Oliver’s head was filled with sweat. He knelt on the ground and begged for forgiveness.
Josiah had always been someone who acted according to his heart. It was not that he could not do
something like commit murder or set a place on fire. Given the Bayers’ power, even if Josiah killed him,
it would only be one more missing person in this world, and the Bayers would suppress the incident
very soon.
As for Matthew…
He would stop at nothing as long as he was safe. There was a possibility that he would turn against
him and make him his scapegoat.
After all, Matthew had to keep a positive image in front of his father.
Oliver bit his lips and knocked his head on the floor hard. A wound appeared on his forehead, and
blood was jutting out of it.
“Please let me go, Mr. Bayer! I… I promise that I’ll do everything for you in the future without any

“Then what about your Mr. Hamerton?” Josiah asked as he sat at the center with his leg crossed.
“I… I promise!” Oliver’s face was pale. “I won’t tell Matthew anything!”
“Do you think I’ll believe you?” Josiah threw the dagger and the gun to the side. “But if you swear your
allegiance to me, I can consider forgiving you.”
“What is your order, Mr. Bayer?”
“You know Yelena, right?” Josiah grinned.
Marcus had not gotten the chance to punish Yelena for locking Cordelia up in a basement with rats.
After all, as the saying went, “Fighting evil with evil.”
He was going to make Oliver get rid of Yelena. This way, both of them would be busy, and they
wouldn’t come to disturb Marcus and Cordelia anymore.
Oliver gulped hard and asked softly, “You… You want me to get rid of Yelena?”
“Mr. Jones, if you’re willing to work for me and Z, we won’t treat you badly.
“But you need to remember one thing. If you give even the slightest string of information about us to
Matthew… Hah, if Z can let you go, he can get rid of you as well. Understand?”
Several days later, the news of Yelena getting cheated spread throughout the entire business circle in
Jangasas.
Even the people in Bowfest had heard about it.
No matter where Cordelia went, she would hear people laughing at Yelena.
Initially, she was the one who served the customer, but Yelena snatched him away from her.
Two days ago…
Cordelia and Yelena appeared on the top floor of a building to visit a customer.
Cordelia was not very familiar with the customer. She just knew from the information given to her by
David that Mr. Rudd came from Asperia. He came here to do business. David wanted her to pay a visit
to him, so she came here.
She did not expect to run into Yelena at the front door.

“Are you here to visit Mr. Rudd too?” Yelena asked, her voice filled with mockery.
Whenever Cordelia recalled how Yelena locked her up in the basement, she felt a chill down her spine
and just did not want to talk to her.
“I’ll make it very clear first. Mr. Rudd is going to sign the contract with me!” Yelena smiled triumphantly.
“The financial status of the Jenners is much stronger than that little company of yours.”
“This kind of thing heavily depends on fate,” Cordelia replied calmly. “Anything is bound to happen
before the client signs the contract!”
Yelena glared at her, and then Mr. Rudd came out. Yelena hastily went forward and hit Cordelia in her
stomach with her elbow.
Cordelia yelped out in pain, and before she knew anything, Yelena stepped on her feet, causing her to
lose her balance and fall to the floor in front of everyone.
When she lifted her head, she saw that Mr. Rudd was looking at her like a clown.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Rudd!” Yelena went forward. “She’s my sister. Her mother has a mental illness, so
there’s a loose screw in her head!”
