Shelia nodded obediently, but beneath herpliance, resentment brewed.


    “Who on earth dares to do this to me? I must uncover the truth and seek revenge!”N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    Kendra’s expression turned grave.


    She chose not to share her suspicions with Shelia.


    Instead, she gently patted her head and said, “I’ll figure this out.


    Just focus on making Jacob happy and securing an engagement soon.


    I’ll handle everything else.


    ”


    With a guilty conscience, Shelia coughed and leaned against Kendra, “I know.


    Mom.


    Don’t worry.


    ”


    After a brief moment of affection with Kendra, Shelia returned to her room to rest.


    When there was no one else at night, Kendra made a call.


    “Hello, it’s me.


    Did you see what happened to Shelia? She was set up, and the public opinion is strongly against her now.


    If this gets out, it will not only harm Shelia’s prospects but also have repercussions for you… I know what I need to do, but I need your help to contain this situation…”


    After hanging up the phone, Kendra stood up and was about to return to her room when her phone rang again.


    Upon seeing the caller ID, Kendra’s expression soured.


    It was Chayce calling.


    She paused for a moment and eventually picked up.


    “Kendra, seems like you’re enjoying lifetely.


    Have you forgotten about me?” Chayce’s voice, both sly and raspy, emanated from the phone.


    Moving to the balcony for privacy, Kendra whispered into the phone, “If you’ve got something to say, make it quick.


    ”


    Chayce got straight to the point and said, “I’m out of cash.


    I need you to send me some.


    ”


    Ever since Lindsey exposed Chayce’s true colors at the engagement party, the news had been circting throughout thepany that he had been involved with many women.


    No one knew who was intentionally spreading it, but it led to his dismissal from thepany.


    Since then, he had struggled to find a job, relying on his dwindling savings.


    He was running low on funds, so he turned his thoughts to Kendra.


    Chayce knew that as long as he had leverage over Kendra, he had ess to a steady flow of money.


    He wasn’t concerned about running out of money at all.


    Kendra swallowed.


    She was acutely aware of Chayce’s intentions.


    Yet, with Benny watching her closely, she found it impossible to secretly send any funds.


    “It’s not that I don’t want to give you money, but Benny suspects the child I’m carrying isn’t his.


    He’s keeping a close watch on me.


    I can’t make any financial moves without him noticing.


    So…”


    “Kendra Stewart! I don’t care about your situation with Benny, but you need to figure out how to get me the money, or else… you know the consequences.


    ”


    Kendra was shocked by Chayce’s harshness.


    Once iming to love her, he now showed no regard for her wellbeing.


    Men were no good.


    Kendra bit her lower lip and uttered through clenched teeth, “Thepany’s recent cash flow has been problematic.


    We really don’t have much money.


    However…”


    A malicious gleam appeared in Kendra’s eyes.


    “You can try to contact Lindsey.


    She has a significant sum of money left to her by her mother.


    It’s not a small amount.
