"Okay, fine. I'll let you off this time, but make sure that it doesn't happen again. Otherwise, you'll have to go back and work for your father," Fabian murmured as he shook his head.
"Thank you, Fabian! I'll definitely commit that to memory!" Jason quickly promised upon hearing that.
Meanwhile, at Blackwood Residence, Lyna was relentlessly applying makeup on her face to make herself look tanner without diminishing her beauty.
As she stared at herself in the mirror, she nodded in satisfaction. My countenance now is entirely different from my usual look. It's as though I've changed my face! And although I'm a bit tanned, I still look very stunning!
She was about to head to the jail to visit Yvette, so she had no choice but to alter her appearance so as to avoid suspicion. "I don't believe anyone can still recognize me now."
She had always been cautious, so she even put on sunglasses before leaving. Driving alone, she drove to a bustling area before alighting from her car. Then, she hailed a cab and headed to the jail where Yvette was being detained.
"Please wait for me here. I'll be right out after visiting someone."
As Lyna said that, she took out a few bills in the hundred denomination and handed them to the driver.
The moment the driver saw them, he grinned from ear to ear. Oh wow, this is about the amount I make fetching passengers for two or three days! Thus, he naturally agreed without an ounce of hesitation. "No problem! Just go and take your time. I'll be waiting for you here."
Subsequently, Lyna climbed out of the cab and headed toward the place where Yvette was detained.
"Please take me to Mr. Lennox. I've notified him of my visit beforehand," Lyna said to the guard as she handed him an envelope.
The guard darted his gaze around before stuffing the envelope into his pocket. Then, he ordered, "Follow me."
In no time, Lyna was led into an office, and she met Blake Lennox.
"I'm Yvette Tanner's cousin. I'd like to see her for a while and say a few words."
