The audio file was of Bryan confessing everything about Abigailâs plans-how she had seduced and tricked him into stealing KS World Hotelâs confidential information before giving it to her.
Abigailâs phone fell to the ground.
Her shaking grew more violent as she hugged herself tightly, feeling like her world had crumbl Betty took a hot bubble bath that night before commencing her skincare routine. Ever since Landon gave her those warnings that day, all for Laurenâs sake, she hadnât been able to sleep well.
It seemed as though a heavy burden rested upon her chest, steadily increasing in weight.
She truly didnât understand how that idiotic sister of hers could have Alyssa Taylor back her up. Now, even Landon was standing up for her!
âThat lying, thieving bitch!â Betty cried, using her lipstick to scrawl Laurenâs name on the mirror before furiously crossing it out. âJust you wait⦠when Iâm Berenikeâs CEO-â
Her phone rang.
Betty scowled when she saw it was Zoe. Nonetheless, she adopted a sweet and gentle tone. âHey, Zoe Whatâs up?â said Betty.
âNothing good!â Zoe said anxiously. âAlyssa has found the mole in her company and already had him arrested by the police!â
âWhat? How?â Betty cried, anxiety picking up in her chest. âW-What about Abigail? Is she safe?â
âDidnât you see the live stream catching her in bed with her boss, Matthew? The guyâs wife went to their hotel room in person to reveal them to the public. They didnât even have time to put on any clothes!â
Betty slowly sat back in her chair, mind filled with nothing but a loud buzzing noise Why did everything change so drastically and so fast? She had only taken a bubble bath.
âHurry up and delete all your message history with Abigail before the police track you down!â Zoe reminded sternly.
âG-Got it!â
Just then, another call came in from Bettyâs secretary.
âOne second, Zoe, I need to get this call.â Betty theh put Zoe on hold and answered her secretaryâs incoming call. âDo you have any news about Abigail?â
âTerrible news, Ms. Betty!â the girl cried over the phone. âMs. Grant got into an accident near Petale Street! Sheâs being resuscitated in the hospital right as we speak.â
âHell yeah!â Betty yelled in relief.
âHuh?
Betty elaborated, âAlyssa Taylor just caught the mole. That means Abigail is right next on her list. If she gets her hands on Abigail, weâre doomed. This accident couldnât have come at a better time!â
Betty grinned and continued, âHmph! That little whoreâs done enough for us. The best thing she can do now is stay in that hospital and not cause us any trouble!â
Alyssa naturally knew of Abigailâs accident minutes after it occurred. She was in the wine cellar Jonah had custom-built for her.
When Sean reported the news to her, she was picking a nightcap to enjoy before bed.
âSources say she may have gotten distracted and lost focus when she ventured onto the road. Looks like being found sleeping with her boss really impacted her,â reported Sean.
Sean held onto the ladder while Alyssa perused the shelf labels up top.
âShe wasnât too bad looking. Pity she chose to sell herself out like some piece of meat.â There was not an ounce of pity in Alyssaâs eyes, though, as she said that.
Sean nodded. âMrs. Farley really did a number on them.â
âAs she should. Worse would have awaited a third wheel like Abigail Grant if sheâd gone unpunished.â
Alyssaâs marriage had been ruined by a third wheel, too-Liana Gardner. Just because Jasper never loved or cared for her during their three years of marriage, it didnât mean Lianaâs stepping in was acceptable.
âNow that the two small fish have been taken care of, should we focus on the shark?â Sean asked.
âNot yet. Weâll let Betty enjoy her short-lived glee.â Alyssa slowly walked down the stairs.
Her phone then rang.
It was General Mutt himself.
