Chapter 2548

Clara's words were harsh, criticizing Mara to no end, and Mara’s face had already darkened on theother end of the phone.

“You make it sound so easy, just lure him away from that tramp for a minute or two? Do you knowhow many bodyguards are watching? After that old woman's incident at his house last time, they'reall gawking at me! It's already difficult to do this at this critical moment. And if you don't succeed, I'llbe the suspect again. Isn't that too big of a price for me to pay?”

“If you hadn't come to me to collaborate, I wouldn't have even considered you. Since you're sohesitant, perhaps I'm better off doing it alone,” Clara was beyond annoyed. She was determined tomake Ivy ruined in no time. But Mara actually told her that now was not the best time to act. Wasn'tthis simply pouring cold water on her?

“I told you long ago that to achieve great things, you must be patient. But you were the onesrushing, insisting on acting immediately. Did I ever agree?”

Clara's mood was already bad, having been served with the lawyer's letter and scolded by Mara. Herface swelled red, and her skinny frame appeared ever more trembling and weak, resembling afemale ghost.

"She already sent me a lawyer's letter, and you're not the one being sued, so of course, you're notworried. What if I go in again, who's going to be your scapegoat then?”

Clara spoke coldly, and Mara was silent.

Both of them were well aware that Mara insisted on cooperating with her because she could useClara as a scapegoat in case anything went wrong. However, Clara didn't care about this or theconsequences she just wanted to destroy Ivy.

“Fine, I'll leave it at that. If you can't do it, just back out.” Clara was about to hang up the phonewhen Mara suddenly called out, “Wait, let me think about it.”

"What more is there to think about? By the time you're done contemplating, her fan meeting willhave taken place, the movie promotional tour will have started, and she'll be thriving. What aboutyou? You've got no prospects, no man — don't you have any sense at all? All of this was supposed tobe mine! It was her — Ivy — who snatched everything away from me. If it wasn't for her, would I bethe pathetic mess I am now?”

Mara despised Ivy more than anything. Ivy intervened and ruined her years-long relationship withBalfour. Her years of hard work and restraint turned into a joke.

“My hatred for her is as strong if not stronger than yours! Just wait for me to come up with a reasonto separate them.”

“Fine, I'm waiting for your good news. But, Ms. Lewis, please don't make me wait too long. I'mrunning out of time.”

[Rumors about actress Ivy's life before fame — She had a secret backer, which allowed her to rise tothe top. Do you know who the man behind her is? PS: It's not the current one]

The uglier Clara's words were, the more attention the post received. It wasn't until Clara sawnumerous netizens discussing and commenting on the matter that she vented half her resentment.What if she got sued again? At least these netizens would doubt Ivy.

Even if Clara lost the lawsuit, they would never trust Ivy again because, once suspicion takes root, itdoesn't go away.

“Ivy, after everything you're still at my mercy, aren't you?”
