At that moment, Lena's phone rang. When she saw who the caller was, her face changed, and she immediately gave another hand signal.
The two bodyguards stopped in their tracks immediately.
"Brad!" Lena quickly took the call.
"Lena, are you with Carla?" Brad asked.
His question took Lena by surprise. She raised her head to look at Carla. Her eyes were cold, but her voice sounded sweet. "She told you about it?"
"Yes. Carla told me you asked her for lunch." Brad happily continued, "Before I left, I told you to take care of her. You definitely did not let me down."
"Of course, I have to take good care of your sweetheart." Lena's smile looked forced. "How is it over there? Is the weather in F Nation good?"
"It's alright. Lena, Carla is alone there, and I am worried about her. If you find out that she is having any difficulties in work or life, do try to help her, " her brother requested.
"Sure, I understand."
"Pass the phone and let me speak to her, " Brad asked.
"Okay." With that, Lena pushed the phone to the other woman.
Carla walked over and answered the phone. Turning it to speaker mode, she greeted, "Brad!"
"Carla, where are you ladies eating?"
When Brad was speaking to Carla, he sounded extra gentle.
"At Silver Diamond, " Carla replied. "Harry comes to this restaurant quite often."
"Oh, I see." Brad paused for a moment in confusion before he asked, "I heard that he is divorced?"
"I think so." Carla glanced at Lena, who had an ugly expression on her face. The latter frantically gestured for her not to reveal too much.
"I also heard that…" Brad trailed off. "Nevermind. Carla, you don't have to be so polite to Lena. She is my sister, so she is also your sister. If you need anything, you can just let her know, and she will do as instructed. Right, Lena?"
"Yes, " Lena replied as soon as she heard her name. Then, she deliberately mocked, "How can I not listen to the words of my future sister-in-law?"
"Stop messing around, " Brad scolded. "Alright, I shall not disturb your ladies now. Carla, my hotline is open to you all day. If you need anything, feel free to call me anytime."
"Yes, sure. Be mindful of your health and take care, " after Carla spoke, the call ended.
She passed the phone back to Lena.
"A smart move." Lena glared at Carla. "How dare you use my brother as your shield?"
"You are a dangerous person, so I have to do that." Carla growled, "Lena, I have never hurt you, but you treated me like your enemy. You had an affair with Harry, but you blamed it on me. Additionally, you even made Lola harm me. I have yet to settle the scores with you, and you want to threaten me? Do you think I am a pushover?"
"You never thought of harming me? I see that you have forgotten all about what happened." Gritting her teeth, Lena seethed, "Back then, I wrote a love letter to Harry, but he used it to lift the foot of your table.
"I prepared a lunchbox for him, but he gave it to you instead. In the end, you fed it to the dogs.
"I gave Harry so much, but he never looked my way. Everything I did for him went to you. Do you understand the pain and sadness I went through? Is this not harming me?"
"You are blaming me for all that?" Carla asked in disbelief.
"Of course, you are to be blamed. Without you around, Harry would probably love me from the start." Lena stubbornly insisted, "You have destroyed my dreams of having a beautiful first love.Regardless, God is fair. Your family business soon went downhill. I exhausted all my means to announce the bankruptcy of Wigston Corporation and caused your engagement to be called off. Despite that, I never imagined that you would be so foolish to be deceived by Lola, who took advantage of the situation and reaped all the benefits from it.
"I hated you for four long years. After those four years, I finally found the opportunity to use you to destroy his marriage with Lola by making her turn against you. Finally, my goal has been achieved, and Harry is finally mine!"
