Return For Revenge

Samantha Miller, carrying her eight-month pregnant belly, struggled to climb the stairs, leaning on the stair railing, preparing to go to her room to get her prenatal examination records.

As she passed her mother's room, voices of conversation leaked through the slightly ajar door.

"Mom, did Samantha go out?"

"Yeah, Uncle Tom took her to the hospital for a prenatal checkup."

It was the voices of her mother, Sarah Rodriguez, and her sister, Suzy Miller.

They seemed to be discussing something.

Driven by curiosity, Samantha approached.

Sarah's voice became clearer through the crack in the door.

"Is everything taken care of?"

"Mom, do you doubt my abilities? I've already bribed the doctor and nurse. Once she's in the delivery room, she won't come out again. When she dies, the child in her belly will smoothly inherit her shares. We have plenty of opportunities to take over."

"Haha..." Sarah chuckled triumphantly. "Samantha can't even dream that it was you who drugged her back then, sending her to someone’s bed. She thought she was just drunk. She's as foolish as her dead mother."

Suzy sneered, "If that old man hadn't protected her, we would have killed her long ago. Blame that old fool..."

"If it weren't for that old fool rejecting me and forcing your dad to marry Katia, you wouldn't have become an illegitimate daughter. In the end, Katia still died by my hands..."

Sarah turned out to be the murderer of her own biological mother?

Samantha's blood boiled throughout her body. She tightly covered her mouth, resisting the urge to kick the door open. Leaning against the wall, she turned away.

She had to tell her grandfather about this. She had to bring Sarah to justice.

But because of her large belly, she moved awkwardly and accidentally knocked over a vase in the corridor, making a faint noise.

Sarah and Suzy heard the commotion. Their hearts skipped a beat, and they opened the door. They saw Samantha, heavily pregnant, heading towards the stairs. Due to pregnancy, her movements were particularly clumsy.

The mother and daughter exchanged a glance, and Sarah quickly caught up, reaching out to support Samantha. Feigning concern, she said, "Samantha, why are you back? Weren't you supposed to go for a checkup with Uncle Tom?"

Samantha, disgusted, evaded her touch, keeping a safe distance. Her body trembled slightly, her eyes filled with panic and fear.

It was like watching an unforgivable murderer.

Her reaction confirmed Sarah's speculation.

Seeing that Samantha now knew the truth, she no longer bothered to disguise or hide, revealing her true colors and glaring menacingly at Samantha.

"Samantha, you're carrying a child now, right? Don't get too excited. In case you harm the child in your belly, it won't be good for anyone."

On the surface, it sounded like concern, but in reality, it was a threat. Using Samantha's unborn child as leverage.

Samantha naturally understood. Waves of anger surged into her chest. She glared fiercely at Sarah and staggered towards the door.

Sarah had reached a state of madness. She had to immediately tell the truth to her grandfather. She had to make Sarah pay for her mother's life.

Watching Samantha's departing figure, Sarah cast a malicious look at Suzy.

Suzy understood, followed behind Samantha, and forcefully pushed her when they descended the stairs.

"Ah..."

Samantha screamed as her body lost balance and rolled down the stairs.

At the moment of impact, her lower abdomen hit the ground, a piercing pain spreading from her abdomen to her entire body, and large patches of blood flowed from her legs...

A strong smell of blood permeated the air.

"Ugh..."

Samantha was in pain, cold sweat pouring down. She tried to get up but couldn't muster any strength. After struggling a few times, she couldn't resist the encroaching darkness, falling to the ground unconscious.

...

Emergency room of the hospital.

Samantha, covered in blood, lay on the operating table. The sharp pain in her lower abdomen felt like a blender churning her insides, causing her whole body to tremble, and cold sweat poured out.

Several blurry white figures moved in front of her eyes. Tears flowed uncontrollably. She wanted to cry for help, for her child, but she had no strength. She could not utter a word and could only endure.

At this moment, her mind held only one thought--Her child must be safe, absolutely safe!

Suddenly, she felt a surge of warmth beneath her, as if something was desperately trying to come out. Soon, the entire operating table was dyed red.

In a daze, she faintly heard the doctor saying, "It's too late. The child couldn't be saved, a lovely baby boy. What a pity..."

....

Four years later.

Hotel’s VIP private room, five women sitting around a table.

"Come, let's celebrate Lila's return to the country. If it weren't for Lila, our Sky Group wouldn't have been able to successfully enter the top 100 companies in the capital. Let's continue to work hard and strive to replace the Miller family, becoming the leader of the jewelry industry in the capital."

The speaker was a woman in her forties, with shoulder-length hair and a sharp dress sense. She was one of the partners of the Sky Group, Wendy.

And the Lila she mentioned was none other than Samantha, who had been missing for four years and had just returned to the country.

Samantha tied her chestnut-colored, slightly curly hair into a high ponytail. Her lips, in a beautiful cherry blossom color, exuded a simple yet fashionable aura in her plain professional attire.

"It’s a pleasure working together." She politely raised the glass in her hand, tilting her head back to finish the red wine.

After some pleasantries, they began discussing business matters while having their meal.

"Wendy, seated next to Samantha, relayed the latest news to her. 'In six months, Miss Ellena of the Steele family will be marrying Albert Davis, the heir of the Davis family. The Steeles wish to present Ellena with a distinctive set of jewelry as a dowry. You've received an invitation and they're interested in collaborating with you.'"

Samantha squinted her eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in her beautiful amber eyes.

Ellena--Ethan Steele's younger sister... Suzy's future sister-in-law.

The Steele family was the largest family in the capital. Ethan was the current head of the Steele family and the president of the Emperor Group.

Four years ago, Ethan Steele, who was unmarried, suddenly had a son, and the child's biological mother was Suzy.

The Steele family's elders loved this suddenly arrived grandson to the core. They spared no expense for his full-month celebration, spending billions.

The grandeur was unprecedented.

As a great contributor to the Steele family, Suzy was immediately engaged to him by the Steele family's elders.

But for some unknown reason, four years had passed, and the two were still engaged, with no wedding ceremony held.

Even so, the Miller family's status in the capital had risen, and they successfully entered the ranks of the top ten families.

Seeing her silent, Wendy continued, "Of course, with the Steele family's position in the capital, there are many people who want to take on this project. You are just one of the invited, and the Miller family is also included. Whether you can successfully collaborate depends on personal ability."

Afraid that Samantha would be angry, Wendy quickly explained, "I believe with your strength, you can secure this project. This way, you can establish a connection with the Steele family and strike a blow against the Miller family."

Samantha smiled, lightly clinking her wine glass with Wendy's. "Of course, this project is a must-win for me."

She wanted more than just this project.

She wanted everything related to Suzy.

If it weren't for Suzy back then, her son wouldn't have been born and died prematurely.

She didn't even have a chance to see him.

Yet, Suzy's son became the heir of the first family.

Why?

She founded the Sky Group, worked hard to study jewelry design, won numerous awards in global jewelry design competitions, all with the goal of replacing the Miller family and becoming the leader in the jewelry industry.

As for Suzy...

She wanted her to taste the bitterness of being forsaken by everyone and losing everything!
