All Chapters of The Supreme Heiress: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

However, even though there were doubts in Gemma's mind, she dared not bring them up. After all, the Severin family was ruled by Leah, and as a daughter-in-law, she had to obey.During dinner, Melvin gathered everyone in the living room. On the table sat an exceptionally luxurious gift box. When the box was opened, it revealed a vintage bangle adorned with a luminous pearl—clearly, an item with some history.Neve's eyes widened, and she slyly tugged on Gemma's sleeve, saying jealously, "Dad is really willing to spend money on Grandma. He knows that Grandma likes antiques, so he bought this for her."Leah didn't fancy flashy things, but she had a particular fondness for antiques. Melvin, knowing her preference, had spent 3,000,000 dollars to acquire this antique bangle, which was rumored to have been worn by a queen. It showed how much importance he attached to Leah's birthday celebration."Grandma's birthday celebration is the day after tomorrow. This bangle is my birthday gift to her.

Leah, who was genuinely angry, started to cough. Brianna quickly handed her a cup of tea and comforted her. "Madam, please don't get angry. The doctor said you can't get worked up because of your illness. Besides, it's your birthday celebration today. Let's discuss any issues afterward."Leah sighed at the mention of her illness. As she grew older, her health issues increased. In the past, when she used to be in good health, she had been able to manage the household well. However, with age catching up to her, she had gradually become less capable.Eventually, she’d had to delegate one-third of the company's management to Gemma and Melvin. The two of them unfortunately lacked the ability to run the company, leading to signs of decline in the Severin Group within a few years, which had been making Leah anxious.Now that another scandal was happening, Leah was even more distressed."Jade's really disappointing." Leah sighed, disappointment filling her eyes. The person she had carefull

It was too late! Everyone had heard it.Melvin, who was both pale and flustered, looked at Gemma as if she were an idiot. Finally, he exploded in a rage and slapped her loudly. "Shut up, you wretch!"Gemma screamed, falling to the floor due to the force of Melvin's slap. Melvin was about to strike again, but Neve rushed over to shield her, pleading with him. "Dad, please don't hit Mom again. She knows she was wrong.""Gemma, you have some nerve." Leah was furious. Her face was livid as she glared at Gemma, and her eyes were flashing with authority.Gemma lost all her momentum and hurriedly apologized. "Mom, calm down. It's my fault. I won't dare do it again. It was a moment of confusion. Please forgive me this once.""I can see that you’ve been increasingly disregarding me over the years." Leah remained angry and kept looking sternly at Gemma. "Since you are so biased against me, just don't go to the company anymore. Vacate your position and let someone capable take over."As soo

A hint of joy crossed Jade's heart, but she soon furrowed her brows. In her previous life, Leah had broken her leg during this birthday banquet, right after the Fitzgeralds had arrived. Unfortunately, Jade had been too timid at the time and hadn't seen how the incident had occurred. This time, she had to protect her grandmother. Jade instinctively supported Leah by her arm, assisting her toward the exit.Although she felt pleased in her heart, Leah said stubbornly, "I'm not that old. Why are you assisting me?" Leah had always been strong-willed, so she refused to admit she was growing old even in her seventies.Knowing her grandmother's mindset, Jade smiled. "I just want to be closer to you."After the splendid confrontation that had occurred earlier, Leah's perception of Jade had changed. Seeing Jade's genuine concern for her, she felt joyous and allowed Jade to assist her.Just as they walked out, Neve came in and witnessed the scene. She was somewhat shocked, as she wondered h

The light was blocked, so the room was dim. Caelan stood frostily at the door, his gaze on Jade unusually icy, as if he was looking at his arch-enemy."Mr. Fitzgerald, what are you doing?" Trying to make Caelan speak first was like asking for the moon, so Jade had to take the initiative.Caelan's tall figure loomed over her like a mountain pressing down on her, suffocating her. The pervasive chill coming from him felt like it could freeze everything in its vicinity."I won't marry you," he stated curtly. It wasn't a negotiation tactic, but more of a command. Just like the man himself, authoritative and unyielding, not leaving any room for compromise.Suddenly, Jade realized what was going on. No wonder Caelan never looked happy to see her. This was the issue.Earlier, she had pondered how Leah's leg had gotten injured, but she had forgotten one crucial detail.In her previous lifetime, Neve had been the favorite, so Leah had intentionally tried to set Caelan up with her. At the t
