It was because Lucy had no children. It was because she was just a maid. That was why her death was… just the loss of life of an old maid.Just the life of an old maid.The way Winnie described Lucy's death nonchalantly was no different from stepping on a bug on the streets.The raging fury in Heather made her eyes turn cold as she stared at Winnie. She said, her voice eerie, "You want to compensate me? Fine. How much do you think your sorry excuse of a daughter is worth?"Selena instantly became angry. "Did you just say I'm worthless, Heather?"However, Winnie's heart skipped a beat. The way Heather spoke made her think of Tyrone for some reason. Heather was sending chills down her spine.When Winnie regained her composure, she said with a serious expression, "Heather, there's no point for you to make a commotion out of this. You should think clearly about the price you have to pay for going against us. Selena, Craig is still waiting for you at the restaurant. Let's go."Then,
"Tell me where you are right now," Tyrone said sternly.Heather raised her gaze and looked at the name of the shopping mall opposite her. "Pearl Plaza.""Stand there and don't go anywhere else," he said. After hanging up, Heather held her phone tightly and simply stood there and waited.Back at Elkin Group, Tyrone grabbed his blazers and immediately walked over to the exit. Caleb had just walked out of the elevator when he saw Tyrone, and he immediately said in a respectful tone, "Mr. Elkin, Southern Electronics Limited's president and his entourage have arrived and are waiting in meeting room number three.""Something happened to Heather, and I need to see her. Go and take care of them on my behalf," Tyrone said with a frown.He didn't stop. He entered the elevator and pressed a button.Caleb stood there with a shocked expression as he simply looked at the elevator closing its door.What was going on here?…Ten minutes later, a black Maybach left Elkin Group's undergroun
"And here I am, waiting for the court to be in session. I'm just too stupid."It was impossible for Selena to only be released today. Heather thought she had already exacted vengeance for Lucy, but the truth was that Selena had been living a carefree life outside.Heather could only keep on rambling.Tyrone looked at Heather, his expression becoming darker as he suddenly extended his hand and removed her seat belt. He then held her tightly in his arms."Don't think about it anymore, Heather. I'm ordering you not to think about any of this," Tyrone said. He was also trying to hide the nervousness in his voice.Tyrone held Heather so tightly in his arms to the point it hurt her."You're worried that I'll lock myself in again?" Heather asked. Tyrone let go of her. Heather's lips curled into a giant smile. She said in a gentle but firm tone, "Don't worry. I won't lock myself in anymore because of them. That will just make it easy for Selena."I want to avenge Lucy, Tyrone. If Se
Heather wanted to see if she would be able to force Selena to admit to her crime. Of course, this would be after she had lost her influential father, her rich mother, and the whole Huntington family.Tyrone gazed at Heather.She had quite the dream. She wanted to destroy the entire Huntington family.He said, "Selena's father is William Huntington. He and Winnie are friends from university. He didn't have a strong familial background, and the Elkins rejected their marriage at the time, but Winnie insisted on marrying him."Ever since he married Winnie, William has been doing well in politics. If there are no surprises, it's possible for him to get promoted when the current leadership retires."Heather gave it a thought and said, "So William only managed to get this far thanks to Winnie, then. Do you have any scandals regarding him?"Tyrone then said, "Winnie has earned quite a few pretty pennies by doing business using the Elkin family name. "William's smart, knowing that he do
Heather didn't have much of an appetite, however. But when she saw that Cynthia wanted to say something, she asked, "Is there something you want to say, Cynthia?"Cynthia smiled and said, "It's nothing much. I heard that you and Mr. Tyrone were talking about Mr. William, and I suddenly remembered he was going to have his birthday in two days.""Birthday?" Heather asked."Ms. Winnie placed a lot of importance on his birthday. Every year during this time, she would spend a lot of effort and time to prepare for it. She would always get some people from the Elkin family to help her. That is why we all know about it."I even heard from Ms. Winnie herself that Mr. William is going to get promoted this year, so she wanted to make it even more grand. I suddenly remembered about it and believed I should mention it."Even more grand…An idea suddenly flashed through Heather's mind, and she gave Cynthia a meaningful look."You want to ruin his birthday party?" Tyrone asked as he looked at
Tyrone's expression changed as he looked at Heather. "You're taking more initiative when Craig's part of the conversation," he said. Heather had always been someone easily embarrassed and wouldn't even let him hold her in his arms in the past. Kissing him on her own initiative was something extremely rare.It was not hard for Tyrone to figure out that Heather was trying to please him of her own volition, and he liked it. However, he became annoyed when he recalled the reason she became proactive was because of Craig."I'll make something for you to eat, then."Heather didn't want to start a fight with him and believed that walking away might be a better choice. She got up and wanted to leave.Suddenly, Tyrone pulled her back and held her chin. "Don't leave. Kiss me again."…In the blink of an eye, it was already William's birthday.Heather was wearing an evening gown and took a cab where she had promised to meet Janine. She got out of the cab and walked over to a red sports
William was a shrewd and meticulous man. To uncover any dirt on him, it had to be done discreetly. Heather carried a tiny hidden camera in her bag for this sole purpose. Her visit to the Huntington residence was to place the camera where it could monitor William. "Janine, what brings you here?" Winnie asked as she approached, arm-in-arm with William. She wore a smile on her face as she greeted Janine. However, her gaze was cold and wary as she scrutinized Heather. Heather calmly pretended not to notice the scrutiny, standing there with quiet dignity. It was her first time meeting William in person. Though nearing fifty years old, he looked younger, with a handsome face and an air of sophistication and authority. It was clear why Winnie had been so enamored with him in their younger years. "Hey, William, Winnie. Tyrone is busy today, so I'm here on his behalf to wish William a happy birthday. This is a gift from us. I hope you'll like it," Janine said with a bright smile as
"Tyrone has been in a fierce battle with Greg recently. If I cause him any more trouble, he'll never forgive me. He might even break up with me," Heather said."I want to stay with him. I don't want to lose him," she added. Winnie was taken aback by her words, but she felt an even stronger sense of disdain toward her. "And what's going on between you and Janine?" William asked, his gaze sharp as he scrutinized Heather closely. This was his first time meeting Heather in person, but knowing she had reported Selena to the police and harbored a deep grudge against her, William wondered why she would suddenly seek reconciliation."I got close to Janine to gain her trust because I wanted to marry Tyrone. She was deceived by me and had no idea about my relationship with him. It's that simple," Heather explained. Winnie remained skeptical. "When I asked for your help, you were fiercely loyal to Tyrone!" "Ms. Elkin, people do change, don't they?" Heather said. "I was impulsive befo
