Chapter 1301
Once Cory shook off his tail, he messaged Aubree while driving.
Cory: Our cooperation is over. I'm going to get money from Mr. Farwell now. Good luck, Ms. Pearson.
With that sent, he switched off his phone.
Given how fearful Aubree was of Lucian, Cory had no doubt she was going to call him fervently.
All Cory wanted was money; he would not waste his time playing games with Aubree.
When Aubree received Cory's message, she cursed at her subordinates as she tried to dial Cory's number again and again.
Lucian had already told her that he was going to call off the engagement. If he were to find out what she had done previously, she would be dead meat.
Aubree was gripped with regret. She realized she should have given Cory that fifty million.
Alas, Cory seemed to have figured out that Aubree would regret her decision, as his phone remained switched off the entire time.
Her failed attempts stoked the anger in her, and she threw her phone onto the ground. Then, a wave of terror crashed into her.
That mad man Cory's capable of doing anything for money! He must be on his way to Lucian's place. What do I do now?
Aubree was at a loss. After a while of being rooted to her spot, she stumbled into her car and asked the driver to send her to the Pearson residence.
She had to discuss the matter with her parents.
The Pearson family would be doomed if Lucian were to find out what she had done.
Sure enough, Cory could do anything for the sake of money.
He drove straight to the Farwell Group office building, but when he arrived and looked up at the skyscraper, he gulped guiltily.
As Aubree had said, the three of them were in the same boat.
Choosing to betray Aubree was akin to betraying himself.
