An hour later, Tessa arrived at Sarah's office.
She placed the contract on Sarah's desk and said, "Ms. Young, | have completed the task you assigned. The five-
year legal advisory contract has been signed, and the 15 thousand dollar fee has been transferred to the firm's
account.
"Additionally, I've secured three payment dispute cases and one patent infringement case. All four cases are
under general agency agreements, with the attorney fees paid upfront. Including the 15 thousand dollar legal
advisory fee, the total comes up to 80 thousand dollars.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the finance department for the transaction records. | also have the
payment receipts right here."
With that, Tessa clicked her phone's photo album open and showed Sarah the payment receipt screenshots. "I've
also covered the law firm's losses.
Sarah flipped through the contracts in disbelief. Upon seeing the signature and stamps on it, her eyes flashed
with shock. "Yates Corporation... Samuel Yates is your..."
Tessa smiled. "He's my dad."
The contract slipped from Sarah's hand and landed on the floor with a thud. Sarah whipped her head up in
shock. "You're the heir of Yates Corporation?"

After facing a series of troublesevents, Tessa was no longer interested in keeping a low profile. She said
proudly, "That's right."
Before Sarah could even process her thoughts, she received another call.
"Ms. Young, what background does Ms. Yates have? How does she know the president of Jacobson Corporation?
Our president, Mr. Loewe, was admitted to the hospital last night after getting beaten up by Mr. Jacobson's
bodyguards.
"Then, early this morning, auditors and tax authorities showed up at our company for an inspection. I've been
asking around and found out that all of this was on Mr. Jacobson's orders."
Jacobson Corporation? Sarah's face turned ashen, and she broke out in a cold sweat. She hung up the phone,
feeling her heart pounding in her chest.
"You... You know the president of Jacobson Corporation?"
Tessa crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at Sarah coldly. "Yes. He's my fiancé, the rumored sugar
daddy who drives a Cullinan."
Sarah stuttered, "I-I'm sorry. | didn't know you were Mr. Jacobson's fiancée..."
At that moment, Sarah finally realized that she had been fooled by Jacqueline.
She didn't dare offend the Jacobson family, so when Jacqueline asked her to harass Tessa, she had no choice but
to follow through. However, Jacqueline didn't inform her that Tessa was the heir
Yates
Corporation and Stephen's fiancée.
Now, considering that Stephen had witnessed Tessa being harassed and even took matters into his own hands, it
was safe to say she was done for.
As soon as Tessa left the office, Sarah immediately called Jacqueline.
"Ms. Sanders, is Ms. Yates... Mr. Jacobson's fiancée?"
Jacqueline couldn't stand hearing those words and replied impatiently, "Just get to the point. | don't have tfor
this nonsense."
Noticing that she didn't deny it,
Sarah panicked. "You askedto make things hard for her, but you didn't tellshe's Mr. Jacobson's fiancée.
What am | supposed to do now have indirectly offended him. You have to help me!"
Jacqueline sneered. "You idiot. If she wasn't Stephen's fiancée, why would | waste my ton her? You expect

negotiate with those two geezers

because you askedto. If you
don't help me, I'll expose you! I'met
sure you wouldn't want Mr.
Jacobson to know what you've done behind his back, would you?"
Jacqueline hated being threatened. She gritted her teeth. "Are you threatening me?"
"I'm simply stating the facts, Ms. Sanders. Mr. Jacobson has already dealt with those two geezers, and I'm going
to be next. If anything happens to me, you won't be able to get out scot-free either."
"It's not that big of a deal. Just find an excuse to resign, and I'll recommend you to another law firm. If the
Jacobson family really does clooking for you, just insist you had no idea of those two's true character.
"If anything happens, I'll cover for you. But if you dare leak even a word of this, | won't let you off the hook."
Sarah replied, "Don't worry. As long as you help me, I'll keep my mouth shut."
The next day, Tessa drove to court for a hearing.
After finishing the session, she was about to leave the courthouse when she bumped into Zachary. She looked at
him warily. "What are you doing here?"
Zachary looked at her with an affectionate gaze. "I know you work at Shelton Law Firm and that you had a
hearing today, so | waited here to see you."
Tessa narrowed her eyes, anger flickering within them. "Did you look into me?"
