Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred) novel Chapter 51

Chapter 51 

So, it seemed Christian still had a lot of trust in Matilda 

Lea just gave a little nod. 

After they wrapped up their late–night supper, Christian went to sleep, and 

went to sleep, and Lea followed suit. 

The next day, Lea pretended to head to school but ditched and went straight to the hospital instead, with Lorrand leading her to Chandler’s ICU 

noom 

Lorrand figured she was there to visit the patient. 

Chandler was in critical condition, barely clinging to life. 

“You got things to do. I’ll stick around here,” Lea said as she walked into the ICU and closed the door behind her 

With other patients desperately needing his attention, Larrand got back to work. 

Approaching the bed. Lea took in the sight of Chandler. His face was grotesquely swollen, his skin an eerie shade of bluish–purple, with a jagged wound across his forehead and one eye nearly hanging out. 

His injuries were horrifying–his abdomen was torn open, and both legs were shattered. He was struggling to breathe, just barely hanging on Hearing footsteps, Chandler painfully lifted his eyelids. Through his blurred vision, he barely made out a figure and weakly called for help 

Lea knew what he needed and quickly administered a shot. Within moments, he was alert and regaining consciousness. 

As his vision cleared, he saw a “doctor” standing before him. 

“Help…” he croaked. 

Lea moved closer, her face coming into sharp focus as she removed her mask. 

Chandler’s eyes bulged with horror, his words lodged in his throat. 

He’d harmed countless girls, but Lea’s face was unforgettable. Not just strikingly beautiful, she was the only victim who had ever drugged and escaped from his grip. 

She hadn’t just escaped; she had turned the tables on him and exposed his deeds with the help of Helen. 

Chandler and his buddies had nearly drained their life savings, working with the Berry family to mitigate the disaster. 

But now, looking into her eyes, cold and sharp as scalpels, he realized they had never truly escaped. His current dire situation with Shawn was all her doing 

Bit by bit, she had dismantled their lives, dragging them deep into the abyss. 

Now, the stunning face before him seemed like a demonic entity from hell, a grim reaper come to claim their souls. 

His breath was weak, his words barely audible, stuck in his throat. 

“Surprised“” Lea smirked, her expression a storm of rage. 

In a past life, Chandler and Shawn had raped her, led her to her death, and doomed her to a lifetime of oppression. 

“What you assholes did back then, you should’ve seen this day coming,” she said, her voice silky but laced with venom. 

Chandler’s head twitched, a feeble attempt to deny the inevitable. 

They’d dominated the entertainment industry for far too long, preying on naive, young girls who entered the scene without a clue. The girls‘ entire future in the industry, their chance to break out, was cruelly manipulated by these scumbags. 

They never anticipated a downfall like this, which was why they had acted with such reckless abandon. But now, their empire was crumbling. thoroughly and decisively. And he could feel it–the end was near. 

Without the shot of medication Lea had administered, Chandler’s thoughts wouldn’t even be this clear. He slowly closed his eyes, resigned to his 

Compared to what they had done, deaths seemed merciful. Life had become torture, each breath a painful struggle. Death seemed like a sweet release, a desperate escape from this agony. 

“You think it’s over? Lea cut through his resignation, forcing him to pry his eyes open once more. 

“Everyone in your precious industry is all about fame, right? Well your criminal anties have been trending at the top for over ten hours now,” she continued, her tone nonchalant. 

“People you’ve crushed, abused, and silenced are now united online, hungry for your downfall, she stated matter–of–factly. The big shots–singers, actors, directors, agents, investors–everyone is out for justice. Even the newcomers are stepping up, claiming their rights and fighting to make names for themselves” 

Chandler’s eyes reflected sheer despair. He knew the game too well, understood exactly how dire the situation had become. 

“Since last night, the stocks of Star Entertainment have plummeted repeatedly. You, Shawn, and your company are drowning in lawsuits, and they’re sull mounting. Lea explained, her voice grave. “Next up? Bankruptcy and a mountain of debt.” 

“Even if you died, those debts would cling to your family. They’d inherit nothing but your financial disasters because all their money is tied to you” she continued. They would end up penniless, destitute. 

“You’ve got two wives, right? And a lover who just bore your child six months ago, she probed. “So, you’ve got five kids, right? Your eldest is nearly thirty, married already. Then there’s the baby, just six months old, and another kid in elementary school. The others are scattered around different 

school” 

“They’re all living large abroad, basking in the luxuries of your wealth. But what happens to them if all that wealth evaporates?” she pressed. 

Chandler’s body stiffened and trembled. He wasn’t scared for himself, but the thought of his family’s future left him shaking. He tried to speak, but all that came out were sobs.
