Yannie was not lying when she said that she did not have the money. She was actually forced to sign the contract with Thomas’ entertainment agency.
All she did was agree with Joshua to get close to Thomas because of the one 148000-dollar reward. She thought only she and Joshua knew about their agreement.
She never thought things would take a turn for the worse.
There was one time Thomas had too many drinks. Seizing this opportunity, Yannie took his hair and fingernail and later brought them to Joshua. What was waiting for her on the other side were threats from Thomas.
In fact, Thomas was never drunk; he merely pretended to see what Yannie would do. The camera captured everything Yannie did from pulling his hair and cutting his fingernail, much to her terror. She thought Thomas would go look for Joshua, so she begged Thomas to look past this incident.
Of course, Thomas did not care if Joshua was in possession of his DNA specimen -it barely concerned him. Nonetheless, he used that video to threaten Yannie into signing the contract with unequal terms. Just like that, she became a celebrity under his agency, but she would not be receiving the money stated in the contract. Thomas had set a one-year duration for her. Within this one year, she had to stay and work for the agency, and only a year later would he give her the salary she was supposed to receive.
That was why Yannie had only the 148000 dollars that Joshua gave to her. Additionally, she had used that money to buy a new house in her hometown for her mother, Mrs. Flores, so she could enjoy her days in retirement.
Although Yannie looked like she was living a fabulous life, Thomas’ agency was in charge of her daily spending. She was still like before; poor without money.
Obviously, Doctor Camila did not believe this.
