Chapter 763



Verena hadn’t anticipated that the two photos Kylee had snapped would ignite such chaos.

The photos Minna had received had actually been sent by her using a prepaid anonymous phone, carefully chosen to mask her identity.

Minna had indeed taken action after seeing those photos…

Breaking the silence, Minna’s voice cut through Verena’s thoughts, her tone filled with venom. “That woman, Belinda, is a scheming, manipulative bitch! She thrives on stealing what doesn’t belong to her. First, she lured Mr. Clark away from you, and then, she had the audacity to seduce Darwin as well! Such a shameless, despicable woman cannot be allowed to live well! But now, I don’t have many options left. If Mr. Clark or the Burke family capture me, it will all be over for me. I won’t have another chance to seek revenge. So, Miss Reed, I sincerely hope you can help me!”

In seeking assistance, Minna’s demeanor shifted to one of extreme humility. She simply looked at Verena with wide eyes filled with desperation.

After a brief pause filled with tension and unspoken thoughts, Verena replied, “Alright, I’ll help you.” Of course, she would help Minna! How could she let such a valuable pawn fall into her enemy’s hands?

“Thank you, Miss Reed.” Minna’s eyes glistened with relief, and she exhaled deeply as though a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

Verena adjusted her posture and spoke firmly, her tone brooking no argument. “For now, stay here and don’t step outside. No wandering, no risks. If they catch you, it’s over. If you need anything—anything at all—just tell me, and I’ll make sure you get it.”

Minna nodded vigorously, her voice filled with determination. “Don’t worry; I won’t go anywhere.”

Verena leaned closer, her expression serious. “Also, I need you to recount every place you’ve visited since departing from the Burke family’s residence. Don’t skip a single detail.”

Minna seemed to understand Verena’s intent immediately. Her response was swift and confident. “Don’t worry. I made sure to avoid all surveillance cameras, and I disguised myself to ensure no one would recognize me.”

Hearing this, Verena arched an eyebrow, surprised by Minna’s cleverness.

However…

“Good,” Verena replied, her voice steely. “But to be safe, those surveillance recordings must be erased. We can’t afford any mistakes. Just tell me about the places you went to.”

“Understood,” Minna replied promptly. She then told Verena about every location she had visited since leaving the Burke household.

Verena jotted down the addresses with precision, her mind already formulating the next steps. “You can stay in that room,” she said. “Let me know if you want anything, and I’ll arrange it for you.”

Minna hesitated for a moment before speaking. “I’d like to make a call to my friend, Macie.”

“No way! You can’t do that!” Verena immediately rejected the idea.

Minna fell silent for a moment, processing the abrupt response, before speaking again. “I understand what you’re worried about, but it will be fine. Macie is my best friend, and she would never betray me.”

“I said no!” Verena’s voice was firm, her face darkening.

She paused for a moment and then added, “Even if she wouldn’t betray you, the more people who know this, the bigger the risk. And she’s your best friend, right? Do you really think Lucas doesn’t know that? What if her phone’s being tapped? What if someone’s watching her closely? Have you thought about these possibilities?”
