The Supreme Heiress Chapter 24
"Okay, Grandma," Jade said obediently.Brianna helped Leah get up and led her back to the room.Jade thought about her past life, when Leah had handed over all household authority to Gemma after her injury. Jade wondered if the situation would change now that she had intervened. However, since Gemma already couldn't contain herself, Jade decided to act like a quiet hunter and wait for the prey to fall into her trap. She believed that the news of her being invited over by the Fitzgeralds would quickly reach someone's ears.As expected, the news of her internship at the Fitzgerald Group reached Neve’s ears. Neve went to Gemma with tears in her eyes. "Mom, you need to think of something. I can't let her climb over my head."To many people, Jade joining the Fitzgerald Group meant that she would be entering the Fitzgerald family.How could Neve not be anxious when an adopted daughter of the Severins might be entering the Fitzgerald family?Gemma felt both angry and surprised. The pe

Gemma's heart settled down instantly, and she looked at Melvin with glowing eyes. "What do you mean?"Melvin got up, put on a shirt, and replied, "I believe you've noticed her resistance in the past few days. What does that indicate? It means you’ve pushed her too hard. The energy that erupts when someone reaches their limit is unimaginable. Otherwise, you wouldn't have lost your position as general manager."Gemma was indignant. "So, even you believe her over me?"Knowing that Melvin was easily swayed by coaxing and not harsh words, Gemma shed a few crocodile tears. As expected, Melvin softened and said, "Still, she's not my biological daughter. If we don't use some special means, how will we get her to obediently follow our orders?"Based on what Melvin said, Gemma understood that he was merely using Jade, which made her feel relieved. However, she wouldn't let that wretch have it so easy. If she dared to resist, she would show her the consequences of rebellion.Jade spent the n

The servant, however, wasn't as composed as Jade. He hid behind her with a gasp and stammered, "Ms. Severin, please don't move. Panther is very fierce and it will bite anyone it pleases. As long as we don't bother it, it won't attack us."Jade was scared of ferocious dogs too, but since she had experienced death once, there was not much left for her to fear."Why would there be a dog on the grounds?" Jade asked in a hushed tone."This dog is..."Before the servant could finish, a nonchalant voice reached Jade's ears. "Who are you?"Turning toward the voice, Jade saw a man in a blue striped suit eyeing her up and down. The man frowned, but his smile and gaze were both mocking."Sir..." The servant looked at him pleadingly for help. "Panther is out again. Could you please take it away? It's really frightening."While the man looked at Jade, she was also sizing him up. She recalled that he was Caelan's elder cousin, the oldest member of their generation—Byron Fitzgerald.Kennedy h
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 27
Jade followed Caelan into the castle but noticed that he didn't head to the living room. Instead, he went to the yard.Sitting by the pond, Kennedy was dressed casually, wearing a fisherman's hat and looking deeply engrossed in fishing. When he saw Jade and Caelan approaching, he gestured to them from across the pond, signaling for them to come slowly so they would not startle the fish.The sunlight was intense, giving Kennedy a slightly flushed complexion, but he seemed to be in good spirits.Jade could tell based on the way he looked that his injury wasn't serious. After all, he was sitting and not putting any strain on the wound, so she wasn't too worried."Oh, got a bite, got a bite!" Jade was lost in thought when Kennedy suddenly exclaimed, rapidly spinning the fishing rod.Beneath the calm surface of the pond, a large blue carp churned, breaking through the water. The fish was sizable, caught but reluctant to give in, so it kept struggling to escape.Kennedy shouted when he
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 28
Jade was sitting next to Caelan, feeling stiff all over. She had been about to find an opportunity to slip away when she heard Kennedy. She could only nod and say, "A bit.""Do you know how to cook fish?" Kennedy asked.Jade's culinary skills were limited, but fish was her specialty, so she replied, "Yes.""Then can you show us what you can do?" Kennedy was full of anticipation as he said with a smile, "Have dinner here. You can leave after you eat."Jade had conflicting emotions for Caelan. She both wanted to know him and feared getting closer to him. Upon hearing what Kennedy said, she suddenly remembered that Caelan loved eating fish. She would be happy to cook for him.Feeling gratitude, Jade agreed. "Sure. If it doesn't turn out well, please bear with me."Kennedy waved his hand. "Don't be nervous, we're a family. Just go ahead."Jade heaved a sigh of relief and entered the kitchen as though she was marching into a battlefield, only to find that all the ingredients had alre
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 29
The oil in the pan began to smoke, and Jade exclaimed as she hastily added the cut ingredients to the wok. The ingredients hit the hot surface with a sizzle, releasing a fragrant aroma.As Jade wielded the spatula, she noticed Caelan standing there, looking as utterly bewildered as an adorable dog. Her heart softened for a moment."Pass me the soy sauce?" she asked.Caelan scanned the kitchen before picking up a seasoning bottle and handing it over. Jade nearly burst into laughter when she saw it—Caelan had handed her the vinegar instead of the soy sauce."It's over there." Jade suppressed her laughter as she showed him.Caelan, who remained expressionless, felt a bit nervous. This was the first time he had entered a kitchen, and it was unexpectedly troublesome.Jade noticed his unease and found it amusing. However, as she chuckled inwardly, her heart ached.In her previous life, Caelan had been an excellent cook. He had not only been able to cook regular dishes but also dessert
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 30
The idea of letting Caelan take her home made Jade nervous to the point of suffocation."That won't do," Kennedy objected. "You already came all this way to change my bandages. Having him drive you home is nothing."Caelan showed no emotion, but his furrowed brows did not escape Jade's eyes. Deep down, he was reluctant."I have a meeting in 40 minutes," Caelan said matter-of-factly.Jade immediately understood. It would take 30 minutes to take her home, so Caelan would give her only ten minutes to eat. Quite demanding of him…"I'm done eating too," Jade replied hurriedly.As they were about to leave, Kennedy felt a bit disappointed. He had wanted to chat more with the two of them. However, for his grandson's happiness, he decided to make a small sacrifice. Waving his hand, he said, "Alright, you two go ahead."After bidding farewell to Kennedy, Jade and Caelan left the Fitzgeralds’ home.Outside, a black Maybach was parked, looking like a mysterious and dangerous beast lurking

