"Ms. Blackwood, I've also found the answers you seek. The other party is led by Yvette, a popular celebrity in film and entertainment," the informant reported.
"Yvette? That woman who's rather close to Fabian?" Lyna snorted. "Who would have guessed that a foolish woman like her had the gall to do something like this. If I can find her, surely Fabian can do the same. Oh, a miserable fate awaits her. Hahaha!”
Lyna had pegged Yvette as nothing but Fabian's plaything. She held the greatest contempt for the star actress. Both of them might have practically committed the same crime but, to Lyna, she had done it for a much nobler cause. Once she had Hannah eliminated from the equation, then she would be the Norton family's rightful daughter-in-law. As for Yvette? She was nothing more than
one of Fabian's filthy rags.
"Alright, that's all. You can go now,” Lyna gave the informant a wave, motioning him to leave.
But that person had no intention of leaving. He just stood there in front of Lyna, and she was getting irritated.
"What are you still standing there for? I told you to go. Do you understand me?" Lyna was already quite furious. Her own plans failed time and time again, and she had to watch Fabian and Hannah show their affection in public that day.
Even a subordinate was going against her. Fed up, she lashed out at the informant, pouring out her dissatisfaction, and even went as far as to pick up a teacup on the table and smash it onto the floor.
The man quickly turned sideways when he noticed Lyna's fury. He hesitated whether he should bring up the issue on his mind. Eventually, he spoke, "Miss, about the payment..."
He did not go on. He just looked at Lyna as he waited for her answer.
Lyna only got angrier at his request. You've done such a shabby job, and I don't even know if Fabian would find out about me, yet here you are asking me about payment? Are you incredibly bold or incredibly foolish?
Those were her thoughts, but she kept them to herself, because she knew she would need more help later. If she had revealed what had been on her mind, she would surely be blacklisted in the black market, and by then she would have nothing to gain.
