Semua Bab Mr. Webb, Make Your Move!: Bab 351 - Bab 360

"I just woke up and saw that someone had sent these to me." Zara's voice was hoarse as she had just woken up. She was feeling a little scared.The photos on her screen would surely cause trouble. They looked like she had someone pick on Leah, and then, as if to prove it, someone had sent her those pictures.Her fingers shook as she held her phone.Even though she was scared, she was not freaking out. She checked the time on the message again. "It was sent at four in the morning. I tried to call the number, but the phone was turned off."Shelby got straight to the point. "So, it's not a fake internet number or a dead line? It's a real phone number?"Zara bit her lip. "Yes, it's a real number from Starville.""That's interesting," Shelby said, unscrewing her water bottle. "Send me the number. I'll have a friend look into it. I'm heading to the airport now. I'm catching the next flight to Westwood."She would have preferred taking the high-speed train to Westwood, but all the ticke

Zara could not help but chuckle at the thought and turned to Shelby. "The punishment for hiring men to sexually assault someone, even if the attempt failed in the end, should be pretty severe, right?""If the proof is solid, it's between three to ten years," Shelby replied.Zara's face lost even more color. No wonder Leah had insisted she would end up behind bars.The wind last night had been pretty chilly, sending temperatures tumbling down. Even in the visitation room that was without a single window, Zara could feel the cold creeping into her bones.Shelby usually liked to keep things clear and to the point, but seeing Zara looking so down, she lowered her voice. "It's only if the proof is rock-solid, okay?"Your fingerprints might be on the money, but the law puts more weight on hard evidence than just someone's word. And one piece of evidence alone won't cut it. The court will consider their charges, but if they don't have any more evidence, their case won't hold up. Try not

Zara's throat felt dry as she asked, "You won't take advantage of me, will you?"Yosef gave her a look that could mean anything. They were on their way to the 12th floor, and the elevator glided up until the doors opened with a soft ding. Carrying her out, he finally answered."You're not exactly smelling like roses right now."She had only been wrapped in that musty blanket for a short time...Yosef reached her door and unlocked it using a key card he had somehow gotten.Zara did not even bother to ask how he did it.She knew by then that he could do pretty much anything.He nudged the door shut with his foot.Just like that, he was in her room.Yosef gently set Zara on the couch. She managed to pour herself a glass of warm water and had drunk most of it when the doorbell rang. Yosef went to answer it.He came back holding a food container.It must have been ready and waiting to be delivered at the right moment.He popped open the container to reveal a steaming bowl of chi

"I needed to use your place for work." Yosef approached her. "Your hand, please."He had a fancy suite upstairs with better internet. What did he need to do in her room? Zara slowly extended her hand.He dropped two white pills into it."Sleeping pills. Take them and you'll sleep."Zara gripped the pills tightly. "I'll manage to sleep... Mr. Webb, you should go back to your room."Yosef looked at her weary face and tousled hair. Suddenly, without any sign, he kissed her.Zara jerked back instantly.Yosef held the back of her head firmly, making it impossible for her to dodge away. He kissed her more intensely. Zara's breaths came out all wrong. She pushed against his chest in a panic, letting out a soft groan.He nipped at her lower lip, then let her go. Zara quickly grabbed the blanket and rolled to the far edge of the bed, eyeing him cautiously.Yosef did not go after her. He was still holding his glass of water, but his voice had grown a bit raspy. "You look just like you d

Yosef looked up, his gaze fierce and commanding. He looked like a tiger ready to pounce.Teresa's complexion went pale, and she plopped back into her chair.She then realized how embarrassing it was to be intimidated by someone younger and quickly stood up again. She was about to speak, but Wilson Nox calmed her down.Wilson maintained his composure. Since Yosef had not outright said he would cover for Zara, there was still a chance to talk it out.He smiled again. "Yosef, that was a bit harsh. My wife is just a little quick-tempered and speaks her mind..."Yosef was short on patience. "Get to the point."After a moment of silence, Wilson got straight to it. "Zara's the one to blame. She hurt our daughter, and we're going to make sure she pays for it!"His last words echoed with determination.At the table behind Yosef, a woman was quietly eating when her spoon slipped and clinked loudly against her plate.Yosef took a quick look backward."Just stay out of this.
