An upset Raina snapped, "I don't want to work there anymore." She wouldn't go back after they humiliated her.
Confused, Peter asked, "If you don't want to return, why do you look so frustrated, then?" He wanted to get his daughter into talking so that he could cheer her up.
However, she still didn't answer. She only picked her bag up and left. It was because Yvonne had just called her and asked to meet up.
The lady in question was in a coffee shop having a cup of coffee. Though Raina had hung up on her without saying a word in the earlier call, she was certain Raina would show up.
Just as she thought, Raina showed up, and Yvonne cocked an eyebrow. "Still can't let him go, huh?" she teased. Though, she didn't even look at Raina as she said that. Her attention was still on the coffee.
"Quit the sarcasm. What do you want?" Raina sat down and looked at Yvonne.
Now that she knew who Yvonne was, Raina mocked, "Are you trying to get to him through me because you failed?"
She wasn't being nice, but she wasn't being too unkind either. The Keplers might have lost their influence in Luke Corporation, but they could still ruin Raina's family if they wanted to.
Yvonne took a sip of her coffee, not showing any emotions. "That's not your concern."
"Then, what is?" Raina retorted.
"That I'm going after Vania. Nothing else matters as far as you're concerned."
Yvonne's goal was simple: to ruin Vania's life. She didn't care about how it would affect anyone else. They were just her pawns.
"I might tell her you said that." Raina shot her a cryptic look. Why did Yvonne drag me into this mess? she wondered.
The threat didn't work on Yvonne. Her feud with Vania was public knowledge. There was nothing to be scared of. Even if Raina told Vania what she said, it would be slander without proof. And Yvonne could slam her behind bars easily. That was what she told Raina.
"Why you…" Raina couldn't believe the woman before her could be this terrifying. She refused to speak another word on this topic, or it would rope her deeper into this mess. Thus, she stood up. "I won't work with you, so stop calling me."
I should stay away from her. I have a feeling she can't win this battle.
Raina's adamant refusal surprised Yvonne. She cocked her eyebrow and smiled, but the smile looked horrifying. "Then, I shall wait for you to come to me on your own," Yvonne said. It sounded like she was sure Raina would come to her eventually.
Raina stopped in her tracks and looked at Yvonne curiously. Why is she so sure I'd come back for her? Something's wrong, and it's terrifying.
She wanted to ask more, but Yvonne had put her cup down and left with a smile. Raina saw her off, but her mind was elsewhere.
