Lauren then continued with a more serious look on her face, “But they aren’t upstanding people. They will keep asking us for money, and larger sums of money each time.We can’t let that happen.”

“Aargh! What do we do then? We can’t let them post that video! My whole life will come crashing down if that video gets out!”

Cassie pulled her hair as she spoke.She had never been this desperate before.She was sweating, yelling, and crying hysterically all at the same time.Her current countenance worried Lauren to death.She was scared that her precious daughter would suffer a mental breakdown because of this issue.

To avoid this, she sighed deeply and said comfortingly, “I won’t let that happen to you, honey.I’ll think of a way to solve this issue before it escalates. Just trust me.”

“You better hurry up, Mom! You better hurry up. Those guys gave me only five days to make up my mind. Time is not on our side, so think of something fast!”

Cassie ordered disrespectfully.

Lauren became even more anxious after hearing her daughter’s order.She tapped her right foot on the floor nervously and thought for a while.

All of a sudden, she said, “If we want to solve this matter once and for all, we have to get rid of those men.But how do we go about it? We don’t have any power or money to hire skillful assassins to do the dirty work.Worse still, we can’t ask Luke for help.”

The next second, she snapped her fingers as if she had realized something.She then held Cassie’s hand and added seriously, “We have to ask Charis for help.”

“That’s a very bad idea, Mom.What if she tells her father? I don’t trust her concerning something this big.She might not be on our side this time!”

Cassie shook her head vigorously.

“I know we shouldn’t trust Charis completely, but we aren’t spoiled for choice now.She’s our only option.”

Lauren had serious trust issues.

But now that she was in a tight corner, she could only hope that Charis was as nice and kind-hearted as she seemed to be and that she would agree to help them.She put a call through to her immediately.

Charis thought the matter through after hearing Lauren out.
