Mary was floored that Cherry would lie so tantly and nder her in front of everyone. If that''s how she wanted to y it, then she wouldn''t hold back either. Cherry had struck first, so she shouldn''t me her for striking back.


    Cherry was stunned. She never imagined Mary would record their call. If she had known, she never would have called her in the first ce.


    If that recording came out, she was dead meat. Hannah waspletely unhinged


    now.


    "I don''t know what recording you''re talking about. This is the age of high technology; it''s easy to fake a recording. Who knows if you came prepared with a fake audio file to frame me!"


    Cherry said loudly.


    "Hannah is smart. She won''t be fooled by your cheap tricks."


    Hannah, suddenly being praised by Cherry, interjected, "Don''t put me on a pedestal. We''ll know if it''s real or fake once we hear it. And even if audio can be faked, there are ways to detect it. Don''t try to tter me; you haven''t earned that right.”


    Hearing Hannah''s words, Cherry panicked and cried out, "Hannah, we''re family! You can''t possibly believe her, can you? Don''t forget, this is the woman who knew your husband was cheating and helped him hide it. Can you really trust anything a person that malicious says?"


    "Cherry, you''re obviously just scared, that''s why you''re grasping at straws. Real or fake? We''ll know once we listen. Stop wasting our time."


    Just as Mary said this, a terrible thought struck her.


    Those two are family. What if Hannah doesn''t believe my evidence? What if she thinks I''m framing Cherry just to give her a better reason toe after me?


    The thought made her panic, and she quickly added.


    "Hannah, you yourself said there are ways to tell if something is fake. m giving you the recording. You need to find out the truth Dont let me be framed


    "Or if you''re just going to protect her because she''s family... well, I believe in evidence."


    Seeing Mary''s worried expression, Hannah rolled her eyes internally.


    "Don''t worry about that. Unlike you, I operate on evidence. If you have a recording, y it. Stop wasting my time."


    Hannah lowered her gaze, a bold idea forming in her mind.


    She hadn''t nned anything initially, but since Mary was making such a big deal of it why not stir the pot a little? It would be a shame todet their little squabble go to waste


    Reassured by Hannah''s words, Mary finally yed the recording.


    [Mrs. Rosenberg, Hannah has a lot of information that could harm your family. I can help you take care of this problem. Even if I can''t solve it, I I cat give you a heads up before she


    posts anything so you can prepare. Are you interested in working with me? Of course, if you''re not


    interested, just forget I said anything.]
