Chapter 240

These days, Gillian was too afraid to go out. She had been locking herself in her room and spending her days and nights in a daze.

Occasionally, when the phone rang, it would startle her.

Jarron asked her what was wrong, but she did not say anything. She just looked at the sky with a blank expression.

Due to her inner turmoil, she was hesitant to answer the call.

She had only said one word when Yvonne streamed angrily at her from the other end. “Gillian, you’re fucking messing with me! You gave me some incomplete prescriptions and made a fool out of me in front of the vice president. You even implicated Jack.”

“Cut your pretense!” Yvonne’s jaw tightened. “Don’t tell me you haven’t seen Olivia’s blog. Even if you haven’t, many people have reposted it online. The prescriptions you gave me were published by her on the Internet over ten years ago.”

“Impossible!” Gillian exclaimed and hurriedly hung up the phone to search for Olivia’s blog.

As expected, it had been posted more than a decade ago.

Gillian was dumbfounded.
