Chapter 749 Finn on the Call
That weird feeling was back in Imogen’s chest, rising like bile.
She passed the phone back to Tess<b>, </b>clearly pissed.
“Also, if some sugar daddy really does manage to keep her, I wish that person was me.”
Finn’s words stopped both women cold.
Even Tess froze for a second.
What did he just say? Tess furrowed her brow. “I’m hanging up.”
She didn’t even wait for a response. She just ended the call.
Her heart was pounding, but she hid it well.
Then she turned to Imogen. “Well? Got anything else to say?”
Imogen looked pale. Her lips twisted into a bitter line, but she said nothing.
Wasn’t Finn the richest man in Aetheris? Why did he act like such a simp around Tess?
She red at Tess with burning eyes.
What the hell was going on with hertely?
How’d she still have that man wrapped around her finger even after the divorce?
“I’m done here!”
She knew she wasn’t going to win. Face dark, Imogen spun around to leave.
Tess moved fast, yanking her cor from behind.
Imogen tried to shake her off, but it was like a steel grip locked onto her. She couldn’t budge.
She spun back around, furious. “You already made the call! What else do you want?”
Tess blinked, her face all innocent. “Weren’t you the one who wanted to call him? Funny how I’m the one being med.”
Imogen choked, her neck straining as she screamed, “What do you want then?!”
“I want an apology. Or I’ll send you back inside. Looks like rehab didn’t work too well the first time,” Tess said.
Felicity chuckled but didn’t say a word.
Imogen’s face turned pitch ck.
Go back to jail? No way! She’d barely survived in there. After Tess left, she became the lowest of the low.
Her fists clenched with rage, but she had no choice. She bowed her head. “I was wrong.”

“What exactly did you do wrong?” Felicity snapped.

Imogen looked like she was about to puke blood. Her voice trembled as she grit her teeth. “I shouldn’t have made stuff up. I’m sorry.”
Tess smirked. “What was that? I didn’t hear you.”
Imogen stared at the ground. Her palm curled so tight, it felt like she was crushing Tess’s face in her hand.
She forced out a smile. “I’m sorry, Tess. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have made stuff up.“”
“Good! Owning up to your mistakes is the first step to being a decent person.”
Tess pped lightly in approval.
Imogen finally stood up, but her legs gave out a little. She felt drained.
She’d been counting the days to her release, only to walk straight into Tess‘ trap.
She wanted to scream. But with Felicity watching her like a hawk, she could only fake a smile.
“You look pretty sincere. Alright then. I’ll forgive you.”
Tess waved her off like she was dismissing a servant.
Imogen breathed a quiet sigh of relief and turned away. She hadn’t gone more than two steps when her knees buckled and she facented.
Her whole face turned red with shame. She scrambled up, using her arms to push off the pavement. Knowing Tess was behind her watching made it a thousand times worse.
She got up, limping and nearly tripping again as she ran off.
Felicity burst outughing.
Imogen heard her and picked up speed. The second she hit the curb, she tripped again and hit the ground hard.
Felicity <i>was </i>doubled over now, wheezing withughter. Tess gently reached out to steady her.
“You don’t mind I said she should go back to prison for a bit, right?”
Tess’s mocking tone vanished. She looked at Felicity with real warmth.
Felicity shrugged. “It’s not like I have that kind of power. I just yed along to help you spook her.”
They <i>looked </i>at each other and cracked up at the same time.
“But hey, are you still happy working as a guard? If not,e work for me.”
Tess brought it up casually.
Herpany had an opening for Head of Security. It sounded boring, but if Felicity took it, she’d make sure the pay was top–tier.
Felicity looked surprised. “Wait, for real?<b>” </b>

She scratched her head, embarrassed. “I’m not the sharpest, but being a prison guard was something I really loved. My mom always said it was bad for marriage though…”
“Thene work for me. All you’d have to do is manage the team.” Tess smiled and gave her an encouraging nod.
“Alright! Actually, I’m off this afternoon. Can I stop by your office to check it out?”
Felicity looked up, eyes full of hope.
“Of course.”
Mars Legal.
Felicity stood frozen.
“This is your office? It’s massive. It’s gorgeous!”
