Instead, she looked directly at Melody and asked, "You're sure the 30,000 dollars I gave you was hush money, right?" For a brief moment, Melody's expression faltered, but she quickly nodded. "I'm sure." "Okay." Nyla calmly pulled out her phone. "I recorded our call last night." As soon as she said that, Melody's face turned pale.
Gabriel, sitting nearby, tensed up, his expression darkening. His eyes narrowed, and his hands clenched on the table instinctively.
He hadn't expected this-Nyla had been cautious enough to record the conversation even in that situation.

When the recording ended, Nyla put away her phone and looked coldly at Melody. "If you don't want to admit it, I can show the timestamp of the recording. Or we can call the police and have them pull the phone records." With every word Nyla uttered, Melody was ashen with despair.
