Refusing to Remarry: Mr. Hawthorne, You Are Out-Chapter 164: How Will She Deal with Candace Ford?
She also knew that as long as Candace Ford was around, her cousin would never have peace.
The reason Candace sought her out was simply to deal with her cousin.
Once a woman’s war begins, unless one side admits defeat or runs away, it will inevitably end in a fight to the death!
Lily Sinclair took a deep breath, and her lips, which had been slightly trembling, were forcibly steadied at this moment!
Previously, Jonas Hawthorne only said not to let Candace go out freely, but didn’t say that people couldn’t visit her. After verifying her identity, the guards at the door let Lily Sinclair in.
Meanwhile, Ian Jacobs, sent by Finn Wyatt to follow Lily, was dressed in a casual gray tracksuit, holding an apple, watching everything unfold as he took bites.
The guards didn’t pay attention to someone on the roadside eating fruit; they were somewhat lax, as their task was not protection but merely to prevent others from leaving the villa.
Ian walked around the villa and easily mingled with a food delivery truck into the backyard.
The external defenses were easily broken; inside the villa, he could come and go as he pleased.
He slipped into the servant’s quarters and changed into some sharp clothes for himself.
When he wandered back into the living room, he saw Lily Sinclair sitting on the side of the sofa from a distance, looking extremely tense!
Mr. Wyatt had instructed him to keep an eye on this woman, to ensure no lives were lost here.
However...
This was Jonas Hawthorne’s territory; who would dare to cause trouble here?
Just then, a servant came over with a cup of herbal tea. Ian Jacobs stepped forward and took the tea from the servant’s hand, saying, "I’ll take it."
The servant was momentarily startled, and when she looked up, she saw an unfamiliar face. She was slightly surprised but soon saw that he was wearing servant attire and figured he might be new.
Thinking this, she handed the herbal tea over to him.
Without saying a word, Ian knew that the highest form of acting is to fully become the character, capturing every aspect perfectly, both in expression and in mind.
Only by fooling himself could he fool others!
When Lily Sinclair came in, she was told that Candace was resting and would be down shortly.
She sat alone on the sofa, her mind in a constant state of conflict and struggle.
"Miss, please have some tea," Ian Jacobs placed the herbal tea in front of Lily Sinclair.
Lily nodded, not saying a single word, treating him as just another ordinary servant.
Ian Jacobs’s appearance wasn’t particularly handsome, just average, which benefited him greatly in his usual activities.
He often thought, if he were too handsome, surely he couldn’t have mastered such excellent chameleon skills, quickly blending into any setting where he appeared.
Indeed, looks suit the nature of the task.
Lily Sinclair was unaware of Ian Jacobs’s narcissistic thoughts. She was constantly thinking about how to quietly give the drug Winston Clayton gave her to Candace.
When she left the Sinclair Family’s house, she deliberately called 120, and the ambulance soon returned to Sinclair’s house; Candace must already know this.
Letting Candace mistakenly believe she had already drugged her cousin was part of her prearranged plan.
Because only in this way could she make Candace lower her guard temporarily...
But here, in the Hawthorne Family, she had no control over anything, so how could she deal with Candace?
Looking at the cup of herbal tea in front of her, Lily Sinclair silently clenched her teeth.
It seemed she had to find a way to lure Candace outside!
As Lily Sinclair was deep in thought, Candace Ford leisurely came down from upstairs.
She even yawned without a care.
"Oh my, who do we have here? It’s my good Lily!" she said, deliberately pinching her voice, sounding as obnoxious as possible.
Just hearing that voice made Lily Sinclair feel like a serrated knife was cutting into her heart, causing immense discomfort!
She gritted her teeth, restraining herself from rushing up to slap Candace, and when Candace came closer, she gritted her teeth and asked, "I did everything you asked. Now can you give me the photos and videos?"
Candace didn’t answer this question but gestured for the surrounding servants to leave.
Ian Jacobs was among them. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
However, he quickly hid around the corner, not truly leaving, but instead continuing to listen to their conversation in silence.
Candace, holding her waist, sat beside Lily Sinclair, stroking her big belly while soothingly saying, "Why are you in such a hurry? Those things are all upstairs in the USB drive. I’ll go get them for you later! First, tell me how you drugged your cousin, Raine?"
Upon hearing this, Ian Jacobs instinctively raised an eyebrow.
These women truly are frightening...
Silently, he took a recorder out of his pocket and pressed the record button.
Such a good show isn’t worth listening to alone; it definitely needs a big audience!
Lily Sinclair didn’t explain the process, instead, she was very persistent about the USB drive, "I’ll get it myself!"
Saying this, she started to stand up.
Seeing her like this, Candace immediately put on a stern face and reprimanded, "Stop! This is my house; it’s not a place for you to come and go as you please!"
Lily Sinclair stiffened, recalling how she had been speaking softly to her when she first came seeking cooperation. How long has it been, and she has already completely changed her demeanor?
Biting her teeth, Lily Sinclair finally said after a long time, "I only want the video and photos!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? The matter is settled, unless you think I would threaten you further?" Candace retorted, patting the seat next to her, inviting, "Come here, and tell me, how did you drug your cousin? She lost her child and didn’t make a scene?"
Candace was far too curious about Raine Sinclair’s current situation.
Unfortunately, Winston Clayton was too expensive. Asking him to visit the hospital would likely require more fees.
She had little money left at her disposal, having managed to secure some from her second uncle, and she couldn’t afford to spend it recklessly anymore.
"I did everything you asked, Candace, what exactly do you still want? Did you plan not to give me the video from the start?!" Lily Sinclair wasn’t falling for it.
Right now, she just wanted to get the video and photos back!
In fact, Candace never intended to give her the videos.
How could such a valuable leverage be given back so easily?
She was still counting on Lily Sinclair to do more for her in the future...
There were only two daughters in the Sinclair Family now, and perhaps Lily Sinclair might compete with Raine Sinclair for the Sinclair Family’s inheritance one day!
Controlling Lily Sinclair meant controlling half of the Sinclair Family, didn’t it?
Unconsciously, Candace let out a cold laugh and looked at Lily Sinclair, "Not bad, finally getting smart, huh?"
Lily Sinclair’s heart suddenly skipped a beat!
Ian Jacobs also sighed in admiration.
What a wicked woman!!
