Chapter 674

Chapter 674:
She stared at Minna, speechless, for a prolonged moment.
Minna’s voice was steady as she continued, “You were the brains behind that scheme, and you were the one who recruited the waiter. Ever wonder why I didn’t expose your involvement?”
Macie felt like an invisible, forceful grip had tightened around her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe. She grasped Minna’s meaning immediately.
Minna hadn’t kept her involvement hidden for moral reasons, but because she wanted to use Macie in her ongoing plots against Belinda. This woman was utterly merciless!
Minna reached out nonchalantly and tapped Macie’s cheek lightly, her smile cold. “Remember, Macie, your family’s entire well-being rests with the Williamson family. If I want you to live well, you’ll be fine. But if you displease me, I will retaliate against your family. You wouldn’t want that, would you?”
The menacing words gradually drained the color from Macie’s face.
With her family’s fate tied to Minna’s family, Macie had always had no choice but to act as Minna’s shadow. If Minna commanded action against someone, Macie was expected to come up with a plan.
Minna preferred carrying out the plans herself, taking pleasure in the dominance she held over those she loathed and ensuring they faced consequences.
Thus, regarding the plot against Belinda, Macie had only suggested the plan and stayed out of direct involvement. Before Macie could utter a word, Minna added, “Imagine if Mr. Clark learned that this scheme was your idea? How do you suppose he would handle you?”

Macie’s complexion turned ghostly white.
The mere thought of that caused her to gulp nervously, her body quaking.
If Lucas found out about that…
She couldn’t even begin to contemplate the consequences.
Macie shut her eyes tightly, wrestling with the pain, as if a knife were wedged in her throat.
It took her a moment to gather herself. “Minna, please, say no more. I’ll do as you say!”
Minna chuckled at this response. “Good; that’s more like it.”
But Macie couldn’t bring herself to smile.
Meanwhile, she was already plotting her next moves. Her agreement with Minna was merely a temporary measure.
She knew she couldn’t continue to be manipulated by Minna.
Minna’s actions had served as a stark reminder for her.
She realized she couldn’t afford to cross Belinda. Once outside the Williamson family’s house, Macie took several deep breaths.
Still, a heaviness pressed on her chest, stifling her breath. She needed to find a way out of this situation soon.
