Revenge on My Sister and Ex-Husband (Adelaide) novel Chapter 98

Chapter98

Adelaide finally got off the car, I don’t know how long it took.

Because she couldn’t see, her features were magnified infinitely, so she carefully felt where she was now.

She was pressed down on the chair until the blindfold and tape

on her mouth were removed.

The glaring lights made her instinctively shut her eyes tightly.

“Ms. Pierce.”

The unfamiliar voice made Adelaide furrow her brow.

Following the sound, she saw that oily–haired, chubby–faced

woman, who she surprisingly recognized.

The Hicks Group’s financial manager, Zayne Patel.

Adelaide was stunned for two seconds.

Why not Garrett, but him?!

Zayne had a smile on his face, but it looked extremely uncomfortable. He walked over, wiping sweat with a towel, and politely apologized, “Ms. Pierce, I’m really sorry for bringing you

here in this way.”

Adelaide raised her eyebrows and asked him, “Why did Mr. Patel go to all the trouble to bring me here?”

“I wanted to ask Ms. Pierce for a favor,” Zayne said, nodding

slightly and showing sincerity.

Seeing this, she smiled slightly and said, “Mr. Patel’s way of

asking for help is really unique.”

“Pressed by circumstances,” Zayne still managed to give a

But Sir Pierce wants me to take the blame and go to jail. I have elderly parents and young children to support. If I really go in, how will this whole family

survive?”

Adelaide was silent, her eyes scanning over the contents of the

paper.

After a while, she asked, “Do you want me to take the blame?”

Zayne laughed deeply, “Ms. Pierce is smart.”

Adelaide was speechless: “Everyone knows I’ve never been to the company, asking me to take the blame, isn’t that a

giveaway?”

“Only you are the most suitable.” Zayne said decisively, “Sir Pierce only needs a scapegoat, so as long as you voluntarily surrender, Sir Pierce will turn a blind eye. Even if Ms. Pierce goes in, I believe Mr. Pierce will find a way to bail you out.”

“In the end, you definitely came out unscathed, but if it were me, I’d probably end up in jail for several years.”

Zayne looked sad and sincere as he said, “Please help me out

with this favor.”

Adelaide asked him, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll be released on bail and you’ll end up going in?”

“Don’t worry, I’ve got this,” Zayne winked at the person next to him, then smiled at Adelaide, “Ms. Pierce, if you just sign here,
