Chapter 131
She hung up the phone, and her heart thumped rapidly,
“Do….do you know the president of the Stark Group?”

Mariela crossed her arms and had a cold gaze, “Well, he was my fiancée and also the main sponsor behind the recent rumors about opening the Cullinan.”
Skyla was startled and broke out in a cold sweat. She stammered, “I… I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were Mr. Stark’s fiancée…”
At this moment, Skyla realized that she had been deceived by Lauryn.
She dared not offend the Stark’s villa, so the Stark’s villa’s adopted daughter made her target Mariela, and she could only do as she was told.
But Lauryn didn’t tell her that Mariela was the scion of the Logan Group and Lennon’s fiancée.
Did Lennon see Mariela being harassed and personally took care of the matter? Will she also be in trouble now?
As soon as Mariela left, Skyla immediately called Lauryn.
“Ms. Schneider, was that Mariela Mr. Stark’s fiancée?”
Lauryn couldn’t stand it when others mentioned this matter. She impatiently said, “Can you say something useful? I don’t have time to waste with you.”
Seeing that she didn’t deny it, Skyla became anxious.“You made me target her, but you didn’t mention that she is Mr. Stark’s fiancée. Now it’s all over, I indirectly offended Mr. Stark. You have to help me!”

time.”
“Hehe, idiot. If she wasn’t Lenny’s fiancée, I wouldn’t bother targeting her. Help you? I don’t have that “Ms. Schneider, I arranged for Mariela to talk to those two perverts about the case at your instruction. If you don’t help me, I will expose you! You wouldn’t want Mr. Stark to know what you’ve been doing behind his back, would you?”
Lauryn hated being threatened.
She gritted her teeth and said, “Do you dare to threaten me?”
“What I’m saying is true, Ms. Schneider. Those two old perverts have already been dealt with by Lennon. I’m next, and if something happens to me, you won’t benefit in the slightest.”
“What’s the big deal? Find an excuse to resign proactively, and I can recommend you to another law firm. If the Stark’s villa really approaches you, just insist that you didn’t know anything about those two old perverts beforehand. I’ll vouch for you if something goes wrong, but if you dare to leak a single word, I will never let you off the hook!”
Skyla said, “Don’t worry, as long as you didn’t witness it firsthand, I won’t tell anyone.”
The next day, Mariela drove to the court for the trial.
She had just finished her court hearing and ran into Jaime as she came out of the courthouse.
Mariela looked at him warily, “What are you doing here?”
Jaime looked at her affectionately and said, “I knew you worked at Vanguard Law Associates, and today you have a court hearing. I specifically came here to wait for you.”
