Chapter 420

“Do you really think that if we can’t find concrete evidence of your crimes, you’ll escape unscathed?”

Cynthia asked her.

With every incident, including Mor’s bribery, Samantha managed to emerge without a hint of guilt. If not

for Cynthia’s decision to connect all the incidents and delve into some old issues, she would have

never suspected Samantha. After all, Samantha had initially struck her as a good-hearted young

woman

Samantha offered a faint smile. “I have been a law-a biding citizen all my life. I cannot afford to wear

the blame Ms. Yates is trying to place on me.”

“What if I bring this matter to Old Man Tanz’s attention? How do you think he would handle it?” Cynthia

asked, making her point very clear.

Some people, even when they knew they were guilty, could not be brought to justice due to a lack of

evidence. From a purely evidentiary perspective, Samantha was nothing more than a bystander.

However, morality and public opinion could pass judgment

In the past, Samantha had a close relationship with Old Man Tanz, but as they grew older, their bood

started to weaken, and their relationship was no longer as strong as it used to be

“If you want to do so, then go. My brother already has his hands full with his own mess, how would he

have the time to bother with your baseless accusations?” Samantha retorted defiantly, her gaze

challenging as she looked at Cynthia.

“I hope you will feel the same way when the time comes.” Cynthia left her with that thought.

Samantha glanced at her, grabbed her bag, and made her way out

“Wait,” Cynthia called her back

“Is there something else you want to say, Ms. Yates?”

‘Stop causing me trouble. Joshua and I are already divorced. If you continue to disregard my warnings

and create havoc, it won’t be as simple as inviting you out for coffee,” Cynthia stated clearly.

Samantha remained silent and left the cafe, getting into her car. Once settled inside, her cool

demeanor and pretense fell away. Her face was a picture of frustration and impatience. Only after she

locked the car and closed the windows did she make a phone call.

“Ms. Tanz, what are your instructions?” A male voice came from the other end.

“Tell them not to contact Mor anymore. He only pretended to betray Cynthia. Also, cancel the

arrangements for tomorrow.” Samantha rubbed her brow, completely taken aback by how events had

unfolded.

There was a moment of silence on the other end as if the caller had not expected things to take such a

tum. However, be complied, “Understood.”

“Have someone investigate Cynthia. I want her entire profile as soon as possible,” Samantha ordered,

feeling an unprecedented level of chaos in her mind.

“Understood.”

As the call ended, Samantha lowered her car window and reclined her seat a bit. Lying there, she

struggled to understand where things had gone wrong when everything had been going so smonthly.

In order to steer suspicion away from herself, Samantha had carefully crafteil an image of a good

person in Cynthia’s eyes. When she happened to encounter Cynthia and Shirley at the mall, she even

deliberately lett Joshua with them, yet… all her efforts were in vain; Cynthia’s suspicions remained.

Even today, when Cynthia had discussed these matters with her, Samantha assumed she was merely

trying to bluff. That was until Cynthia brought up the events of the past.

However, even though her scheme had been exposed, Samantha kept her composure. After all,

nobody knew whether Cynthia had been recording their conversation; if she had, Samantha would be

essentially incriminating herself.

Chapter 420

After leaving the cafe, Cynthia did not retum to her office immediately. Instead, she made a call to

share these revelations with Ellora Ellora had always wanted to express her gratitude to Samantha for

print events but had never found the opportunity. Naturally, Cynthia did not spill everything; she only

spoke about payleen’s car accident and Moe’s bribery case.
