Chapter 62 Why Did Ivan Choose Her?
Haley remained composed and said, "Go ahead, tell me."
"I'll add another billion, making it a total of two billion. Once you receive the money, leave Cuenca and never come back," Emily said, her heart bleeding as she spoke.
She didn't have that much money in her account. She would need to take a loan from the bank to gather two billion. However, she had no other choice.
Keith had people watching her, so trying to hire someone to assassinate Haley was impossible.
Furthermore, if she had blood on her hands and it was discovered later on, she would never be able to marry into the Winston family.
If spending some money could make Haley disappear, Emily would grit her teeth and pay up. Money could be earned again, but if the truth came out, there would be no chance for a turnaround...
Haley stared at Emily, watching her change expressions dramatically. She smiled lightly and said, "Emily, you've always been a person who never makes a losing deal. If someone takes advantage of you even a little, you'd do anything to get back tenfold. Why would you be willing to buy my shares at a loss today? Your main focus shouldn't be the shares, but rather wanting me to leave Cuenca, right?"
Emily's face stiffened, and she instinctively denied it, saying, "I just don't want you to enter the DeRoss Group and compete with me for control."
"But you're clearly afraid..." Haley took a step forward. "Why are you scared that I join the DeRoss Group? Emily, tell me, what are you afraid of?"
"You're imagining things. Why would I be afraid of you/!" Emily shouted, "I just don't want to see you, and I don't want to see you appear in my familiar territory. I want you to leave, far away, and never show up in my world again!"
Haley sneered.
If it were really that simple, it would be great. Unfortunately, it wasn't.
If she just didn't want to see her, there were many ways to do so. Emily did not need to hire someone to kill her.
Emily must have something she was afraid Haley would know. Haley wondered what it could be. Haley pondered in her mind but couldn't figure out a reason.
But it didn't matter. They would have plenty of days to interact in the future, and she would eventually find out Emily's secret.
She gave Emily a cold glance and turned to leave.
"Haley, you haven't agreed to leave Cuenca!" Emily chased after her in high heels. "We haven't clarified things yet, you can't go!"
"That's impossible."
Haley avoided her touch, her eyes filled with coldness. "Cuenca is my hometown. I was forced to leave for four years against my will. It's wishful thinking if you think I won't come back ever again!"
"You!" Emily was furious. She really wanted to push this despicable person off the building.
Haley is delighted to see Emily lose control. She smiled slyly. "Emily, your relationship with Mr. Ivan from the Winston Group is quite good, isn't it?"
Emily's eyes widened. "What are you trying to say?" Emily's mind began to spin, wondering what Haley knew.
"I'm going to the Winston Group later to discuss job opportunities. Would you like to come along?" Haley spoke while closely observing Emily's changing expression.
"Discuss job opportunities? You don't need to go!" Emily grabbed Haley's arm. "I secured that project with the Winston Group, and it's my responsibility. You can't get close to the Winston family through work!"
