Chapter 76 She Had an Episode

Seeing her approach, Angie stepped back, her face twisted into a sinister smile.

"I want the rest of the money, or I'll jump. But before I do, I'll post everything online.

"I'll tell everyone Sebastian fired me to keep me away from his lover.

"I'll say I jumped because I lost my job and couldn't take it anymore.

"Joey, do you think today's Winters Group celebration will be a big deal for Sebastian?

"If you don't want that, get the money ready, or deal with the fallout."

As she spoke, she showed Joey a pre-written post.

It was filled with tragic images and words.

Joey knew if the media got hold of this, they'd blow it out of proportion.

Especially now, during the Winters Group anniversary celebration, with some family members keeping a close watch on Sebastian.

Any mishap at such an important event would have a huge impact on him.

She couldn't let that happen.

But her heart ached.

She never thought Angie would be so shameless.

Joey felt like she was being pushed to the brink of life and death.

She knew Angie wouldn't really jump. She just wanted to gain sympathy.

But Sebastian was the man she had loved for seven years, and she didn't want to jeopardize his hard-earned CEO position because of her.

Joey tried to stay calm, but her trembling voice betrayed her anxiety.

"Come down first. I'll give you however much money you want. Please, just come down."

Angie saw Joey's plea but felt no sympathy, only excitement.
