★★Two Days Earlier...★★
Evelyn paced quietly in her living room, her phone pressed tightly against her ear.
"You will have to do everything within your power to execute the plan... Okay?" she said firmly, her voice low but heavy with intent.
"Yes ma'am," came the response from the woman on the other end. Her voice was clear and determined. "As long as you'll keep to your promise, I'll do even more than you ask."
"Don't worry," Evelyn said, her lips curling into a sly smile. "Once it's done, I'll give you more than enough money to settle your debts and build a new life for you and your family."
"Alright, ma'am. You'll hear from me very soon," the woman replied.
The line disconnected.
Evelyn leaned back in her chair, her eyes narrowed as she stared at nothing in particular.
'I've worked too hard to let anyone steal what belongs to me… If you're in my way, I will take you out. Quietly. Permanently.'
Her smile lingered, but her heart was cold.
