“It’s obvious if you think about it. If we kicked up a fuss, he will definitely bring out evidence to knock you down a peg. Today’s goal was to destroy that evidence.”

Quinn Young smirked.

“But now, what evidence do you think he still has to prove that you’re the one who cheated?”

Stunned, Jane Smith slowly shook her head.

Cole Stone didn’t hold back against her earlier. Other than the chat records, there was almost no other evidence to prove that Jane Smith was the one who cheated on him.

But Jane Smith asked once again. “Aren’t you afraid that he has a backup?”

“We can just say that he faked the backup files. Why are you so scared?”

Quinn Young added. “I only asked him to delete it, but he made things difficult for us and asked for too much money.”

“With that attitude of his, do you really think that he has a backup copy? He was even reluctant to delete those chat records earlier!”

“That makes sense…”

Jane Smith mumbled. “He never got into the habit of making a back-up after all.”

“What about you? Are you sure that you threw away all the receipts for your tuition fees that he paid?”

Quinn Young made sure to think of every detail as she asked once again.

“Why are you bringing that up?”

Jane Smith frowned. “After I changed the lock that day, I threw them all away.”

“I thought that he might blackmail me with those receipts to try and get some money from me once we broke up. It’s good that I threw them all away. Now I know how much of a jerk he is…”

Quinn Young nodded. “Yeah, it’s good that you threw them away.”

She was satisfied with their situation.

From the looks of it, Quinn Young knew that Cole Stone probably did not have any other evidence of Jane Smith having an affair.

That was because when Cole Stone wanted to prove himself today, he actually used such despicable voice messages to prove that he was the one who got cheated on!

No man would do that unless they had no other evidence to prove their innocence.

After all, that was tantamount to them putting down harming themselves for the sake of victory.

It was a sad and humiliating display of desperation!

This further proved that Cole Stone was at his wits’ end earlier.

Jane Smith was vexed. “How are we supposed to take the million dollars for ourselves now?”

Quinn Young smiled proudly. “Isn’t these videos and photos at the gym enough?”

She opened the file and everything that happened this morning appeared on the computer screen.

“What can we do with that?” Jane Smith frowned.

She looked awful in the scene.

The screen showed that she was being scolded by everyone around her.

Quinn Young looked at Jane Smith. “Have you forgotten how the gym photos were made?”

Jane Smith’s eyes lit up. “You mean editing?”

“That’s right!”

A sinister look appeared in Quinn Young’s eyes.

“How can a poor country bumpkin deal with me?”

“The money he took away brought me shame. I want him to spit it out and return it to me a thousandfold.”

…

On the subway.

Cole Stone was deep in thought.

He knew that if he did not ask for a lot of money, those two would not believe that he had no more evidence other than those chat records. He had to make sure that he showed them enough desperation. Only this way would they believe his narrative.

Cole Stone’s gaze turned cold as he stood before the subway.

He wanted to see what those people were up to.

Of course, his biggest gain today was the 10 thousand dollars.

With this money, he could relieve a lot of pressure.

Ding!

Destination reached.

Cole Stone left the station and walked towards the hospital.

…

In the taxi to the gym.

Cole Stone sat in the back seat.

The doctor’s words were still ringing in his ears.

“You recovered too fast!”

Cole Stone touched his forehead.

The scar had already scabbed over.

To be honest, he had no idea what was going on with him either.

Ever since he left that mountain, his body’s recovery rate increased by several folds.

No matter how crazily he trained, he would remain energetic the next day.

This was also why Cole Stone could stand out in the gym.

Cole Stone shook his head.

This was not a bad thing.

But he did not have to think about it for now.

“We’re here.”

The driver announced.

Cole Stone nodded and paid the driver before getting out of the car.

…

5 PM at the gym.

This was the gym that had previously tried to poach Cole Stone.

“May I know if you still need a fitness trainer here?”

Cole Stone asked.

The boss took a few glances at Cole Stone and said indifferently, “Cole Stone? Go back. Mr Lewis has blacklisted you from our establishment.”

Cole Stone sighed and walked out of the gym without saying anything.

This was the sixth gym that he visited since morning.

No one would risk offending James Lewis by hiring Cole Stone.

Even if James Lewis was still grounded, it was only because of Cara Williams.

It had nothing to do with Cole Stone.

Cara Williams did not slap James Lewis’s face because of Cole Stone.

This was what the outside world knew…

Moreover, someone like James Lewis might lose his position and influence, but it wasn’t a problem for him to step on mere ants.

You want to continue your career as a fitness trainer?

Dream on!

“It looks like I’ll have to find another way.”

Cole Stone remained steadfast even after the rejections.

In any case, he had already suffered quite a few setbacks in the past two days.

But at this moment…

Cole Stone’s phone suddenly rang.

He looked at his phone.

It was his mother.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” Cole Stone asked.

“Come back home, right now… Your father and I are waiting for you.”

Cole Stone could tell from his mother’s voice that she was suppressing her emotions.

Cole Stone’s expression changed slightly. “Back where? Aren’t you in our hometown?”

“We’re here in Sky City. At your new house.”

Cole Stone stiffened. “Okay, wait for me.”

Beep!

The call ended.

Cole Stone’s face darkened.

Those two women were ruthless!

After they made him delete the chat records evidence in the morning, they called his parents over in the afternoon.

“Alright, it’s going to be a tit-for-tat…”

Cole Stone’s eyes flashed coldly.

He got into a taxi and the driver drove straight to his neighborhood.

Before going back to the new house, he had to retrieve something first!
