Chapter 315
Diana, having heard Yvonne's explanation, pointed at Yolanda. "My eldest daughter has always been
incompetent, so it's no surprise she could engage in bribery! You should take her away and investigate
thoroughly!"
Yolanda wasn't shocked by this reaction. If one daughter had to be sacrificed, Diana would unhesitatingly push
her forward at this stage.
Harold scrutinized Yolanda, not rushing to have Yehuda take her away. His interest lay in the possibility that
Yolanda might have genuinely secured the project.
"You're saying you didn't bribe anyone?" A glint of interest flashed in Yehuda's eyes. "What evidence do you
have?"

"My dad's assistant, Riley, can testify!" Yvonne seized this chance as if it were a lifeline.
"I'll call Riley right now and bring him here!" She quickly called him.
Half an hour later, Riley arrived at the Henderson residence, unaware of the chaos unfolding.
"Mr. Henderson, you called forthis late?" Riley asked.
Upon entering the living room and seeing so many people, he froze.
"Did you conspire with Yvonne to deceive me?" Harold confronted Riley immediately.
"Uh..." Riley hadn't anticipated this turn of events and looked at Yvonne for help.
But Yvonne, in her self-preservation instinct, had already thrown him under the bus.
"Speak the truth!"
Harold was both furious and embarrassed. "After all these years, you betray my trust like this? How could you do
this to me?"
"Mr. Henderson... | was forced to!" Realizing he couldn't hide anymore, Riley confessed, "My dad has been ill and
needs urgent surgery funds. Yvonne promised500 thousand dollars! That's why | went along with her
scheme..."
He explained while trying to justify his actions, "Besides, this isn't true betrayal; Yvonne is your daughter! You're
all family—I just told a little white lie!"
"How dare you still argue?" Harold was even angrier now. "I pay your salary! You're fired! Go to the office
tomorrow to settle your final paycheck. | never want to see you again!"
"Mr. Henderson! | was wrong... please giveanother chance!" Riley begged, desperate to keep his decent job.
"If you had known it would cto this, you should have acted differently! Given your past efforts, I'll have
finance process your salary for this month as normal."
Riley stood there, despair etched on his face, realizing his greed had cost him everything.
"Officer, can you take Yolanda away now?" Yvonne looked shaken and shot a resentful glance at Yolanda.
Though she had made a mistake, wasn't Yolanda's creven greater?
If Yolanda were convicted of bribery, her life would be ruined.
Then, Yvonne would be the sole heir to the Henderson family, free from struggling for approval and recognition.
Diana's earlier attitude had truly disheartened her, and recognizing Diana's true nature, she knew she had to
look out for herself.
"Yolanda has committed a serious mistake, but this was all her own doing, and this has nothing to do with the
company," Yvonne said calmly. "My father was hospitalized yesterday; we can all testify he was completely
unaware of this situation."
