Chapter 409 A Sharp Blade
+25 BONUS
Upon returning to Versant Villa, Bianca noted that Zane’s car was parked at the entrance. When Blanca carried in the item he had requested, Zane’s expression was cold and distant.
“Here’s what you wanted,” Bianca casually said as she approached him.
“Hmm.” With a noncommittal grunt from him, Bianca placed the items down.
“I’m tired. I’ll go rest upstairs.”
“You seemed pleased tonight,” Zane’s voice sounded dark as soon as Bianca began to turn
away.
She halted, turning back to meet his gaze.
Indeed, she felt genuinely pleased tonight.
“Yes.‘
Everything related to Malcolm had begun to unfold, and watching the turmoil it caused someone under his protection brought her immense satisfaction.
But more importantly…
There were greater plans in motion against Malcolm!
“Bianca.” Zane’s tone suddenly grew solemn.
“Yes?” She returned his gaze, her eyes sharpening slightly.
“Has anyone ever told you that you’re like a sharp blade?”
That she wasn’t to be trifled with?!
It was the same back in Verde City. Whenever divorce cases emerged, the other party would invariably attempt to bribe her before the trial even began when they heard she would be the opposing lawyer.
Such was her ruthless reputation.
If Bianca uncovered any dirt, she would use it mercilessly to tear the opposition apart.
Over time, many sought Bianca’s services, and she remained undefeated in her domain!
For a long period afterward, whenever someone in Verde City wanted a divorce, they would always find Blanca first and negotiate terms before revealing anything to their spouse!
They did this because they wanted to make sure that Bianca would be on their side!
Given this formidable reputation, did Malcolm truly believe he had destroyed her completely?
Even if not within her territory, she would always have the intention to dismantle any threat.
Taken aback by his words, Bianca approached Zane, stopping just a step away from the man. She looked up, meeting the gaze of the striking man before her.
She smirked and asked, “So, what do you want me to do?”
Bianca understood.
If Zane viewed her as a sharp blade, then… he intended to use her for his own ends, right?
Either way, they were both in this alliance for their own gains.
Zane gently gripped her chin. His voice carried a subtle yet palpable danger as he said, “Bianca, from now on… stand behind me, alright?”
Bianca retorted, “You…!”
“I will shield you from everything,” he declared.
A sudden realization dawned on Bianca. Before this, there were things she wanted to do that she couldn’t do in Simeria. Now, Zane was practically giving her permission to do as she pleased.
She could
1 pursue whatever she wanted relentlessly and without worry.
“Thank you,” she replied hoarsely.
He released her.
Though Bianca regained her freedom, she felt a sharp pang in her chest, causing her to tremble involuntarily.
Bianca had begun orchestrating subtle and overt strategies against Malcolm, and even those close to him found themselves caught in the crossfire.
On Natalie’s side, tensions flared just as intensely
No one truly grasped the rage brewing inside her. She was determined to tear Cedric to pieces by any means necessary.
Over a phone call, Natalie’s voice dripped with venom as she said, “I’ll get you the documents you need, but I want to see him fall
The nature of the agreement between Natalie and the person on the other end remained a mystery to all.
And her icy demeanor was unparalleled…!
“Agreed,” came a familiar, grave voice from the other end, sealing their transaction with a single word.
As the call ended, a chilling, razor–sharp intensity flashed in Natalie’s eyes, as if she could crush someone at any moment.
In the end, Cedric had pushed her to this point!
Those who truly knew Natalie understood her deep devotion to family. She had once lost everything and all her loved ones. After much hardship, she had reclaimed her family.
She cherished her family and everything she had right now.
How dare Cedric threaten her with Clyde?
Looking at those photos from years ago, just seeing what was depicted on them was shocking enough. He actually used public exposure as a threat against her?
As she exited the study, she bumped into Clyde, who had just returned home.
Seeing her, he furrowed his brows, “You’re not spending time with your daughter?”
His words only deepened the coldness in Natalie’s heart.
Yes, Luna!
Natalie should have been carefree and spending time with Luna without worries.
But how could she?
With Cedric’s looming threats, her once stable world was now fraught with turmoil.
“Bro.” Natalie approached, wrapping her arms around Clyde’s lean waist.
At that moment, an intensifying coldness gripped her heart. The looming threats from Cedric made her feel increasingly endangered, and this sense of peril radiated from her.
Sensing this danger, Clyde held Natalie tightly. “Has he threatened you again?”
“Cly!”
“Hmm?”
“I’m thinking of moving to Peach Garden,” Natalle declared.
Clyde’s grip tightened around her, his memories of what Cedric had done to Natalie in the past unforgivable and unforgettable.
Now, to stoop to such despicable tactics to threaten Natalie?
His voice was laden with anger. “You don’t have to bother about him. I don’t care about those things.”
