Chapter 290: The situation is unfavorable

Book:The Blind Wife Published:2024-6-3

Yolanda knew Jaime’s current state of mind very well.
He had high self-esteem and used to behave well in front of everyone. And now that he had a broken leg, he really hated it when people brought up the subject.
But Yolanda said such things now, especially when Umberto was also Jaime’s arch-rival, and arguably even the one who caused his leg injury.
So Jaime was now so angry that none of the servants around him dared to approach him.
Yolanda felt smug in her heart because that was the only way Jaime would pay attention to the matter.
The next moment, Jaime said to her:
-Bring me the phone.
Yolanda hurriedly handed it to him.
Jaime said angrily after reading it:
-This must be done by Umberto, he really wants to go against me.
Jaime was sure that Umberto could guess that he had withdrawn those reports for her.
However, he had republished the reports on the Internet and even promoted them vigorously. Such behavior was to be despised.
Jaime slammed angrily on the dining room table, and the thick glass above it cracked slightly with a loud noise.
Yolanda was taken aback, but she approached him and took his hand gently in concern, saying:
-Don’t get so excited. Yoli is already in this state anyway. Don’t hurt yourself.
He finished quietly and immediately asked someone to bring the medicine box. This kind of worried look and those words really made Jaime feel a little comfortable.
Yolanda bandaged him tenderly and pretended to sigh unintentionally:
-I seem to be the one who is unfit for business. After my father was imprisoned, I did my best to support Yoli in such difficult conditions, but I still couldn’t do it. Let’s not talk about it, lest it affect your mood.
With a bit of bitterness on his face, he held Jaime’s hand and blew carefully on his wound.
It had to be said that Jaime’s cold, hard heart shuddered for a moment.
For the first time, he looked at Yolanda without any utilitarianism and said:
-These messages cannot be withdrawn, otherwise it will have the implication of wanting to cover up.
-The most important thing now is to completely suppress that couple, not to let them go to court. After a few days, you can re-register a company and change Yoli to a new name -Jaime continued and reminded -Don’t keep selling those clothes.
Yolanda looked at him eagerly as she nodded desperately:
-Yes, I’ve already taken care of those clothes and I won’t sell them anymore. Don’t worry about that couple I’ve already dealt with, they won’t….”.
Jaime shook his head and interrupted her:
-First look to see if there is any news of them!
I had a bad feeling that the first thing he did after his daughter’s death was to make a scene on the news and have Yolanda come out and apologize instead of paying compensation.
This couple must not have been people who needed the money, how could they be bribed by Yolanda’s money. And the bottom line was that now that Umberto had intervened, who knew if anything had changed.
-I don’t think so. When I took the money out, the couple clearly said nothing and their attitude was not as intense as before. The money I gave them was also more than enough for them to have another healthy child and live a good life. What kind of person is so stupid that they would choose not to have the money? -Yolanda muttered.
Before the words could be uttered, she froze staring at the phone screen.
Seeing her like that, Jaime had already guessed it:
-Are they starting to cause trouble?
Yolanda gaped for a while before handing her phone to Jaime:
-They’re on live, -How is it possible and how does this couple think? Since they are normal people, they should have taken the money and left the matter alone. For the sake of a sick child, they don’t even want the money.
At that moment, the maid who had been standing behind the two raised her eyebrows, a hint of sarcasm flashing across her face.
Yolanda had grown up in an environment where even her parents had bonded over their interests. Julio also treated her with more interest than affection, and her mother was quite kind to her, but there was no absolutely pure affection either.
So she did not understand true affection at all. In her mind, all so-called affection could be measured in terms of interests. Feelings could also be substituted, and those that did not serve must be discarded.
In the live broadcast, the couple’s faces were very vitiated with tired faces and looked very heartbreaking as they addressed the camera.
-My daughter’s health is bad, and she usually wears mostly affordable products that don’t present any problems. But she only wore Yoli’s clothes and had problems after only one day.
-We never thought that an article of clothing could kill someone, and the first time my daughter died, we went to have a coroner examine the cause of death. Ruling out all sorts of possibilities before finally determining that it was the clothes.
Said the woman, showing the dress to the camera.
It was stuffed in a bag, and when the camera did a sweep, it was clear that the quality wasn’t really good.
-When I bought this dress, I could smell the pungent odor and the quality was not particularly good. But I thought Yoli is also a famous brand, and the price of this dress is not cheap, so there won’t be a big problem. Maybe it has been stored for a long time and has bad smell. I even washed it several times until it had no smell before I let my daughter wear it. But who would have thought that… -the woman said while crying a lot.
The husband hugged her with a very sad face, but at least he had a little more sense than his wife and controlled his emotions in front of the camera and took out the clothes test report.
-This is the clothing test report and this is the autopsy result of my daughter. All the evidence is here. We will not let this matter rest, we will not let my daughter die in such an inexplicable way, we must get justice for her.
The husband’s eyes looked straight into the camera full of determination.
Yolanda even felt stung by this look, panicking in her heart, walking around Jaime grumpily:
-This man is crazy….
Before the words could be spoken, they were cut off by a voice on the video.
The husband flashed two bank cards in front of the camera and said with a cold smile:
-This is the money Yolandanos gave privately. He wants to use this to shut us up.
-Yolanda, I am here to remind you that there are many things in this world that cannot be solved with money, and I am afraid that you, who are petty and venomous, do not understand my words at all.
Yolanda’s fingers were clenched, her eyes filled with hatred and a part horror.
“This person has really brought up all these things on the live broadcast, and even made his name public.”
Yolanda’s mind was a little foggy, instantly unsure what to do. She hurried to speak to Jaime:
-We can’t let them talk anymore, they want to sue me.
-Take it easy -Jaime said but the melancholy in his face became more serious.
The moment he said this, Yolanda immediately shut up. If Jaime could say this, she must have had an idea.
This matter was no longer something she could solve. Only Jaime could help her.
After Yolanda realized this, she sat down next to Jaime and watched him quietly. When she saw him thinking about something, she didn’t disturb him even though she was anxious.
The live video was still running and the couple’s statements had just received the support of almost all internet users.
All the comments were expressing their support for the couple.
Yolanda felt more nervous and scared.
Her reputation was completely ruined, and now she just hoped that this matter would not go to court. Otherwise she might even be sentenced to prison.
She was terrified at the thought of being thrown in jail like her father, she looked at Jaime anxiously.
Jaime finally spoke:
-The situation is not in your favor now, you can’t let that couple put you on trial.
Then he made a call to his men.
Yolanda was nearby and heard a respectful voice on the other end of the line:
-Mr. Seco, what are your orders?
-Help me investigate a couple, block their location as fast as you can and send someone to check on them.
Jaime’s voice was nonchalant as he said these words that made people flinch as they heard them.
Yolanda froze for a moment, and then joy erupted on her face.
