Rebecca laughed. "Hailey, it seems you haven't read the news yet. I suggest you take a look."
Hailey's brow furrowed. "Rebecca, haven't your past mistakes taught you anything? People who spread nothing but harm are bound to face consequences."
Rebecca remained unshaken. "Consequences? I don't believe in them. All I know is I refuse to lose. I'll make sure you never find peace."
The call ended abruptly with two sharp beeps. Rebecca had already hung up.
With her phone in hand, Hailey wasted no time checking the news.
She was eager to uncover what schemes Rebecca had cooked up this time.
Much to her surprise, she didn't have to look far. Jonah's name dominated the headlines, entangled in the rumors of a scandalous love affair.
As Hailey opened the article, Rebecca's image appeared. Suddenly, everything about last night clicked into place.
Jonah and Rebecca had been at the same club. Through tears, Rebecca had accused Jonah of attempted assault—a story that was now splashed across every news outlet.
Hailey's frown deepened, shocked by the storm that had erupted.
Without a second thought, she dialed Jonah's number.
Jonah, still in his office, quickly picked up the phone. "Hello, honey, you're awake."
When she heard his voice, Hailey felt a wave of relief. "Yes, I'm up, Mr. Pilsner. I'm having breakfast. Have you eaten yet?"
Since Jonah hadn't brought up the scandal, she chose not to mention it.
"I just ate," Jonah replied.
"Are you working now?" Hailey asked.
"Yes," he said. "I've got an important meeting soon, so I won't be able to stay on the phone."
Hailey smiled. "That's fine. Focus on your meeting."
They ended the call shortly after. Hailey put her phone down and continued eating.
