“Don’t worry about me. I’ll just grab my things. Since I’ll be staying upstairs, it’s not good to leave them here cluttering Robert’s room.” Elsa quickly replied, then turned to pack her belongings.
“Hey! When the newlyweds are separating, it’s not a good sign. It could affect their relationship. It’s best for the couple to always sleep together!”
Elisa felt a bit embarrassed when she heard the doctor’s words.
Robert and Elisa are husband and wife, yet no love exists between them. Like Mr. Fischer said, whether they slept together or not, there was no difference.
Now she managed to get a job that paid around six thousand dollars a day, and with that, she could save up for when Robert woke up and left for good.
But now, thinking of her grandfather’s joy upon learning she might be pregnant, Elisa felt guilty. She didn’t want to disappoint the Fisher family.
So, she decided to give it another try.
Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt a sharp pain where she had been injured yesterday.
Elisa hissed in pain and thought that carrying on the family line for Robert should wait until she was healed.
So, Elisa smiled at Dr. Smith and walked out of Robert’s room.
As soon as she returned to her room, she would start recording. For her, nothing was way more important right now than making money.
After packing her things, Elisa simply informed them that she was leaving first, and the doctor just smiled and nodded.
When Elisa entered, Robert felt much more comfortable. The effect was even better when she spoke a few words than when he listened to the ten–minute recording.
Instantly, he was certain that Elisa’s voice could cure his headache, However, he was stubborn and preferred to hide it. He only needed the streamer unless something happened, and he had no other choice because he would never choose Elisa.
“She’s gone
gone, Robert,” Smith said to the man pretending to be asleep after Elisa left.
Robert slowly opened his eyes. “Good, now I finally don’t have to endure her torment.”
“So, are you ready to wake up?”
“I’m still waiting for the right moment.”
As soon as Elisa returned to the room and set up all the recording equipment, and since there were no content restrictions, she randomly found some lines that she usually dubs.
The advantage of her voice line allowed her to easily master various roles.

She hoped this softhearted God of Wealth wouldn’t get tired of hearing her voice so quickly and let her
carn more money.
Although Mrs. Fischer gave her monthly money, that wasn’t little for her. It was huge. However, she still wanted to be able to support herself.
After recording the audio, Elisa quickly sent it off, and within seconds, the day’s money was sent to her. She stared at that huge amount as if she were dreaming. It was too unreal!
After making money, she turned on her phone and dug up the evidence she had saved yesterday. She didn’t know how the situation was at the police station. But all she knew was that Armani and Suelen had hired those people, and they had given the order to hurt her.
Jorge called Richard early in the morning. However, his secretary answered, saying her boss would call back soon. But Jorge waited for hours, and there was no call.
He was ready to pay a visit, but the guard stopped him at the gate.
This was very strange, he didn’t understand why Richard’s attitude towards him had changed so drastically,
By the time he got home, he was feeling very anxious.
The news of Suelen being taken away by the police hadn’t been disclosed to the media yet, but it was only a matter of time.
Once the news broke, it would be a significant blow to Barson Group.
“Dad, my mom has been taken for so long. Why haven’t they released her yet? Don’t they care about her identity and status?” Olivia spoke, crying, while her eyes already turned red.
Jorge was worried and desperate. He had no choice but to call Sandro again. He needed to know what was happening at that police station.
“Mr. Barson, how can I help you?” Sandro asked, already knowing what it was about.
“Sandro, I want to ask. How was the case last night? What’s going on?”
“Mr. Barson, the current situation is a bit complicated.” He sighed. These few people insisted that Mrs. Barson instructed them, and it was also consistent with Miss Armani’s confession.
“Impossible! How could my wife do such a thing? Someone must have framed her! It’s just a confession. Is there any evidence?”
“Mr. Barson, don’t get carried away. Confessions are also evidence. Besides, Mrs. Barson did know these people,” he added.
Jorge was at a loss for words.
“Just tell me, when will my wife be released? Can you tell?”
“Unfortunately, we don’t know when she will be released.”
“Sandro, I suspect someone wants to attack me in this matter! You must investigate carefully. Can you bear the consequences if this affects the company’s listing?”

“Mr. Barson, I understand that you are a businessman. But your wife cannot clarify the accusations; everything points to her. What can I do? We have to wait!” The prosecutor’s lawyer replied, and Jorge hung up the call with a chest heaving with anger.
He decided to go to the police station himself to find Richard. This matter needed to be addressed, he couldn’t wait any longer.
Jorge arrived at the police station and headed straight for the chief’s office,
As he approached the door, ready to knock, he noticed it was slightly ajar and heard two people talking inside. It was Sandro and Richard.
“Jorge Barson called me again. Chief. Are you really not going to help him?” Sandro asked respectfully. Richard took a sip of coffee from his desk.
“Help him? How can I help him? He has crossed someone he shouldn’t have, Richard replied..
“Someone Jorge Barson shouldn’t have crossed? Who could that be?” Sandro inquired.
Jorge strained to hear more, but the voices inside the office gradually lowered. Not wanting to attract unnecessary attention as a staff member approached, Jorge quickly left.
As he got into his car, he kept thinking about the conversation he had overheard. Richard said he had crossed someone he shouldn’t have.
Who could be so powerful that even the police chief was powerless against them?
Someone must have tried to screw him over, and he just couldn’t figure out who that person was.
He had worked hard in the business world for many years and made many enemies, but he feared no one had that ability.
He racked his brain but couldn’t come up with an answer. Finally, he thought of Elisa. If she withdrew her complaint, perhaps the matter could be resolved. Even if someone wanted to use this against him, they would have no evidence.
Without saying anything else, he just headed towards the hospital.
It had been a long time since he had seen his ex–wife. It had been two months since Elisa brought his mother to the hospital. He had never come to visit, and he didn’t even know what her illness was, just that she needed surgery and that surgery was expensive,
He remembered the scene when Elisa came to his company begging for money. He thought if Elisa agreed to withdraw her complaint, he would give her the money.
Elisa and her mother needed money so desperately; she would surely agree.
Feeling confident, Jorge headed to the hospital.
After asking for a long time, he found out which ward Beatrice was staying in, but the people at the hospital wouldn’t let him in.
“I’m here to visit the patient. Why are you blocking me?” Jorge asked irritably.
“Mrs. Samers is a VIP patient in our hospital, and if you don’t have authorized entry or a scheduled

appointment, you can’t visit her, explained the receptionist.
“A patient in the VIP ward? Did you make a mistake? She couldn’t even pay the hospital bill a few days ago! Help me check if there’s anyone with the same name and surname,” he ordered, and the woman stared at him.
“Sir, there is only one patient admitted named Beatrice Samers in our hospital, and she really couldn’t afford the hospital fee a few days ago, but now she has been transferred to the VIP ward of the hospital,” he explained, and a great doubt arose in his heart.
How had she managed to get the money? And he knew very well that just one VIP consultation in this hospital cost more than a thousand dollars, so who would have thought she would be admitted here?
Could it be that they used Beatrice to incriminate him, and in return, they would pay for her medical expenses? That was the only possibility. Otherwise, how would his ex–wife and daughter manage to come up with so much money for that?
