The Supreme Heiress Chapter 55
Jade would never believe that Gemma would truly repent, but she couldn't say that to Leah. She could only say vaguely, "Grandma, why don't we observe her for a couple of days before coming to a conclusion?"With the enemy in the dark and herself in the light, Jade was in a passive position. If Gemma stayed under Leah's nose, every move she made would be scrutinized."Okay, let her stay here for a couple of days," Leah said, not believing that Gemma could undergo such a drastic change in character either.Gemma busied herself in the kitchen, but unfortunately, she didn't know how to do anything and made a mess of things. Afraid of annoying Leah, she went to clean the house.Her humble attitude made the household servants shake their heads. Jade suddenly understood that Gemma was taking a step back to move forward. She was playing the emotional card."Jade, why don't you try on that dress for me?" Leah was now completely focused on Jade's engagement ceremony. Though it wasn't real,

This time, no matter what happened, Jade wouldn't let Gemma succeed. She was determined to let Gemma reap what she had sown....The news of Caelan's engagement had already spread throughout Centus.On the day of the engagement, the elites of upper society all came to congratulate them, making it a grand occasion.Jade sat in the lounge and looked down from the second floor, seeing that the guests were all either rich or influential. Prominent figures from the business world and politicians were both present, showing the Fitzgeralds’ status in the city.Kennedy was wearing a suit, looking spirited with Caelan by his side as they chatted with the guests.Jade saw Melvin among the guests. He seemed very confident today, unlike his usual submissive self, and he kept basking in the compliments of the crowd."Congratulations, Jade." The door of the lounge opened and Neve walked in wearing an elegant princess dress.She had a fake smile on, mixed with many complex emotions—jealousy,

Neve looked at Jade's icy gaze, her eyes widening as she was suddenly struck by a realization.Could she have ingested the drink that was laced with the aphrodisiac?"Surprised, Neve?" Jade squatted down, her gaze frosty. "As long as you trick her into drinking the stuff, I have a way of making you Mrs. Fitzgerald."Neve panicked, looking at Jade as if she were a monster. "How... How do you know what Mom told me?"These words were exactly what Gemma had told Neve, instructing her to trick Jade into ingesting the aphrodisiac, but now Neve herself had fallen victim to it.As the effects of the drug began to take hold, Neve felt a rush of heat throughout her body, and fine beads of sweat started forming on her forehead. Even her voice took on a seductive tone."Because I know everything you've done," Jade said deliberately.Gemma had tried to sabotage her engagement banquet by drugging her, planning to have Neve take her place as the center of attention that day, just like she had

"It concerns the reputation of the Fitzgerald Group. If you don't want to listen, I won't force the issue. I just want to remind you that once the scandal breaks, it will bring the Fitzgerald Group to ruin," Gemma said confidently."What exactly are you trying to tell me?" Caelan asked coldly."Jade is having an affair with another man, and the scandal will soon be exposed. The only one who can save the Fitzgerald Group now is Neve. As long as Jade's not the focus of the day, the Fitzgerald Group won't be affected," Gemma said appeasingly. She didn't dare provoke Caelan, as she couldn't afford the consequences of angering him.Now, she had to pin all the blame on Jade, preserve Neve's position, and let Neve take over. After all, Jade was already done for, and the Fitzgeralds knew how to make the right choice.Caelan smirked mockingly. "Are you trying to threaten me?""No, I'm not. I wouldn't dare. Everything I've done is for the sake of the Fitzgeralds. Of course, with my own inte

Jade, who should have been in the room, was nowhere to be found. Instead, her beloved daughter, Neve, was there."Get away, you scumbag!" Gemma went crazy and lunged at the two people on the bed, pulling the man away from Neve and wrapping her tightly in the blanket.Neve was still under the influence of the drug, and the sudden emptiness dissatisfied her. She struggled out of Gemma's embrace and pounced toward the man, mumbling, "Don't go, I want more."Gemma wished she could die right then and there. She couldn't understand why Neve had ended up there, even though the drug had been meant for Jade.What on earth was going on?"Get out, all of you!" Gemma roared at the people standing at the door, feeling like she wanted to die.It was only now that Caelan relaxed slightly. He had also thought that the person inside was Jade. Seeing that it was Neve, he instantly understood what was going on."Mrs. Severin, is this the scandal you were talking about? The one that would affect th
The Supreme Heiress Chapter 60
At this point, she covered her mouth in surprise and pretended to be afraid. "Could someone have spiked the drinks?"The fact that the older sister had brought food laced with drugs at the younger sister's engagement ceremony was just too sensational.Gemma panicked now that her counterattack had failed. "Jade, don't speak without a conscience. Your engagement is a big deal for the Severins. Neve was really happy. How could she have harmed you? She knew you were getting engaged and she even asked me to give you a diamond bracelet. How can you turn against your sister when she treated you like this?"Gemma had a knack for distorting right and wrong. She captured perfectly the pained expression of a victim, and her performance even made the reporters present hesitate.Her acting skills would probably give a movie star a run for their money."Mom, why are you so agitated? I just said that someone spiked the drinks, but I didn't say it was Neve, did I?" Jade lowered her eyes, feeling

The reporters were sharp-tongued, and every question hit a sore spot in Gemma. It was something she didn't want to face but had to.Gemma panicked, helplessly watching as everyone pointed fingers at her, vehemently denying it all. "It's pure nonsense. Regardless of whether Jade is my biological daughter or not, I raised her. A marriage alliance with the Fitzgeralds would only benefit the Severins. What reason could I have to do such a thing? If you keep spreading rumors, I'll sue you."After a brief moment of panic, Gemma got her bearings. Even though Neve had been caught red-handed, Gemma would still try to spin the situation in her favor."Even if Neve added something to the drinks, who can find proof that it was an aphrodisiac?"It had to be said that Gemma was eloquent, and the reporters were all left stupefied by her words."Proof? Are you talking about this?" Caelan, who had been coldly watching Gemma's theatrics, finally spoke up.He opened his palm, revealing a bottle. "I

"Mr. Fitzgerald, can we have a word?" Melvin looked at Caelan pleadingly, as Caelan was the most authoritative figure there. As long as he spoke up, the situation would be resolved.However, Caelan ignored Melvin and turned to Jade.Jade was calm, but there was an icy coldness in her eyes, as if she was harboring a tremendous amount of energy that was ready to explode at any moment.Melvin also noticed Jade's expression and immediately reacted. "Jade, today is your engagement day, so we can't afford any mishaps. If this gets exposed by the media, it won't be good for you."Although he seemed to be saying this for Jade's sake, Melvin was thinking of his own interests. If Neve's situation was exposed, it would be difficult for her to marry into a wealthy family.Everyone subconsciously looked at Jade, as if she could resolve the situation with a word and turn a crisis into nothing.Jade smirked. "Dad, you know today is my engagement day, but Mom and Neve gave me such a big 'gift' o

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

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

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

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
