The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2534

"Grandfather was the one who prepared clothes and food for you these past few days. He also got all the materials ready and arranged everything to ensure that you're able to get started at the company as soon as possible so that you can take over smoothly. How can

you say such a thing?" Sylvester's love for the old man had truly been engraved into his bones.

It made sense. Silas had brought him up, after all, so it was normal for him to feel for him.

I just smiled at Sylvester's words. For a moment, I was at a loss fo how to reply to him.

"Grandfather was wrong back then, but he was thinking of the family. If it weren't for him, the family would have long since crumbled."

"If I remember correctly, the Yards were in full swing. They had obviously already reached their peak back then. He was the one who wanted to go further and ended up forcing our mother to her death, no?!"

There were tears in my eyes all of a sudden having recalled the desperate face in the discs. I sniffled and said through choked sobs, "You really haven't watched the discs. If you're still so indifferent after watching them, then I really have to wonder if Mom was even your biological daughter.

"Regardless, I can't stand to remain in the Yard household any longer. I did think of something at first. I thought I would pretend to agree with you first and then replace a way to leave. Now, Ty and the others have come to pick me up. I'll leave with them no matter what."

I tried to leave first, but the two bodyguards in front of me were still blocking me. I turned around and looked at Silas. "If you don't want the events of the past to be brought up again, you'd better not stop me."

Tyler's phone started ringing the moment I said that. He answered it hands-free, and Shannon's voice sounded, "The press is here. Should I allow them to rush in?"

"Did you hear that, old master? Shannon and the press are already waiting at the door. If you don't let us go, the secret you've been trying to hide all these years probably won't remain as one anymore."

Silas let out a burst of laughter when he heard this and looked at me. "You approached me unaccompanied the other day to discuss terms. You would've released the news immediately if it had not been successful. The outcome is all the same.

"If you leave this pace today, it means you're making the Yard family your enemy. Are you sure you still want to leave?"

"This again. I won't remain with the Yards. If you want to teach me a lesson for leaving, by all means, go ahead. If you have any tricks, just use them, but please don't attack innocent people. Direct them all to me."

I never thought Silas' temperament

would change to begin with. He was still an old man who would teach someone a lesson if things did not go his way.

"You'd best think about it through. There's no good going against the Yard family," Sylvester reminded me aloud. It was obvious he did not want things to reach that point

between the family and me.

"I've thought about it. Be my enemy, then," I responded without thinking. I tried leaving again, but the bodyguards were still stopping me. "Let her go."

Silas' voice was hoarse.

"Grandfather..." Sylvester murmured.

I did not turn back to look at them again and immediately headed out with Tyler and Marius, leaving the study.

Before we left, I grabbed my mother's discs and took them with me.

We were finally leaving the Yard household. Just when we exited the gates, Shannon threw her arms

around me. "Wanda, it's good to see

you safe!"

I patted her shoulder and said with a smile, "It's alright now."

I looked out, but there was no one else around except the three of them. "Didn't you say that Shannon called the press?"

"Nah, we lied to him." Marius winked.

"Not bad. You held onto the lie for a long time. That's brave of you. But how did you guys manage to replace me?" "That's a long story..."
