Haley frowned a bit.Camille wanted to see her?Did any issues come up in her absence?Everything was supposed to be alright by now since her parents weren't blaming Camille anymore.“Madam, we have to hurry!” Lana grabbed Haley's hand, jolting her out of her thoughts. The maid looked as if she'd take Haley and fly out of this place.Hopefully, it wasn't an enormous issue.Nothing was supposed to go wrong after Haley's plan of hospitalizing Camille.Haley wanted to follow Lana out of the place…But then, Liam's voice stopped them. “What are you doing here, Lana?”“Ah, Mr. Nash!” Lana exclaimed. She seemed to have just noticed him. The maid looked paler than before and her body began trembling. “W-Why- Why're you here, Mr. Nash?”But Liam didn't answer her question.Frowning, he threw her a hard glare, a look of displeasure flashing in his eyes. “Who permitted you to leave?”“It's not my fault, Mr. Nash. Ma'am Leah fired me,” Lana explained.Liam's dark expression didn't waver.As i
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 140. Faking Illness
Of course, they'd all be happy about her death!Haley couldn't believe Vera once tried to poison her, although she wouldn't put it past the woman.It's no wonder she once came down with a severe stomach ache that was almost incurable.So Vera wanted to kill her but didn't succeed.Looking extremely shocked, Vera and Leah just watched Haley with eyes and mouths wide open.Completely speechless, they didn't speak for a few seconds.Then Leah shot to her feet, screaming, “Ahhhhh! A ghost!”While Vera scrambled off the bed.The woman fell on the floor before springing to her feet. How fast and agile.How could a wounded person be so swift? “H-Haley-” Pointing a trembling finger forward, Vera shouted. “W-Weren’t you dead?”“Weren't you sick, Vera?” Haley answered with her own question.Sizing the woman up, it appeared Vera was just pretending.If Vera was as sick as she looked, she wouldn't have been able to even leave the bed.Laughing softly, Haley studied their reactions.Leah tremble
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 141. In Danger!
Desmond Nash?Wasn't it Liam who sent men to kill her?At her brother's words, Haley was confused. How did he get to know about it?Who told him it was Liam's father?If the gang leader's address of Liam as Mr. Nash was ambiguous, what about Leah whom she caught reporting the same thing to Liam's mother?Holding her shoulders, Andrew checked her out from head to toe.He didn't allow Haley to ask or clear her confusion as he went on hastily. “Sustained any injuries?”Haley shook her head. Seeing her brother in this state, she couldn't possibly tell him that she'd strained her ankle while running. She couldn't also tell him about her encounter with the gun.It was a dangerous risk which Haley took.One she'd never even dreamt about!Well, if she hadn't fired the gun randomly while the gang members advanced at her, her name would be history by now.It was those rapid gunshots that got the Cops’ attention, leading them to track her down.The gang members had their own guns but they wer

…Pacing back and forth in the hallway of the labor room, Haley chewed at her fingernails anxiously.Seconds, minutes, and hours passed by. It had been more than five hours since they'd been waiting.Haley's legs were aching from pacing for too long.Her waist was aching for sitting too long.Strangely, the doctors wouldn't allow anyone inside.Not even Andrew who was Camille's husband.The only sound they could hear was muffled screams from the inside.Sometimes, Camille would go completely silent.Then she'd let out a piercing scream in the next few minutes, leaving them on tenterhooks.Had the doctor's predictions come true?Camille was having complications at birth!It meant their lie was no longer a lie anymore.Would it have been avoided if they hadn't spoken about her near murder in Camille's presence?Wiping her face, Haley groaned inside.She couldn't fight the guilt in her which only ever expanded.Her eyes traveled to her brother.Andrew was now sitting on the waiting chai
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 143. Insecure
Oh, goodness!!!Shutting her eyes, Haley cursed inside.That was Liam's voice, right?Did that stupid man follow her here?No!Liam couldn't be here.Not when he was capable of digging more holes for her.His question was directed at her mother who made the last statement.At Liam's sudden appearance, her parents didn't hide their shock.In fact, the middle-aged couple looked confused, exchanging glances.Then her mother's expression slowly turned red with anger. The woman gave him a glare. “It's none of your business, William Nash-”“Well, it is!” Liam glared back.Before the verbal exchange could proceed and expose her, Haley quickly grabbed his hand.Her heart racing frantically, she hurried down the hallway, pulling Liam along.Behind them, she could feel her parents' confused gazes.And beside her, she could feel Liam's piercing gaze as well, addressing her with confusion.Damnit!This man!Haley struggled to compose herself, trying to act normal.That was too close!What if she
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 144. Arrest Her!
Both Leah and Vera did not see the slap coming.Neither did Haley.She expected her mother to take any action but slapping the girl out of the blue.But wasn't that the best way to deal with her?Even Haley felt disgusted whenever Liam brought up the topic that she and Andrew were hooking up.Of course, her mother would feel enraged.Haley just hoped-No, she prayed…She prayed her mother didn't give her real identity out.It wasn't like she cared much about the Nash Family knowing her true identity, she was only worried it would lead to her parents discovering that Liam was her ex-husband.“M-Mrs. Woods, what did I do wrong?” Leah cried, holding her swollen cheek. “I only told you the truth-”“Repeat that nonsense and I'll make sure you end up in jail!” Hannah shut her up. “Are we on the same level that you'll speak anyhow?”“That's enough, Hannah!” Vera shielded Leah behind her. “Stop bullying my daughter-in-law! You should be ashamed!”A look of realization flashed in Hannah's eyes
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 145. The Evidence
Desmond Nash!That evil man was here!As Liam's father stomped in their direction with three cops behind him, Haley rose to her feet.Always running to defend his wife, she wasn't surprised that Desmond would come for her.What surprised Haley was the fact that he came so early.How fast!It hadn't even been twenty minutes yet since it happened.Had Desmond been lurking around the hospital premises?Or did he race down here the moment he heard the news?“She's that crazy girl who broke my wife's leg!” Desmond stopped in front of her with the police, pointing a trembling finger forward. “Arrest her!”“Yes, Mr. Nash!”The cops nodded to Desmond's order.Advancing forward, they tried to seize Haley before she could react.Andrew quickly got in between them. “What's the meaning of this? Haley would never do that.”Here was her brother defending her.A while ago, Haley was almost convinced he believed the rumors.She thought it was the reason why he was mad at her.But the hopping mad man
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 146. Colluding with The Family's Enemies
Urgh!What now?Shutting her eyes, Haley clenched her fists, frustrated.Liam was back again.This stupid man would never take the hint, would he?Why the hell did he come back?Haley turned around, facing him. Folding her hands, she put on an indifferent smile. “Mr. Nash, do we know each other?”Liam frowned.Confusion swirling in his eyes, he addressed her seriously. “What are you saying?”The obvious.Haley was fed up with this hide and seek seriously.Liam never appeared unless she was in the presence of her parents.What was his mission?It shouldn't be that Liam already knew, right?And if he hadn't known, there was a high risk that Liam could reveal their relationship.With his constant appearance, it was only a matter of time before her parents sensed something was wrong.Fortunately, Andrew also understood the implications it would bring, having their parents know her relationship with Liam.So he butted in. “Jumping into other people's conversation is an act of a coward, Wi
