Jasmine pursed her lips. “Nonsense. Of course, it wasn’t me. Yes, I can’t wait to see you dead, but based on our stormy relationship, everyone would suspect that it was me the moment anything happened to you. I’m not so dumb as to get you killed. It’s better for you to reflect and see if you have offended other people.”

Natalie flung the phone away and Yulia looked down at her. “Baby Girl, it really wasn’t her?”

Natalie rubbed her temples. “I don’t know. I called because I wanted to test her out. If she was the one who did it, I should be able to sense something wrong. But I could not sense anything at all.”
