"He says he's from the Rivera Group Legal Department, and you just believe him? Rivera Group is a huge conglomerate that deals with countless matters every day. How could they be concerned about what a no-name social media user has posted online? Just keep calm, and nothing will happen."

Thalia's voice was firm, but Tasha was still uncertain. She could not shake off the feeling that Thalia was not entirely reliable.

"Are you sure? Because he sounded so convincing and even mentioned serving me with a subpoena. He told me to find a lawyer, just in case. What if it's true? What am I supposed to do then? Do I have to find a lawyer? I don't want to get involved in a lawsuit!"

The more Tasha thought about it, the more frightened she became. She could not understand how she had been so naive as to accept a task from Thalia. Although her life had not been easy before, she had never gotten into trouble like this.

'What if I end up in jail? What will I do then? My entire future will be ruined!' thought Tasha. Her mind raced with fear and anxiety.

"Hey! You're not lying to me, are you? I have evidence of all our transactions, so if I get into trouble, you won't be getting out of this either!" This was perhaps the only clever move Tasha had made, not fully trusting Thalia. Otherwise, she would indeed be left to fend for herself. Thalia sneered disdainfully, feeling that Tasha did not know her place.

"Are you threatening me? We had an agreement, I gave you the money, and you helped me complete the task. Are you trying to back out now? I told you, as long as you do as I said, there won't be any problems.

"Why did you even take my money if you didn't trust me back then? As far as I know, you've already spent most of the money, right? I even gave you an extra forty thousand dollars. Are you still not satisfied? Can you earn this much money working at your company? I advise you not to be too greedy!"

Tasha felt a bit guilty because of the extra 40 thousand dollars Thalia had given her; she was indeed quite short of money.

"I don't regret it, but things aren't going as you said before! They're getting lawyers to sue me. Am I supposed to go to jail just for this little money? You also need to figure out a solution for me. Going to jail isn't good for either of us, right?

"If it's possible, I don't want to go to court. I want both of us to be okay because I hope to work together with you again."

Thalia was irritated. She could not believe how greedy Tasha was, trying to swindle her money again even after she had already deceived her once. Did she really see herself as an easy target? 'This woman's greed knows no bounds,' she thought.

Even if they managed to get through this, Thalia would never work with someone like her again. However, there was a silver lining-such people were easily controlled. Dangling some money in front of them would make them readily agree to anything.

"Alright, I understand your concerns. If someone does end up suing you, I'll arrange a lawyer for you. Just one thing: Before I contact you again, you cannot call me anymore. Even if you need to reach out, find a public phone booth. Don't use a personal number to call me." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Tasha sighed in relief upon hearing that Thalia would arrange a lawyer for her.
