100 Her Sacrifice 2 (1/2)
---
Present Time; at the restaurant
--
Vince answered the call and it came from Slayne. He reported that they spotted a text message from Nyelle's phone. They even figured out who was the mastermind and asked Vince if what would be their next plan. Vince instructed them to gather concrete evidence then to capture Nyelle and the mastermind. Slayne clearly understood the plan and ended the call.
'You aren't contented with what you and your mother did to Yve. Now, I'll make sure you will pay double time.'
Vince thought as he went back to the second floor but then he stopped just a few steps away and hid behind a post as he heard Yve telling her side of the story.
'This mother of mine is really sneaky. But I'll just let them talk for now.'
A waiter who saw Vince was about to greet him but was halted when Vince placed his hand on his lips to hush the waiter. The staff got the message and went back to his job.
On the table, Yve continued her story.

Flashback

Then she heard someone knocking on the door.
'It must be Vince. He's back now!' Yve thought and hurriedly rushed to open the door.
She was petrified to see the person she least expected outside Vince's condominium. It was Amira. Yve didn't know what to do.
”Afraid to let me in? Then I guess I won't sign this paper.” Amira threatened Yve.
Seeing the envelope both of them knew what it was. This left Yve with no choice but to let Amira in.
Seeing the interior of the condominium, Amira can't help but feel jealous.
'This should belong to my one and only daughter.'
Both of them sat on the living room and Yve didn't waste a single time.
”I don't think there is anything wrong with the plan in helping Gray Group. So why are you here?”
”Little arrogant, aren't we, Yve?”
On the contrary, Yve is feeling nervous that something might have happened and the board suddenly disagreed. As today's the 7th day, every second that passes by is of great importance.
”The board agreed to my proposal yesterday.” Yve plainly said.
”Yes, they did as it ended on my desk last night.”
”How?”
”Oh my little Yve, I'm still your legal guardian so your signature will not be enough to implement this huge deal. My signature is definitely needed.”
”Don't tell me...”
”Tsk, tsk, tsk. I'm not that evil. I just want to propose a deal with you.”
”What kind of deal?”
”I will sign this right here and I will call the office to implement this immediately under one condition....”
”What is that?”
”Stay away from us and from Vince.”
”ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?” Yve exclaimed.
Amira ignored her question and said, ”How will Vince feel if he lost everything and that even Stones Enterprises didn't lend their hand?”
In her mind, Yve knew the answer. Vince will feel so down not because she didn't help but because the company failed despite offering his assistance. He will continue to look down on himself.
