“Now he must think I’m the worst!”
Layla felt she couldn’t solve this problem; it was simply a large-scale social death scene.
“My second aunt has always been very stable in her matchmaking, how did she suddenly introduce a rich guy, and she didn’t even mention it!”
Josie scratched her head, her face full of regret. If their conversation had gone well yesterday, today would have been a bonus point, and she could have emphasized the connection between them.
Now, it could only be called a doomed fate!
On the other side.
Just as Jacob was about to head to the equipment area on the second floor, he unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance at the elevator.
“Oh, it’s you?”
Vienna, who stepped out of the elevator, found the man waiting for the elevator somewhat familiar, and then recognized him as the delivery guy who had brought her cake and exterminated cockroaches a couple of days ago.
“Miss Vienna, what a coincidence.”
Jacob was momentarily stunned, then recognized Vienna. She was wearing a black workout outfit, a more conservative style, but the tight-fitting clothes still outlined her beautiful figure.
“Are you not working today?”
Vienna asked curiously, thinking that this delivery guy was quite willing to spend money; the membership card for this gym wasn’t cheap.
“I’m not delivering for now.”
“By the way, the cockroach medicine is still effective, right?” Jacob asked with a smile.
“Very effective.”
Vienna nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then said, “Actually, I have something I want to ask you. Is it convenient to chat for a bit?”
“Sure.”
In fact, Jacob had been waiting for her to approach him because he had left a hook when he left that day, but he hadn’t received any messages on WhatsApp for the past couple of days. He didn’t expect to run into her here today.
Jacob followed Vienna back to the resting area.
After sitting down, Vienna opened her mouth to ask: “When you left that day, you mentioned seeing my husband at Nation Light Advertising. You only said half of it, and I want to know what exactly you saw?”
“Uh, did I say that?” Jacob pretended to be clueless.
“You did!” Vienna nodded seriously.
“I was just talking nonsense; I’ve forgotten.”
“Brother, to be honest, I’ve already prepared to get a divorce, and I’ve found a lawyer. I’ve also collected some evidence of my husband’s infidelity, so I hope you can tell me the truth.”
After Jacob left that day, Vienna began to suspect her husband, who had a criminal record. While he was asleep, she secretly checked Rick’s phone. Although most of the chat records had been deleted, she still found some clues.
In addition, she secretly copied the content from her husband’s dashcam. The dashcam not only had video recording capabilities but also audio recording capabilities.
Although the camera faced outside and couldn’t see the situation inside the car, the sounds could be heard clearly.
From these audio recordings, she obtained a lot of key information: her husband had actually dated two different women in one day and even conducted a PC transaction in the car.
This information was disgusting and made her completely lose hope in Rick.
So she found a lawyer to prepare for a divorce, and the lawyer suggested that she collect as much evidence as possible to clarify Rick’s financial situation.
The divorce matter had kept Vienna extremely busy these past few days; otherwise, she would have been at the gym almost every day.
Today, she had an appointment with her lawyer in the afternoon, so she came to work out for a bit in the morning.
She placed great importance on body management, especially since she was planning to start anew.
“Rick has a subordinate named Karen, and their relationship is ambiguous; that’s what I know.”
At this point, Jacob no longer concealed anything, as his purpose had been achieved.
“You actually know their names?”
Vienna was somewhat surprised. She remembered she hadn’t mentioned her husband’s name, and she didn’t even know Karen’s name; the audio only referred to her as “Karen,” so she only realized the other person’s surname was Scenty.
“Didn’t Rick ask you if you knew someone named Jacob?”
Yesterday, when they ran into each other at Buzzville City, Jacob had asked Rick in front of Karen if he should call her. At that time, Rick was scared off, and Jacob speculated that he would definitely ask Vienna if she knew him.
“He asked me if I knew someone with the name Jacob.”
“Could it be you??”
Vienna’s expression changed from surprise to shock. She was a rather smart woman and had already sensed that the man in front of her had some connection with Rick.
“My name is Jacob, and Karen is my ex-wife,” Jacob introduced himself calmly.
