Betrayed by Blood: My Second Life as a Queen novel Chapter 144

Tessa glanced sideways at Elias, her heart plummeting into a suffocating abyss.

A few days ago, Beatrice had demanded she step down, which she could barely stomach. But Elias's words just now felt like a brutal slap straight across her face!

He was definitely missing Willow! He absolutely wanted a divorce!

A suffocating wave of panic washed over Tessa, leaving her gasping for air as she finally snapped back to reality.

She was just an adopted daughter of the Shaw family. If Xavier and the others ever abandoned her, her decade of luxury and status would vanish into thin air!

She had fought so hard to secure her place in the wealthy Landon family, how could she ever let it go?

She was going to sink her claws into Elias and never let go, no matter the cost!

Meanwhile, Elias looked at Willow in absolute disbelief.

Why was Willow still playing hard to get? He had already swallowed his pride and compromised, what reason did she have to keep throwing a tantrum?

Driven by impulse, he stepped forward to grab her, but Caspian swiftly blocked his path.

Caspian might have seemed mild-mannered, but he had spent years working out. He was in excellent shape, and Elias couldn't easily push past him.

After several failed attempts, Elias seethed with frustration. He took a deep breath, his eyes locked onto Willow. "I suggest you stop being so ungrateful. With your background, who else but me would ever want you? I am the best you're ever going to get. You don't honestly think York has feelings for you, do you? To him, you're nothing but a mere plaything!"

Willow met his gaze with absolute calm. While she desperately wanted York to acknowledge his identity as 'W', she never once desired any inappropriate relationship with him.
