Chapter 1239 I Am Afraid
Bertilla put the phone back to his ear again and asked, “How do you spell her last name?”
Bertillo put the phone bock to his eor ogoin ond osked, “How do you spell her lost nome?”
After ending the coll, Bertillo rushed to the CEO's office with the documents. Upon entering the office, he ploced the
files on the desk before reporting, “Mr. Sutton, o lody nomed Yosmin Leothom wonts to discuss motters regording
Ms. Looke with you.”
Heoring thot, Cooper—who hod just removed his jocket ond hung it on the coot rock—immediotely turned oround to
foce Bertillo. “Who's Yosmin Leothom?”
“An employee from the operotions deportment's second teom.”
Cooper did not know the womon ot oll. Yet, considering she knew Solly, he osked Bertillo to bring Yosmin to his
office right owoy.
Five minutes loter, Yosmin—who wos clod in professionol ottire—entered the office with Bertillo.
Cooper swept his goze over Yosmin's foce. Due to his excellent memory, he instontly remembered he hod seen this
womon before while hoving o meol ot Tiffony's ploce thot doy. “You're Tiffony Yerton's cousin, right?”
“Yes, I om,” Yosmin replied smilingly. “I didn't expect you to remember me, Mr. Sutton.”
Not wishing to woste time blobbering nonsense with her, Cooper odjusted his glosses ond inquired, “You soid you
wont to discuss something obout Solly with me. Whot do you know?”
“Mr. Sutton, I wont ten million,” Yosmin requested os she wolked to the desk, lowering her heod to look ot Cooper.

ond settle the score with him. Besides, I don't dore to osk for more, for I still wish to continue working in the finonce

Bertilla put the phone back to his ear again and asked, “How do you spell her last name?”
After ending the call, Bertilla rushed to the CEO's office with the documents. Upon entering the office, he placed the
files on the desk before reporting, “Mr. Sutton, a lady named Yasmin Leatham wants to discuss matters regarding
Ms. Loake with you.”
Hearing that, Cooper—who had just removed his jacket and hung it on the coat rack—immediately turned around to
face Bertilla. “Who's Yasmin Leatham?”
“An employee from the operations department's second team.”
Cooper did not know the woman at all. Yet, considering she knew Sally, he asked Bertilla to bring Yasmin to his
office right away.
Five minutes later, Yasmin—who was clad in professional attire—entered the office with Bertilla.
Cooper swept his gaze over Yasmin's face. Due to his excellent memory, he instantly remembered he had seen this
woman before while having a meal at Tiffany's place that day. “You're Tiffany Yerton's cousin, right?”
“Yes, I am,” Yasmin replied smilingly. “I didn't expect you to remember me, Mr. Sutton.”
Not wishing to waste time blabbering nonsense with her, Cooper adjusted his glasses and inquired, “You said you
want to discuss something about Sally with me. What do you know?”
“Mr. Sutton, I want ten million,” Yasmin requested as she walked to the desk, lowering her head to look at Cooper.
I know Cooper is wealthy. However, I stole this from someone else, and Cooper will definitely search for that person
and settle the score with him. Besides, I don't dare to ask for more, for I still wish to continue working in the finance
industry.
Upon hearing Yasmin's demand, Cooper leaned back in his chair and scoffed. “It's crazy how you have the audacity
to ask me for ten million even when you haven't even answered my question.”
“I believe ten million is just an insignificant figure for you, Mr. Sutton. Also, I think the item is worth the price.”
“Get out!” Cooper snapped, his expression glum.
The sudden change in his attitude caught Yasmin off guard, causing her to panic. Biting the bullet, she tried
persuading him. “Mr. Sutton, I know you're looking for Sally. Don't you wish to know the reason you can't find her?”
Not daring to negotiate with Cooper any further, Yasmin took out her phone and tapped on the screen. “I've already
emailed you. Contact me after checking it out.”
After that exchange, Cooper watched Yasmin exit the office before shifting his gaze to the computer. In his inbox
was a new unread email that he received over ten seconds ago.
Cooper couldn't fathom how an insignificant employee like Yasmin would have the nerve to utter such nonsense in
front of him. She didn't even tell me what her leverage is, but she arrogantly demanded ten million from me.
With that thought in mind, he sneered quietly and clicked on the email from Yasmin.
There was a video attached to the email. As Cooper watched the video, the nonchalant look in his eyes was
gradually replaced by grimness, and his hand that was holding the mouse trembled.
He trained his eyes on Sally, whose face was pale in the video. She was biting her lip, stubbornly remaining silent.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStaring at the screen, Cooper found his sight slowly becoming blurry. Although he could no longer see what was
happening in the video, Sally's devastating voice still reverberated in his ears.
She is such a prideful person, and she has never been humiliated like this before... I assumed she left the hospital
abruptly that day in order to find an opportunity to approach Zeno and take revenge against him. I didn't know she
had contributed so much without my knowledge.
Cooper's heart lurched, and the pain was so intense that he felt suffocated. It took him a while to adjust his
breathing before he pulled his phone out and dialed a number, his hand trembling.
“Sorry. The number you have dialed is busy at the moment...”
Cooper kept trying to call Sally, draining his phone's battery until a reminder to charge his phone popped up on the
screen. Then, he swiftly sent her a text: Please answer my calls. I admit that I care about you, not about why you
left. I've found out about your agreement with Tiffany. I don't believe in karma and am not afraid of it.
As soon as Cooper's text message was sent out, his phone shut down.
He searched for the charger frantically and plugged the cable into his phone posthaste. However, his phone
couldn't be switched on as the battery was completely drained.
He then hurried to the secretarial department and took Bertilla's phone from the desk. “What's the password?”
Bertilla didn't dare delay and promptly told Cooper the password.
Upon unlocking the phone, Cooper inserted his SIM card into Bertilla's phone. Soon, the data on his SIM card was
successfully transferred to the phone, and he saw Sally's reply from a minute ago: But I'm afraid.
