The private room was not very dim and was bright enough.
The people sitting on the sofa with their backs to Yvette suddenly turned back to look at her. Everyone was unfamiliar with Yvette.
She also noticed that the women in the room were well-dressed properly and did not look like they worked in the club.
Yvette immediately felt relieved and walked over with a smile.
The man sitting in the main seat on the sofa was thin with sunken cheeks.
He looked very imposing, and his eagle-like eyes looked fierce.
At this moment, the man looked at Yvette with gloomy eyes.
Yvette shook off the discomfort in her heart and smiled naturally.
She nodded to the man sitting in the main seat on the sofa and said, “Mr. Lineman, I’m Lance Sheldon’s wife. It’s a pleasure to meet you”
“Chandler Lineman” looked at Yvette with a meaningful smile.
“Ms. Quimbey, I’m not Chandler Lineman. You’ve got the wrong person.”
After he finished speaking, everyone around him chuckled softly and looked at each other.
The smile on Yvette’s face stiffened as she looked at him, puzzled.
The man pointed behind the divider, where there was a faint sound of someone shuffling some cards, but no one spoke.
“Chandler is inside. Ms. Quimbey, if you want to see Mr. Lineman, you can go in there.”
The man smiled at her creepily.
At this time, Yvette suddenly had a bad feeling.
However, she could not pinpoint it.
She had already ruled out so many possible factors, and she would not be so unlucky, right?
These people outside were dressed neatly as they sat and talked.
However, Yvette suddenly realized something.
Although they dress like business people, Yvette did not recognize any of them!
This did not make sense.
Chandler Lineman was a sought-after business partner in the industry who would rather reject cooperation with Sheldon Corporation. This indicated that the other party was better than Sheldon Corporation.
However, if the other party was better than Sheldon Corporation, Yvette would have heard of that person in Atlanta before.
Yet, these people were total strangers.
For a moment, a bad intuition surged in her heart.
Even so, Yvette looked calm as if nothing had happened.
Yvette did not look at the divider. She lowered her eyes and laughed lightly, trying her best to be natural and calm.
“Actually, I’m not that curious either. Since cooperation isn’t possible, I think I should leave. Goodbye. We can talk about it next time if there’s a chance.”
Yvette turned around and walked toward the door.
The person sitting in the main seat chuckled softly and said in a low voice, “Ms. Quimbey, you’re giving up so soon? Don’t you want to see the people inside?”
Yvette paused slightly before she continued to move forward without hesitation.
Just as her left hand touched the doorknob, she suddenly heard a low and familiar sneer coming from behind the divider.
“Yvette, you insisted on coming to see me, but you wanted to leave before you met me. How boring!”
She suddenly felt a tingle rise from the soles of her feet, as if she was bitten by a poisonous snake.
Slowly, the venom spread to her spine and her scalp, numbing her.
Yvette’s body stiffened, and her face paled. The panic in her eyes flashed by.
That suffocating fear was even worse than before, which made Yvette feel more repulsed by him.
It was really Sean!
Yvette indulged in more than a week of peaceful life that she almost forgot there was such a ticking time bomb by her side.
Now, Sean finally appeared.
Her heart quivered.
Since the last time Sean gave her to the old master, Yvette had given up the idea of being able to influence his thoughts.
She was stupid, but not naive.
Sean had stepped over corpses to be where he was today, so how could he ruin his life just because of her?
He would only get rid of her before she became an obstruction.
