Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 239

Miranda watched with a calm gaze as Adam approached her, his face twisted with anger and spite. The people around them jumped up, startled by the scene, and quickly stepped aside to avoid the confrontation.

Hannah's expression changed too. "What the heck! Mira, you better run!"

Adam looked like trouble from the get-go, and Hannah's heart raced with anxiety. It seemed he had accidentally wandered into this café, initially intending to splurge on a cup of coffee, just to experience the life of luxury.

But he was taken aback when he learned that a cup would cost him a few dollars. Moreover, the café staff, recognizing him, refused to serve him. A confrontation erupted as Adam began hurling insults at the barista.

In the midst of his tirade, his gaze landed on Miranda. His already simmering anger boiled over, and he shifted his ire toward her. Fury made his eyes blood-red, prompting him to settle scores with Miranda.

The Zade family was on the brink of ruin recently. They were embroiled in lawsuits, and at first, they didn't take it seriously. "Let them sue," they thought, "we're not afraid." But soon, a judgment was passed, ordering them to pay a hefty sum.

Luna and her husband paid it no mind at first. They figured if they simply didn't pay, nothing would happen. That was until their bank accounts were suddenly emptied, and they realized the gravity of their situation.

And they blamed it all on Miranda, the woman they despised. Adam was almost upon Miranda when suddenly, a strong hand grabbed his arm, stopping him in his tracks. His expression shifted as he recognized the man.

"It's you."

Miranda and Hannah turned to see who had stepped in. Both of them were slightly taken aback, not expecting him to appear out of the blue. It was indeed a surprise. Miranda couldn't help but wonder if this was all orchestrated.

Dorian's gaze was icy. "What do you think you're doing?"

The frosty tone snapped Adam back to reality. His courage to confront Miranda stemmed from the assumption that she was an easy target, just a woman to be bullied. But in the presence of Dorian, who outmatched him in every way, Adam was cowed.

"I was just going to teach this shameless wretch a lesson," Adam said quickly, his demeanor shifting. "You don't like her either, right? How about I rough her up a bit, and you give me some cash?"

In Adam's mind, the Hawke family was no fan of Miranda. Back then, they had always estranged themself from her, despised her, favoring Adam’s sister over her. And due to the lawsuit they were involved in, he was unaware that Arabella had been ousted from the family recently.

Hannah peeked at Miranda, then back at Dorian. Miranda tugged her lips, stirring her coffee.
