The moment the door closed, the look on Betty’s face changed. She called Sophia.
Mom, I gave that bitch, Nina, time off tonight. I want to
Jeremy privately earlier. That little bitch may be the spy Jeremy placed around me.
“Take the bait?” Sophia’s tone was harsh.
“Yeah! Why would a maid like Nina have the guts to do something like that? Someone must have her back. This way, I can lure the person giving her orders out. Then, we will see who we are up against.”
A sinister smile appeared on Betty’s face. She was proud of her scheme.
“You imbecile! How could you be so stupid?”
Sophia scolded her. “You’re laying trouble for us for the future. Did you know that? I asked you to keep an eye on her. Now, you’re letting her loose to talk to other people?
“You don’t need an extra brain cell to know who we’re up against. It’s either Jeremy or Alyssa. What if she secretly meets Alyssa tonight? What are we supposed to do? If she tells anyone what she knows, we’ll be ruined.”
Betty shuddered and slapped herself hard on the forehead. She was so shortsighted not to see this coming.
“Nina will take action tonight.”
Sophia exhaled hard. Her voice was chilling and sinister. “She can walk out of Seaview Manor. But if she walks out of here, don’t expect her to come back ever again.”
Jeremy returned to his study and waited for Xavier. As he smoked by the window with a contemplative look, Nina’s words echoed in his mind, making his heart race.
Did that mean the maid had been secretly in touch with Alyssa? Why?
He mused, “Alyssa, what exactly do you plan to do? Why do you always make me worry?”
He answered when he heard a knock on the door. Taking another drag of his cigarette, he flicked the cigarette ashes with his calloused fingers.
Xavier shuffled into the room, shut the door, and handed Jeremy a note, explaining, “Mr. Walsh, this ist the address that Nina wanted to give you. She’ll meet Ms. Alyssa here tonight.”
Jeremy felt his chest tighten, and even his fingers shook as he accepted the note. He cast a quick glance at it, immediately memorizing the address.
Then, he questioned, “What else did Nina tell you?”
Xavier shook his head. “Mr. Walsh, I feel that she’s spying on this family for Ms. Alyssa.”
“She is a spy without a doubt,” replied Jeremy, clutching the note tightly.
Alyssa had always concocted plans under his nose and stirred up trouble.
Xavier wondered aloud, “What’s Ms. Alyssa trying to do?”
His eyes lit up when a thought crossed his mind. He exclaimed, “Did she get a maid to spy on you because she still has feelings for you? It looks like Ms. Alyssa still has a place for you in her heart. That’s good news!”
Jeremy shot Xavier a gloomy stare while taking another puff helplessly,
He wasn’t delusional. Alyssa hadn’t placed a mole in the Walsh family because of her feelings for him.
She was a busy and ambitious career woman who had no time for that.
Only one possibility remained. She must have been worried about certain problems within the Walsh family.
Jeremy wondered if Alyssa was thinking of ways to avenge Lyla. If that was the case, all she had to do was discreetly carry out the plan with Nina.
Why did Nina run to him and expose her plans with Alyssa?
Or was that a secret plea for help?
Eyes blazing, Jeremy felt invigorated and needed. He had a strong urge to protect Alyssa.
Xavier asked with concern, “Mr. Walsh, do you want me to go with you?”
Sighing, Jeremy shook his head. “No. Nina only wants me there, meaning they don’t want the others to learn about their plan.”
Still concerned, Xavier said, “Does Ms. Alyssa know you’ll be there? If it’s only Nina’s wish for you to be there, will Ms. Alyssa be angry when she sees you?”
“If that’s the case, I’ll keep an eye on her from afar,” Jeremy replied.
His eyes filled with affection when he thought of Alyssa. He said, “She’s always out creating trouble. I’m worried about her.”
At 9:00 pm, Becky left the house, all dressed up. Soon after she left, Nina, dressed in black and wearing a cap, sneaked out of Seaview Manor from the back entrance
After Nina was gone, a black sedan silently emerged from the shadows. The driver asked, “Ms. Betty, do we tail her?”
Jeffrey Snyder was a trusted staff member who worked as a special assistant for Sophia. Since he had served Sophia and Betty for many years, Sophia had ordered him to assist Betty’s mission that night.
Betty replied, “No, we don’t have to. We’ll make her suffer for selling us out. If we tail her closely, we might land in trouble if someone takes photos of us.”
After years of living with and learning from Sophia, Betty had honed her skills in executing unscrupulous plans.
“Alright. I’ll wait for Madam Sophia’s orders and take action when the time comes,” said Jeffrey unemotionally, just like a robot.
Betty asked, “What do you plan to do?”
Betty raised a brow leisurely and asked Jeffrey, “Does my mom want to kick Nina out of the family or get rid of her for good?”
“Madam Sophia wants Nina gone for good to avoid any future trouble,” Jeffrey replied with indifference.
Betty gasped, “She’s ruthless!”
“If Madam weren’t heartless, you wouldn’t be enjoying a comfortable and pampered life.”
“Hmph. Even if Mom did nothing, I would still have enjoyed the same life.” Betty dismissed Jeffrey’s statement.
Jeffrey looked at her through the rearview mirror with disdain. “Are you sure, Ms. Betty?”
Betty was upset at Jeffrey’s contempt. In her eyes, Sophia had resorted to underhanded tactics to marry
Javier out of desperation to elevate her status as a mistress.
But Betty considered herself different. She didn’t need to lift a finger to secure her position. She had been born into wealth and status as Javier Walsh’s daughter.
Fed up with Sophia constantly branding her as dumb, Betty was determined to prove her capabilities. She was determined to show Sophia that she was supe superior.
With that goal in mind, she leaned forward and whispered to Jeffrey maliciously, “Jeffrey, I have a brilliant idea to remove those who wish harm upon my mom and me.”
He cast her an amused glance. “What is it?”
“Why don’t we let Nina meet the mastermind behind this? Then, we’ll get rid of them at once. Doesn’t that sound exhilarating?”
Grinning evilly, Betty added, “Besides, I’m very sure that Nina’s a spy working for Alyssa. It’s a shoddy method, unlike what Jeremy would normally do.
“And if Nina was working for Jeremy, she wouldn’t have had to take the risk of sneaking out of the house late at night.”
Jeffrey nodded. “So you want me to get rid of Alyssa Taylor?”
Betty’s heart raced at the idea of getting rid of Alyssa. The thought made her nervous, fearful, yet excited.
It was her dream to get rid of Alyssa.
However, if Betty got rid of Alyssa, she knew that Winston would go to lengths to avenge his daughter. It
Still, it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to take action against Alyssa, especially given that she would meet with Nina without much security around.
Betty prodded cautiously with a menacing look. “Do you have the guts to do it?”
“It’s no big deal to me. This isn’t my first stint,” Jeffrey answered.
