Kylie glared at the approaching man with pore hatred. “First, you spend a fortume hiring someone to kill Owen, and now you waltz in acting like the beann af Justice? Is this how you operate?TM
Samuel stood tall in an imposing manner. He arched a brow as he looked over at Kylie who was sitting by the desk.
His silence was as good as an admission to her.
“If you have a problem, come at me. What does he have to do with any of this?
“Despicable!” Kylie shot up from her seat and swing her hand toward Samuel’s face,
No one expected her to explode like that–not even Samuel. But he reacted swiftly and night her wrist midair. In a sharp voice, he said, “Is this how you express your love? By attacking your fance over another man?
Kylle’s eyes turned red. “Does it even matter anymore? No matter how express my feelings, it’s never what you Want”

Samuel’s patience was razor–thin, and his voice tuned cold. “Think for a second. If I wanted him dead, I could have crushed him like an ant, Why would I go through all this trouble?”
Kylie’s heart was numb, and her tone was devoid of emotion. “Save it for when you can prove it. Just like you don’t trust ine, Samuel, I don’t trust you either.” Samuel’s lips pressed into a tight line. He locked eyes with Kylie and remained silent.

The driver frantically shook his head. “No, it was…” He hesitated, then pointed toward Logan. “It was hilan.”
Logan’s eyes widened in shock. “What did you just say? I don’t even know you! You better watch your mouth–wards have consequences, and you might not be able to handle them”
This was absurd. Logan had never seen the driver before in his life.
How could he be accused of hiring a hitman?
Kylie gave Logan a meaningful glance. A sharp chill flickered across her face, and it sent a shiver down his spine.
Did she actually believe he was following Samuel’s orders to hire someone for murder?
This was insane. He was being teamed, and lie had no way to prove otherwise.
Frustrated, Logan bit back his anger. “I’ve never even met you. I don’t know who was behind this setup, but one thing is certain–you’re finished.”
Meanwhile, Simon stood by the side and silently observed the scene. His sharp gaze dissected every movement and flicker of expression on both Kylie and the driver. He didn’t miss a thing.
His voice was calm when he finally spoke, saying, “When people He, their nerves betray them. Subelusciously, they make little movements–things they do to relieve stress and hide their rudery.”
“I’m not lying!” The driver stiffened, his voice rising in panic. officers andously. “I was forced! I’m innocent! I’ma victim too!”

“None of that matters now.” Kylie felt guilty, helpless, and depressed. “I don’t want to have anything to do with him anymore.”
