Chapter 247 A Reversal of Fortune
Back at the apartment, Sean lay on the sofa like a king. “I’m thirsty.”
Tracy poured him a glass of warm water.

After setting the glass down, Sean held out his injured hand. “Didn’t you say you were going to blow on it? You can do it now.”
He actually took that seriously? He’s so childish.
But, as much as she wanted to refuse, he had been injured saving her. She owed him this.
She knelt and gently blew on his wound. She was very careful, just like her mother used to be when she was little, treating it as if it a priceless

Later that night, after Tracy was asleep, Sean stood in the darkness, facing several bodyguards. His features were hidden in the shadows, but his eyes were sharp and cold, like a blade in the night.

She reached for it, but Chandler grabbed the phone and tossed it aside. “I don’t care who it is. She reached for it, but Chandler grated the phone an You’re not answering.”
The phone continued to ring, ignored.
Much later, they finished. Chandler kissed her cheek. “You’re a little temptress.”
And then he left.
Yvonne was satisfied. As long as Chandler was this obsessed with her-this time, it had been a uniform seduction, and he had been so rough he’d torn her clothes-she could get him to marry her. Then she wouldn’t have to worry about the Xanders discovering her secret and kicking her out.

Her phone rang again. Seeing the unknown number, she had a bad feeling. But she quickly calmed herself. It’s a burner phone. They can’t trace it to me. She had only kept it to find out if Tracy was dead. Glancing at the closed bathroom door, she stepped onto the balcony to answer.
An impatient voice barked, “Where the hell were you? Our man got caught because of you! When are you sending the rest of the money?”
Yvonne’s heart sank. They didn’t kill Tracy? Damn it. And now they want more money? In their dreams.
She hung up, snapped the SIM card, and threw it off the balcony.
Just then, Chandler, fresh from his shower, wrapped his arms around her from behind. “Who were you calling?”
She froze, but quickly relaxed into his embrace, turning to pull him into another deep kiss. He was immediately lost in her again.
News of the Medical AI Department’s investigation spread quickly. Rumors began circulating online that Tracy had slept her way to the top. Tracy herself was now officially under investigation.
Vector was plunged into an unprecedented crisis. Some of the tech staff, seeing no future, resigned.
It was at this exact moment that the Xander family extended an olive branch, offering to hire them at double their current salaries.
Several employees took the offer and left for Xander Corp. Sam let them go. It was only natural for people to seek better opportunities.
Simultaneously, Yvonne’s new project was being fast-tracked for launch.
Overnight, she became the center of attention.
One was now infamous, the other, the new darling of the industry. The roles had been completely reversed. The sudden shift stunned many.
If Yvonne’s project launch was a success, the Xander family would have no trouble securing investors.
