“Seriously, why are you even calling me? Who gave you the green light to pester me with
this? Is this another sales pitch? Because I’m telling you, I’m not in the market for a car or
a house, and I don’t have kids, so fuck off!”
After unleashing this tirade, Clara hung up with a huff, leaving Leo staring blankly at his
phone.
“What the heck?”
He exchanged a puzzled look with his assistant, not expecting Clara to have such a fiery
temper.
But they needed to get through to her to confirm some details, so Leo steeled himself and
redialed.
This time, though, his own temper was starting to flare up; it had been ages since he had
been on the receiving end of such an earful.

information to discuss with you.”
“Can’t you just spit it out in one go? What do you want? I’ll have you know my time is
precious, okay?”
Leo took a deep breath and continued, “Our firm is preparing to file a lawsuit against you
for
your reckless defamation of our client online, causing severe damage to her reputation.
You will receive a court summons at your address within five days. This is your official
notice.”
After delivering the message, Leo hung up before Clara could ask any questions, cutting
the call short and crisp.
“What? Are you making threats now?!” Clara panicked, shooting up from the bed.
But the call was already disconnected, and all she got was the annoying busy signal from

anyone online?”
As soon as she said it, she remembered that, recently, Ivy was the only person she had
crossed!
Without a second thought, she knew it had to be her, that woman unwilling to let bygones
be bygones.
Clara snorted disdainfully, pacing by the bed. “Ha, I was ready to let you off the hook, but

She didn’t bother reaching out to Leo again.
She had anticipated this moment ever since her rant went live online. Even if Ivy didn’t
come after her, Balfour would not just stand by and watch his woman get slandered.
Clara no longer cared about any of that. She was jobless, hopeless, with nothing left to
lose – what more was there to fear?
All she wanted was to drag that woman down with her before she hit rock bottom herself.
So she dialed a number.
“Hey, is everything set on your end? It’s time to make a move.”
There was hesitation on the other end of the line before the person said, “Are you sure you
want to go through with this now? His family’s had a crisis; he’s bound to have a bunch of
bodyguards around.”
Clara clicked her tongue in irritation. “Aren’t you chummy with that guy? Can’t you even
manage to lure him away from her for a minute or two? If you can’t even do that much,
what good are you to me as a partner?”
