Tina gritted her teeth and spat, “You don’t know how much the Barton family has suffered as a result.

James found out that Jayla was in communication with the Barton family before the incident at the gym.

He just had a big quarrel with me and withdrew a few investments!”

My heart skipped a beat at this piece of news.

I asked nervously, “Did

Jayla tell Patrick that it was us who instigate her?”

“Of course not,” replied Tina crossly.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

“The Barton family is powerful.

Several lost investments isn’t that big a deal, right?”

Tina looked at me as though I was an idiot.

“You know nothing.

Many of my family’s businesses have been closed down by the former Alpha, and now, we couldn’t afford any mistakes.

James was humiliated, so now he’s now venting his anger on the Barton family!”

I had to resist the urge to roll my eyes in front of Tina.

Truth be told, I didn’t give a damn about the Barton family’s businesses.

I was more worried about Jayla, since she could implicate us.

“I just don’t understand.

Why didn’t Jayla tell on us?” I asked.

I doubted Jayla was righteous enough to protect us.

Tina sneered, “It’s not that she doesn’t want to, but that she can’t.

Caleb barred the Lee family from visiting her in prison, so she hasn’t had the chance to tell her family that we were the ones who instigated her.

I’ve also asked the prison guard to warn Jayla not to speak the truth.

Otherwise, she’ll die a miserable death.

I suddenly felt enlightened.

“So Jayla’s not a threat for now?”

However, Tina showed a strange expression.

“I’m not sure.

She seems to have gone crazy.

The prison guard said that she’s been demanding to see

Debra and Caleb.

She wants to talk to them face to face.

“What? Why?”

Tina shook her head, looking a little uneasy.

“No idea.

But I think we have to get rid of Jayla now before she tells on us.

The Barton family can’t afford yet another scandal.

Even if she doesn’t tell on us now, she’s still a ticking time bomb.

At this, I was a little hesitant.

I knew that Tina was itching to have Jayla assassinated.

But in my eyes, it would be such a pity to lose a tool like Jayla.

I thought for a while and said, ““Jayla’s crime is all over the news.

If she dies mysteriously, they’ll suspect she was murdered, and if they trace the murder back to us…”

“Then what do you think we should do?” Tina snapped unhappily.

I didn’t answer immediately but fell into deep thought.

Indeed, what should we do?

Suddenly, a thought occurred to me!