The man covered Jade's mouth while dragging her to a secluded place. Jade struggled, but he knocked her down with a punch."What do you want?" Jade coldly confronted the masked man in front of her, her heart pounding. She hadn't expected that she’d be unlucky enough to run into a robber."Do you want money? I can give it to you," she said, observing her surroundings while trying to negotiate with the robber.Unfortunately, the area they were in was very remote, so there was hardly anyone on the road. Jade reached into her bag and quickly pressed "1" on her phone."How dare you call for help, b*tch!" the robber sneered before snatching Jade's phone and quickly hanging up.Jade's heart sank, and she hastily took off. Unfortunately, she felt someone pull her by the hair after just a few steps. She struggled desperately, accidentally grabbing the man's mask.As their eyes met, both of them were stunned. Jade widened her eyes at the man. "It's you?"The man was none other than Tucker

Chenelle's words made Jade clench her fists in anger. For someone so heartless, she really wanted to wake her up with a good beating.Taking a step forward, Jade grabbed Chenelle by the collar.Chenelle screamed, thinking Jade was about to hit her, and retreated in fear. "What are you doing? Do you want to hit me again?!"'So, she can also feel fear.'Jade sneered coldly, rolling up her sleeves to show the scars on her arm. "While you complain about the world's injustices, open your eyes wide and see that not everyone is as fortunate as you."I was also adopted, but compared to you, our lives are worlds apart. While you resent not getting enough attention, others are struggling to find their next meal. When you let jealousy drive you to harm others, some people are just praying to survive."Chenelle, you truly don't appreciate the blessings you have."Jade's fair arm was covered in scars of various sizes—burns, cuts, and a long stitched wound that looked like a centipede. Althou

Chenelle forcefully shook off Jade's hand, her eyes filled with venom as she spat, "You bitch! Stop pretending to be so righteous. I despise people like you the most. Do you think the Fitzgeralds adopted me out of kindness? No, it's because they felt guilty."Her face twisted with intense hatred, her gaze sweeping across everyone in the hall with a sharp, accusatory edge.When her eyes landed on Kennedy, her resentment peaked. "Ever since I stepped into the Fitzgerald household, you've treated me with hostility, never once showing me a kind face."My efforts to make you happy were like a dog desperately seeking attention. When you were in a good mood, you were somewhat kind to me, but when you weren't, you completely ignored me. "Do you think bringing me into the Fitzgeralds would make me grateful? No, it won't. I hate you. I hate every single one of you! You took away my only family and snuffed out the last bit of warmth I had."If it weren't for my father trying to protect Cael
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 775
After changing her clothes, Jade applied light makeup while standing in front of the mirror. As she gazed at her rosy reflection, fragments of the previous night's events flickered in her mind. Her cheeks flushed, and she covered her face with her hands, fanning herself nervously. 'What to do, what to do? How should I face Caelan later?'After much hesitation, Jade decided to face him. After all, they had already crossed all boundaries. Avoiding him now would be unnecessarily dramatic. Moreover, they would be living together in the future. It wasn't practical to keep avoiding him.With this thought, Jade felt significantly more at ease. As she approached the door, she heard Caelan's voice from the living room. "Hold her there. I'm coming right over." Puzzled, Jade opened the door and looked at Caelan.He ended his call and said, "We've found the person who drugged you. I'm heading over now.""Who is it?" Jade asked angrily.Caelan gave her a deep, serious look before replying,

