Chapter 203
"Hey, fatty, which family are you from?" Melina asked scornfully. She knew that anyone who could command
Samuel wasn't a nobody. But so what? The Quinlan family's connections in Riverdale were not something an
ordinary second-tier family could touch.
"lI am Yolanda Henderson."
Yolanda's expression grew colder when she heard Melina address her as "fatty".
"Yolanda?"
Melina shrugged nonchalantly. "I never heard of you!"
Johnny scoffed and said, "Lettell you, my girlfriend is the young lady of the Quinlan family. Whoever you are,
you're finished today!"
"And you!" He pointed at Sharon. "You and this bitch are in cahoots, so don't think you can escape either!"
He relished the thought of revenge while riding high on Melina's backing,

"And it's not just you who will be in trouble; your families will be affected too! You'll never be able to show your
faces in Riverdale again!"
"You're pretty arrogant! Haven't you heard of my name?"
Upon seeing Yolanda's lack of reaction, Melina added, "With just a flick of my
finger, | can make you wish you were dead!"
"You're from the Quinlan family?"
Yolanda smiled lightly while casually lifting her cup to sip on her juice.
"If you know I'm from the Quinlan family, then shouldn't you be begging for mercy?"
Yolanda ignored Melina's taunts and continued, "Quinlan Pharmaceuticals is your family's business, right?"
"Looks like you're not as much of a country bumpkin as | thought. But unfortunately, even with sknowledge
of who | am, | won't let you off the hook!"
Johnny and his friends, who stood behind Melina, wore mocking expressions. They were convinced Yolanda was
just putting on a show.
At that moment, Yolanda took out her phone and dialed a number.
"Are you calling for help?"
Melina scoffed. "Lettell you, it won't do you any good today!"
"Hello? Two things—First, terminate our partnership with Quinlan Pharmaceuticals starting tomorrow. Second, fire
Johnny!"
Earlier during the meal, Yolanda heard Sharon mention that Johnny, through his connection with Melina, worked
in the purchasing department of Cinnamine Pharmaceuticals. In addition to his basic salary, he was also able to
take advantage of his position to collect kickbacks, which made his life quite comfortable.
After hanging up, Yolanda looked up at Melina.
"You'll find out soon enough whether the help | called for was useful."
Johnny's smirk grew wider. "You think you can fire me? | can't wait to see how long you can keep this act up!
Looks like Sharon's friends are just as clueless. This lie will be exposed quickly!"

Melina paid no mind to Yolanda's words.
"Who do you think you are? If you can make Cinnamine Pharmaceuticals terminate its partnership with us, |
might as well run for mayor of Riverdale!"
"Hahaha! Melina, let her keep deluding herself a little longer; she'll be slapped in the face soon enough!"
"Seriously, how could this ugly duckling have such power? | wouldn't believe it even if you killed me!"
"Lettell you, don't think you can bluff your way out of this. Those who offended Melina either ended up
bankrupt or couldn't get back into high society. There's no good ending for them!"
"You better think carefully. If you beg for mercy now, maybe you'll have a chance to live..."
Melina's expression turned smug as she listened to her companions’ flattery.
"Stop pretending. If that phone call of yours actually worked, I'd not only spare you but might even kneel and
apologize!"
From her point of view, the idea that one phone call could determine the fate of the Quinlan family was more
absurd than a doomsday rumor.
Just as they were all busy mocking Yolanda, Johnny's phone suddenly rang.
