mr. Moore loves her, if she's willing to plead mercy for me, then I'll still have a chance to escape this predicament. I know I used to act all high and mighty in front of Avery. Moreover, my pride would never have allowed me to lower myself to ask her, someone I look down on, for help. However, I really have no other option but to seek Avery's aid now.

Gazing at Yulissa, Avery coldly stated, “The head of the Department of Education will decide your fate. I have no say in the matter.”

Yulissa was crying so hard that her makeup was ruined, inadvertently making her appear extra miserable. “You must have a way to save me. As long as you're willing to not hold me accountable, forgive me, and ask Mr. Moore to spare me, I'll be forever grateful to you—”

Icily, Avery interrupted, “I think you should better understand your current situation, Ms. Yantz. There are witnesses and evidence that prove you're guilty of your crime. Nothing will change even if I plead leniency for you. Everyone knows the law doesn't show mercy.” Besides, even if I can plead for leniency on her behalf, why should I? She deserves to be punished for her wrongdoing!

The head of the Department of Education nodded before glancing at Cayden's expression, wondering how he should handle the matter to satisfy the latter.

It was apparent to anyone with a sharp eye that Cayden had a special relationship with Avery.

“What will happen to my mother if I'm imprisoned, Avery? She has an operation next month. Someone needs to take care of her! We're both women, so why make things difficult for a fellow ally? Won't you please ask Mr. Moore to spare me, considering how we're colleagues and that I had helped you plenty of times before?” Yulissa stubbornly begged.

Once, she was brilliant like the sun. Yet, she seemed utterly pathetic at that moment, unlike her usual arrogant self in the company.

Nina couldn't watch her act any longer. Thus, she scoffed and exposed Yulissa without hesitation. “You're blatantly going against your conscience by saying that, Ms. Yantz. You'd often trouble Avery in the workplace by assigning her the heaviest workload and asking her to deal with the most difficult clients. Are you seriously going to call that 'helping' her? Oh, I just remembered something. When our company was signing a contract regarding a joint project with Vivi Group, Avery discovered the files on her flash drive were tampered with during her turn to speak. As a result, she was admonished by Vivi Group's chairman. I bet you were responsible for that.”

Time and again, you targeted me because of your personal grudges. My reputation was almost destroyed because of you! You don't deserve sympathy! I'll never forgive you! Also, it's pointless to ask me or anyone else for help. The one that'll decide your fate is the law. So, your
