She was dressed casually, but she emitted a formidable aura that made those who stood near her bristle with unease.
“You sound so confident in your claims, Miss Green,” Lucinda drawled.
“Aren’t you afraid of losing face once the truth is revealed?”
Lucinda seemed too comfortable mocking Tess. She needed to be taught a lesson.
“Well, we’ll see who will be humiliated in the end.”
Tess took out her phone and contacted a friend who was living overseas. After a brief discussion, she obtained Benico Perez’s phone number.
She called Benico, putting it on speaker so everyone would hear.
Everyone held their breath as the phone rang.
The atmosphere was tense.
Tess stared at Lucinda, feeling very relaxed.
“If you admit you’re a thief and a liar now and apologize to everyone present, I may forgive you.”
Tess waved her phone.
“You have only a few seconds to decide. You must be very nervous, right?”
Lucinda pursed her Lips and then smiled. She stared at Tess, as if amused by such antics.
Tess hated the way Lucinda looked at her, but they were in a public place and Cyrus was present, so Tess needed to be careful.
Tess decided she would gouge out Lucinda’s eyes when Lucinda had been taken down and lost all dignity. Lucinda wouldn’t be able to stare at her so arrogantly then.

While Tess enjoyed her violent fantasy, the phone stopped ringing.
The voice of an old man said, “Who is this?”
It was the first time that Tess had talked to a martial arts expert like Benico. She felt nervous.
Tess tried to suppress her excitement and said politely, “Master Perez, I’m sorry to disturb you. Someone is pretending to be your apprentice here. She has been exposed but refuses to admit it, leaving us no choice but to call you for confirmation.”
Benico was silent for a few seconds, and then said, “I only have one apprentice, Aeneas Byrd.”
“I know, but this woman’s moves are similar to yours. We believe she has stolen your martial arts techniques…”
Benico was annoyed.
“What? How dare she pretend to be my apprentice and steal my martial arts moves? She must be a shameless person!”
