Meredith Rowan never dreamed she would receive a call from Shirley Thorne like this.
The call was from Shirley Thorne's number, but the voice on the other end was Susan Langley's.
Susan Langley had no other choice.
She was genuinely terrified of Shirley Thorne.
But she was also afraid of Meredith Rowan, fearing she would speak ill of her to Warren.
That's why she adamantly refused to use her own phone, first claiming she didn't have the number saved, then saying her phone's battery was leaking and she couldn't make calls.
'Keep it simple. Stop with all the theatrics.'
Shirley Thorne ignored her flimsy excuses, pulled out her own phone, and ordered, "Here. Call her!"
She wasn't afraid of Susan Langley using her connection to her father-in-law's mistress as leverage. Right now, all she wanted was to reclaim the billionaire's assets.
