Chapter 355 A Snake Is Always a Snake
As Amber stepped out of the Benzania Grill House, she was still furning with anger.
In her younger years, she had been naive.
She didn’t realize that pure kindness and selfless dedication could leave one deeply scarred.
In this world, there are many unscrupulous people who cannot be treated as kind souls.
You either crush them or steer clear of them.
You must never pity or coddle someone just because they appear weak at the moment.

Often times, those at the bottom can be even more vicious, more ruthless, and moi
Walking into the parking lot, Amber pulled out Jonah’s car key and pressed the remos um a distance.
The sharp sound of the locks echoing in the silent parking lot startled a couple entwined in the shadows.
They quickly scrambled to fix their disheveled clothes, as the cramped space made it impossible to hide their activities.
At that moment, Leigh couldn’t avoid running into Robin, Shirley, and Amber.
Freezing in her place, Amber couldn’t believe her eyes–this woman was Leigh!
Leigh quickly peeled the man’s hands off her and tried to duck her head and hide.
But with Robin, Shirley, and Amber blocking the way, there was no room to escape.
Leigh could only manage an awkward smile. “Oh, it’s. Ms. Jenning! What a coincidence to see you here. Did you park your car here too?”
Amber’s mood was already sour, and seeing Leigh–now a married woman–flirting behind Jonah’s back with another man only stoked her anger.
It was late. Here they were, behaving in such a disgraceful manner in the parking lot.
Fury bubbled up inside Amber like lava ready to erupt
She shot Leigh a cold glare and asked, “Is there a rule against parking here?”

After a brief moment of panic, she quickly regained her composure, awkwardly nodding at Shirley and Robin as they hurried past her toward the exit.

“Goodness! My heart almost stops!” Leigh nearly stumbled from the shock. The man beside her felt hist legs limp and jumped aside, startled.
Robin rolled down the window and gave them a teasing smile. ‘Sorry about that! Didn’t mean to frighten
you.
He drove off, leaving Shirley and Amber laughing in the car.
Meanwhile, Leigh stood there, bewildered, staring at the car and its license plate.
“They’re driving Jonah’s car?!” she exclaimed in panic, grabbing the man’s hand tightly.
“What are we going to do, Patrick?
Just now, one of those three was Jonah’s colleague. I’ve seen her before.”
Patrick Webster pondered for a moment before pulling Leigh into his embrace and chuckling-
“What are you so nervous about? They didn’t see us do anything
“If Jonah asks about it, just tell them that she’s a teacher from the kids‘ school. What can he say to that?”
Leigh thought for a moment, and her racing heart finally settled.
She kissed Patrick softly on the cheek and said, “I–If Jonah ever finds out about us, I’ll leave with you.”
Patrick playfully smacked Leigh’s rounded backside and patted his chest, “Of course! But you need to act faster. Once we get the money, we’re leaving Draconia Then we won’t have to hide anymore!”
Leigh comforted, “Alright, my dear! I’m working on it. Just be patient. In six months, I can transfer all of Jonah’s company funds,”

“You don’t need to share these with nie. Just go to Ms. Dunn directly.”
Amber hesitated for a moment but continued, “Mr. Ramsey, this is something I need to report to you.”
Seeing the seriousness in her expression, Robin asked, “What’s going on?
“Nearly 50 partners working on the Eastvale Ecological Project have collectively demanded changes to the investment agreement.
“They threatened that if our company refuses to amend the terms, they would rather pay the penalty than
