“I have nothing to lose anyway. When Sebastian kicked me today, I finally understood that I would never be his wife. Why should I let him get away with this?”
Kelly, who was standing beside the bed, was quiet for a very long time. So he was the one who kicked and injured her?
Her gaze finally turned cold. Clenching her fists, her eyes filled with utmost hatred. “Alright. I agree with your plans. However, we’d better find a way out for ourselves before doing that.”
“What do you mean?”
“If you spread the news, Sebastian will definitely trace it back to us.”
Only someone like Kelly could’ve thought of something like that at this juncture.
Xandra then looked at her and waited for her to continue.
“At first, it was the anonymous person who frequently sent you emails and articles that brought you to Sebastian. Find her now and ask her to help us out.”
“Why should I do that?”
“Don’t you understand? She made all those arrangements for you in the first place and helped you to this position step by step. Or do you really believe that she doesn’t need you? You’re way too naive!”
Xandra didn’t expect Kelly would say anything like that, and she was dumbfounded.
What did she mean? That person was actually using me? But I didn’t ask for anything else except money, and I would pay her a good amount whenever she sent me the articles. So why would Kelly say that?
Xandra was not as sharp as her aunt and was still more immature. She didn’t realize the truth behind those arrangements until now.
“Everything comes with a price. In fact, you’re pretty valuable. When she started sending you those emails and turning you into Sebastian’s type, she was already launching her plan. I only kept quiet because it was a win-win situation.”
At that, a shiver ran down Xandra’s spine, and she was at a loss for words.
She stared blankly at her aunt for a long time and finally asked, “So… what’s her real purpose?”
Kelly put on a dark expression. “Who knows? Maybe she wants to manipulate you after giving you what you want, then steal Hayes Corporation. Or maybe she wants to expose you and replace you!”
Kelly’s words stabbed Xandra deeper and deeper.
She became extremely fearful.
No, this is impossible. Is she even capable of doing that? She’s merely someone who sent me the articles! This is clearly just my aunt’s guess.
In disbelief, Xandra struggled to get up and got on her computer, trembling.
When she turned on her computer to send an email to that anonymous user like before, she got a pop-up message. User Nonexistent!
Nonexistent!
The woman felt plunged into an abyss.
She frantically tried resending the email like a madwoman. “Impossible! This isn’t happening!”
Despite her attempts, the results were the same.
Seeing this, Kelly looked at Xandra sharply. “My guesses are confirmed. Alright, if that’s the case, let’s give it a try.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Spread the rumor, of course. Oh, remember to bring your articles and the book. By doing this, I believe Sebastian will notice this author very soon, and he will find out how the secret is exposed.” Kelly smirked wickedly.
…
Meanwhile, at Royal Court One, Frontier Bay.
Sebastian got home before it was getting dark to a scrumptious dinner prepared by Sasha and Wendy.
“Daddy, you’re back!” Matteo and Ian greeted their father happily.
Vivian went forward too, but she suddenly stopped timidly because she wasn’t as close to him as the boys.
After Sebastian had gotten off the car and gave his sons the gifts he bought, he turned around and took out a big, pink mermaid doll.
Vivian’s beady eyes lit up at the gorgeous toy.
“Take it; Daddy bought this for you. Doesn’t he love you too?” Touched, Sasha encouraged her daughter.
The next moment, the little girl quickly ran over with her chubby legs.
