Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 253

The moment Jennifer arrived at Charlene's office and saw Daniel, she dropped to her knees and began to wail hysterically while hitting herself. "Daniel, it's all my fault! I was blinded and manipulated by them!"

Charlene quickly walked up to her. "Jennifer, stop this."

Jennifer grabbed Charlene's arms and said, "Charlene, you have to save me!"

A flicker of sympathy flashed across Charlene's face when she saw how pitifully Jennifer was crying her eyes out. Then, she threw Daniel a glance, as if wanting to say something but holding back. She was definitely caught in a difficult position.

"I'm really finished this time. I shouldn't have listened to that bastard Zidane! I don't know how he did it, but what was supposed to be an investment turned out to be loans taken out in my name. Not only that, but there's also a pile of high-interest loans. Those loan sharks will not let me off that easily!"

Jennifer was truly terrified now. The more she spoke, the more fearful she became. "My company is already in trouble. I can't believe that Hibari Corporation—such a massive factory, such a huge corporation in Sunrise Isle—would actually scheme against me! I…"

She began to sob uncontrollably once again.

Daniel watched her sob impassively, his expression never changing for one second. Far from feeling sympathy, he actually felt a sense of satisfaction. After all, this was exactly what she deserved.

Charlene finally couldn't hold back any longer and started to say, "Daniel, you—"

"Jennifer, you've always been useless. You have no real capabilities, yet you insisted on taking on this project. Other than your viciousness, you don't seem to have a single redeeming quality."

Daniel shook his head before continuing, "I'll help you this time, but from this day forward, you have to do everything I say. If I tell you to jump, you'll ask how high. Understand?"

Jennifer couldn't help but look up at him. Those words sounded so familiar to her. Wasn't this exactly what she had done to him in the past?

The only difference was that he hadn't resorted to physical violence. But Jennifer felt this wasn't out of kindness. No, she felt that he was simply afraid of accidentally killing her, because then he wouldn't be able to continue tormenting her. But it wasn't like she had any other way out now.
