Irene fixed her gaze on Liera, a mocking sheer in her eyes. “I bet you don’t have the guts to say it, unless you want us both to go down together.
Llora’s lips curved faintly, her expression unreadable. She said, “After I’m gone, I’ll arrange again. As for what happened between us back then, I’ll bury it deep and take it to my grave!

trene slowly settled into the chair, eyeing Liora with suspicion. “Who knows if you’re telling the truth? And who knows if that troublemaker son of yours
won’t stir up more drama.”
Liora sneered, “What are you so afraid of? Sanford is all I have left. Just promise me you won’t trouble him, and keep your son away from him too. I’ll
make sure he stays far away from all of you.”
Irene could no longer contain her rage. She storm give birth to Yorick’s child?

“I wish you and your son would vanish from the world. It should have been you who drank that poison back then. It should have been you!” frene snapped.
Liora’s own temper flared just as suddenly. “If Yorick hadn’t drunk that poison for me back then, you’d be rotting in jail right now. I kept my promise to keep your secret, but you owe me an apology.”
“You want me to apologize to you? In your dreams!” Irene snarled, then slapped Liora viciously across the face before stepping back.
“If you hadn’t been clinging to Yorick like some desperate stalker, I never would have been driven to want to kill you. But now, I don’t even have to lift a finger. You deserve to die!” said Irene.
Liora was about to retort when a violent fit of coughing seized her. Blood gushed from her throat, staining her lips a deep red. Irene froze.
“Mom!” Sanford burst into the room and was met with a horrifying scene. He frantically pressed the nurse call button above the bed, then grabbed Irene by the collar, demanding, “What did you do to my mom?”
“I didn’t do anything!” Irene snapped.
Sanford shoved Irene aside and snapped, “Then what the hell are you doing here? You’re happy now, aren’t you, seeing Mom like this?” He impatiently shoved Irene away, causing her to stagger.
Not wanting to stoop to Sanford’s level and risk losing face, Irene gave a disdainful snort and turned on her heel to leave.
“Mom, are you alright?” Sanford rushed to sit by Liora’s bedside, gently patting her back to help her breathe easier.
Liora shook her head weakly, forcing a small smile. “I’m fine, Sanford. Don’t

Liora shook her head weakly and managed a faint smile. “Nothing. She just came to gloat, that’s all.”
“That venomous woman!” Sanford muttered through gritted teeth, about to storm out after Irene when Liora caught his wrist.
“Let it be,” she said wearily. “We’ve said all there is to say. From now on, we’ll stay out of each other’s way.”
Nareigh, Jonathan pored over Werner’s hospital transfer records. All the payments went to the same institution, to the same account registered to Liora,
Jonathan frowned. The situation was getting more complicated.
If he told Cathy that Werner had transferred all the money to Liora, he didn’t know if she would

He dialed the secretariat. Someone asked, “Mr. Lynn, you requested to see me?”
Jonathan ordered, “Book me a flight to Shaville tonight.”
“Yes, Mr. Lynn.”
The secretary had just left when Jonathan’s phone buzzed with a new message.
Sanford: Keep your mother in check. If she bothers my mom again, don’t blame me for what I’ll do
to your family.]
Jonathan stared at Sanford’s message for two seconds, his expression darkening.
