“If there’s nothing else, you can leave. I still have work to do,” Aiken said.
Simona was completely exasperated. “Alright, alright, I’m leaving.”
After she left, Aiken called Skylar back.
“I saw the video. The person in it does look a lot like Joe, but he denies it in the video. So, whoever he is, I’ll have someone investigate it thoroughly.”
Skylar then responded, “Yes, I know he denied it, but… I have a feeling that he is Joe.”
Aiken hummed in acknowledgment and opened his mouth as if to say something, but then he held back. There was no point in speculating until they found the person. Without seeing him, any guesses were meaningless.

“No, I have nothing to do with the Ruell family.”
“Really? You and Ms. Ruell seem to be very good friends,” Ursula said, unable to quite
understand her own feelings.
After everything that had happened, she couldn’t trust anyone. Everyone seemed malicious to her. Especially people like the Ruells. They thought they could trample on others‘ dignity just because they had money, believing their money could solve everything.
Ursula particularly disliked that. But somehow, Skylar didn’t give her that feeling, Instead, she felt an inexplicable sense of trust,
Skylar understood what Ursula was afraid of as her gaze fell on the necklace around Ursula’s neck.
“If I were Vera’s friend, I wouldn’t have asked her to leave a message for you. The necklace you’re wearing is cursed. It will bring retribution to those who harmed you and your mother.”

She stood up suddenly, overwhelmed with fear. For a moment, she had the urge to flee.
“Yes, I know some things. This necklace you have can also backfire on you. It’s true that those who hurt you will pay a price, but it will harm you too. Have you been having nightmares or falling ill frequently lately?” Skylar asked gently
Ursula’s eyes
widened even more. She never thought her secret would be exposed so easily.
