I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 266

"What do you want me to do?"

"I want to completely destroy their reputations."

"Their? How many people are we talking about?" Ford frowned.

"The one who stole my spot was Lily. But the worst part is her accomplice. It's her best friend, Sienna Sterling. I asked around—she's a doctor."

"Sienna Sterling?" Ford's voice spiked sharply.

Angeline looked up at him.

"Do you know her?"

Ford stared at her, maintaining a chilling silence for several seconds.

"No."

He had been racking his brain trying to find a way to break Sienna.

He never imagined the woman would practically hand him the perfect weapon by causing trouble on her own.

This was serendipity. He could avenge Angeline and force Sienna to swallow her own bitter pills in one fell swoop.

"If this Lily and Sienna are best friends, then destroying Sienna will shatter Lily by proxy," Ford said, lazily flicking his cigarette ash. "Sienna is a doctor. It's incredibly easy to target her from that angle."

Angeline remembered the humiliation of that day and gnashed her teeth.

A simpleton like Lily couldn't have pulled that off alone—it was obviously that manipulative bitch Sienna pulling the strings.

She pressed her soft body flush against his.

"What's your master plan?"

Ford crushed out his cigarette, a wicked, venomous smirk creeping onto his face.

Mercy International Hospital was the crown jewel of his brother-in-law, Silas Hayes.

Silas ran the hospital with absolute iron-fisted authority.

Any doctor who crossed his ethical red lines was immediately blacklisted from the medical field.

Ford was going to personally watch Sienna get dragged through the mud until she was nothing but a disgraced stray dog.

Ford leaned in and whispered his strategy into Angeline's ear.

As she listened, her eyes sparkled with malicious delight, an uncontrollable grin spreading across her painted lips.

"Ford, you are an absolute genius."

His phone rang again.

Ford snatched it up with an annoyed snarl.

"Mom, I am so, so sorry. I've been drowning in work lately. I barely have time to eat or drink."

He looked up, forcing his eyes to redden as he clenched his fists tight.

"Every time I think about you suffering in here, I can't find a single moment of peace out there."

Yolanda gazed at him, all her pent-up resentment melting into profound maternal heartache.

"Oh, my sweet boy. I knew it. I always knew you were the only one who truly cared about me. My love for you wasn't wasted. Your father is utterly heartless. He's abandoned me. No one else is coming to save me."

Ford put on a spectacular show of wiping away non-existent tears.

"Mom, I do have some incredible news. Felicia is pregnant."

A brilliant light flared in Yolanda's exhausted eyes.

"Good. That's wonderful! With this child, you'll have two heirs. The Fletcher family legacy is securely yours."

Ford practically oozed confidence.

"Obviously. It's not like anyone is banking on a pathetic loser like Finn."

At the mention of Finn, Yolanda's expression immediately hardened into something deadly serious.

"Ford, listen to me. The reason I needed to see you is because I have something of absolute, critical importance to tell you."
