Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 663

She poured out her heart to Seth, telling him how much she missed him. But the man sitting across from her didn't respond. His gaze was dark and inscrutable, even cold. Even then, Bianca didn't think much of it, assuming it was just the inappropriate setting.

So she reined in her emotions, though her eyes remained red-rimmed. "You must have had a hard time too, right?"

She knew the situation was complicated, but she believed that as long as Seth was here, any problem could be solved. It was only a matter of time before she got out.

"Oh, right. A lawyer named Coley just told me they've added several new felony financial charges, but he didn't say who filed them. Seth, you should look into it later, find out who's suing me."

Bianca chattered on. There was so much she wanted to tell him, but the setting forced her to be brief and stick to the important points.

"I filed them."

The silent man suddenly spoke. His voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was clear enough for her to hear.

Bianca froze, her face a mask of disbelief.

"Your arrest, that was my plan too."

"Your mother, your aunt, and your cousin getting caught—I orchestrated that as well."

"Of course, if they hadn't broken the law, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to put them in here. So, in the end, they only have themselves to blame for their downfall."

"And so do you."

Seth’s voice was completely calm as he said these words, as if he were speaking to a perfect stranger—emotionless and detached.

But each sentence was a fatal blow to Bianca. The hope in her heart was crushed, ground into dust, and trampled under his feet.

Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at him, as if seeing a stranger for the first time. The man she believed loved her so deeply… it was all a lie.

All of it!

Was there anything real in this world?
