Observing Remy, Maggie fought to keep her fury at bay and inquired, “What is it that you're after, Remy?"

Safely tucking away his phone, Remy began, “The situation is quite clear. Your brother, inebriated and out of control, coerced Lily into a sexual act despite her objections. If you wish to prevent your brother's downfall..."

He trailed off intentionally. Maggie, her lips pressed tightly together, ventured a guess, “Is it money you're after?"

That was her only conjecture.

After all, Remy and Lily had been dismissed because of her family, likely spurring them to concoct this scheme for financial gain.

However, Remy's response came with an odd smile.

"Money isn't what we seek. We demand that you break ties with Mr. Robles."

Astounded, Maggie couldn't believe what she was hearing. Their grand scheme was not for money but to coerce her to leave Sanford!

Thrown into a state of shock and bewilderment, she faced Remy's composed expression and retorted icily, "You expect me to leave Sanford? Is this some kind of joke, Remy? Do you believe such tactics will lead to victory? Reflect on this well. Knowing that my partner is Sanford, you ought to be aware of his capabilities too.

I suggest you halt this charade and erase the footage. Don't let this backfire on you!"

Their demand was ludicrous.

Maggie was no fool.

Who was Sanford, after all?

A figure wielding considerable power in Wragos, not one to be trifled with Lightly.

Her words served as a caution, a hope that the gravity of his name might deter them from their wrong path.

Lily, pretending to be scared, scoffed, “Oh, the fear! Your words give me goose bumps."

She rose and sidled up to Remy, casting a disdainful glance at Maggie.

"Still clinging to your illusions, Maggie? Do you truly believe someone of your standing has a shot at a life of affluence through marriage?”

Maggie returned her gaze coldly.

“Whether I do or don't is none of your concern. Persist in making a spectacle of this and you'll leave me no choice. I won't hesitate to call my boyfriend right now!"
