Betrayed by Blood: My Second Life as a Queen novel Chapter 16

This time, she was going to crush Willow completely and ensure she was permanently banished from the Shaw family!

Watching Tessa's silent compliance made Leo's heart ache even more. For years, Tessa had constantly yielded to Willow out of pure kindness, yet instead of showing gratitude, Willow targeted her relentlessly!

No matter what, Willow had to come back and apologize to Tessa!

Without hesitation, Leo dialed Willow's number.

Xavier and Julian watched, making no move to stop him.

It was high time Willow learned her lesson.

Leo was fully prepared to call her a dozen times, but to his surprise, she picked up on the first ring.

Her voice drifted lazily through the speaker. Gone was the soft, eager-to-please tone she used to have, replaced by a cold edge of impatience. "What?"

Her attitude infuriated him instantly. "What the hell are you posting online? Delete it right now!"

Willow chuckled, casually taking a bite of her breakfast sandwich. "Leo Shaw, did I say anything that wasn't true?"

Leo?

Why wasn't she calling him brother anymore?

A strange, unsettling feeling bubbled in his chest. Before he could process the discomfort, Xavier snatched the phone from his hand.

His tone was absolute ice. "Willow, you've gone too far this time."

Willow laughed bitterly, suddenly losing her appetite. "I've gone too far? Are you braindead? She wanted to hijack the wedding, fine, I let her. I even handed over the wedding dress and the rings, and that still isn't enough for you people! What more do you want? Will you only be satisfied if I gift-wrap my own corpse as her wedding present? Xavier Shaw, if you don't have anything intelligent to say, shut up! You love her so much, you'd probably eat garbage if she handed it to you on a silver platter!"
