Chapter 548


    "That''s your folks, not my circus, not my monkeys." Arabe nced at Ben. "So, what''s it gonna be,


    Ben? Follow your old boss or stick around and work for me?"


    Ben looked from Arabe to Ynda, weighing his options.


    Ynda shot him a warning look, as if to say, ''Betray me and see what happens.''


    "Stay, and I''ll double your sry."


    At Arabe''s words, Ben quickly changed his tune. "I''ll stay and work for Ms. Bet."


    "Well, aren''t you a flip-flopper?" Ynda was taken aback by the speed of Ben''s change of allegiance.


    One moment he was all respectful to her, the next he was siding with Arabe.


    "Throw her out and anything rted to her. Rece everything they used in this office."


    "Yes, Ms. Bet," Ben said, then politely asked, "Ms. Murphy, could you please gather your


    belongings and leave."


    "Ben, you''re being such a jerk!" Ynda red at him, gritting her teeth. "I treated you well when my


    dad was in charge!"


    "But he never missed a chance to take his anger out on me." Ben rolled up his sleeves to reveal a


    bruised arm. "He''s been losing his temper on me a lottely because his business isn''t doing well. If it


    weren''t for my mortgage and car payments and a family to support, I would have quit already."


    Now, having a new boss and a doubled sry to boot was a good thing for him.


    "You!"


    "This way, please." Ben gestured for her to leave.


    Ynda was livid. She red at Arabe and said, "Don''t get too cocky!"


    Upon hearing this, Arabe raised an eyebrow and said, "Ben, check if she stole anything from my


    office before letting her go."


    "You." Ynda was taken aback by Arabe''s assertiveness.


    "Yes!" Ben made another inviting gesture: "Ms. Murphy, please cooperate and step into the next room."


    "What for? You want to search me? That''s illegal!"


    "We''ll havew enforcement look into it."


    Sitting on the couch, Arabe added casually, "I suspect she may have brought items containing


    "You." Ynda couldn''t believe how overbearing Arabe was being.


    Eventually, Ynda was searched byw enforcement. Her belongings were turned upside down, and


    then she was thrown out of thepany premises, belongings and all.

    Meanwhile, Arabe convened a meeting, confirmed her position, announced thepany''s future


    ns and sry packages, fired a few of Attlee''s people, and then left thepany.


    At the police station.


    Olga was sobbing loudly, iming her innocence one moment and ming everything on Arabe the


    next. She talked until she was blue in the face, but no one paid her any attention.


    The room was small and empty except for a single, wobbly light hanging from the ceiling, an unsettling


    sight.


    Soon, the door was pushed open.


    Olga thought it was Yoli''swyering to her rescue. She got a little excited, but when she looked up,


    it was Arabe and her two associates.


    The sight of Arabe made her panic. She tried to back away but was brought before Arabe by the


    two associates.


    "What are you trying to do? This is a police station! If you dare to mess around,"
