Chapter 1247
Her entire body shaking, Cynthia said, "How did you know about what happened in the ladies?"
Yerick raised a hand again, poised to slap her once more.
Cynthia buried her head in her hands. "Since you already know about it, why...why did you ask me?"
Yerick grabbed her head and yanked her head upward.
"Ahh!" Cynthia shrieked. "Let me go!"
"Cynthia Zeller, you're nothing but my slave. Don't forget your identity. Don't think that just because others call you President Zeller, you're a master in your own right. I was the one who gave you that status. If it weren't for me, you'd still be begging for scraps by Theodore's side. How could you possibly be the powerful woman that you are today?"
Cynthia's skin crawled at his words. "We're partners, aren't we? I'm not your slave."
"Partners? Haha..." Yerick chuckled. "Are you even fit to be my partner?"
He flung her head away. "Cynthia Zeller, know clearly where you stand. If you dare lie to me again, I'll kill you. But I'll first tear your reputation to shreds before killing you. You've done so many wicked things that Theodore doesn't know about yet. You two split amicably and you're still the kind Cynthia in his eyes. And yet, this kind Cynthia is still finding ways to crawl back to him."
Cynthia had to admit that this man was sharp enough to see through her. She gritted her teeth and said, "I...I got it."noveldrama
"Rosalie is still of use to me. If she dies now, my plans will be disrupted." Yerick grabbed Cynthia's face again. "Cynthia, I have something I need you to do."
"What is it?" Cynthia asked.
"Didn't you film a video in the hospital before?" he asked.
Cynthia's eyes widened. How did he even know that? Was he omnipresent?
A wicked smile stretched across Yerick's face. "It's time to let Theodore know about the video."
"Let him know?" Cynthia said, "You mean, I have to send the entire video to Theo?"
"That's right."
"But I can't let Theo know I'm the sender! Otherwise, he might wonder why I didn't send him this video when I had it, and only sent it to him now..."
"Shut up!" Yerick yelled, cutting her
et
off. "Is that all you're worried about? Are you really going to hide this video from him for your entire life after taking the effort to film it? Why else would you secretly film that in the first place?"
Cynthia lowered her head. "I...I've got to find a suitable time."
"The suitable time is almost here. Wait for my cue.
With that, Yerick opened the door and stepped out of the car.
Cynthia panted, sweat beading her brow. This man was truly frightening.
He wasn't her brother at all. He was lying!
Which brother would treat his sister like this? He was a madman, and even his identity was a farce. Until now, she still had no clue of his true identity.
Rosalie was pushing a shopping cart around a supermarket, with Steve sitting in the cart as she looked through brands of formula milk.
The supermarket was so huge, it
was like a maze. Rosalie walked in
circles many times before finally finding the exit. However, she had a nagging feeling that something was wrong. No matter which lane she found herself in, she could always see a man.
She initially thought that she must be imagining things, but when she pushed the shopping cart to the household products section, she could see the man's reflection in a mirror.
He was wearing a baseball cap, staring straight at her.
