Chapter 632
Alright. Now I have one too. A black card that can be used anywhere in the world, and its credit is unlimited. I have money now! Linda held the card and kissed it. Then, Chloe came in, still holding the box. "Did I do well, miss?"
"Brilliant." Linda took a pearl necklace from the box. "This is yours."
Chloe was overjoyed that she got a gift. "Thank you, miss."
"There's more from where that came from. Work well, and you will be rewarded."
"Yes, miss!" Chloe pocketed the necklace.
The next day, Linda asked the customer in the salon out, and she even looked into that woman's background. At that moment, the woman was in a restaurant's room. She was wearing everything yellow and was redoing her makeup. Even though she was obviously busy, Linda still went in.
"Long time no see."
The woman turned around, only to feel shocked at the sight of Linda. "You?"
"In the flesh, Miss Yard. Oh, no. You're Mrs. Astley now, aren't you?"
Megan took a deep breath. She never expected Linda to be the one who asked her out. Before this, Selena upheld the end of her bargain and bailed her out, but she was banished from Digton. At the same time, Finneas was bankrupt, so she couldn't rely on him anymore. That didn't mean it was the end for her though. She managed to beguile Jimmy Astley, who was a real estate tycoon in Digton's neighboring city.
Jimmy was a lucky man. He used to be nothing but a poor peasant. His family had a twelve-acre land that was used for farming, but then the city wanted to build an airport on their field, so they received a few million in compensation.
Thanks to that money, Jimmy started investing in a small real estate, then he started finding success in it. At that time, he was just an uneducated upstart though. Eventually, Jimmy married someone and had a son, but his wife died. He was already forty, while Megan was little more than twenty years old. However, he liked her because she was also an undergraduate.
In that period of her life, Megan didn't have anything to look forward to after her incarceration. All she wanted was a quiet life, so she dated Jimmy. Luckily, Jimmy loved her and provided for her. This time, she came to the city with him since he bad a business negotiation going on, but she never thought she'd bump into Linda. God knew how panicked she was when she saw the
text the night before.
"What do you want?" Megan was worried Linda might do something outrageous. After all, she used to be Selena's assistant, so she knew a lot about Megan.
"Don't worry. I'm here to talk about Selena. You hate her too, don't you? I heard prison hasn't been kind to you. Don't you want revenge?"
Megan stared at her in disbelief.
"Oh, sorry. Guess I should tell you this. It's over between me and Selena. She's a b*tch. I got kicked off after all I did for her. And she even..." Linda pulled her skirt up, revealing the bullet scar on her leg-the one made by Hades.
"Selena did this?"
"Who else? I almost died, so I have to get back at her." The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If Linda wanted Megan to be her ally, she had to prove that they had the same experience.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
"I heard that Jimmy's son is a tough nut to crack. You've been suffering, haven't you? Jimmy's mother always trips you up, and their relatives wouldn't stop insulting you because you're a poor girl."
