Chapter 432

Chapter 432 You’re One of Them Now

“That’s nonsense!” Maya cried indignantly. “I do a body check-up every year, and I don’t have anyterminal illnesses! You need to stop alarming others with your lies!”

“Do you think I’m trying to scare others away by lying?” Claude sneered. “I don’t have the spare time todo such things. Forget it. I only reminded you about it because I didn’t want to see a young woman likeyou dying at such an early age. Well, since you don’t believe me, then you can continue to delaytreatment. You’re the one who’s going to die, not me.” After he finished speaking, he took a long look atMaya before heaving a huge sigh. “Ahh!” He shook his head in pity.

Initially, Maya had been firm with her words. However, after witnessing his actions, she couldn’t helpbut take a gulp as she felt uneasy. Her gaze hovered around her surroundings for a while before shenoticed Elise. Then, she stuck her chin high as she snapped back into reality. “You got someone toscare me on purpose, didn’t you, Elise? I know what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to scare me off sothat you can stay with Alexander! You can continue dreaming!” Maya cried fiercely. “You’re the one whoruined the Griffith Family. You’re the reason they went bankrupt, and you’re the reason their family fellapart! You’re a curse to them!”

“Maya!” Alexander had been silent for a while, but right then, he let out a fierce growl. His words wereas sharp as daggers. “You’re not welcome here. Get lost immediately.”

“How could you? Why are you doing this?” Maya was hurt. “I’m here to help you. How could you do thisto me?”

“You asked for it,” Alexander replied as he turned to Cameron. “Why aren’t you doing anything?”

“I got it!” Cameron gave Alexander a respectful nod before he strode over and pointed Maya to the exit.“Please leave now, Miss Dahlen!”

“You must be out of your mind!” Maya was fuming as she gave Elise a hateful glare. “You witch! Youevil woman! I’m not going to let you ruin his life!”

“Cameron!” Alexander shouted in an urgent tone. Cameron’s expression darkened as he reachedforward and grabbed onto Maya’s arm. Both Maya and her assistant were frail women, and neither ofthem had the strength to resist Cameron’s strong tugs as he dragged them out toward the exit. Theytripped over their own feet as they made their way out.

“Wait a second,” Elise called out before they left the house. Cameron’s footsteps came to a halt, but hisgrip remained firm on Maya’s arms—she couldn’t wriggle her way out at all. Elise took large stridestoward Maya. She narrowed her gorgeous eyes to give Maya a dangerous and sinister glare. “What didyou call me earlier? You called me an evil woman, didn’t you?”

Maya tried to fling Cameron’s arm away, but she gave up when she realized how futile her efforts were.Instead, she turned around to stare right into Elise’s face. “That’s right. You’re an evil, cunning lady!Anyone who gets involved with you will eventually end up in a horrible mess!”

Elise shut her eyes and pressed her hand against her face to wipe off the saliva that came out ofMaya’s mouth as she spoke. There was a hint of disdain in Elise’s eyes as she gazed at Maya. WhenElise lowered her hand, there was already a thin needle between her fingers.

“Hold on tight, Cameron!” Elise ordered. Cameron froze for a moment before he used his other arm topress Maya down firmly. Right then, Elise raised her hand to show Maya the shining needle betweenher fingers. She waved it around in front of Maya’s face.

Maya felt a chill running down her spine as the light reflected off the needle and struck her eyes. Sheturned her head sideways to keep a distance from the needle. “What are you trying to do?!”

“What do you think I’m doing?” Elise raised an eyebrow. “An evil woman has to act in ways to live up toher title, don’t you think? You were the one who said that the people I’m involved with always end up in

a mess. Well, you’re one of them now. I can’t leave you out, can I?”

“What logic is that?!” Maya shrank her neck to stay away from the needle. “I’m not related to you. Whyare you getting me involved in this?”

“Why aren’t you related?” Elise pressed the tip of the needle against Maya’s neck before she gentlytraced her skin with it. “Alexander’s mine and you’re in love with my man. That’s how we’re related,aren’t we?” With that said, Elise stabbed the slim needle into Maya’s skin in one swift motion.

Maya hissed in pain when she felt the needle poking into her trapezius muscle. She instinctively tiltedher head to the left to stay away from the needle. However, when she tried to return her head to heroriginal position, she realized that her entire neck had become stiff. She couldn’t move at all. “Whathave you done to me?!” Maya widened her round eyes in shock as she stared at Elise.

Elise curled her lips into an eerie smile. “Well, I love killing my enemies with kindness. Didn’t you hearwhat that handsome man said? He told you that you have a terminal illness. I simply helped you treatit.”

Claude’s ears twitched before he pointed at himself. “Handsome man? Did she just call me ahandsome man? Hahaha! Did you guys hear that? Father said that I’m a handsome man!” he criedexcitedly.

Maya wasn’t in the mood to care about anything else, and she eyed Elise suspiciously. “Are you thatkind?”

“No.” Elise wiped the smile off her face. “You keep calling me a witch and an evil woman, so whyshould I be kind to you? You actually have a terminal illness now. Are you finally satisfied? Are youhappy now?”

Am I happy? I’m practically in tears! Maya thought. However, she tried her best to calm herself down.It’s just a needle. She might have just done some tricks to get my muscles to tense up. If I break downin tears now, I will become a source of entertainment for Elise and the rest of these people.

Therefore, Maya gritted her teeth and stared at Elise calmly. “That’s fine. I don’t care what you just did.I’m rich enough to receive any treatment I want—that’s how I’m different from you. You’re just anunwanted orphan with no parents, Elise. As long as I leave this place alive, I’ll make sure to end yousomeday!”

“An unwanted orphan?!” Jeanie couldn’t stop herself from charging over when she heard what Mayasaid. “You’re the disrespectful and unwanted child here!” she cried as she gave Maya a slap.

Maya stumbled as a result of Jeanie’s powerful slap, and a look of disbelief filled Maya’s faceimmediately after that. By the time Maya returned to her senses and looked at Jeanie, Jeanie wasalready shouting at her. “Elise isn’t an orphan. She’s a biological child of the Anderson Family, andshe’s our precious little daughter. Who are you to cause such havoc here?!”

“That’s right.” Trevor had disliked Maya from the moment he laid eyes on her. If it wasn’t because hedidn’t hit women, he would have probably broken all the bones in her body. “You’re from the DahlenFamily, right? Go home and tell your father to pack up and leave. The Dahlen Family is dead meat!”
