Chapter 8 " Did it work ? " The excitement on Eddie's face was palpable . Larissa's eyes flickered . Of course , she didn't want to be seen involved in this matter . She said , " Why don't you go and take a look ? " Eddie immediately ran out and called his assistant . " Let the reporters in . " In the next second , his assistant's voice , slightly trembling , came through . " Mr. Langstaff , we've been caught ... " Eddie frowned while pushing open the door to the private room where Priscilla was . " What a bunch of losers ! Who caught you ... " The words died on his lips as the scene before him stunned him into silence . Priscilla wasn't affected by the potent scent at all . She sat calmly on the sofa , staring coldly at him . The three beefy men he had hired were pinned to the floor by several of her bodyguards . He couldn't help but tremble , his voice faltering . " Y - You weren't drugged ... " " You honestly think you're smart enough to plot against others ? " Priscilla 1258 Vouchers Chapter 8 mocked . " Eddie , I've never treated you unfairly . Yet you wanted to drug me , have someone rape me , and then have reporters expose the scandal ? Do you think I'll be so humiliated that I'll just hand over Wonder Group to you ? Dream on . " A flicker of ruthlessness flashed in Eddie's eyes now that his plot had been exposed . He snarled , " Yes , you're right . I wanted to ruin you . Wonder Group is mine by right ! " He was such a lost cause . She said icily , " You're hopeless . Only jail time will make you answer for your mistakes . " After she said this , several police officers strode in and immediately handcuffed Eddie . It was only then that he realized he had committed a real crime , one that couldn't be swept under the rug with money . Panicked , he shouted , " This isn't my idea ! Larissa planned all this ! She's right next door ! She's the one you should arrest ! " Hearing Larissa's name , Priscilla frowned . The officers immediately rushed next door , but Larissa had already fled the moment she heard the commotion . Priscilla spun around and looked out the window , just in time to see a limousine parked downstairs slowly pull away . The license plate was all familiar to her . It was Marshall's car . Meanwhile , Eddie kept shouting , vehemently claiming he was wronged . But Larissa was far more cunning . In all their scheming , she had 288 Vouchers Chapter 8 contributed her ideas verbally , leaving no tangible evidence that could ever tie her to the plot . It was Eddie who had bought the drugs and hired the men . Larissa's face was never even seen . Priscilla's gaze turned to ice . Without so much as a glance at Eddie , she left . That evening , at the Langstaff's estate . Randolph had gotten to the bottom of the incident . " Eddie met with Larissa twice before he bought the drugs . " Priscilla smiled coldly , " I never bothered with her . Yet she seems so eager to deliver herself to my doorstep . " She had never intended to deal with Larissa . After all , what was the point of retaliating against a woman who had merely taken away a man who never truly loved her ? But her leniency had only emboldened Larissa to plot against her so vilely and even covet the Wonder Group . If something had happened to Priscilla , Eddie would have inherited Wonder Group . With a few sweet words , Larissa could have easily manipulated him , and the vast fortune would have fallen into her hands . How scheming . Priscilla closed her eyes . After a long moment , a soft sneer escaped her lips . Randolph looked at her . " Cilla , what do you have in mind ? " She smiled , " Marshall is throwing a birthday party for Larissa soon , isn't 288 Vouchers Chapter 8 he ? It's sure to be a grand affair . It would be rude of me not to offer my congratulations . " The next day , Marshall received a call from the office of the CEO of Wonder Group . With Priscilla sitting directly opposite her , the secretary relayed the message word for word in a saccharine - sweet voice , just as she had been instructed . " Mr. Burton , Ms. Langstaff would like to know if your offer of collaboration still stands . " Marshall paused . The new CEO of Wonder Group was indeed a peculiar one . After her firm and outright rejection , why this sudden change of heart ? His interest was piqued as he twirled the expensive pen . " What made her change her mind ? " " Ms. Langstaff believes that making a friend is more profitable than making an enemy . She admits she made a mistake last time . Should you agree to collaborate , she would be very grateful . " Marshall squinted . " How should I know she's not fooling me around ? " " Ms. Langstaff heard you are hosting a birthday celebration for your girlfriend soon . To express her utmost sincerity , she wishes to attend in person with a significant gift . " Marshall was convinced . He was , above all , a pragmatist .
