Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1508

After the woman saw the confused look on Brittany's face, she continued, "I remember that once, Kai eb corrupted a lot from the company. It was then he looked for another two mistresses. You should not have known. Kai eb gifted them a car and a house. They were really spoilt!"

Brittany gasped. "How could he corrupt so much in one go?"

The woman glanced at her. "From your accent, are you from Northville?"

Brittany nodded.

The woman went on to say, "Then you should have read the news? About the top construction company in Northville, Apex. Didn't their project collapse a few months ago?"

Brittany responded weakly and her face turned slightly pale. Because Daniel was the one in charge of the project.

The woman did not notice Brittany's strange respond. She continued on her own, "Kaleb told me personally that before the building collapsed, this project had incurred a lot of corruption. And they were mainly from the construction material cost. I dare you not to believe that as the head of construction industry in Northville, Apex's performance was even incomparable with other ordinary companies. The materials used are shockingly low in quality."

Brittany touched her ears awkwardly and said, "Well, I've heard a little about it. But I don't know as much about it as you do."

Being praised, the woman was ready to reveal everything she knew. "Kaleb got along well with the previous director, so he managed to obtain more fraud money. Unfortunately, the accident happened and the company was chased after by the bank for debts. Kaleb actually blamed it on the previous director, while he himself was left out completely."

Brittany shouted angrily, "What?!"

The woman was shocked. "Why are you so pissed? He told me all this when he was drunk. It has nothing to do with me."

Brittany took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. Then she explained in a low voice, "I, I know less about such things so I'm shocked easily. I'm sorry to have scared you."

The woman patted her chest lightly. Seeing how submissive Brittany was, she no longer bothered to argue with her. "All right, all right. I had the same reaction when Kaleb told me these. Anyway, business is like a battlefield, full of lies and schemes."

Brittany nodded as if she had been taught a lesson and asked, "Well, do you have any evidence of those you've said?"

"Yes." The woman's answer was still the same.

"Then, how much are you going to ask Kaleb for?" Brittany asked anxiously.

"I've been with him for five years. He should at least give me this much."

The woman said as she stretched out six fingers. It seemed that she could still hardly get over the house that had been sold.

Brittany was stunned. Six hundred thousand was not a small amount of money.

However, Brittany was so tempted by the evidence the woman claimed to have. If she truly had it, Kaleb would have no choice but to obey her orders.

At the thought of this, Brittany felt hopeful. She suddenly grabbed the woman's hand and said excitedly, "I have a presumptuous request! Can I say it?"

The woman was a little stunned by Brittany's sudden enthusiasm. However, she had just known Brittany and had no relationship with her. So she broke free from Brittany's hand unnoticeably and said, "Tell me about it first."

Brittany was a liar, so she could easily make up things once she made up her mind. "Well, I'll be honest with you. Actually... I don't like Kaleb's character either."

The woman's eyes twitched slightly, and they looked a bit sharp. "Then why are you still with him?"

"You've misunderstood me!" Brittany blurted in panic, "I've never thought of obtaining things without contributing!"

"Oh? Then what can you, a young lady forced by life, contribute to me?"

The woman crossed her arms and sized Brittany up, obviously indicated that Brittany could not afford to give her what she wanted.

Brittany made some calculations in her mind. She had hundreds of thousands of dollars in her bank card, which she had saved up over the past two decades. If she had not given Lydia one hundred thousand dollars, she would have saved more.

After she realized that the person in front of her was obsessed with money, Brittany decisively said to the woman while overcoming her reluctance, "I, I have a saving of..."

"How much?" The woman put her arm on the back of the sofa and asked casually.

Brittany thought for a while and said to the woman, "Sixty thousand!"

The lady who was still indifferent the previous second immediately sat up straight when she heard the amount.

Her eyes lit up and she asked in disbelief, "Sixty thousand? Where did you get so much money?"

Brittany pretended to be innocent like a little rabbit. "Kaleb gave it to me... What's wrong? Don't you have it?"

Hence, the woman was convinced a little.

Since Brittany was beautiful and young, she was the most outstanding among the mistresses. It was then understandable that Kaleb gave her tens of thousands of dollars as she deserved it. So the woman became more convinced.
