Chapter 25 Backstabber
In a villa in the south of the Capital City, Georgina walked back and forth in the living room with an anxious expression on her face. She looked at the door from time to time, and at the moment she heard the noise, Georgina pounced and grabbed the arm of the man entering the door, anxiously asking, "Baker, how did it go?"
The man called Baker was tall. He had a shiny bronze skin and a square face with thick lips. At first glance, he appeared to be a loyal and honest person, but no one would have expected such a person would deal in human trafficking business for a long time, and no one knew how many innocent women he had harmed.
"It's done. I've sent the woman who offended you to the ship myself, and now the ship has left. She'll never be able to come back to the country."
Baker sat down on the sofa. He picked up some grapes on the table and began to eat them. The scorching sun outside was burning the ground. He hadn't done the job in person for years. It was all his men that did it for him. However, because it was Georgina who made the request, he made an exception this time.
On hearing Rejoyla had been sent away, Georgina's eyes flashed with ecstasy. She laughed and thought to herself, "Rejoyla, this is what happens when you cross me. Do you really believe that you can become the lady of the Sterling family after you joined them with Jacquelyn Howardson? Tut! Look at your origin! You fatherless bastard! How dare you piss me off? You'll spend the rest of your life in a poor and remote rural place as a prostitute and will never get out of it!"
The more Georgina thought about it, the happier she got. As long as she took care of Rejoyla, she could return to the Sterling family. She was currently living in her uncle's villa in the south of the city. She didn't dare to tell them that she had been expelled from the Sterling family. She just said that because there was a new person at home, she felt bored and wanted to come out and relax.
She knew that Bruno was in that kind of business, so she figured she could send Rejoyla away secretly with the help of Bruno. To her surprise, he did it so fast that Rejoyla had been dealt with today.
Upon thinking of this, Georgina felt that she would definitely need him again in the future, so she kindly poured a glass of water and handed it to him. She said, "Thank you, Baker. I know you treat the best!"
Baker didn't take Georgina's cup. He glanced at Georgina and said, "Georgina, I did everything you asked me to do. If you do want to thank me, then do me a favor!"
"What?"
"How is Mr. Sterling's new wife?"
"Ah, why do you ask about Jacquelyn Howardson? She is just an old woman who got lucky. It won't be long before Grandpa kicks her out. She is old and has two daughters. How can she compare to young girls? My grandpa's previous partners were all young girls in their twenties, and they couldn't even stay with him for too long, let alone Jacquelyn. Okay, enough with the killjoy. Baker, what do you want me to help you with?"
Georgina got angry as soon as Jacquelyn was mentioned. Luckily, Rejoyla was gone now. "Jacquelyn must be very sad now," Georgina thought to herself.
Baker frowned slightly at Georgina's words, and he replied perfunctorily, "Oh, nothing. It's just I was fighting for territory with a group of people last time. I spooked them by using the Sterling family's prestige. I hope you can help me put in a good word before the Sterling family."
He decided to wait and see for now. Judging from what Georgina said, Jacquelyn wouldn't be by Mr. Sterling's side for too long. Originally, he wanted Georgina to help him hook up with one of Jacquelyn's daughters, as he knew he wouldn't have the chance to marry a legitimate Sterling. He needed the influence of the Sterling family to support him, so he figured marrying Jacquelyn's daughter was a good choice.
He didn't know Jacquelyn's daughter, whom he was thinking of marrying to, had been sold by him already, since Georgina didn't tell him who she was and only said she was her enemy. He wouldn't have agreed to do it if he had known Georgina became enemies with Jacquelyn, who had just married into the Sterling family.
Georgina wasn't clear, but for someone who had been outside for many years like Baker, knew all too well where the Sterling family stood in the Capital City. Therefore, even the Sterling family's adopted daughter was not someone he could offend.
"That's no big deal. Rest assured. I'll put in a good word for you before Grandpa." Because Rejoyla had been taken care of, Georgina was very happy, so she was quite generous in showing her kindness. They both had a good time. As the sun set, the floor-to-ceiling window in the villa reflected a gorgeous red color, and it shone on Georgina. Georgina smiled happily.
On the deck, however, Rejoyla was having a hard time.
Seeing Rejoyla didn't know how to fight, she was pinned to the ground by the two women. Although there was a helper, the little girl who helped her was as thin as a rail, so they were no match for the other two. In no time, Rejoyla was beaten to the ground.
The blows fallen on her back were heavy and painful. Rejoyla sniffed, and for a moment, she lost her will. She figured that she was locked here already, and that she wasn't sure if she could get out, so she might as well die here if she couldn't. She knew better than what would the women who were sold end up. If she was about to go through that, she'd rather die.
"No... Sisters, I beg you... Stop fighting!"
