Chapter 355

Abigail’s eyes immediately showed a look of disappointment. “How much longer do we have to wait!”

“This situation with your cousin is very serious. If it’s not handled properly, the Tanner family will suffer enormous losses.” Leika was agitated and

angry

The matter concerning Calvin had been exposed online, and millions of eyes were

ere watching. In an era where a century–old reputation could collapse instantly, the impact was extremely damaging

The Tanner family’s stock price plummeted, losing billions of dollars within minutes.

Leika added, “Our family will also be affected. Your father’s position is too important to be tainted by even the slightest scandal. Otherwise.”

His position would be compromised, with unimaginable consequences.

Abigail’s anger surged, her face twitching with pain, which only made her more furious.

The Tanner family had more money than they could ever spend, so losing billions of dollars shouldn’t matter to them. Abigail didn’t care

e about the Tanner family’s losses.

As for her father, he had a high position so he shouldn’t have any concerns. He should immediately use his power to settle the Tanner family’s issue and deal with Lea!

Seeing her expression, Leika quickly comforted her, “Abigail, I know you’ve been wronged. Don’t worry. Lea will pay the price, and you’ll be satisfied. Just wait a little longer, alright!”

Abigail remained silent for a moment before turning and heading upstairs.

She wasn’t going to wait any longer. Dealing with Lea wasn’t beyond her capability.

“Take good care of Miss Abigail, Leska immediately instructed the servants.

“Yes” The servants hurriedly followed her upstairs.

There was no denying that the Erickson family reacted quickly

That very day, Abigail’s father, Harold Erickson, made a public statement. He claimed that Calvin’s case would be thoroughly investigated and that there would be no leniency.

That evening, in her dormitory study at the hospital, Lea sent the surgical plan for Lorenzo to Lorrand. Then she opened the web page and saw Harold’s statement. It was trending at the top, right beneath Calvin’s trending topic.

Harold was a figure of immense power.

He didn’t attend public events and had low exposure, silently building his achievements in his position, with his influence growing steadily. His influence in the political world was akin to that of the Patton family in the military.

Before Lea traveled back in time. Harold’s position continued to rise after Leika and the Tanner family gained even more status and wealth. He became someone even Milton sought to connect with

He was Abigail’s greatest support. To completely retaliate against Abigail, Lea needed to destroy Harold

This formidable enemy, whom Lea had been thinking about ever since she went back in time, had finally revealed himself.

The night was cold, with the air outside as icy as frost.

Alfred gently pushed the door open and saw a faint light coming from Lea’s half–open study. That small light warmed his heart.

Christian and Ewan were still in Iverton, and it was rare for them to stay overnight here.

Even though it was already midnight after work, Alfred missed his girlfriend so much that he drove for an hour to get there.

The road conditions were poor, with patches of ice making the journey difficult, but it only made him more eager to get home. He knew the Berry father and son wouldn’t come to this place at this hour.

Alfred took off his down jacket, leaving it in the entryway closet, along with the cold that clung to him, and headed for the study.

As soon as he entered, he saw Lea bent over the desk, staring at the computer screen. Her small figure emanated a powerful intensity.

It was rare for anything to capture her attention so completely that she didn’t notice his approach

Chapter 135

Alfred said. “Harold, are you planning to go after him?”

Lea tensed up, finally snapping out of her thoughts. She turned and saw Alfred

He was wearing a white sweater, still carrying the cold scent of the icy night. It brought her to her senses.

He stood hacklit, his flawless features were softened and his gaze was gentle. It made Lea want to fall into his embrace

Lea was naturally alert, with instincts that reacted faster than most, but not with Alfred. So, she didn’t realize he was behind her until he spoke. She turned her chair to face him.

Alfred stepped closer, gently brushing the stray hair strands from her forehead.

“Yes.” She nodded, her tone calm but firm. “The Erickson family, the Tanner family, I want them all.”

Abigail had killed Alfred, their child, and her people. The Erickson and Tanner families were all her accomplices. Not one of them could be spared.

“But we’ve got plenty of time. We’ll take it slow.” Lea tried to mask the urgency in her heart.

She knew Alfred was far more powerful than she was, and whatever she wanted, he would give her. But she couldn’t let him get hurt or sacrifice himself. She had to avenge her wrongs

Of course, she wanted to exact revenge as quickly as ponible, but she wasn’t strong enough yet. Going head–to–head with these two families now would be a losing baule.

Lea needed to exact her revenge, but more importantly, she wanted to live well with Alfred.

Alfred’s gaze flickered briefly, but he hid his emotions He understood what she was thinking and what she was worried about.

He also knew the depth of her hatred. Although she had never spoken a word about it, suppressing her emotions, never showing them in front of him, he knew it all

Alfred had never dared to ask Lea what had happened when he was no longer around

But their cluld had died. She had returned with a deep and unyielding vengeance. And she had come back only two years after him.

It must have been his greatest fear. Alfred didn’t ask because he didn’t want to bring up bad memories that would cause her pain.

While he was still alive, Abigail, the Tanner and Erickson families, had been there with Lea

Seeing her actions now, Alfred understood everything.

“It’s not too dificult. Harold may hold a high position, but his background is not clean. His tone was calm, with no hint of tension.

People like Harold weren’t enough to threaten him.

Seeing Alfred’s reaction, Lea felt a weight lift off her chest

His hand rested on the chair as he leaned in, his warm breath brushing her face. Lea, you’re sull young, just a twenty–year–old college freshman. You’ve already risen so quickly, creating a new history of brilliance. His eyes were filled with pride, a sense of shared honor. “We have plenty of time, no need to rush.”

Lea could feel the warmth of his hand on her forehead, his scent filling her nostrils, and his fiery gaze was all she could see

He had stripped away all her other senses until there was only him

Lea wanted Alfred. She wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him in for a kiss on his lips.

At that moment, she set aside her hatred and worries, focusing only on him.

Alfred couldn’t resist. If she weren’t busy and exhausted, with so many things left to do, he would have wanted nothing more than to hold her close and not let her leave the bed.
