On top of everything else, the sudden appearance of James and Megan–the very parents who had abandoned her–pushed Kyla to the breaking point.
If she didn’t act decisively, she could already imagine herself being manipulated for money by James, humiliated, stripped of dignity, and forced to survive under the Jensons‘ roof.
The thought alone filled her with despair. She would rather die than endure that life.
With a sharp motion, Kyla pulled the DNA report from her bag.
She flicked open a lighter and set it ablaze, watching the paper curl and turn to ash.
Her eyes glinted with a deadly resolve.
“This is all your fault … your fault … If this had shown you weren’t my biological parents, none of this would have happened. Don’t blame me don’t blame me …
…

Her words were a whisper to herself, a bitter mantra, yet also a silent accusation aimed at them.
Kyla’s fists clenched tight.
To make James and the others vanish completely, she needed money. Money was the only way to hire someone for the task.
And the fastest, most reliable way to get that money … was by betraying the Jensons.
There was no hesitation left in her. Her eyes went ice–cold as she dialed Tobias’s number.
Beep… beep… beep…
The call connected.
“Kyla, what’s going on?”
“Tobias, we need to meet. Soon.”
“Kyla… is something wrong? Why the sudden urgency?”
“Yes. There are things I need to tell you in person. And regarding our previous agreement, I think it’s time we continue. I need money.”
Kyla no longer bothered to mask her desperation. Only cash could solve her immediate problems.

“Sure. I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time. I’ll book a flight to Slosa right away.“”
Tobias showed no surprise, speaking in a calm, unshaken tone. He seemed to have expected
this.
“Good. I’ll wait for you. After this deal … we’ll finally be free. Then we can truly be together.”
His heart skipped a beat.
Could it be… Kyla uncovered critical information about the Jensons‘ operations?
When Tobias had first tried to manipulate her, he’d sensed she was hiding something significant about the family.
Something even Russell and the others didn’t know.
He believed Kyla possessed a secret that could shake the entire Jenson Group–and that was exactly what Tobias wanted. Not petty cash or small schemes, but a leverage that could topple giants.
Until now, Kyla had maintained some loyalty to the Jensons and would never have done anything to destroy them.
But something had changed. Whatever had occurred pushed her to the edge–she was now willing to risk their ruin to get the money she needed.
For Tobias, the reason didn’t matter. The secret was now within his grasp.
Unbeknownst to either of them, Tilda was quietly observing their every move.
She removed her earphones, tapping her chin thoughtfully.
“I didn’t expect Kyla to have a secret this big. Judging by the timing, she must have discovered it when the Jensons trusted her most. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have given her access to something so crucial.
“Heb
… so Kyla isn’t as naive as she looks. She has a trump card. I wonder what she knows that gives her so much confidence… but it doesn’t matter. The best surprises are revealed at the end.”
All that remained was to wait for Kyla and Tobias to meet.
At that moment, Tilda’s mind flicked to Darell.
According to her intelligence, Theo had taken Darell away to recover from his injuries for a few days, then flew to Yvoria to meet Zorana. He’d told the Jensons he had urgent business and couldn’t return, but he was likely hoping to use Zorana’s powers as a “medium” to uncover the
