The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 845

The worker was taken aback, and his expression shifted drastically. "Are you talking about Mr. Ewan Shaw?"

The bodyguard replied, "That's right. Mr. Shaw sent us to take your pathetic life. You won't live to see the sunrise."

The worker panicked. "You must be mistaken! Why would Mr. Shaw want me dead? Call him! I don't believe he'd try to kill me!"

"Cut the crap!" the bodyguard snapped.

"I'm telling the truth! Just call him! Mr. Shaw and I have a deal. Has he forgotten about it?" the worker tried to explain himself.

The bodyguard coldly laughed. "Mr. Shaw hasn't forgotten. He said you know too much, and the dead don't talk. He also said you're worth more dead than alive."

The worker's eyes widened. "What does Mr. Shaw mean by that?"

The bodyguard smirked. "Don't you get it yet? Once you're dead, all the public scrutiny will fall on Lambert Group, crushing them once and for all. Mr. Shaw said your life wasn't worth much anyway, so you're just a pawn to take down Lambert Group. You'll die for a good cause."

At the bodyguard's signal, two others stepped forward with a rope. Without hesitation, they looped it around the worker's neck and began to tighten it.

The worker was sharp and initially had doubts about the people Ewan sent. He thought Ewan wouldn't harm him.

But now, with the rope tightening around his neck, the suffocating sensation hit him instantly, and panic surged through him."

He clawed at the rope desperately. "Let me go! Ewan, why are you doing this to me? We had a deal! You told me to break my leg at the construction site and pin it on Lambert Group, then get my sons involved to escalate things.

"I've followed your orders. You wanted Lambert Group to get caught up in all this negative publicity, and I've done my part. Why do you still want to kill me? Ewan, you're going to regret this!"

The bodyguards exchanged a look, then loosened their grip.

Hailey nodded. "Mr. Pilsner, you're amazing."

At that moment, one of the bodyguards handed Jonah a recorder. "Mr. Pilsner, here's the recording from earlier."

Jonah took the recorder and handed it to Hailey. "You keep this. Everything the worker said is recorded. This is the evidence you need. It's enough to turn the tables for Lambert Group."

Hailey clutched the recorder tightly. Jonah had clearly prepared for everything. She knew asking for his help was the right decision.

"Mr. Pilsner, thank you. None of this would've worked out so perfectly without you," she said sincerely.

Jonah looked at her. "Ms. Young, are you really thanking me?"

Hailey nodded. "Yes, I am. Thank you."
