With that in mind, Lisha Alcock made a call to Yannick Luther.
It took quite a while for the call to connect.
The lazy, indifferent voice of the man on the other end came through, accompanied by some other miscellaneous noises: "Baby, are you missing me?"
Lisha hesitated for a moment, about to speak, when she suddenly heard a woman’s giggle.
Her face changed instantly, and she couldn’t help but ask, "Yannick, where are you right now?"
"Why?" Yannick didn’t answer her question, his voice still languid and indifferent. "Do you miss me? Do you want to find me?"
She pursed her lips, her face darkening.
She didn’t believe for a second that Yannick didn’t know about the huge mess she was in.
But he didn’t say a word about it.
Even though she had been with Yannick only for his money and power, without a shred of real affection, she still couldn’t stand being so blatantly ignored by a man.
"Yannick, I need your help with something."
From the phone came the same woman’s giggle as before. Lisha took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "I’m in a bit of trouble and I hope you can help me."
"Oh?" Yannick chuckled softly, "What’s wrong?"
"Someone exposed my scandals on the blog, and we can’t delete them now. I think Gary White may be behind it. I know you have some connection with him, so maybe you could..."
"Help you plead for mercy? So he’ll let you off the hook?"
Before she could finish, Yannick laughed lightly. "What on earth did you do to offend him?"
Lisha said angrily, "I didn’t offend him. There’s a new girl in our TV series who’s not getting along with me, and Gary White has taken a liking to her and wants to help her get revenge."
"Who is this new girl you’re talking about?"
"Her name is Joanna Lawrence." Lisha gritted her teeth as she spoke, "She was noticed by Gary White the moment she arrived on set."
There was silence on the other end for a moment.
When he resumed speaking, his tone seemed to have cooled a bit: "The new girl you’re talking about, Gary White couldn’t possibly have taken a liking to her."
"Why not? Everyone in the TV series knows..."
"Lisha Alcock, even now you still haven’t figured out who you’ve really offended. You think Gary White is your enemy?" Yannick suddenly sneered, "Out of consideration for my past relationship with you, I’ll give you a hint."
Lisha suddenly had a bad feeling, and her face involuntarily paled: "A hint... of what?"
Yannick’s voice was cold, "You’re indeed in trouble because of Joanna Lawrence. However, the person backing her is not Gary White, but someone much more ruthless than him. Even if you want me to help you, there’s nothing I can do."
Lisha’s face changed drastically.
"Yannick, who is this person you’re talking about?"
Even Yannick was powerless to help?
Who in Closia had greater power and influence than the Luther family?
Apart from the White family, there was only one remaining possibility - the Heath family.
Lisha’s eyes widened in shock, and disbelief spread across her face.
The idea that had just popped into her head was quickly dismissed.
It was absolutely impossible that the person behind Joanna was a member of the Heath family.
The Heath family was the top-ranking wealthy family among the four great families of Closia.
