""Ms. Yeats." There was a brief moment of silence on the other end of the line before the person asked, "How did you know it was me? "Because I'm going through the sagony as you are.

"Tell me, how can we eliminate the evidence that Valeria possesses?" She finally confessed. His smile revealed his cunning plan. "Act like you're searching for Valeria to apologize and convince her not to release the evidence. I'll coincidentally appear, supposedly discussing work with her.

We can't let her expose that evidence, or everything will be lost," she declared urgently.
"Alright. Just givea heads up before you leave," Keith agreed Upon ending the call, Keith reviewed the recorded conversation and subsequently made his way to his study. The next day, early morning.
