Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred) novel Chapter 26

Chapter 26 

“Alfred…” Lea felt his surging emotions and patted his back gently. “What’s going on? Her voice was light and a little shaky. 

After a while, Alfred let go of her and told her everything about the car the Berry family sent for her crashing into the river. Lea was not surprised. She wouldn’t get in that car even if she didn’t come here to operate the surgery. 

“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me,” said Lea confidently. “Still waiting to have the honor of being your girlfriend and enjoying it 

She looked at him with a sweet smile. Alfred’s eyes lit up a line. “What are you doing here?” He looked at the hospital building through the car window. 

“I was interested in a surgery here, so I came and operated it said Lea. She didn’t want to hide anything from him, but it was not the time for him to know everything about her yet.. 

Alfred had guessed her mind but didn’t confront her. “Let me send you home,” he said. 

“Okay” said Lea 

It was almost nine o’clock at night when they arrived at the Berry family’s mansion. The lights were still on, and the mansion was lit up as if it were day. It looked like a small palace from a distance. 

Alfred drove into the gate and pulled up at the garage. They got out of the car and walked to the living room. When they were at the door, they beard Matilda’s cries. 

“It’s all my fault. If I had picked up Lea and let the driver send her home, she wouldn’t have died in the accident. She’s only nineteen. Her life had just begun. I raised her, and it broke my heart to see her die so young” She sounded heartbroken while secretly gloating inside. 

Finally, she died! Too bad it was an easy death for her, Matilda thought, 

“Stop crying like she’s already dead. You don’t Inow for sure!” said Christian. He wouldn’t believe it unless he saw the body. 

“Grandpa…” said Helen, wiping her tears, “We had searched every corner in Vaporleon but couldn’t find her, and her phone was unanswered. She must be… Dead in the river. Helen didn’t finish her sentence. She was busy fake crying and pretending to be heartbroken 

Helen thought. I need to act better to get Granpa’s attention and love back! 

Christian’s heart sank again. 

The Berry family were all out to search for Lea for the whole afternoon but found nothing. The river where the car crashed into was wide, deep, and turbulent, making it difficult to find the body. 

Matilda wiped her tears. “Don’t worry, Christian. I’ll see family, and I’ve raised her. That’s the least I could do,” 

alked in 

“No need for that,” Lea said loudly and walked in. 

that they find Lea’s body and handle the funeral. She’s the daughter of the Berry. 

Everyone looked up, only to see Lea standing there with Alfred in her blue school uniform, her backpack on, and her long hair falling behind her back. Her presence was stunning. 

Alfred, standing next to her, was tall and handsome. 

Helen stared at him, forgetting to breathe. 

Lea walked up to Matilda, smiling weirdly. “Suprise! I’m not dead!” 

Matilda’s eyes widened. She stepped back abruptly and stumbled on her heels as if she had seen something terrifying. However, Matilda regained her composure quickly. She pulled Lea into her arms and cried like Lea was her biological daughter. “It is a surpriset Silly girl, I felt so scared! We were all so worried about you,” she said, gritting her teeth. 

Lea gently brushed her arms off and smiled. “Tin sorry for that.” 

Lea felt so good just looking at Matilda pretending to be a good mother even if she was pissed. Lea’s smile got broader. 

“Why are you home so late? Christian stood up angrily and asked. His eyes were red, but his tone was relieved and doting “Where have you been! Why didn’t you pick up your phone?” 

Lea glanced at Alfred and answered, “Sorry, Grandpa. I treated Mr. Andrews to dinner cause he helped me a lot before. The battery of my phone died. 

5:08 PM 

Chapter 26 

Helen suddenly realized who Alfred was Alfred was the heir of the Andrews family in Iverton. 

She had heard of the Andrews family and some of the excellent young men in that family, including their heir, Alfred. She didn’t expect him to be so luandumr. She felt like he had taken away her breaths, and her face blushed ubconsciously. 

A man as perfect as him had dinner with Lea, and the maids said he had been helping Lea these days: Helen thought. She was almost driven crazy by this thought 

“Why weren’t you in the car, Lea? Why didn’t you fall into the river?” Helen’s voice was sharp and exasperated. 

“What do you mean. Helen? Why should I be in the cart Lea asked on purpose. 

Matilda stepped in front of Helen to protect her. She meant the car Christian sent for you crashed into the river, and you didn’t come home -Π time, so we thought you were in the car. Thank god you’re not! Thank god you came home safely. You have no idea how worried we and your grandpa were.”
