NovelEnglishChapter 922 Sidney glanced at his phone-it was Fawn.
Since he'd turned her down last time, she hadn't contacted him.
Why was she suddenly calling now? "Hello, Miss Powell," he answered, keeping his tone polite.
Fawn's voice was serious. "Where are you right now?" Sidney asked, "Is there something you need, Miss Powell?" "There is. It's important!" Fawn's voice grew sharper. "Your former boss, she's not as innocent as she seems. I saw her last night checking into a hotel with an old man. Sidney, don't let her fool you!" Sidney's brow furrowed immediately.
"Do you have proof, Miss Powell?" "I saw it with my own eyes! How about this-I'll send you the location. Csee for yourself, and you'll know I'm not lying." Sidney responded, "Alright, send it over." Last night, Maria had been with him the entire time.
And before he showed up, there had been an old man in that room.

And now, this call from Fawn... It was hard not to suspect she was involved.
Fawn continued, "I'll send it now. Cquickly." She hung up right after, and moments later, his phone buzzed with a text.
It was the exact hotel they were in-complete with the room number.
Sidney's expression darkened further.
Maria emerged from the bathroom, catching sight of his troubled look.
"What's wrong?" she asked, puzzled.
Sidney hesitated before explaining everything to her.
"Tch!" Maria scoffed, a cold smirk playing on her lips. "It's clear now who setup. I'm sure you've figured it out too." She walked over, taking his phone and glancing at the message.
After thinking for a moment, she typed out a reply and sent it.
Sidney watched her actions silently, not stopping her.
Maria sat on the couch, her expression calm.
"Wait for it," she said. "She'll be here soon." Sure enough, about half an hour later, there was a knock on the door.
Maria glanced at Sidney, gesturing toward the door with her chin. "Go on, open it." Sidney, now fully dressed, walked over and opened the door.

The room was a mess-clothes scattered across the carpet, hinting at exactly what had happened the night before.
How could this be? Last night, wasn't Maria supposed to be with that disgusting old man? Why was Sidney here instead? Unable to hold back her frustration, Fawn blurted out, "Why are you here?" Sidney looked at her with a mixture of disappointment and confusion. "Why did you do this?" "What?" Fawn was taken aback, not expecting the question.
Maria stood up and walked over to her.
Without warning, she slapped Fawn across the face.
Fawn screamed, clutching her cheek in disbelief. "How dare you hit me?" Maria calmly slapped her again. "I did hit you. What are you going to do about it?"
Fawn's face stung with pain, her expression now a mixt mixture of shock and anger Her eyes burned with hatred as she glared at Maria.
Maria's voice was cold. "It seems your parents were right. Someone! like yours only fit to be used for a transaction, not worthy of real love." swr
"I'll make you pay!" Fawn screamed, her composure completely shattered The thought of her plan failing, and the fact that she would now be forced to marry that old man filled her with despair. She felt like her entire life had been tuined. With a cry, she lunged at Maria.
Maria frowned, stepping back a couple of paces.
Before Fawn could reach her, Sidney swiftly grabbed her wrist, stopping her in her tracks.
