The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 581:

However, what caught her off-guard was Yolanda’s demeanor.

There was none of her usual fragility to be found.

The pieces clicked into place in Alicia’s mind.

“You’ve been faking your illness all along, haven’t you?”

Yolanda’s lips curled in a sneer.

Her frail act wasn’t a lie, just a tactic.

She had simply stopped taking her medication.

Looking weak and helpless was her best weapon for keeping Dorian’s unwavering indulgence.

But she had no intention of sharing that with Alicia.

Instead, she warned, “Enjoy your success while it lasts, Alicia.

The higher you climb, the harder you will fall.

I’ll be waiting for the day you make a fool of yourself.”

Alicia said nothing, her face an unreadable mask as she returned to the tech room to continue her work.

She thought it over, a sly grin playing on her lips as a devious plan began to form.

When Alicia stepped out again, she noticed Yolanda lingering nearby.

Opting for caution, Alicia quietly made her way to the restroom.

Yet, Yolanda spotted her in passing and felt a spark of suspicion flicker to life.

Therefore, she decided to follow her.

Meanwhile, Alicia was in the restroom alone.

Yolanda could hear Alicia making a hushed phone call through the door.

“Can you help me remotely now?” Alicia’s tone was low, almost honeyed.

“This is way more complicated than I thought.

I figured Corey called me in just to record some audio, but it turns out this chip has major issues.

I’ve been sitting here for hours and have barely made progress.

If Corey finds out I’m stuck, he will never let me off.”

There was a pause before she sighed.

“What? You can’t help either? Then what am I supposed to do? There’s no way I would turn to Yolanda for assistance.”

Outside the door, Yolanda chuckled triumphantly, a sly grin spreading across her face.

She had correctly deduced Alicia’s inexperience.

How could a novice possibly work on such a complex chip? When Alicia finally emerged, she caught a glimpse of Yolanda’s shadow slipping around the corner.

Alicia smiled softly to herself, then calmly washed her hands.

It took her over three hours to complete her work.

When she came out of the tech room, she asked, “Have you released Blake?”

Corey responded, “Of course.novelbin

The undercover captain who came with you has already taken him away.”
