Freya's legs turned to jelly the moment she saw the surveillance footage, while her hands holding the mouse trembled uncontrollably. Her eyes stared at Riley like they had lost focus, and from the tone of her voice just now, Freya could tell that Riley was not going to throw her hand in.
"What do you want?" Although Freya was trying hard to stay calm and unnoticed, her voice betrayed her as soon as she opened her mouth.
Freya was nothing but a paper tiger.
Riley looked at Freya, who was scared out of her wits, and suddenly felt sad for her, "You ask me what I want? My good sister, that's what I want to ask you, what do you want?"
Freya froze and sank herself into the boss chair, a chill running down her back. She looked up at Riley and didn't say anything as she was more afraid she might say the wrong thing.
Seeing that Freya was already scared like that, Riley said, "Today, you blocked my keyhole, so tomorrow are you going to block my mouth forever? Freya, do you think I should block your mouth first before you block mine?'
Freya's eyes suddenly widened twice as wide. She looked at the imperturbable Riley in a daze, her heart was overwhelmed with guilty conscience and uneasy, but then she took a deep breath.
She couldn't be defeated by Riley, everything was just the beginning!
"Riley, what are you freaking out about in my office! Get the hell out of here! Get out!" Freya pointed at the door to drive Riley away, but the latter looked indifferent.
"What's your hurry? When I want to go, I'll go on my own, but right now, I don't want to go yet."
Riley randomly drew a document from the file basket and flipped through it, then tapped her fingers on the table again and again. "Freya, are you going to apologize to me now, or are we going to appoint a lawyer?"
Every word she said in a tone that was neither joking nor serious carried a lot of weight, making Freya's heart pound when she heard the words.
"You want me to apologize? In your dreams! Riley, yes, I was the one who sent someone to block your door! Not only do I want to block your door, I also want to kill you!"
Freya stood erect, but her body was trembling with rage. Her finger pointed at Riley's forehead, with the urge to kill her.
Riley smiled faintly. She looked up at Freya, who instantly took off her ladylike disguise and acted like a madwoman.
It was really no fun talking to Freya.
She liked someone smarter or someone who was at least not as dumb as she was.
Freya was simply not worthy of being her opponent.
"Oh, want to kill me? Let me give you a chance. You don't have to play any tricks, just kill me now." Riley's eyes always had a faint smile in them, and her smile didn't even give a hint of sarcasm.
After living with Freya for so long, she would be a failure if she didn't understand how this woman's brain was structured.
Freya grabbed a folder and tried to smash it at Riley, but luckily there was still a sliver of sanity left in her mind. In the blink of an eye, Freya smiled, slowly put down the folder and sat back in her chair. "Riley, since you have the evidence in hand, why don't you just go to the Public Security Bureau and report it? When the officers of the Public Security Bureau take me away and sentence me to a few years in prison, you can get all the Watson family's property back, can't you? But..."
She smiled even more smugly and arrogantly. "What do you think will happen to the company's stock once the media learns that the Watson family's general director has been arrested and jailed for a confrontation with her sister?"
"You should have heard about the operating status of the family business. If Mom and I hadn't done our best to support it, the Watson family would have gone bankrupt!"
After Freya finished her words, she hooked her scarlet lips and moved her upper body up slightly, staring at Riley.
Riley clenched her fist, she didn't expect a woman with such a low IQ like Freya would actually figure it out.
She didn't hand her over directly to the police for fear of causing a domino effect. She had thought of completely exterminating Freya and her mother in one blow, but considering the consequences, she didn't dare to act rashly.
But, who was Riley?
"Do you think I care much for the Watsons' property? You probably forget that I am the young mistress of the George family, Euan's wife. One finger of Euan can decide the survival of the Watson family, do you think I really don’t dare to touch you?"
"Hahahaha! The young mistress of the George family?! Do you really think of yourself as the daughter-in-law of the George family? If Euan thought of you as his wife, would he still be constantly exposed in the media with Lydia and not say a word about you? My dear sister, it's so pathetic that you don't even know you've been dumped!"
Riley's fair, slender fingers tapped on the table, over and over, while raising her eyebrows." Do you want to bet on the assets of the Watson family? To see if I have the ability to do so or not?"
The muscles in Freya's face tautened, "You ..."
"And, if something like this happens again, it won't be as simple as giving you a warning. Of course, out of consideration for the reputation of the Watson family, I won't turn you over to the police, but there are plenty of ways in this world to shut a person up forever. I have ten thousand ways to keep your mouth shut, and likewise, I have ten thousand ways to make people not believe your words."
Riley kept a smile on her face, and the ripples in her pupils had the power to make people's blood creep.
"What are you trying to do?!"
"I told you my purpose long ago, apologize to me."
Riley and Freya stared at each other, and Freya gritted her teeth, refusing to do that.
"I'll only give you ten seconds, and if I still don't hear your apology, I'll have to pay you back the way you did to me."
Riley looked straight ahead, the face of the woman in front of her turned an unnatural shade of purple from anger. Her five fingers clenched into fists bit by bit, but she didn't dare to do anything.
Riley was Euan's wife. Although he didn't care about her and even had an affair with another woman, she was still the daughter-in-law of the George family after all, so her words still carried a lot of weight.
Freya, who didn't know the inside story, had scruples about her.
Stiffening her neck and gritting her teeth, Freya spat out three words, "I'm sorry."
Riley arose slowly from her seat, afraid to tear her wounds, then she looked down at Freya with a half-smile. "I'll leave this CD for you to keep. Oh, by the way, I'm afraid you'll lose it, so I've got a few copies for you. If you accidentally scratch the CD, I can give you another one."
Freya's teeth chattered, "Get out!"
"Give my regards to your amazing mom and tell her to cherish the days living in the Watson family villa, because maybe one day in the future..."
"Get out of here right now!"
