Why does this server look so familiar? I have seen her before, but where?

Anya searched through her memory archive and landed on a young face identical to the server.

Lynette Lore!

Anya's eyes widened with shock and incredulity. As though she wanted to confirm her guess, she glued her gaze onto Lynette's face.

It's her! It's really Lynette Lore!

Who else other than the idiotic, wicked, and useless rich kid would have that face and that lofty attitude?!

Anya clenched her hand that was grabbing onto the wall corner so tightly that the shape of her joints showed through her skin and flesh.

One could see the amount of force she used and how ruffled she was by Lynette's appearance.

Just when she thought the server whom Sonia was talking to was only somewhat distinctive, lo and behold, it was Lynette!

Since when did Lynette need to work as a server? Wait, that's not the point—shouldn't she be abroad?! When did she come back?

She had sent a crestfallen Lynette out of the country seven years ago and even made the young woman promise to never return. But now, she had broken her promise in a short seven years and returned to Caruna! It's all because I…

Anya gritted her teeth, and her eyes were bloodshot. But very quickly, she tucked it all away and smiled maliciously.

It doesn't matter, for it's also good that she's returned. She's a force to be reckoned with.

Sure, she wasn't as smart as Anya, but she could be as wicked as Anya.

What was more, given Lynette's psychotic obsessiveness toward Toby, she believed the young woman's first mission was certainly to snatch Toby for herself.

Since she's going to snatch him, she'll have to defeat Reed first.

Hence, Anya decided to sit back and let the two women fight to their deaths before she swooped in for the take.

At that, she grinned and shifted her gaze to Sonia, feeling bad for Sonia as Sonia had her and Lynette, the lunatic, as an enemy.

That woman was a tough nut. She might be a little dumb, but she was ruthless with her moves. More importantly, she didn't know when to stop and would attack whenever. Thus, Sonia would have her hands full in fighting Lynette for a while.

At that, Anya released her grip on the wall and fished her phone out of her bag.

Lynette's appearance was undoubtedly good news for her, for the young woman could help her get rid of Sonia and also find out some of Toby's hidden forces. All in all, it would help her rather than trouble her.

That said, the original plan with Connor would require some alteration. Nonetheless, it wouldn't be a big deal, and she believed Connor would consider her plan after learning about Lynette.

While calling Connor, Anya moved her wheelchair back. She then silently retreated out of the corner and headed far away.

She not only wanted to tell Connor about Lynette's appearance but also have him find out when the young woman returned, for she hadn't gotten a single hint when she was in police custody.

Meanwhile, Sonia and Lynette never discovered Anya the whole time, and Lynette was still beside herself with anger at Sonia's words.

"Either way, you're not going to hand over the leverage, aren't you?!"

"Yes." Sonia smiled.

"Are you not afraid of the consequences, Reed?" Lynette asked grimly.

Too bad for her, Lynette's face could never look intimidating no matter what she did. Thus, not only would people not fear her, but they would even find her hideous.

What a lost cause for such an adorable face.

At that, Sonia subtly shook her head and felt sad to see such an adorable face on someone like Lynette.

"What consequences would there be? Let's hear it out. For all we know, I might get scared and might eventually yield, no, Miss Lore?" Sonia smiled.

The double 'might' infuriated Lynette, for she knew the woman was mocking her.

Sonia had first countered her 'might', and now, she deliberately used two 'mights' to counterattack.

What an evil wench!

"Need I tell you what consequences you'll face?!" Lynette glared daggers at Sonia with bloodshot eyes. "I will make your life a living hell and have you regret not agreeing to my demand. Toby's means will only be more torturous than mine. Who's to say if you'll even live at the end of it?"
