Chapter 461

Maeve wasn't convinced. She looked at Fiora and said flatly. "The real question is whether your information is worth anything. Who are you talking about?"

Fiora hesitated, grinding her teeth for a second. "If I just tell you everything. I'll be useless, won't I?"

"Do we look like we're negotiating with you?" Byron's voice was cold, and his whole demeanor made the air feel a lot heavier.

Maeve shot back. "You could always go to the police station, think it over, and decide if you really want to talk."

Fiora nearly exploded. "This bitch!"

If Fiora wasn't completely broke and had already burned all her bridges, she wouldn't be standing here. No one wanted to help her anymore, and she needed money, badly.

She couldn't keep living like this. It was all about getting the cash, so she could at least keep some of her dignity. With no other option, Fiora gave in. She needed that money.

"Fine. I'll tell you, but don't break your promise," she said, glaring at them. Then, she dropped a bombshell. "It's Tom Hum!"

Maeve froze, shocked. "What are you talking about? You used to call him 'Uncle. Are you really going to slander him like this?"

"I'm not slandering him!" Fiora shot back. "I heard it with my own ears-he sent someone named Sandy to poison your drink and shut you up!"

"He knows who you really are. If he cripples you, you'll lose your inheritance, and then you won't be a threat to him."

Maeve frowned. Fiora had been kicked out of the palace, there was no way she could know about her true identity.

Byron could tell they weren't getting anything useful from Fiora. He gave a signal, and the bodyguards moved in.
