"Hey, explain yourself. I've never even touched you. There's no way the DNA samples are mine. Did you tamper with the results?" Maverick knew what he did. He didn't even manage to do anything to Danny. There was no way he could have slept with Suella. This is slander!
Rylantha looked furious. If Maverick failed to explain himself today, he would be done for.
Suella was going to scam both sides in the first place. Now that Danny saw through her trick, Maverick was the only victim left, so she wouldn't let him go. Suella grabbed his collar and quickly shouted, "You're denying it? I have proof! Now, pay up!"
"What are you doing? You madwoman! Let me go!"
They got into a tussle, and none would let go of the other. Eventually, the restaurant's customers turned their attention to them.
Embarrassed, Rylantha tried to stand in front of them to stop others from looking at them, but the crowd was getting bigger. Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore and roared, "This is an embarrassment!" She then slapped Maverick. "Don't let me see you ever again!"
Maverick's cheek swelled up, and Rylantha left without saying a word. "Wait for me, Rylantha!"
"You're not going anywhere! Help! Stop this rapist! Help!"
Maverick wanted to go after Rylantha, but he was stopped by Suella. The guards were fast approaching, so Maverick flung Suella away without holding back. He ran down the corridor, but the elevator doors had closed. Maverick stopped for a moment before running all the way down the safety exit.
The elevator reached the underground car park, and Rylantha came out looking angry. The air around her seemed to tremble. She would kick anything that crossed her way right now. Just when she was about to get in her car, her phone rang. She even didn't bother seeing who it was and just picked up the call and roared, "What the hell do you want?" She was in a bad mood.
Maverick came just in time to see her roar, so he stopped. He wanted to wait for her to calm down before he could explain everything.
"Ah, you seem angry, Miss Abbott. Things not going your way? Do you need my help with anything?"
"Ah, you seem angry, Miss Abbott. Things not going your way? Do you need my help with anything?"
"What do you want, Morgan?" Rylantha was even more frustrated now.
"Aw, don't snap at me. We're partners, remember? I always drop in to say hi."
"You never say hi for nothing. What is it this time?" Rylantha cut to the chase. She had no time for pleasantries.
"Nothing. Just heard that Alexander got sick, so I might need you to visit him."
"You just want me to confirm if he's fine. I'm not your servant, Morgan. You're the one who kidnapped Anastasia. I just got dragged into it. I can just tell Alexander what you did. He won't do anything to me, not when the old man is keeping me safe."
Maverick heard everything. A hint of surprise filled his eyes, and then malice appeared.
Owen sneered, "Do you think Alexander would believe you? He almost killed you."
That reminded her of her close brush with death. A wave of chilling sensation washed over her, dousing her fury. She tensed up, and not a word could escape her lips.
"Two days. I await your answer." Owen hung up.
Rylantha waited for a moment, then she put her phone down.
Just as she was in a daze, Maverick said, "Rylantha."
Rylantha snapped out of it. She composed herself and said impatiently, "What do you want? We're over. Come near me again and you won't escape with just a slap."
"Oh, you're the only one who wanted to end this. I still want to go on." Maverick's eyes glinted with victory. No longer was he the subservient toy.
Rylantha looked at him with disdain in her eyes. "Do you think I care about your opinion?" You're just a toy. A toy I can throw away anytime I want. You don't get to call the shots.
"Hm, I wonder if you'd care about Alexander's opinion, then." A smile curled Maverick's lip.
"What do you mean?" Rylantha narrowed her eyes.
"Nothing." Maverick stepped ahead and pulled Rylantha into his embrace. "You know I love you. I won't hurt you, but if you hurt me, then all bets are off. I might have to tell Alexander what I heard."
A frown furrowed Rylantha's brow. "You're threatening me?"
A frown furrowed Rylantha's brow. "You're threatening me?"
"Oh no, my dear. This isn't a threat. Merely something to spice up our relationship. Don't you remember what you wanted me to say every time we f*cked? Now that we have our dirty little secret, we can be together forever. You should be happy."
Maverick tried to kiss Rylantha, but she evaded him. All she felt for this man now was disgust. Maverick didn't mind. He patted her head, staring at her like she was his prized trophy.
"F*ck off." Rylantha shoved him away. With her back facing him, she said, "I can keep you around, but clean up your mess. I will not allow you to see any other woman."
"Well, I'll need your help then. The Abbotts shouldn't find it hard to… make someone disappear here, right?"
Rylantha wanted to yell at him, but she was met with a smirk, and she realized he would use the same threat against her again. Yelling is useless. She used to be the one holding all the cards in this relationship, yet now she had to listen to Maverick. Unable to accept the change in roles, she simply got in her car and drove into the distance.
Maverick didn't go after her. Instead, he put his hands in his pockets and saw her off calmly. Now that he had dirt on her, he could make her do anything he wanted. I don't need to be her toy anymore, but I really have to get rid of Suella.

After a whole day of rest, Narissa set off for her mission the next afternoon. Stenson would show up in an expensive private hospital that day, and she must make it there before he did. Only then would she have a better chance of capturing him. The Hellens knew their cars, so Narissa opted for a walk so as not to expose herself.
However, the moment she came out of the house, she was met by Paul in a convertible.
"Honk honk," Paul said. "Where are you going? I can give you a ride."
