Chapter 2819 "I've never seen anyone more shameless than you, Karen. I'm warning you: if I ever find out you have any contact with Esmond again, I'll tell Dad." Rita warned her before leaving the house.
After watching Rita leave, Karen collapsed onto the railing to steady herself.
'This has to change!' she thought.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRita had already uncovered her past with Esmond. While she had kept it from Vince so far, what if she was in a bad mood one day? She would tell everything to him. Rita absolutely could not stay! 'Or maybe I could let her stay but ensure that she'll never gain her father's trust again!' she thought.
Karen's gaze turned cold. "Sweet, sweet Riya...you brought this upon yourself." Even if she let Rita live, she had a thousand ways to make her wish she was dead.
"Hey, did you get the medicine I asked you to find last time? Have it delivered tothis afternoon. I'll need it soon... Don't ask so many questions. Knowing too much isn't good for you." Karen hung up the phone, then composed herself and returned to her noble demeanor as Missus Russell for the gathering.
Rita had not expected Karen to plot against her like this. If she could turn back time, she would never have so easily believed the words of the so-called informant, which ultimately led to her and Sherman falling into a deadlock.
Later, when Rita found herself alone in her room, she started crying quietly. She was willing to pay any price to turn back time, or at least make Sherman not dislike her so much.
[Rita, cto the Golden Sand Hotel lobby. I have very important information to give you.] One of Rita's informants finally contacted her after half a month.
She replied immediately and excitedly, [Is it about the developer? Have you found any direct evidence? What tshould we meet?] The informant on the other end was cautious. [This afternoon. I'll let you know the exact tlater. It's best if you wait forin the lobby.] Rita held her phone and ecstatically reread the simple, brief message. She wanted so much to tell Sherman that there was progress in the case, but she was not sure if he would want to hear about it.
In the end, the joy of sharing won.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[I'm meeting my informant at the Golden Sand Hotel this afternoon. There might be a breakthrough in the case. I believe Esmond will be apprehended soon! Look forward to my good news.] However, the message seemed to disappear into the void as Sherman did not respond. Rita felt a bit disheartened, but she did not give up. She decided to wait until she had concrete evidence before
approaching Sherman again. She wanted to explain to him face-to-face why she had spoken the way she did why shet last time.
As Rita sat in the hotel lobby, reviewing her notes, a masked man suddenly sat down across from her. She instinctively said, "Excuse me, sir, I'm expecting someone." "I'm here for you, Rita," the man replied.
It took her a moment to realize. "You're Old Sims. What's the information you said you found?" Old Sims looked around the surroundings cautiously. He wanted to make sure it was safe for him to speak.
Rita also becnervous. She looked behind and surveyed them surroundings before saying, "There's no one else here. I've already checked." X
