“I bet you’ve found out something, haven’t you?” I smiled.
I also needed this connection just as much as Yasmin did. Instead of staying passive and being
attacked, I needed to take the initiative. Despite Michael’s serious injury, it was my responsibility
to assist Steven in maintaining his position within Lincoln Group.
Otherwise, we would become too passive. Despite feeling as though someone was protecting me from behind, I was always on edge in the Lincoln family, constantly fearing Martin and Dax’s. potential attacks.
Yasmin seemed reluctant, so I opened the door and prepared to leave. “If you’re not comfortable sharing, forget it.”
Yasmin firmly grasped my wrist. “The president of Crowdstar Group will attend the Chamber of Commerce’s charity dinner in Huma on the 1st of next month. It’ll focus on raising funds for
welfare homes. Stephany, that’s all I know.
“He’s highly respected and holds an untouchable position in the business world. No one dares to challenge him. We each have our own skills to accomplish our goals. Please don’t hinder me.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Yasmin’s voice trembled with fear as she worried that I might stop her from attending.
I pushed Yasmin’s arm away. “Whether you’ll make it to the first of next month is still uncertain. Are you that confident in your appearance? Do you think everyone else is just as stupid as
Michael? He’s the president of Crowdstar Group.
“A man in such a high position not only has a high status, but he might also be older. I heard he’s an old man in his 60s or 70s. You sure are open–minded and can appreciate men of all ages.”
Apart from the honey trap, she seemed to have no other strategy. Back then, her appointment as Michael’s secretary at the Ford Group was certainly not based on her qualifications.
Could the president of Crowdstar Group, a legendary figure, be captivated by Yasmin? He wouldn’t be as easily deceived as Michael, right?
Yasmin nervously grabbed my wrist and refused to let me go. “Stephany! Help me. If I can get in
touch with the president of Crowdstar Group, I believe I can assist you as well. But you have to
protect me first.”
I inquired in a solemn tone, “Michael is still alive. Will he be sad if he realizes that you’re already
looking for a new partner when he’s not even dead yet?”
Yasmin firmly stated, “Don’t defame me. I’m doing this for Mike… Contacting the president of
Crowdstar Group will also benefit Mike.”
I didn’t feel like listening to her nonsense anymore. “I told you to kneel down if you want me to
protect you.”
I walked out of the door. Yasmin wanted to kneel down before me in a secluded place, which could be seen as enduring humiliation.
“Don’t kneel here. When you requested Stephanie to kneel down before you, many people were in the ward.” With a sneer, I approached Steven and took a seat. “If you’re going to kneel, do it in this
spot.”
Yasmin glared at me with intensity, clearly seething. She knew I was humiliating her.
Steven was sitting obediently on the chair. He felt relieved when he saw me returning and reached out to hold my hand. “Stephie, she’s not worthy of kneeling before you.”
I smiled at Steven. “She won’t kneel down. Let’s go home.”
As Steven and I were about to leave, Yasmin suddenly called my name. Her eyes turned red, and she knelt on the ground in humiliation. “Stephany! I’m begging you. Mike is seriously injured, and
you’re the only one who can help us.”
She shamelessly attempted to emotionally manipulate me. Many people were observing and
pointing at us in the hospital.
“Yasmin, did you ever anticipate that this day would come when you slandered Stephanie and compelled her to kneel before everyone? I looked down at Yasmin who was kneeling in front of everyone, and I couldn’t help but sense a hint of irony.
Yasmin clenched her hands tightly, showing her unwillingness to give in.
She was extremely intimidating. She was flexible and resilient. She endured any humiliation I subjected her to because she was confident that she would rise to a powerful position in the future and repay me with even more humiliation.
Her determination fueled a powerful ambition to surpass Michael and establish a direct connection with the president of Crowdstar Group.
