Chapter 472

Knowing Shelia’s nature, it was improbable for her to reconnect with this man.

She wished to sever all ties with him completely.

Setting down her cup, Lindsey feigned a helpless sigh.

“I conveyed your message to Shelia.

But she mentioned she’s on the brink of marrying into a wealthy family and wants no association with someone like you.

She also warned that if you persist in searching for her, she’ll find a way to ensure you’re out of her life for good.

”

Upon hearing Lindsey’s words, the man’s eyes flared with a fiery rage.

“What did you say? How could someone like her marry into wealth?”

Lindsey affirmed firmly, “She also insisted she never had any intimate relations with you.

She remains a virgin.

”

“Bullshit!” the man cursed furiously.

“I have leverage against her.

If she pushes me too far, I’ll expose everything.

She won’t Like that either.

”

The man’s motive behind seeking Shelia was rooted in his assumption that she, having attained some level of stardom through an online drama, had amassed considerable wealth.

Recently strapped for cash, he intended to request money from Shelia.

However, his attempts to approach her were futile.

Instead, he incurred expenses on travel and accommodation, wasting his resources in vain pursuit.

His frustration surged.

As Lindsey observed, her eyes subtly narrowed, a faint smile gracing her lips.

Her slender fingers traced the mug’s handle as she casually remarked, “You came to her seeking money, right? What if I offered to pay for whatever information you have on her? Wouldn’t that be simpler for you?”

The man scowled deeply.

“What do you need that information for?”

“I’m proposing a deal.

As for my intentions, you need not concern yourself.

But rest assured, I won’t disclose the source,” Lindsey replied coolly.

Lindsey maintained her meaningful smile as she calmly spoke, “You’re free to decline this deal.

But considering Shelia’s disposition, she won’t seek you out.

Once she enters into this affluent family, your chances of reaching her will diminish.

Stirring trouble might lead to dire consequences, especially when a powerful family decides to handle a commoner; it’s as effortless as crushing an ant.

”

She continued, her tone unwavering, “Even if you decide to expose her online, she could easily pay someone to erase all traces.

Conversely, revealing what you possess might result in her taking drastic measures to silence you… perhaps even resorting to killing you.

”

Lindsey’s clear, astute eyes fixed on the man, conveying her message without a hint of hesitation.

Her words sent a shiver down the man’s spine.

His prior experience of being taken to the police station fueled his apprehensions.

During Shelia’s college days, she harbored disdain for poverty and exhibited a robust sense of vanity.

If she discovered he possessed damaging information about her, she’d go to great lengths to preserve her image and ensure a smooth marriage into a wealthy family.

At that point, he would be in danger.

His sole aim was monetary gain without getting entangled with Shelia.

As long as he could exchange the information he had for money, the identity of the buyer mattered Little.

The man swiftly reached a decision.

He looked at Lindsey and conceded, “Fine, make me an offer.

If the price is right, I’ll sell it to you.

”

After a long day at work, Lindsey returned home to find Domenic hadn’t yet arrived.

She settled onto the couch and dialed Shelia’s number.
