Chapter 701 The Tuffin Family Wants to Seize the Villa

Author: Dainty
Rachel's face broke into a nonchalant smile as she counted on her fingers.

"I have you, Mr. Hamilton, Vincent, Gale, Zayn, Finn, Duke Eaton... You guys are my family! My mother is Her Majesty, the Queen of Sisilia Island. Not Layla Yeats, who had abandoned her partner and child to marry into a wealthy family!"

Upon hearing Rachel's words, Larissa felt a wave of relief.

Layla, Ellie, and Elias came back home, reeking of garbage.

Cyrus was shocked when he saw them. "What's that smell? Did you guys fall into a cesspit?"

"I'll tell you later. I'm going to shower first," Layla said weakly.

Ellie and Elias also went to take a shower.

After returning home, Layla dedicated two hours to scrubbing herself clean and went through an entire bottle of shower gel to finally get rid of the lingering stench.

After her shower, she told Cyrus what happened.

"You know, on our wedding night, I sensed something was off, and you lied to my face, claiming it was your period!" Cyrus was furious, f

    At that moment, Caspian suddenly raised his head, locking eyes with Rachel's gaze.Both of them were taken aback, quickly diverting their gaze as if a jolt of electricity had passed between them.Caspian had noticed Rachel long before. Besides her stunning looks, he was drawn to her straightforward and unpretentious personality. However, he kept these thoughts to himself.Caspian had heard that she was the adopted daughter of the Queen of Sisilia Island, with a royal ranking surpassing even Larissa's. This realization made him feel unworthy of Rachel, so he kept his feelings tucked away in his heart.Meanwhile, Dylan was immersed in watching a drama on his iPad. During a climactic moment, his handsome face contorted with excitement as he pounded the sofa with clenched fists.

    Elias adopted a patronizing tone, saying, "My dad is a reasonable man. He agreed to include you in our family and doesn't care about your background. From now on, your name will be Rachel Tuffin. Don't be ungrateful, and come home with us!"Rachel, displaying disdain, retorted, "Rachel Tuffin? What an ugly name! Please don't make me sick!"Without warning, Rachel kicked Elias, sending him five feet away. This was just how arrogant Rachel was. "Elias!" Layla shouted and rushed toward the fallen Elias. He was her son, her dependent. If Rachel harmed him, Layla couldn't fathom what she would do in her old age."Elias, are you alright? Try moving around." Layla expressed her concern and asked, "Check if any bones are broken or if you have any internal injuries."Layla's genuine concern for Elias contrasted starkly with her treatment of Rachel.Ellie, on the verge of tears, pleaded, "Rachel, how could you do this? Do you know how happy Elias and I were when we found out we had a sist

    "Get a move on! I've got to get back to my food!" Rachel grabbed Layla rudely and headed to the exit.Seeing the familiar place, Layla screamed, "Stop! Stop! Rachel, you goddamned ungrateful daughter! Let go!" Layla wailed as loudly as a siren when her body was thrown into the air. She was once again thrown into the trash can.At that moment, the garbage truck pulled up. The pungent aroma of garbage assaulted Layla's nose once again. It was the same familiar smell, the same garbage content.Rachel turned to look at Elias.Elias gulped. He didn't want to end up in the trash can again."Stay back! I'm cautioning you not to approach any closer. I hold a black belt in martial arts!" Elias acknowledged his previous lapse in caution that resulted in his defeat. This time, he was well-prepared, confident that there was no chance he could lose, especially not to a woman.

    Rachel had held back her strength. If she and Larissa had unleashed their full power, the bodyguards would've been killed!However, even without the intention to lethally harm, the bodyguards ended up with severe injuries, including broken limbs. Before long, all of them crumpled to the ground, groaning uncontrollably in pain.Upon witnessing Elias' broken hand, Abigail felt a pain so intense it seemed as if her own hands were the one broken. She impulsively charged at Rachel, attempting to slap her. "How dare you injure Elias!"In response, Rachel snarled, "Die, you old hag!"

We all got injured by accident during our home renovation. Come inside so that you don't get injured, too."Cyrus tried to explain why they were all bruised and beaten, but Archie had no interest in their well-being. He dismissed them, saying, "I'll pass. I'm here to tell you something."Abigail asked, "Is it about the wedding? We have a few more months. What's the rush that you have to visit at this hour?"Archie said emotionlessly, "It's about the wedding—we're canceling it. The Palmer family has decided to cancel the marriage alliance between Ellie and me."Abigail was shocked. "But why?"Ellie was stunned, too. "Archie, what do you mean?

I value morals, so I refuse to work with you."Cyrus asked in disbelief, "Is it because of Rachel? Mr. Harrison, may I know how you are related to Rachel?"Zayn said, "Rachel and I grew up in the orphanage together. She is like a little sister to me.

He stood firm amidst the snowy landscape like a sturdy tree.The wolf cub approached him and affectionately rubbed against his trousers. He lowered his head, giving it a faint glance.

A faint light shone on the horizon. The distant sea was tumultuous with no end in sight.Ambrose stood on the balcony, his black hair fluttering in the sea breeze.He cautiously lifted his right hand. At this moment, his hand could no longer be called a hand.From his fingertips to his arm, it had fully transformed into a wolf's paw.

    A week later, Birdie awoke.She burst into tears upon seeing Larissa. "Ms. Larissa, those people beat me so badly! I thought I'd never see you again!"Larissa tenderly hugged Birdie and patted her back to comfort her. "It's fine now. Don't be afraid. I've already avenged you."Vincent stood nearby. He tightly pursed his lips, believing that the punishments meted out to those people were too light.After Birdie had stopped crying, she looked at him and asked, "Vince, why are you still so short?"He felt like he'd been struck by lightning.Birdie was a year older than Vincent.

Have your injuries healed?"It was simple for a person to leave a lasting impression on her. He only needed to owe her money.When Fernando heard the familiar voice, he finally confirmed she was the one who saved him."It's me. I'm really sorry..."He didn't hide anything and confessed all of his wrongdoings. After speaking, he nervously waited.Larissa might criticize him harshly, hit him, or even trample on his dignity as Nayla did. Everything was his fault.

You may leave!"However, Fernando didn't do so. He seemed to have made a certain determination and bent toward Max. "Please allow me to stay by Ms. Zoey's side. I'm willing to spend the rest of my life protecting her."Max squinted. "Do you think I'll still believe you?"Fernando remained bent over. It was a posture of persistence rather than reverence.

Even if Max barred him from entering the Hamilton residence again, he would silently protect Zoey....Nayla stitched up her face at the Dalton residence, her hands trembling violently."Damn it!"

    Fernando became more certain of the truth when he saw Nayla's panicked expression."Do you want me to believe you? Then show me how you used the silver needles to save me.""I—" Nayla bit her lip tightly. "You hurt me, Fernando. Have you forgotten that I saved your life? You promised to repay me. How could you doubt me?"He returned to his former coldness and stepped closer to her."You're not the one I owe gratitude to. When I was severely injured and unconscious, I couldn't see who had saved me. I'd even forgotten her voice. Fortunately, I've recalled it. Or I'd have no idea how much longer you'd deceive me!"During this period, the humiliations he had endured from Nayla were vivid and echoed in his mind.He had also doubted how a kind woman who would help a stranger could become so cruel.Nayla explained that her parents had abandoned her since birth.
