Chapter 399: Clearing Suspicion
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hearing Yin Mo say that she would help her, Mary was amused.
She was not a fool. How could she believe such words?
Yin Mo was locked up because she angered Yin Xun and Yin Cheng. Now, in the entire Yin family, who would take her words to heart? If she was not even allowed to enter the company, it would be strange if she had any authority.
Although she felt disdain in her heart, she could not show it on the surface.
Mary put on a troubled expression and even her tone became apologetic. “I’m really sorry, Second Miss. I really don’t dare to help you with this. You’re a kind person. You won’t make things difficult for me like those rough people, right?”
She knew how to act pitifully and guilt trip others.
Before she came over, Yin Xun had already instructed her not to help Yin Mo without being asked to. She had to wait for Yin Mo to say it herself and ensure that the entire matter had nothing to do with her.
Yin Mo was much more anxious than them. After not contacting Si Fan for such a long time, she could not take it anymore.
Mary followed Yin Xun’s advice and answered Yin Mo. Her words were effective. Yin Mo had always been gentle and kind. When she heard that Mary would be in a difficult position, she naturally would not force her.
“That’s true. If you let me go, it would be obvious. That would implicate you,” Yin Mo muttered.
At this moment, Mary’s mission was to let Yin Mo out and contact Si Fan. However, she could not rush it. She had to do this flawlessly.
She did not need to do anything. Yin Mo would definitely think of a way herself.
After the two of them were silent for a moment. Yin Mo finally figured out what to do. Mary would be fine if it was like this.
She said to Mary, “How about this? You don’t have to help me take the key. Just help me pull it out a little. I’ll take care of the rest myself, okay? You can find someone else to be a witness and prove that you’re not here. You didn’t help. I opened the door myself.”
This was perfect. Strictly speaking, this was not Mary opening the door.
“Alright, Second Miss. I’ll do it now. Then, you can open it later. Can you give me some time?”
After getting Yin Mo’s affirmative answer, Mary smiled faintly and took the key out more than halfway. Then, she pretended that nothing had happened and slowly walked to the courtyard.
The servant from earlier was standing at the door dutifully. Even though he saw Mary and recognized her, he did not speak out.
Mary praised him in her heart. He was really professional.
However, in order to get him to be her witness, Mary called him over.
“Um, I’m really sorry. I forgot where the guest bathroom is. Can you tell me?” Mary raised her hand to cover her stomach and pretended to have a stomachache.
The servant raised a hand and pointed in a direction. “Go straight ahead. It’s the second room on the left. Assistant Mary, haven’t you been here a few times? Why don’t you know where it is?”
Mary smiled awkwardly and said, “I’ve never been there before. The situation is urgent this time, so I apologize.”
After saying that, she turned her head to the side. When her gaze landed on the door of Yin Mo’s room, she asked the servant in surprise, “Hey, if I remember correctly, isn’t that room Second Miss’s? Why is there a key in it? It won’t open that way.”
‘What perfect acting,’ Mary complimented herself inwardly.
The servant followed Mary’s gaze and gestured for her to keep her voice down. Then she approached Mary and whispered, “The chairman locked the second daughter and deliberately inserted the key. If she asks you to help, don’t pull it out. Recently, the chairman has been in a particularly bad mood because of the second daughter. He flares up rather easily.”
“Ah, then I’ll have to be careful.” Mary gave a surprised look and let out two more cries before following the servant out.
As soon as she walked out of the door, she stood up straight. “My stomach doesn’t hurt anymore. I don’t have to go to the bathroom. I’m really sorry to trouble you.”
The servant said nonchalantly, “It’s fine. It’s my duty.”
Although he was puzzled, he was only a servant after all, and the two of them were of different gender, so it was not appropriate to ask for the details.
Mary glanced over her shoulder. In an effort to clear herself of suspicion, she continued to chat with the servants, never once moving from their sight.
While talking to the servant, Mary was observing the villa. Before long, Yin Mo opened the door and came out quietly. When she saw Mary, she gestured for Mary to help her divert the servant’s attention.
Mary nodded quietly, then took out her phone and began to introduce the Xintao app to the servant on the pretense of promoting it and attracting customers. She invited him to download and register on the app..
