Chapter 149
Jack came in and sat opposite Usama. He pounded a medicine bottle on the table! Next, he flung out a stack of photos. Seeing this, Usama trembled for fear and dared not to look up.
Jack sat back in his chair, looking elegant and domineering with his legs crossed. His cold gaze fell on Usama. ” Are these photos familiar to you?”
Usama didn’t have the guts to reach for the photos. When he cast a glance at them, his heart ski pped a beat with fear!
Those were photos of his parents, wife, and children… Some were taken at home and some at school.
In a fluster, Usama nerved himself to look up at Jack.
“I dislike threatening others,” Jack said in a cold voice and continued, “It’s unfair for your family to shoulder your mistakes.”
“Oh, no…” Usama yelled inwardly.
Usama absorbed in his thoughts, “This time I’m afraid I will betray Mrs. Yancey, even though she has been good to me all these years.”
Jack didn’t bother to observe Usama’s expression or figure out what he was thinking.
In Jack’s heart, he must get the truth from Usama today!
At this time, Samantha held her phone in the Yancey manor and checked the time again. It had been a long time, so she thought, “Usama should have finished his task, right?”
Immediately after, she called Usama with a new number.
On the other side, the atmosphere was eerily quiet in the large conference room of the Yancey Group.
A sudden ringtone frightened Usama! His shoulders quaked, and his face was full of guilt. Without looking at the caller ID, he knew it was from Samantha…
Usama thought, “She took the initiative to call me, so it won’t be my fault to confess the truth, right?”
Jack sat opposite Usama in a domineering manner and gave an extremely gloomy look. “Answer the phone.”
Usama tried to suppress his panic and took his phone out of his pocket. His fingers trembled as he stared at the unfamiliar
number.
“Put it on speaker,” Jack ordered flatly.
After a glance at Jack, Usama swallowed and answered the phone with a pale face. Meanwhile, he put his phone on speaker…
“It’s me.” Samantha’s anxious voice came from the other end. She held her breath and asked, “How’s that going? Is it done?”
Jack’s horrible aura caused Usama to tremble and his burning eyes shone on Usama’s face like a searchlight! At the same time, his rage was growing! Michael saw Jack clench his fists.
“Mrs. Yancey…” Usama was guilty and flustered.
Samantha realized something was wrong. “What’s going on? Did you screw it up? Where are you?”
“I… I’m with Mr. Yancey. Help me, please.” Usama was in complete panic. He had never expected that he would be caught.
On the other end of the phone, Samantha froze there! She stumbled back a few steps! It seemed that she had messed with the most horrible man! She was so scared.
Before Samantha hung up the phone, Jack said coldly, “Mom, come to the company right now. If I don’t see you within half an hour, I will let my men bring Liam back. He will see his mother’s true colors!”
“No… Samantha panicked.
Jack ended his conversation with Samantha, while Usama dared not move with the phone in his hand. For a moment, Samantha panicked and had no idea what to say. Anyway, she couldn’t allow Liam to know all this!
“Mrs. Yancey, for all I’ve done for you, please help me!” Usama began to beg Samantha, “I’ve worked for you on a salary. Also, I have parents and children at home.”
“Enough!” Samantha snapped and hung up the phone!
Usama was a real drag!
After the call, there was an eerie silence in the large conference room. The air here seemed bone- chilling to Usama.

Jack looked gloomy! His cold aura showed that he was now furious!
After years of forbearance, his confrontation with Samantha began because of Violet.
Michael finally understood. He thought, Jack must love Violet very much.
Through the years, Jack has been turning a blind eye to Mrs. Yancey for Liam’s sake, even to the step- uncle Armand. However, the two don’t cherish opportunities and have caused trouble many times!
Now in the Yancey manor, Samantha was sitting on the sofa by her bedroom window. She flushed and had a feeling that Jack was serious this time.
Samantha thought, Josef likes Violet very much, but I’ve tried to hurt her. Will Jack take this opportunity to kick me out of the Yanceys?
No!
I can’t admit it!
But I admitted it during the call earlier.
What should I do? What should I do now?’
In a flurry, Samantha only knew that she had to find an excuse. She couldn’t go there! How could she be obedient to Jack as an elder?
Then she took out her phone and dialed Jack’s number.
Jack sat on a custom sofa with his legs crossed and stared coldly at the caller ID. He extended his slender finger to press the answer button and put the phone to his ear, but he didn’t say anything.
“I can’t go right now,” Samantha calmed down and continued, “Your Grandpa wants to see your dad. I’ll help with disinfection and some preparations.”
“I have no time to wait for you. Five minutes have passed, so there are 25 minutes left.” Jack’s chill voice was terrifying. “Whether you come or not, there must be a consequence. By the way, Liam is in Rheinsville City. Yesterday, Michael saw him there. Now Liam should be almost on his way home. Do you want to solve it in front of him or Grandpa?”
Samantha was scared at once and wondered, “Is Jack threatening me?”
“There are twenty-four minutes left. You’re the boss. I’ll wait for you for half an hour. Here’s your chance, but it’s your own business whether to cherish it.” With that, Jack hung up the phone.
Jack’s face darkened, and his eyes blazed with anger.
In the Yancey manor, Samantha clutched her phone and gritted her teeth! However, the flash of panic in her eyes was genuine.
She thought, “Does Jack want to confront me openly for Violet’s sake?”
Samantha didn’t flinch and decided to go there. Anyway, what could Jack do to her?
She only cared about Liam now and did all this for him. Hence, Samantha couldn’t let Liam know that he had a vicious mother!
Samantha was still expecting a fluke when she drove off to the Yancey Group. She believed that as Jack’s stepmother and an elder, he couldn’t do anything to her.
In the future, she would wait for the caller to speak first. Today, she fell into a trap due to her anxiousness.
Samantha hadn’t realized her mistake until now.
At the moment, the atmosphere was cold in the reception room of the Yancey Group.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
The door was guarded, and the whole floor was blocked off. If this family affair was spread, it would only cause gossip. “Mr. Yancey, please let me go for the sake of my failed act. You’re the bigger person.” Usama begged in a quaking voice, “In fact, I have been working for Samantha all these years. To be frank with you, Ms. Violet Yeager’s car accident yesterday was ́also related to her. Samantha asked me to arrange it” With that, Usama knelt before Jack and added, “I was wrong. From now on, I’m willing to serve you. Let me go, please, I have parents and children at home…”
