Chapter 51

Just last night, Bella secretly met up with Michael, who was getting drunk in a pub. She told him that Zeke would push him under the bus to save himself at the press conference the next day.

–“Impossible! You… Don’t even think of using me like this! I won’t come forward as a witness. I’m

not that stupid!”

“You’re stupid if you still insist on being so stubborn.”

So, Bella and Michael negotiated a deal last night.

“I’ll be frank with you. I have evidence of you colluding with Zeke. I haven’t submitted it to the prosecutors yet because I wanted to give you one last chance for the sake of my father, since he was the one who promoted you to your position.”

Michael recalled his career over the past 20 years. He started off as a banquet hall supervisor and got promoted to vice president over the years. Aside from his own efforts, Wyatt’s support played a big

role in his career advancement.

Later, when Michael was in a position of power, he lost his integrity and ended up in this mess. He was regretful and guilty.

“If Zeke doesn’t push you out at tomorrow’s press conference, I will personally hand over this evidence to the prosecutor and proceed as planned. If he pushes you under the bus, as I predict he will, then you will report all his crimes to the prosecutor in person. If you realize your mistakes and correct them, I will hire a first-class lawyer to defend you and minimize your sentence. You can

choose for yourself.”

Bella successfully coerced Michael to hand over the evidence and be a witness to this case. This was a painful blow to the Gold family, and they would not recover from it.

She remembered what Wyatt often said, which was to always leave room for maneuver.
