Female Novel
Chapter 119
"I've never thought of getting anything in return for saving someone, even if he was the second sonof the Norwalks!"
There was a slight smile on Angeline's lips. "I can remain silent about this, but if I take the moneyand Ingrid is revealed to be the impostor who claimed to save Mr. Norwalk when she didn't, then I'llbe forced to stand out and explain this! Or you might even reveal all the transaction records andpush the blame on me to save Ingrid."
She was right. Ned looked grim.novelbin
"You brought a non-disclosure agreement with you, didn't you?" The smile on her face remainedunchanged, but the sinister look in her eyes sent a chill down his spine. "Ned, I was so wrong aboutyou. You really disgust me! Since we're divorced, why can't you just be gone? Why do you have tokeep tangling with me? I'm just your despicable ex-wife with a questionable character, right? Can'tyou two live without me?"
Ned's expression contorted. "Angeline, do you want the Emmersons to go and make a fuss atLawson Global?"
Grinning, Angeline looked at Ned. "You can only threaten me once with this. You used this to protectTommy, and now you're trying to use it to protect Ingrid. It's not enough!"
This answer was different from what Ned had expected. He gritted his teeth.
There was a provocative look in her eyes as she said challengingly, "I have nothing to fear, and youhave nothing to use against me anymore to protect Ms. Dalton."
Ned's lips were pressed into a thin line. "Name your price as long as you sign the non-disclosureagreement."
"I want Tommy dead," she replied nonchalantly.
"Angeline!"
"You can't do it? Leave then." Angeline was about to close the door.
"Angeline!" Ned pushed the door forcefully. "Apart from wanting Tommy dead, you can name anyother condition."
"Mr. Fletcher, I only want you and Ms. Dalton to stay away from me! Stop bothering me, and don'tinvolve me in your affairs. I can stay quiet about this, and like you said… I don't need thisendorsement opportunity!" Angeline remained calm the entire time. "However, I won't sign any kindof agreement! If you come to provoke me again, then don't blame me for not warning you. If you getwhat I mean, then let go. I'm going to close the door and have a rest."
Ned hadn't expected her to have only one condition. His lips parted slightly.
"You're not letting go. Do you want me to make a statement on Twitter and tag NorwalkCorporation?"
Ned looked at Angeline's pretty face, which was much thinner than it was in his memories. HisAdam's apple bobbed up and down, but he took a step back.
After closing the door, Angeline leaned against it slowly, her eyes reddening.
Angeline would remain silent about Ingrid posing as the person who had saved Simon's life for now.
It wasn't time to reveal this yet.
She would leave things as they were for a while.
Angeline wasn't that kind, and she wasn't a saint.
Ingrid's cousin had taken her younger sister's life. How could she agree not to make things difficultfor Ingrid?
Once Ingrid signed the endorsement contract and admitted that she was the one who had savedthe Norwalk family's second son, her popularity would rise to a whole new level. But she would alsosuffer more when her deeds got exposed.
Of course, if Ingrid wasn't greedy and clarified to Norwalk Corporation as soon as possible, shecould prevent that from happening.
However, if Ingrid was consumed by greed, it wasn't Angeline's fault.
Angeline had always known that Ingrid wasn't as innocent as she looked. She was aware of howIngrid had gotten together with Ned.
