Chapter 70 The Recording
“I wanted to confirm something with you,” she paused, “I heard that you resumed working with the Clayton
family?”
Thomas fell silent for a moment and nodded slightly, “This is what Elva meant. She said she doesn’t blame anyone
and agrees to undergo the surgery, but she has one request. She hopes that we can continue to cooperate with the
Clayton family.”
What a moral kidnapping it was!
No wonder these things on the iron plate can be changed.
Elva clearly took Rosalie’s side.
Claudia believed that Elva had morally blackmailed her with her own legs, not for the first time, and it wouldn’t be
the last time either.
Although she had been prepared for it for a long time, the news still made her heart tremble intensely.
All the efforts were in vain.
Her gaze turned toward the window, and her heart stabbed painfully like a sharp needle.
Thomas saw her pale face and softened his tone, saying, “I know about your grandmother… You may have
grievances against Rosalie, but personal conflicts should be separated from major issues. Cooperation between
companies should be based on mutual interests.”
“Benefit, you promised to cooperate with the Clayton family, is it really for the benefit first?” Claudia raised her
eyes, “Isn’t it based on

Elva’s preference?”
Thoma s’s face stiffened.
“I know she has been by your side for many years, like a biological daughter, but I hope you understand, Rosalie,
along with the Clayton family, are my enemies,” Claudia’s eyes turned icy, her voice cold. “She killed my
grandmother, ruined my marriage, her father had me kidnapped, almost destroying my reputation. If you think
that’s not enough…”
In Thoma s’s shocked gaze, she took out her phone and opened a recording. The voices of two men conversing
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcould be heard.
“Waldron, it was you who hit, right?”
After the careless questioning, there was a long silence.
After a while, the voice of another man panting heavily sounded, “Yes.”
“Why did you hit him? Do you have a grudge against him?”
“It was Ms. Clayton, she gave me 800 thousand dollars…”

Claudia turned off the recording and placed it here.
Some evidence could not be presented too explicitly.
In just a few short sentences, Thoma s’s expression had changed from shock to anger.
“Where is this person now?”
The police were also investigating the incident as the truck driver had
escaped and they were unable to apprehend him, thus unable to solve the case.
“I didn’t know.”
Everyone knew that this matter was not simple, but no one would think of Rosalie.
Rosalie, a girl in her twenties, how could she have such a malicious heart.
“Where did you get this recording from?” After a brief moment of contemplation, Thomas began to doubt the
authenticity of the recording.
How did Claudia manage to find the person that even the police couldn’t find?
“It was obtained by spending money to hire someone.”
Claudia explained simply.
She was not angry after all, as Enigma’s ability could not be explained by common sense.
What she wanted was not for Thomas to immediately believe or stand on her side, but for him to go and investigate
toward Rosalie’s side.
Pedro said that when he found the truck driver, he had already been chased by someone and almost left to die in
the wilderness.
If it had been any later, this clue would have been lost.
Rosalie, this person, was even more vicious than she had imagined, and Elva, on the other hand, offered her
surgery as a condition to help Rosalie. She couldn’t believe that there wasn’t something fishy between the two of
them.
Once the seed of doubt is planted, it waits to take root and sprout.
Thoma s’s face darkened as he said, “Send me the recording, and I will reconsider the collaboration.”
Claudia nodded and sent him the recording as a file.
She was not worried about the leakage of the documents.
After midnight today, the driver will go to the police station to surrender.
“Since you will consider it, I feel relieved.”
Thomas watched as Seraphina turned and walked away, and without thinking, he spoke, “Seraphina, your sister
didn’t mean anything by it, and she wasn’t intentionally targeting you…”
Claudia chuckled.
Did Elva intentionally target her without her knowledge, but by helping Rosalie like this, it was obvious that she
wanted to disgust her.
“You are family, and I hope that in the future, you can let go of past grievances and live together in peace.”
Coexistence in peace?
Claudia laughed so hard that tears came out.
“Mr. Friedan, please go and investigate her actions, and also investigate Rosalie’s actions. After you have done so,
please reconsider. If you were me, could you coexist peacefully with them?” Her tone was light and ethereal, with a
hint of a cold and disdainful smile playing on her red lips.
She smiled gently, and the pain in her eyes spread like water in a lake.
The cool and calm voice, word by word, turned into a slap fiercely hitting Thoma s’s face.
Thomas remembered Ervin’s words: Seraphina didn’t owe them anything, it was they who owed Seraphina. They
had no right to demand anything from Seraphina.
Elva is also his child, and he can’t do anything about it.
At his age, what he most hoped for was to have his children and grandchildren gathered around him, enjoying a
harmonious and joyful time together.
Why couldn’t even such a simple wish be fulfilled?
Watching Claudia walk away, Thomas collapsed onto the spinning chair, tears welling up in his clouded eyes.
The phone on the table rang, and he numbly answered, “Hello?”
“Mr. Friedan and Ms. Clayton arrived.”
***
Claudia walked out of the door, her eyes blurred.

Since grandma passed away, her tears no longer fall for anyone, but the recent incident still made her feel upset.
She was not an iron person, and she also longed for the warmth of a family.
The most painful thing is not the malice of others toward her, but the knives of her own family stabbing her.
If Elva was kind to her, she didn’t mind living peacefully with her.

But she was not welcomed from the beginning, and she couldn’t bring herself to grovel to such a person.
She walked into the bathroom and washed away some of her restlessness with cold water. Just then, Rosalie walked
in with an air of superiority.
When she saw her, Rosalie screamed, and the thick makeup couldn’t hide the panic on her face. “When did you
come?”
Claudia glanced lightly at the contract in her hand.
Rosalie quickly hid the contract behind her back, and as she thought of something, a smile appeared on her lips.
She confidently said, “Thomas has agreed to collaborate with the Clayton family. From now on, our family will also
be able to enter the top three in Wyvernport.”
“No matter how you and Waldron teamed up, it was still not as effective as one sentence from Elva. There’s no way
around it, Elva is after all Thoma s’s favorite daughter.
“Unfortunately, oh what a pity, someone’s efforts were in vain!” Rosalie’s pink cherry lips curved into a wicked
smile.
However, Claudia remained calm with a cold expression on her face.
It is a waste of breath to say even one more word to Rosalie.
Claudia wiped her hands and walked away indifferently.
Ignored Rosalie felt a lump in her throat.
“How long do you think you can remain proud?” A cruel satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
Rosalie held the contract and walked up to Thoma s’s door. –

Finally, this collaboration was about to be settled. From then on, no one in the company dared to question her, even
Dempsey had to show her a certain level of respect.
She took a deep breath and cautiously knocked on the door.
Inside the door, Thoma s’s deep voice sounded, “Come in.”
Rosalie walked in with a smile on her face.
