Chapter 715:
Macie’s desperation was palpable. She had decided to risk everything now. All she wanted was a quiet life, free
from trouble, and most importantly, free from Minna’s suffocating control.
She had reached her breaking point and was determined to escape this nightmare.
The only plan she could cup with was to confess everything to Lucas. Betraying Minna was her last shot at
freedom, however slim that chance might be.
Lucas’ expression was dark, and a cold laugh escaped his lips.

It seemed he had been too lenient with Minna.
Minna still hadn’t learned her lesson and was targeting Belinda.
She was practically asking for trouble!
Lucas’ jaw tightened, and his anger was evident.
He fixed Macie with a cold, piercing stare, his voice low and devoid of warmth. “So... you've decided to switch
sides today?”
“Yes!” Macie nodded eagerly. “I hope you can see my sincerity, Mr. Clark. | have no personal grievances against
Ms. Wright. | truly don’t want to harm her! But... | don’t know what to do now. Minna hascompletely under

Since Minna was hell-bent on self-destruction, he had no qualms about letting her dig her own grave.
“I understand. You can leave now,” Lucas said, dismissing Macie.
Macie froze, caught off guard by his abrupt dismissal.
Before she could say anything, Lucas spoke again. “When Minna devises a concrete plan to target Belinda, report

His words were clear—he wanted her to act as his informant.
Macie’s eyes widened as realization dawned. She immediately straightened, her face resolute. “Okay, Mr. Clark!
I'll report to you the moment | hear anything from Minna.”
Lucas didn’t bother replying, merely waving her off.
Macie took the cue, hurrying out of the room.
As she stepped out of Lucas’ company, she inhaled deeply, her chest rising and falling with relief.
In a world like this, survival demanded self-preservation above all else. Minna couldn't blher for this.
If she crossed Minna, she might still manage to scrape by. At worst, her family’s company might go bankrupt.
