Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 213

I wore an indifferent expression and smiled at the furious Jeremiah. "You don't have any evidence, so how can you accuse me?"

Jeremiah clenched his fists. After a long pause, he snorted coldly. "Even if you use dirty tricks, I'll still win the bid."

His face was full of confidence, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes. After making his threat, he gave me a deep look and stormed off.

I saw Elsa about to follow him and called out, "Stop."

Elsa stiffened, turning to face me with a guarded expression. The next moment, she returned to her innocent act and cautiously asked, "Jane, is there something you need?"

It seemed she thought I was going to scold her, so she immediately began explaining herself, "Jane, I didn't mean it earlier. Jeremiah just wanted to see you. He still has feelings for you, and I couldn't bear to see him like that, so I…"

I was already tired of hearing these pathetic excuses. I raised my hand to silence her. "Enough. I don't want to hear any of that."

I met her gaze and said with a smile, "The Cornell family is barely holding on, and you're still planning to stay with Jeremiah? To be honest, I've already got some inside information. This isn't a public bidding, it's a competitive one. The bid is for real estate, and I've already prepared the proposal. He doesn't stand a chance."

Hearing my words, Elsa's face showed a flash of shock, and her eyes darted around. I sneered inwardly, knowing she was falling for it.

She quickly recovered her composure and put on her best pitiful look. "Jane, Jeremiah and I—"

"I'm not interested in hearing your excuses. Get out, "I interrupted, halting her from uttering more of her clumsy lies.

She blinked, her eyes glistening with tears. When she saw my cold expression, she stood frozen for a long time. After a while, she sobbed a few times before abruptly turning and leaving, not even bothering to close the door.

I watched her retreating figure with satisfaction, knowing exactly what was going on.
