“Find out how Samantha knows the passcode to my apartment!” Tyler snarled.


    “Yes, sir,” Yale replied.


    “Also, change the lock on my door tomorrow. Now that she’s touched it, it’s filthy.”


    Yale paused for a moment, letting Tyler’s instructions sink in.


    “Alright, sir.”


    5 PONUS


    Samantha left Tyler’s apartment, still feeling like something was amiss.


    Was Rachel truly not in Tyler’s apartment? If she really did get help from Tyler<b>, </b>things would only grow moreplicated.


    The thought of Racheling back for revenge made Samantha feel uneasy. Since the day she saw Rachel at the hospital, she had been having nightmares. In her dreams, Rachel’s soul sought her for revenge.


    Samantha raised a hand to wipe her brows, realizing that they were covered in cold sweat. She frowned, her heart racing.


    She had to quickly deal with Rachel, or she’d go mad from the suspense!


    When she rushed to Lewis Enterprise, she found that those who were causing a ruckus had been taken away by security guards


    and the police.


    The police were standing guard at the entrance of thepany to fend against the angry public masses, for fear that more trouble might ensue. They patrolled the area the entire day until office hours were over.


    At the moment, tt was considered safe for Samantha to enter the office.


    The moment she did, however, she could hear her colleagues gossiping in hushed whispers around her.


    “I can’t believe Ms. Judd still dares toe into the office. She’s really fearless!”


    “Exactly! She’s crossed the line this time, implicating thepany and even embezzlingpany funds!”


    “Otherpanies are seekingpensation from us, and the money she lost is just enough to cover thepensation we owe. Would she have to shoulder the me if we fall short of the amount?”


    “That depends on what Mr. Lewis decides.”


    Samantha’s heart raced as she overheard her colleagues‘ conversation. She hurried to the meeting room.


    Inside, the shareholders were up in arms.


    <b>“</b>I’ve already said it back then–it was a bad idea to let Samantha be the director. Just look at what good she has done for thepany over the years!”


    “Compare that to what Rachel has done for thepany before. We were in a crisis<b>, </b>but our business was still thriving!”


    “I knew nothing good coulde out of a decision driven by lust. Things happened the way I thought they would! Rachel was doing a great job, but he just had to insist on getting Samantha, who knew nothing.”


    That woman wrecked Mr. Lewis‘ family and chased Rachel away so she could be Mrs. Lewis, but I heard that she’s unpopr in the city’s high society circles. She wasn’t born in a wealthy family. She’s a far cry from true, well–bred heiresses!”


    “She must think of herself as an ugly duckling who became a swan after marrying into the Lewis family. Is she even worthy?”


    Just then, Samantha’s voice rang in the air.


    “Everyone! Must you be so unforgiving with your words when we’re already in the red? Unlike Ms. Lloyd, who was deaf, my


    hearing is impable!”


    Samantha walked in with her chest puffed, thinking that she could intimidate the shareholders with her confidence.


    Unbeknownst to her, the shareholders had long been displeased with her. If it weren’t for William and his efforts to make them yield to him, they wouldn’t bother paying her the slightest attention.


    “It’s great that you have no problems with your hearing, Ms. Judd. The ounting department has done their calctions, and you’ve chalked up losses totalling one hundred million from your so–called investments. Investments that, might I remind you, neither Mr. Lewis nor us are aware of. Please make up for the loss, or we’ll have to settle it by the book.”
