“I don’t see any benefits. Regardless of whether I succeed or fail, it will be a crime,” Michelle replied calmly, watching Cynthia
and the others gradually leave her sight.
The other person remained silent.
Michelle continued, “You should know the Yates family’s connections. I can’t afford to provoke them.”
Michelle was not naive. She had not spent the past two years in the Yates family for nothing. Besides their high standing in the
business world, their network of connections was even more formidable. Not to mention the families like the Cyrus family, who
had good relations with the Yates family. Even considering Cynthia’s personal abilities, Michelle did not dare to mess with her.
Cynthia was not someone easy to bully.
The person on the other side spoke again, “Don’t you know my background? No matter how powerful the Yates family is in the
business world, my background is enough to crush her. Even wealthy people can’t do anything in the face of real power.”
Michelle hesitated. The background of the Tanz family was indeed special.
The person on the other end made a promise, speaking in an unhurried tone, “As long as we work together, I can assure you
that you’ll be safe after you help me get rid of Cynthia. Didn’t you and your mom’s status change because of Cynthia’s return?”
Michelle’s hand holding the phone tightened.
After a long while, Michelle finally asked, “Can you really ensure my safety?”
“Yes. The Tanz family’s reputation alone should tell you everything,” the other person promised.
“I’ll consider it.” Michelle hesitated.
Jonathan had already been good to her and her mother, but her father was about to be released from prison, and once they lost
their protection, he would surely come to cause trouble for her.
Even though Michelle’s parents were divorced and her father had no reason to find her, she was already an adult... If he asked
for financial support from her, Michelle would not be able to reject him.
“I’ll give you half a month to think it over. If you agree to cooperate, don’t choose to take action when Matthew is around.”
Samantha, who was currently abroad, hated Cynthia to her care, and she knew Matthew could help Cynthia deal with any
sudden danger. She could only drag Cynthia down with her since she had been pushed to this point.
Michelle did not answer and hung up the phone.
On her way back home, she felt somewhat lost.
Mandy noticed Michelle was not in a good state and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
“Michelle.”
Michelle stopped in her tracks, feeling the emptiness of the large villa. Then, she looked around and asked, “Mom, if there was
an opportunity for you to have the backing of the Tanz family, but it came at a great cost, would you agree?”
“The Tanzfamily?
“Yes.’
“The formidable Tanz family?” Mandy seemed to see hope.
“Yes.” Michelle’s emotions had undergone a tremendous change during this time. “As long as we help then kill someone, they
will protect us for a lifetime, and there won’t be any criminal record; they will take care of it.”
“Who?” Mandy asked..
Michelle’s grip tightened, her voice slightly hoa rse as she said, “Cynthia ”
“Why not? If it weren’t for Cynthia, I would have married into the Yates family by now, and you would be the heir of the Yates
Group too ” Mandy had lost her usual composure; just hearing Cynthia’s name made her think of the lost game,