'And then…' Thinking about it further, Jade couldn’t bear to continue. 'Could it be that I spent the night with Orion?!'"Morning..." The familiar deep voice sent a shiver through Jade, followed by a surge of joy enveloping her entire being. That voice, she would recognize it even in death.It was Caelan. This was Caelan's voice!Jade remained motionless, her body stiff. The swing from immense sorrow to immense joy was too overwhelming—she needed a moment to process it all."Why aren't you saying anything?" Caelan noticed Jade's odd behavior and propped himself up to look at her face, only to find her silently shedding tears.His heart clenched, and his first instinct was to apologize. "I'm sorry, last night I had no choice. Your situation was too dangerous—"Before he could finish, Jade threw herself into his arms.Caelan was at a loss, his body rigid, afraid to move a muscle.Tears dripped onto his chest, scorching his skin and softening his heart."Are you still in pain?" h
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 773
Jade felt as if her head was about to explode, her body burning, with her organs seemingly on the verge of combustion."Jade, Jade, wake up." Caelan gently patted Jade's cheek. The moment he touched her skin, he was startled by how scalding hot she felt.Jade's eyes fluttered open in a daze, her vision blurred, unable to discern the face looming close to hers. She grasped the cool hand on her face, pressing it tightly against her skin."So cool… So cool…" Jade murmured unconsciously, her body instinctively leaning closer. She wrapped her arms around the man's neck, rubbing against him desperately. "Help me… I feel so uncomfortable, so hot."Seeing her in such a state, Caelan felt an indescribable pain in his heart. His fists clenched tightly, veins bulging on the back of his hands as he commanded Samuel, "Find out who did this."Samuel nodded. "The doctor is on his way, but we need to lower Miss Severin's temperature immediately."Caelan's eyes darkened momentarily. He bent down,

Orion's face had turned a shade of red that was far from normal, yet he struggled to stay conscious, shaking his head with a bitter smile."I never thought I'd see the day when I'd be outsmarted."Jade's heart tightened in response. She had reserved a VIP suite in the hotel, with only two rooms on the entire floor. To ensure privacy, she had explicitly instructed that no one was to come upstairs. Now, Orion had been drugged, and she…A sudden spell of dizziness caused Jade's legs to give way. She clung to the door frame to avoid collapsing. To her horror, she realized she had been drugged too. 'Damn it! How could I have let my guard down?!'"I'll call for help. Don't move."Overwhelmed by the heat coursing through her body, Jade was on the brink of losing her sanity. In a bid to stay conscious, she dug her nails into her palm. The pain brought a moment of clarity, but it was fleeting. The heat surged back, stronger and more relentless than before. Fear crept up from Jade's feet
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 771
Jade arrived at the hotel and easily found the floor, unlocking Room 2020. As soon as she stepped inside, she was taken aback—red roses filled the entire room, and candles burned softly in the corners, creating a romantic and cozy atmosphere.This was the result of Melanie and Tiffany’s hard work all afternoon.As Jade walked on the soft carpet, Jade's heart danced with excitement. Today, she would give herself to Caelan—she was finally going to be his woman. She had been waiting for this day for so long.Her phone buzzed with a text message. Jade opened it and saw it was from Tiffany.Tiffany: [There's a gift for you on the bed. You're welcome.]'A gift? What kind of prank is this girl up to now?'Following Tiffany’s instructions, Jade found the gift on the bed. She opened it and gasped. A few black straps connected to bits of sheer fabric!'Lingerie?' Jade’s face turned crimson, and she quickly shoved the outfit back into the box. If she wore this to see Caelan, she’d rather
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 770
Caelan: [Alright, go ahead and get busy.]Jade felt a slight chill in her heart as she read the message from Caelan. Shouldn't he have asked where she was going? Why did he just reply with that?There was something off about Caelan's mood, but she couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.Seeing Jade lost in thought, Melanie waved her hand in front of her friend's eyes. "Hey, snap out of it. Did Caelan say when he's coming?"Jade, feeling a bit down, replied, "I haven't figured out how to tell him yet.""What's there to figure out? My goodness." Melanie grabbed Jade's phone and quickly typed a message to Caelan.Jade: [I'll be waiting for you at 5:00 p.m. in Room 2020 of Serendipitus. We need to talk.]With a flourish, she sent the message and tossed the phone back to Jade.Jade's eyes widened in shock. "Melanie, can we really do this?""Why not? Trust me, right now Caelan is probably as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof, wondering if you're going to break up with him."Tiffany c
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 769
The car sped toward Jade's villa, coming to a stop.Caelan immediately took out his phone and called Jade. Just like before, there was no answer. While staring at the tightly shut door, Caelan's heart clenched. 'Could it be true, as Chenelle said, that Jade has fallen for Orion?'..."Hey, can't you two stop this?" Jade sighed in exasperation.She had been perfectly content at home when Tiffany and Melanie had barged in and dragged her out.To make matters worse, they had taken her phone. Their excuse was to make Caelan worry and see if he would dare to disappear again. Most importantly, they wanted to surprise him."Just relax and stay here. Tiffany and I will handle everything else," Melanie said, pressing Jade into a chair and thrusting a makeup brush into her hand. "You just focus on looking beautiful and don't worry about a thing, okay?"Jade couldn't help but laugh. "Can you two stop being so overbearing? I'm the main character here. Can't you show me some respect?"The
