Chapter 598:
“You may leave now.” It was clear from Darwin’s chilly tone that he didn’t want her there.
“Don’t be so distant, Darwin. We’ve known each other for years.” Minna was unfazed, as she had grown accustomed to Darwin’s constant rejection over the years. She sat next to Darwin. “Let’s eat together. You don’t mind, do you?”
Darwin’s expression darkened as he gave her a frosty glare. “Of course, I mind. You are not welcome here. Leave.”
Minna’s smile faltered, and her cheeks were flushed with a mix of frustration and embarrassment.
She turned her attention to Belinda and said, “I’m sure you don’t mind, right, Ms. Wright?”
“I don’t exactly know you,” Belinda replied, matching the coldness that Darwin had displayed.
“Are you leaving or not?” Darwin said to Minna impatiently. “If you don’t leave, we will.”
Minna’s face darkened. She gritted her teeth as a look of malice crossed her eyes. Darwin had made his stance abundantly clear. What else could she say?
Left with no choice, Minna stood up and turned to leave.
As soon as she was out in the hallway, she dropped her facade, and her face twisted into a mask of rage. She stormed back to her own private room, grabbed her phone, and made a call.

“Hello, Minna,” Macie answered the call quickly.
“You need to come up with a plan for me now!” Minna said, still seething. “I want that bitch Belinda to be taught a lesson!”
“Minna…” Macie started to say, her voice laced with caution and reluctance. “You know as well as I do that Belinda is Mr. Clark’s ex-wife. And these recent events only prove that Mr. Clark still cares deeply about her. We can’t afford to mess with Belinda now.”
Minna sneered and dismissed Macie’s concerns, saying, “There’s no one I can’t afford to mess with. Any woman who dares to seduce my man will face the consequences. Think of a foolproof plan, and make sure everything is discreet.” Her eyes narrowed with a sinister glint. “It would be best if you devise something that will make Mr. Clark dislike Belinda quickly.”
“Minna, I really think—” Macie tried to reason with her, but Minna cut her off sharply, saying, “Enough! I didn’t call you for advice; I want you to come up with a solution. Don’t worry.”
“I’ll make sure to reward you when everything is over.”
“All right, fine. I’ll try to think of something,” Macie replied, knowing that there was no point in further protests.
Satisfied with the response she got, Minna ended the call.
She was about to put her phone away when it rang.
