Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase Novel

Chapter 1086 Chapter 1087: Just then, the sound of their voices roused Jarrod from sleep, and he wandered down the stairs. With a slow rub of his tired eyes, he looked at them in confusion. "Mom, Dad, why are you both still awake? It's already so late. Did something happen?" Speechless with excitement, Richard and Sandra could hardly gather themselves before the phone on the table buzzed again. A new text lit the screen from "Maia." "I don't want Jarrod there.

Only the two of you should come." Without hesitation, Richard tilted the phone toward Sandra, and she nearly blurted something out before clapping a hand over her lips. Trying not to raise suspicion, Richard told Jarrod, "It's nothing serious, just business matters. You don't have to worry." "Are we short on money again?" Jarrod muttered through clenched teeth. "If we are, I can ask a few friends to help us tomorrow." Caught off guard, Richard scratched his head awkwardly. "Don't trouble yourself. Get some rest instead." With a weary shrug, Jarrod let out a sigh.

"If only Maia would finally come home..." At the Nelson residence, Rosanna stared at her phone, her lips curling in distaste as Richard's response appeared on the screen. "Alright. We'll follow your instructions. Your mother and I will head to the restaurant quietly, just the two of us." "Those two were acting like Maia's loyal disciples when, not long ago, they couldn't stand the sight of her." To Rosanna's mind, it felt absurd. But for Richard and Sandra, the moment of reckoning was drawing closer, whether they realized it or not.

Turning toward Austen with sharp resolve, Rosanna said, "I'm putting my plan into motion tomorrow." Austen tilted Rosanna's chin upward, his voice playful. "So soon? You make it feel as if I've stepped right into a carefully spun trap. Tell me, did you approach my brother and me with that in mind from the start?" Rosanna's lashes fluttered as her gaze lifted dreamily toward Austen. "And if I said yes... would it make you angry?" g Ɐ lnσ ν ℓs․com, your storytelling home "Intriguing." Austen chuckled and kissed Rosanna's soft lips.

"Then as you wish, tomorrow morning I'll teach you how to make a moving car spiral out of control." The following morning. At the Morgan family villa. As dawn's first glow crept across the windows, Richard stood in the living room, waiting impatiently for Sandra. "Keep your voice down. Jarrod mustn't wake... we promised Maia he wouldn't find out," he whispered nervously, guiding Sandra outside with her hand in his. "I remember," Sandra replied, trailing after him down the steps. She paused to glance at her attire once more.

"Richard, are you sure this is suitable for meeting Maia?" "You've already changed seven or eight times. This one is perfect. Come on, let's move," Richard said, though he himself had gone through several suits before settling on the one he now wore. . . .
