Chapter 2009 Success
Kaylee watched as Julia downed her drink in one gulp. The madness in her eyes was almost impossible to
hide.
As soon as Julia finished drinking, she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her, and her head was heavy with
sleepiness. So, she let Kaylee leave.
Kaylee did not say much and left obediently.
However, the moment she closed the room door, the corners of her mouth that had been suppressed all along
could not help but lift into a smile.

Kaylee pulled out her phone and sent a message of success to the mysterious person. What followed was a quiet

In the room, Julia felt a wave of turmoil. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.
All she could see before her were those unpleasant things from the past.
In particular, the disappearances of Elisa and Gareth. They kept unfolding before her very eyes.
It seemed as though she was determined to turn all the difficult things in her life around.
She felt an even more intense headache as if her head was about to explode.
“Ah— uh—” Julia seemed to be wrestling with something and felt extremely uncomfortable. Sweat trickled down her
neck.
Normally, such a commotion would have already awakened the people downstairs.
But, as it happened, Kaylee made sure that no one was on guard that day.
So, Julia could only moan to herself like this for nearly half an hour.
In the end, it seemed her mind was being controlled.
Julia curled up the corners of her mouth and fell asleep in a beautiful dream.
Meanwhile, in her own room, Kaylee seemed to sense something, and a smile tugged at the corner of her lips.
Now, what will Elisa, with her great powers and extraordinary wisdom, do?
After spending a few days at home with Bella, Elisa took Rachel to visit the other party’s company on the third day.

someone else? There was no need to trouble yourself.”
“Sign a contract?” Elisa appeared as if she had heard some kind of joke.
Terence’s face turned somewhat unpleasant for a moment. “So, if you’re not here to sign the contract, what
exactly are you here for?”
Elisa curved her lips. “Good question.”
The unspoken understanding between the two, honed over many years, meant they knew exactly what to do

Rachel handed over a letter of demand.
Upon picking it up for a look, Terence’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
“What do you mean by this?”
Elisa casually tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and said nonchalantly, “What do I mean? I should be
asking what your company means by this. Is it a rule to discuss contracts over drinks? Can’t we finalize a contract
without going to a bar or a hotel? So, Mr. Matthams, this is what you’re really like. Despite your age, you still harbor
such indecent thoughts!”
Terence’s face turned from pale to green as he was being lectured.
He was well aware of Brian’s actions. All these years, without his tacit approval and turning a blind eye. there was
no way Brian could have been able to show off his power and get away with it.
He knew everything, but he just chose to act as if it was none of his business unless it concerned him.
Perhaps, to him, there was nothing wrong with his good buddy desiring a woman or two.
