Plan
As Ellen refused to spill, Carla couldn't get an answer.
No one could change Ellen's mind, for she was a stubborn person.
No matter what, Carla was indebted that Ellen offered help at this critical moment.
Just like that, a day had passed.
The person had warned her to start the divorce proceedings at eleven the next morning. Otherwise, Randy and Josh would be harmed.
It was already nine at night, but Charles still hadn't found any clues.
Carla's hands were tied.
She didn't eat anything for the entire day. Though she was exhausted, she couldn't fall asleep.
Staring at her phone, she waited for Charles's updates. She also contacted Harrison to see if he had found Derela.
Time ticked by, but there were no updates.
Carla experienced a qualm of unease, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Finally, her phone rang at ten-thirty at night. Instead of Charles or Harrison, it was a call from "Zayn."
Carla fell into a daze when she saw the caller ID blinking on the screen. I wish it was the real Zayn calling…
She was at her wits' end and she was at the verge of cracking.
After answering the call, the same voice with a different tone made her regain her composure.
"Carla, let's talk."
"What do you want to talk about?"
"Carla, I shall give you a chance, " Boris announced as though he was sparing her a chance. "One hour later, let's meet at Stifling Night. Remember, come here alone."
With that, he hung up.
Carla's brows snapped together as she wondered if she should head there. Shortly after, she made up her mind to head out.
Maybe Boris knows where Randy and Josh are. I must force him to reveal their whereabouts!
With that thought in mind, Carla changed her clothes and went downstairs.
After hearing the news, Freda offered to keep her company.
Carla rejected her offer. "Boris wants me to head there alone. If you come along, he might refuse to spill."
"But I'm worried about you. What if something happens?" Freda was flustered.
"It's fine. He won't dare to hurt me, " Carla responded. She grabbed the car keys and left in a haste.
Freda thought about it and caught up to her secretly with two subordinates.
Ilali asked worriedly, "Ms. Lierger refused to let us follow her. Will she get angry when she realized we had followed her?"
"We'll keep a distance from her so she won't find out. If something happens, we can save her in time, " Freda responded in a low voice.
"You're right." Ilali nodded and sped up.
Carla sped all the way to Stifling Night. She went to Zayn's usual private room to see Boris there.
Just like Zayn, he was crossing his legs and holding a cigar in his hands. He held a wineglass in another hand and squinted his eyes at Carla through the smoke when she came in.
His gaze heated as he said, "You're here."
However, all Carla felt was disgust. She strode in and demanded icily, "What do you want?"
"Easy." Boris gestured at a document with his hand. "Sign the papers."
Carla glanced at the document and realized it was the divorce papers.
Clearly, they couldn't wait until tomorrow and wanted to get rid of her tonight.
"You don't have a choice, " Boris informed her. "The divorce must happen. Why don't you sign the papers and become my woman? I'll save your sons and take care of you. After dealing with the remaining matters, I'll bring you and the kids back to the Giblo residence."
