Chapter 519
She tiptoed and put her ear against the door.
“Darling, I’ve let Alice down. I was muddle-headed at that time and shouldn’t have chased her out of the house.”
Hera could clearly hear her grandpa’s voice, which was laced with sounds of sniffles.
She blinked her eyes. Is grandpa referring to Aunt? Hera was aware that she had an aunt who was disowned by her
grandparents after she did something shameful and brought disgrace upon the family.
“I have never imagined that I would get to meet Alice’s daughter one day. She’s really pretty and had even become
an outstanding doctor. Darling, I regret it so much! Alice was equally brilliant at that time. I have failed you too! I
felt so guilty when I met Alice’s daughter. What should I do to make up for it?”
Is grandpa having a heart-to-heart talk with my late grandma?
After eavesdropping for a while, Hera finally knew what was going on.
Looks like grandpa’s greatest regret was chasing Aunt away back then!
Hera frowned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo what if he regrets it? She was repulsed at the thought of becoming cousins with Ashlyn.
Who wants to be that b*tch’s cousin!
“Darling, do you think it’s a good idea if I hand over the Chapman family baton to her? Given her capabilities, she
would definitely be able to lead the family to greater heights and ensure the continued prosperity of our Chapman
family!”
What? Is grandpa thinking of letting Ashlyn inherit the family business?
Is he crazy?
That b*tch is not even a Chapman!
If she’s in charge of the Chapman family, how difficult would my life be next time?
No way!
Hera needed to stop her grandpa from doing that.
A menacing glint appeared in Hera’s eyes. Not only was Ashlyn always picking on her, but she was also snatching
the Chapman family’s fortune away from her now. Hera was furious and could not wait to skin Ashlyn alive.
Suddenly, Hera heard her grandpa’s voice again, “Darling, I need to find that child and tell her the truth of what
happened that time! I need to atone for my mistake!”
Truth? What truth? Hera was lost in her thoughts when a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her.
“Hera, what are you doing?”
“What are you doing here?” Sisley tugged on her daughter’s arm. She scanned their surroundings cautiously and
was glad that she had kept her voice low as she did not want to alert the old man inside his room.
Sisley dragged Hera to her bedroom at once.
“Mom... Just now I... “ Hera had a look of panic on her face. “Do you know what I heard just now?”
Sisley did not think that it could be anything important and replied nonchalantly, “What else could you have heard?
Is that old man missing his wife again?”
“It’s not that, mom,” Hera replied and whispered something into her mom’s ears.
A mirthless smile formed on Sisley’s lips as she said, “I can’t believe that the old bastard is still missing that little
b*tch Ashlyn Berry. Years ago, Fiona was kicked out of the Chapman family after putting us to shame and now, her
daughter has the nerves to return for a share of the family’s fortune? I guess even though the Chapman family
can’t be considered as one of the richest families around, we’re still way above average.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mom, what should we do now?” Hera asked anxiously as she dreaded Ashlyn’s return.
“Well, we just have to take action first. Before the old man approaches that little b*tch to tell her his intentions, we
should... “ A vicious look appeared in Sisley’s eyes as she said that.
Meanwhile, Bob Chapman was lying on his bed in his room. He was staring at the ceiling in a daze while tears
flowed uncontrollably from his eyes.
His encounter with Ashlyn had triggered his guilt towards Fiona and he was overflowing with sadness.
Bob had never thought that he would be able to meet Fiona’s daughter after so many years.
He closed his eyes slowly.
When Ashlyn woke up the next morning, she took two red pills as usual.
After a few days of treatment, she was already feeling much better.
Even though Ashlyn had lost some weight, she was in rather good spirits.
She took her stroll in the lab’s yard with the morning sun casting its warm glow on her.
Ashlyn whipped out her phone as she wondered what Lucas was doing at this moment.
He could still be experiencing jet lag.
She sat down on a bench underneath a tree. Ashlyn looked gorgeous with her high nose bridge and rosy soft lips
which was slightly pursed. When she blinked, her long eyelashes fluttered.
