Chapter 940
Chapter 940:
Once the car stopped, Leon hopped out, yanked Fulton from his seat, and had two guys pin him down.
For a man used to power, the humiliation was unbearable.
Fulton struggled, but Leon only tightened his grip.
They marched him upstairs to his office.
Fernanda slid into his chair, crossed her legs, and tilted her head. “Give me the contracts between you and Robert. Then we’ll talk. I’m not in the mood for games, so cooperate, Mr. Griffin.”
Fulton’s face was a picture of fury.
Before he could get a word out, Fernanda cut in. “Mr. Griffin, I just want to see the contract. Spare me any excuses.”
With a sneer, Fulton retorted, “Miss Morgan, where’s your proof? If you’re accusing me of scheming with your family against you, prove it. If you want to escalate the situation, I could insist that your parents called me over to your place because of your secret crush on me.”
Unruffled, Fernanda blinked; she had anticipated Fulton’s resistance. Businessmen were notoriously shrewd, always the last to own up to any wrongdoing.
Leon, boiling with anger, started hurling insults at Fulton.
With a shrug and a chuckle, Fernanda calmly played with her phone.
Moments later, an audio clip broke the silence.
Then, a woman’s voice emerged. “Robert, she’s asleep!”
“Really?”

“Yes, completely out. I’ll let Mr. Griffin know he can come in now. He’s just outside.”
“Where is Fernanda?”
“She’s here.”
“Mr. Griffin, about our earlier discussion…”
“Don’t worry, you’ll get everything you deserve. You’re using your daughter as a bargaining chip for a company. You’re the ones gaining from this.”
“Thank you so much!”
The audio stopped abruptly.
Watching intently, Fernanda saw the color drain from Fulton’s face. He hadn’t anticipated she would record their conversation.
While at the Morgan residence, she had tapped on the window with a peach pit to get Michelle’s attention.
She then dumped her coffee in the trash, turned on her phone’s recorder, and pretended to fall asleep. Michelle believed her plan was flawless, but Fernanda had seen through her intentions from the start.
