Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 1069

Suella only grew angrier the more she thought about it. Thus, she stopped at the steps after exiting the hospital's main entrance to text Maverick, 'Is the money ready? I will publicize the report and destroy you if I don't see it! Get ready for a life in jail!'

After sending off the message, the young woman hailed a cab. She believed Maverick wouldn't answer her calls, nor would he respond to her text so quickly. But right after entering the cab, she received the man's reply. 'Thirty million isn't a small figure. Give me one week.'

'Okay,' replied Suella, and her mood instantly brightened up.

At that, she looked up in the direction of Paul's ward through the window and scoffed. "Pfft, how dare you despise me just because I'm unlucky? Well, I have a problem with you two, you cursed b*stards! I've had enough of you both! Just wait for your lonely deaths!"

…

After deliberating at home for two days, Rylantha ultimately decided to help Owen sniff around at the thought that she had nearly died in Alexander's hands.

She deliberately chose to visit in the afternoon as she would be able to avoid most of the residents in Griffith Manor, and just as she assumed, Only Camren and Rebecca were in the house.

The two were in the living room, with Camren scrolling the tablet on the armchair while Rebecca fed him fruits. The two were behaving so affectionately that Rylantha thought she was going to be sick. However, to stay alive, she held back her emotions and went in.

"Dad." Rylantha put the gifts she got for them on the table and proactively greeted the two. "How has it been staying here?"

"Perfectly fine when you're not around to piss me off." Camren instantly turned grim and grew increasingly disappointed at Rylantha after learning the young woman had provoked Anastasia at the resort.

Rylantha felt incredibly humiliated, but she found it too embarrassing to go soft in front of Rebecca. As such, she merely let out a sigh.

"You guys talk. I'll check on the soup." Rebecca quick-wittedly made an excuse to leave, giving the father and daughter some space alone.

Meanwhile, Rylantha's gaze followed the woman, and it was when the kitchen door closed that she humbled herself, apologizing to Camren. "I'm sorry, Dad. I did all of that because I was worried you wouldn't love me anymore with your other daughter around. You have to put yourself in my shoes too, you know."

"What do you keep in that head of yours? You're both my daughters. How can I favor one and not the other?! You can manage an empire, yet you're stumped by such a trifle matter," exasperated Camren with disappointment.

"It's on me. But I've come to apologize now, haven't I? You're not going to keep being mad at me, are you?" Rylantha probed. If Camren decided to put the issue behind them, it would mean that he still cared about her. By then, even if Alexander found out she was involved in the kidnapping, she wouldn't need to worry about not having protection.

"And why would I do that? Do you think I'm petty like you women?" Camren had loved his dear daughter all his life, after all. Naturally, he wasn't going to leave her defenseless. "How about this? Apologize to your sister in front of everyone when she comes back later. I'll mediate the situation, and we'll put the issue behind us."

"Anything you say," Rylantha agreed nicely, then hurriedly asked Camren while Rebecca was still away, "Dad, where is Alexander's room?"

"Why do you want to know about that?"

"I heard he's sick. We'll become in-laws once Ariel marries his brother. As Ariel's sister, I should at least see how he's doing, no?"

"Very good of you to consider that." Camren nodded in reassurance, then said solemnly, "Alex's sickness is pretty serious. He hasn't come around after so many days. Who knows if he'll even make it? A patient needs to bask in the sun more often, as they say, so they put him in the first room to the left on the second floor. If you care about him, you should ask your business partners to look around; see if there are any reliable doctors they'd recommend."

"Got it. I'll ask around." Rylantha acknowledged it perfunctorily, then helped him up. "It's time for your afternoon nap. Here, I'll help you to your room."

Pleased with her change, Camren said, "Looks like it was a good decision that we searched for your sister. You're now behaving much better than you used to."

To that, Rylantha didn't answer him but only forced a barely noticeable smile. Oh, so I was good enough for you before Ariel showed up, and now that she's back, I'm problematic no matter what. Huh, just admit you like Ariel more.

Since she had long figured it out, she wasn't upset by it. She just found it ironic.
