Chapter 221 They made a deal
The next day, it was very hot outside. It was approaching noon when Yolanda suddenly got a call in the
middle of a facial massage in an upscale beauty salon.
“Hello, who is it?” She picked up the phone impatiently.
“It’s me!” There came a voice from the other end of the phone that made her jump.
“You…are not mad. I knew it.” Yolanda was shocked to hear Joey’s voice.
“The Sky Café, you have ten minutes before I leave.” Joey hung up the phone. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Yolanda was left with a solemn face. She quickly washed the product off her face and rushed out of the
salon.
Fortunately, the beauty salon wasn’t far from the café where Joey had agreed to meet her. She arrived
at the cafe within ten minutes.
As soon as she walked into the café, she caught sight of Joey sitting at the window.
Joey was wearing a white T-shirt and blue cropped jeans. Her long hair hung down over her shoulders
and she didn’t wear any makeup. She looked so pure and innocent, except that she was a little pale.
Yolanda was surprised. She had to admit that Joey looked all the more endearing.
“You’re not crazy!” Yolanda walked up to Joey with a resentful face and fierce eyes, as if she wanted to
eat Joey alive.
Joey looked up at her calmly, “Yeah, I’m not crazy. Sorry to have let you down.”
Yolanda was suddenly irritated by Joey’s calmness and ease. When she thought of how Joey had
pretended to be crazy and nearly bitten off her finger at the hospital, she wished she could go up and
slap Joey hard right now. But she refrained from doing anything beneath her dignity in public.
Yolanda took a deep breath and said through clenched teeth: “Go ahead. Why did you ask me out?”
Joey said without haste, “I know you’ve been trying to get back with Allen, but there’s no way he’ll ever
take you back as long as I’m around, unless…I leave him first.”
“What do you mean?” Yolanda was intrigued, “Are you…going to leave him?”
Joy nodded, “Of course, I’ll leave him on one condition.”
Yolanda asked, “What is it?”
“I want half a million dollars, not a penny less.” Joey said with a straight face.
Yolanda smiled sarcastically, “Oh, Joey Lederman, It seems I’ve overestimated you. You’re nothing but
a gold-digger. If I had known that money was all you wanted, I wouldn’t have bothered to team up with
Chance and Ben Hawk to kill your baby. OK, it’s a deal. I’ll give you half a million dollars. But I want you
to swear that you will never appear in front of Allen ever again.”
“Okay, I swear.” Joey nodded coldly without the slightest hesitation.
However, Yolanda shook her head and her voice was malicious, “I want you to make a solemn oath.”
“All right.” Joey held up three fingers without thinking and said coldly, “I’m making an oath not to see
Allen ever again. If I break my oath, may God punish me.”
Yolanda smiled with satisfaction. She took out a blank check from her bag and wrote out the check for
half a million dollars. She swung the check in Joey’s face and sneered haughtily, “Take the money and
get out of here!”
She turned gracefully and left the café with her head held high, like a proud peacock.
Joey looked coldly at Yolanda’s back as she walked away and slowly took out a recorder from behind.
Yes, Yolanda wasn’t the only one who could record a conversation.
She had thought that it would be difficult to get Yolanda to confess to the miscarriage. What she hadn't
expected was that Yolanda was so momentarily overcome with complacency when she learnt of Joey’s
willingness to leave Allen that she had easily confessed her crimes. Great, she got the evidence.
Joey picked up the check and stood up nonchalantly. She walked out of the café and got in a red
Ferrari that had been parked outside the café.
Philip and Sarah were waiting for her in the car.
