Her Chapter 412

Chapter 412

Lea took a few more steps and saw Christian and the others. They were all present. The only onesmissing were Luke and his group waiting downstairs due to space constraints. Upon seeing hercovered in blood, their faces were filled with worry.

“It’s not mine,” she said before they could ask. “It’s Alfred’s Everything’s fine now.” Everyone sighedin relief, their eyes reddening.

Christian stepped forward and embraced her, silently choking back tears. They didn’t know whathad happened, but it was clear that she had endured a terrible struggle.

Lea leaned into Christian’s embrace, feeling a pang of emotion, but quickly pushed it down. “Let’sgo,” she said. The group then left.

Lorenzo, accompanied by a few trusted aides, was waiting nearby to receive Liliana. He exchangeda distant glance with Lea and then turned to Colin, saying, “You”

*1 understand, Take Miss Alvarez back, Colin replied.

Lorenzo said, “Your recent performance has been excellent. We’re considering a promotion andraise for you.”

Colin looked at Willow, who was not far away and remained silent. He thought, “This is just toomuch!

After the commotion, the banquet was abruptly concluded. When Lea took Blake hostage, Rowleyhad to oversee the event, ensuring everyone was escorted out personally. Despite the dramaticupheaval, the departure was managed smoothly and efficiently.

As everyone departed, they received updates that the hostage situation had been resolved andBlake was safe. Even those who had left early were informed through various means.

It turned out to be a family dispute driven by the younger generation’s emotional issues, and it didnot tamish the Andrews family’s reputation. On the contrary, Liliana’s appearance highlighted theAndrews Group’s international strength, showcasing a level of influence that no other family couldmatch. The Andrews Group was undeniably the foremost family in Iverton and throughout Codren.

In the Bentley, Abigail glanced back at the brightly lit hotel entrance, feeling irritated by the calmatmosphere. It infuriated her that Lea could act so recklessly for Alfred.

There was a moment when she was deeply shaken and moved. Now, all she could think about waswhy Lea didn’t slit Blake’s throat and end her own life in the process.

She asked in frustration, “Mom, with what Lea did to Mr. Andrews, do you think the Andrews familywill just let it go? Won’t they report the ladnapping and have her thrown in jail!” She was eager tosee Lea face consequences.

In the car, it was just the both of them. The driver, Remy Tanner, was a loyal agent cultivated by theTanner family and would never disclose secrets, Following the incident at Conrad Hospital and thesituation involving Calvin, Leika replaced all her close aides, including the driver.

The bodyguards and assistants rarely traveled with them, staying in a Tollow–up security vehicle forprotection. It allowed for private and secure conversations inside the car.

Leika firmly stated, “No, it won’t happen. Mr. Andrews is an authoritarian who will not tolerate anychallenge to his authority, let alone threats to his life. Besides, Lea was already a thorn in his sidethat he wanted to remove. Moreover, this incident also involves Lady Liliana Manning”

Her ability to elevate the Tanner and Erickson families to their current status in Iverton’s social circlewas due not only to her exceptional qualities but also to her skillful management and deepunderstanding of the top figures in Iverton.

Abigail felt a sense of relief but remained far from joyful. Liliana’s influence over Leaovershadowed her and complicated her plans to pursue Alfred

Leika glanced at Abigail with a thoughtful expression. “Milion could be a good option as well” Giventhe complexities surrounding Lea’s relationship with Alfred and Liliana’s involvement, she wasstarting to feel urgency about securing a suitable match for Abigail. After all, only a few eligiblebachelors were among the top families, and each one taken meant fewer opportunities.

Abigail’s mind suddenly flashed with the image of Milton’s deep affection for Lea. She felt a pangin her heart, her breath catching momentarily. “But Mom, he can’t inherit the Andrews family,” shesaid, her face inadvertently showing a hint of regret

“Not necessarily.” Leika replied, her eyes flashing with sharpness. “Family succession is about thesurvival and prosperity of the entire family; it isn’t just about personal preference. If Mr. Andrewshadn’t seen potential in Milton, he wouldn’t have allowed him to reach his current position.”

Alagail felr enlightened and deeply shocked. After a long while, her mood finally began to settle.“Mom, what do you think about Lea and her Riverview Hospital

Last time, the knew the strategy involving Phillip and Conrad Hospital. If she had seized thatopportunity to take over the hospital and manage herself, she might have replaced Lea in hercurrent role and become the youngest and most dazzling entrepreneur in Iverton. It would havealigned with the kind of person Milion admired.

Leika’s eyes darkened. “Mrs. Mayer and Jeremiah want that hospital Theodora, her daughter, andJeremiah’s appearance represented a new force in Iverton. They had capital backing fromMaspeyria, making them a target for many prominent families and wealthy business people in thecity. Leika had investigated them

Abigail frowned, feeling unsettled. She thought, Arlene’s presence was overwhelming, she stole thespotlight at the banquet. If they take the hospital as well, it will be as if they are taking somethingthat rightfully belongs to me?

“Mom, will Phillip’s hospital be at risk?” Abigail asked, Leika fell into deep thought; Abigail added,“And then there’s Arlene; she seems terrified by Lea, almost like she’s gone mad.”

“Set up a meeting with Arlene later. Gather more information by probing her, Leika said.

“Alright” Abigail’s spirits immediately lifted. She often organized events and gatherings, not out of alove for socializing but to control the wealthy elite and lay the groundwork for her future.

As the Erickson family’s car drove off into the distance. Theodora and her daughter finally got intotheir van, which smoothly pulled away from the hotel entrance. Sensing that her daughter was stilltrembling, Theodora tried to reassure her. “Don’t worry,” she said. “Even if that bitch recognizes us,what can she do now? She’s completely fallen out with Mr. Andrews and can barely protectherself.”
