Chapter 196 Blackmall Margaret was getting anxious.
It had been over three hours since the police took Wynter away. Margaret had no idea what was going on at the police station right now.
She had tried pulling sstrings, but even her connections told her that these matters were complicated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWanda was clever in choosing the right tto see Margaret. She had deliberately shown up when Wolf wasn't around. For sreason, the little boy irked her.
Looking composed, Wanda held her phone up in front of Margaret and scrolled through the page she had opened.
which "See all the backlash you and Wynter are receiving online, Mom? Wynter's case will likely drag on for a while. After all, she assaulted an officer on duty." She clicked into one of the comments. "I think this viewer said it best: 'How dare a poor bumpkin who got famous through the inteassault an officer on duty? She deserves to be arrested and severely punished!"" Margaret had seen that comment and the many others that flooded her account-each of them was worse than the last.
She wasn't worried about her reputation. Instead, she feared that her granddaughter's life would be ruined after this.
Wanda stared at Margaret. She suddenly grabbed her purse and made to leave. "Fine, don't sign the transfer agreement. I wouldn't waste my time, to help Wynter if the live-streaming channel wasn't worth something." "I won't mind telling you that the Yates are the only ones in Southdale who would handle this matter." She sneered arrogantly as she pointed out, “No one else would want to get caught up in a scandal this big. With that, she took the agreement and eyed Margaret snidely. "You could wait until the dust settles and Wynter goes to jail. By then, I wouldn't help you even if you begged." Margaret knew Wanda was taking advantage of their distress. However, Wynter's future was at stake here. "Promise me," Margaret demanded as she looked up at Wanda gravely. “That you will get Wynter out of there with a clean record.
"If not, I will do whatever it takes to make you and your family pay!" Wanda laughed and said, "You know what the Yates family can do. Getting someone out of detention is a piece of cake." This whole thing was a ruse between her and Adam. She could see to end the case however she liked.
"Givethe contract," Margaret said quietly. If her shaking hands were any indication, agreeing to Wanda's demands hurt her more than she would let on.
Susan, who had been watching from the side, hurriedly stopped Margaret. "Don't sign it, Mrs. Yates Senior! "You can't sign over the live-streaming channel for a mere dollar! That's daylight robbery!" One didn't have to be internet-savvy to know how preposterous the agreement was. To offer a dollar for a live- streaming channel as famous as Empathy Clinic was underhanded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSusan was so angry she could have passed out.
Wanda gave Susan a cursory glance. "You don't get to have a say in qun family affairs, Aunt Susan. Getting someone out of the police station is going to costtoo. "If you're so noble, why don't you call up your family and see if they could help?" "You..." Susan was fuming and wanted to slam the wooden bucket she was holding into Wanda's head.
Wanda was prim and proper as she fanned the scent that drifted past her m nose. "Please don't cnear me, Aunt Susan. Mom, just sign the agreement already. I haven't got the tto sit around here." Margaret's eyes were red as she gripped onto the pen.
Susan interjected pleadingly, "Mrs. Yates Senior, think about this carefully. It was no easy feat setting up this live-streaming channel.
"You and Wynter put in so much work for the channel to gain traction. If you sign it over to Wanda of you now, Wynter Will be unhappy even if she were released." "Wynter has university entrance exams coming up," Margaret said hoarsely. "She can't have a criminal case against her..."
