Chapter 107
Zachary wasn’t really worried about whom Hayden would suppon. He just found it amusing to see Hayden caught in a dificult situation
Hayden glanced back at Richard before turning to Dylan and asked, “Why are you here?”
I noticed Zachary’s expression suddenly freeze, while Richard quietly left
I was a bit confused and thought, ‘Shouldn’t Richard be helping Hayden at a time like this? Why did he leave halfway!”
While I was still confused, Dylan’s voice came through, “My uncle rented a shop from you guys and got cheated out of a lot of money. I’m here to serk justice for him.“–
Hayden didn’t look at him Instead, he turned his gaze towards i
I raised an eyebrow, kind of figuring out what he was thinking, and said. “It’s really just a coincidence”
“Is that so?” Hayden gave a slight smile, with his expression turning cold.
He looked like he didn’t believe me, but I didn’t care.
Joanna noticed the tension in the air and moved closer to Hayden, starting to act sweet. “Hayden. I’ve already checked. Martin’s contract is fake. I
won
Hayden didn’t say anything, and his gaze grew colder as he looked at her.
I laughed sarcastically. “Do you really think finding a loophole in the contract means you’ve wont if I remember right. Mr. Swanson wanted this completely sealed, right? Does it look seuled to you now?”
Joanna froze for a momera, and her eyes opened wide as she glanced around, with a flicker of panic in her gaze.
She gripped Hayden’s hand, feeling a bit scared. “Hayden…
But Hayden didn’t protect her like before. Instead, he smoothly pulled his hand away. “This is a workplace.”
I raised my eyebrows in confusion and thought, ‘Are the two of them arguing?
Having lived many more years. Martin had some experience, seeing this, he knew what was happening and started to tearfully share his ordeal. “Mr. Parker, you probably don’t know people like us. I have rented the shop at Kinars Square for decades, running a small business with my wife. “Even if you no longer want to lease it to us, theres no need to deceive me like this. That money is all our hard–earned savings… Martin said. As he spoke, tears shone in the corners of his eyes.
*Uncle, don’t be afraid. Yvonne will surely stand up for us,” Dylan said, with his gaze becoming more intense as he looked at me
He seemed to be the only one who believed in me from the start
Stanley added, “Mr. Zamora, don’t worry. The person who forged the contract will definitely pay the price, and you’ll get your hard–earned money
back.”
“Yeah, don’t worry about it,” I reassured him, and took out the confession video Irene had made earlier and played it in front of Hayden and Zachary. “See for yourselves. This is the manager, Irene, personally admitting she worked with Harrison to forge the contractTM
Martin got excited seeing Irene in the video. This is the woman 1 signed the contract with
Hayden watched the entire video, with his brow furrowing more with each passing second.
Zachary rested his chin in one hand, nodded thoughtfully, and said, “From this perspective, it seems like the issue is on our side…
Hearing this, Hayden shot him a cold glance. Zachary immediately played innocent and spread his hands open.
Zachary thought. I didn’t even sign the contract, in why glare at me?‘
Joanna saw the video and felt a sense of crisis. She hastily interrupted everyone’s thoughts. “Who knows if this video is real? Why didn’t you just bring her here directly!”

Stanley interrupted her with a stern look, not even bothering to give her a second glance. “Witnesses have the right not to attend.”
He couldn’t and foolish women
Jeanna clenched her teeth, realizing she couldn’t argue with the expert lawyer, so she turned to question me instead. “Did you do this? You knew you were going to lose, so you brought all these people and made a fake video.
I narrowed my eyes, ready to reply, but Hayden beat me to it. “Be quiet.”
“Hayden…” Joanna was taken aback, with her eyes welling up with hurt
In this situation, she assumed Hayden would back her up. She was confused.
I was a bit surprised too and thought. ‘Didn’t Hayden always protect her? Was he acting like this today to avoid suspicion?”
But today, I was not going to give in to them
“If you have doubts about the video’s authenticity, you can verify it. Or you could call Harrison in to confront him. I spoke slowly, full of confidence.
“I’ll call him in right now? Joanna immediately went aside to make the call
I already knew that Harrison was at the headquarters of the Parker Group, and without him today, things would be a lot less lively
While Joanna was on the phone, Hayden’s eyes stayed fixed on me.
There were so many complex emotions in them, except for dislike
I thought I must have been mistaken because Hayden should probably dislike me the most in his life.
Harrison arrived quickly.
Joanna had explained the situation briefly over the phone, and as soon as he arrived, he started complaining. “Everyone, I don’t even know that woman named Irene. I signed legally with the Parker Group, and that’s all I know”
Hearing this, Joanna visibly let out a sigh of relief. “Mr. Robinson is solely focused on doing honest business. There’s no way he’s involved in any underhanded schemes.
By defending Harrison, she was actually protecting herself.
If they lost, she would be fired.
Not to mention she wouldn’t be able to accompany Hayden every day, she couldn’t take this frustration.
After wrapping up his act, Harrison simply lowered his gaze without saying anything more.
As long as he stuck to his denial, these people probably couldn’t do anything to hini
Zachary looked around and sighed. This is really tough, an everyone has their own story. Mr. Parker, who do you think we should believe?” He was always t
trying to drag Hayden into the mess
Seeing Hayden silent, he directly asked, “Mr. Parker, you’d trust your own wife, right?”
1 frowned
Zachary’s words were a trap.
If Hayden said he trusted me, he’d seem biased.
But if he said he didn’t trust me, there would be a rift between us
For Zachary, this seemed like a clever two–birds–with–one–stone strategy. Unfortunately, he miscalculated one aspect–I no longer cared what Hayden thought.
It was not the first time he hadn’t supported me.
trust evidence. Hayden’s cold voice abruptly interrupted my thoughts.

Chapter 107
Before the feeling of sadness could take over, Richard arrived with Lidia
This person had been getting close to Joanna lately, and Joanna’s eyes lit up the moment she saw her,
Stanley leaned in close behind me and quietly said, “Don’t worry. We have the crucial documents. I’ve got your back.
even more.
I wasn’t very nervous before, but hearing this boosted my confidence ever
Joanna’s joy was barely containable, and she jogged a few steps to meet Lidia Lidia, You’re here. You know Mr. Robinson best. There’s no way he’d collaborate with that manager, right?”
As long as Lidia sided with Joanna, the situation wouldn’t be in my favor
I glanced at Richard, realizing this was Hayden’s plan.
As expected, he still chose to help Joanna.
Even though I anticipated it, it still made my heart feel a bit tight.
Before I could feel sad for even two seconds. Lidia stammered, “I… I heard from Mr. Robinson that he gave Irene some money…”
Before she even Enished speaking, I was already looking at Hayden with surprise.
The person was brought by him, and she shouldn’t help me out.
