Chapter 633

“What are you saying? I don’t even know him! Why should I be responsible for anything? And five years ago? That was forever ago! Don’t you think bringing that up now is ridiculous? Besides, who’s going to dig into something from five years back? You’re dreaming if you think the cops would even get involved!”

Yvette had already checked – without hard evidence and after so long had passed, the police wouldn’t reopen the case. There was no way Rachel could trap her with it.

Rachel snorted.

“Ridiculous? You should really talk to a lawyer, Yvette. I’ve got a witness. I had the hospital footage restored. And those transfers you made to Jerry? They’re all sitting right here. Oh, and the list of drugs you bought illegally – would you like to see it?”

Yvette’s face turned pale. “Y–You’re framing me. This is all just a setup so you and that man can threaten me into shutting up about your affair!”

Rachel shook her head. “Even now, you won’t admit the truth. Fine. I don’t need to waste my time. We’ll let the law settle it.”

Yvette, cornered, turned her fury on Jerry instead. Her eyes burned red as she stormed up to him, slamming her fists against his chest.

“Who the hell are you?! Why are you helping her? How much is she paying you?”

Jerry, being a man, didn’t hit her back. He only dodged. The more he backed off, the more aggressive Yvette became, raining blows on him.

Rachel finally snapped. She marched forward and slapped Yvette hard across the face.

“If you want to throw a tantrum, do it outside, not here. What right do you have to hit him? Didn’t you just say you don’t even know him?”

Yvette covered her swollen cheek, trembling all over. Her eyes were filled with rage, like a cornered animal.

“Rachel! How dare you hit me?”

Rachel didn’t back off. “You’re acting like a lunatic and disrupting my work. Why can’t I hit you? Yvette, this is your last chance. If you waste it, you’ll only have yourself to blame.”

She pulled out her phone and started dialing 911.

Suddenly, Yvette laughed like a crazy person.

“Go ahead, call them! If I go down, so does he! Didn’t you say he’s working for you now? Once they see him, he’s finished!”

She turned to Jerry, her tone dripping with mockery.

“See that? After all these years, she’s just been using you! You could’ve walked away, but instead you let her drag you straight into the fire!”

Jerry’s voice was steady and unwavering. “No matter what Rachel decides, I trust her.”

Yvette frowned in disbelief when she heard what Jerry said. She shook her head, a sarcastic expression on her face.

“You’re so dumb! How could anyone be as stupid as you?”

Just then, two hotel staff – a security guard and the manager – hurried over.

“Excuse me, is there a problem here?”

Rachel turned to face them. The timing was perfect.

“Yes, there is. These two barged into my room without permission, disrupting my work. Is this what passes for hotel security here? Ignoring guest safety? Or is your hotel planning on shutting down soon?”
