Chapter 1057

Owen first made contact with Rylantha back at the basement parking lot. He claimed that he could help her take her revenge.

At the time, Anastasia and Narissa had been standing up for Ariel, and Rylantha was so pissed off that she agreed to work with Owen.

Yesterday, Owen asked her to deliver a message to Anastasia and she agreed without giving it much thought. Alas, she didn't expect to be caught up in Owen's plan and be used as his pawn to get Anastasia away from her bodyguards.

All I did was say a few harsh things about Anastasia and Alexander nearly killed me. If he finds out about this, there's no way I'll be walking away with my life.

A chill ran down Rylantha's spine as she recalled Alexander's icy glare, and she shuddered unconsciously.

At some point, Maverick came into the room. Rylantha was still caught up in her thoughts when he suddenly hugged her from behind.

"Hey, babe."

"Ahhhh!"

"Babe, it's me! Maverick!"

Rylantha jumped in fright and slapped Maverick when she registered what was happening. "Who allowed you to come in?"

Maverick's face whipped to the side. The smile on his face instantly vanished and his gaze darkened.

Even though she was the more dominant one in their relationship now, he was still a man. There was no way he could still keep a smile on his face when he had just been treated this way. Otherwise, it would make him an utter loser with no dignity.

Rylantha's palm was stinging too and she realized she had hit him too hard, so she quickly changed her tune and apologized. "I didn't know it was you. Anyway, about the proposal you brought up the other day, get one of your people to come to the office someday to discuss things."

"I got it," Maverick responded curtly before walking off.

When he got into his car, he finally released his pent-up emotions by slamming his fist into the steering wheel.
