Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 543

That night.

Sylvia Shaw was hauled into Northport by Katherine's men.

Inside the dimly lit confines of The Westside Warehouse, Sylvia was thrown onto the ground. As she pushed herself up, her eyes finally adjusted to the shadows, revealing Katherine's imposing figure.

She turned ghostly pale, trembling uncontrollably as she lowered her head.

Katherine sat rigidly in a chair, radiating an overwhelming aura of power as she glared down at her.

"How dare you return to this country? Did I not warn you the first time?"

She had paid this woman fifty million dollars to vanish off the face of the earth.

She hadn't expected her to crawl back six years later.

Was the woman practically begging for a death sentence?

Katherine sat in silence, exuding a murderous chill.

Sylvia shook her head frantically, her voice quivering with terror.

"I... I just missed my daughter so much."

"Ms. Miller, Sebastian's incident was years ago. No one will ever find out, and I promise I won't breathe a word. Please, I'm begging you to let me go."

At the mention of a child, Katherine's tone dropped to a lethal cadence.

"Your daughter? You mean the one named Stella Foster?"

Sylvia flinched, looking up in sheer shock. "H-How did you know?"

"Hah! You've got some nerve, giving birth to Sebastian's child behind my back. What was your master plan? Wait until she grew up to use her as a pawn to steal the Miller fortune?"

If this woman hadn't shown up, Katherine would have simply ordered someone to kidnap the little brat and end her.

But since she was here.

Why not make the mother do the dirty work herself?

Using the biological mother would perfectly cover their tracks.

Sylvia desperately shook her head in defense.

"No, you have it all wrong! I was already pregnant before you ever found me."

"I had the baby because I wanted Alaric to take her in. The man I love is Alaric, and I was planning to use the child to marry him."

Terrified that Katherine would refuse and banish her overseas again, she collapsed to the floor, practically groveling at Katherine's feet.
