Benjamin dared not resist and quickly handed over his phone to Delbert.
After taking the phone, Delbert immediately dialed Lily's number using Benjamin's phone.
It didn't take long for the call to be answered.
In the moment of connection, without waiting for a response from Lily, Delbert said directly, "Lily, I advise you to put away your dirty thoughts! I still don't want to harm you, considering your relationship with Liam!"
Suddenly!
There was a loud bang!
It sounded like the phone at the other end had fallen to the ground.
On Lily's end, the phone she had been clutching moments ago suddenly dropped to the ground.
The screen shattered, but Lily had no thoughts to spare for the phone.
She stared blankly ahead, feeling a sudden chill in her limbs and a buzzing in her brain.
When Lily received Benjamin's call, she had been overjoyed, thinking it was to inform her of the success of Benjamin's plan.
However, she heard Delbert's voice on the other end.
And he had advised her to put away her dirty thoughts.
Lily almost instantly realized that her plan had probably failed.
Since Delbert had been able to get hold of Benjamin's phone, Benjamin's situation was probably not good either.
Moreover, from Delbert's tone, he had likely already learned from Benjamin that it was her who had informed Benjamin about the jewel.
Her plan had completely failed.
Even the identity of her behind-the-scenes manipulator was thoroughly exposed!
After standing in a daze for a while, Lily picked up the phone again, pretending to look pitiful and wanting to argue, "Delbert, I don't understand what you're talking about. Didn't I already apologize to Harriet for what happened at the gems trading center?"
