Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 883

"Charles! Charles!"

The door burst open and Charles shoved his way inside. He lunged forward and grabbed Lorna's arms. "Lorna, you have to save me! Help me! I can't get out!"

The estate was swarming with guards; there was absolutely no way he could slip past them.

Given how much Theresa hated him, if she caught him now, his life was over!

He would rot in a prison cell for the rest of his days. He would be ruined.

Lorna was completely bewildered, still half-asleep. "Charles, what... what's going on?"

"Lorna, please save me... you have to save me..."

Before Charles could even finish his sentence, Logan kicked the door open and stormed in with a team of security guards.

"I knew you'd be hiding here, Charles! Let's see you try to run now!"

Seeing that escape was impossible, a wicked idea flashed through Charles's mind. He instantly locked his arm around Lorna's neck and pressed his switchblade flush against her throat.

"Charles! What... what are you doing?!" Lorna shrieked in absolute shock.

Before she could even process the situation, she had become his hostage.

"Charles, I suggest you stop fighting a losing battle," Logan said coldly.

"Hahaha! I have no way out anyway! You all forced my hand! I'm telling you right now, if anyone takes one step closer, I'll slit her throat!"

Lorna couldn't believe what she was hearing. Tears spilled from her eyes as she choked out, "Charles, why are you doing this to me? What did you even do?!"

At that moment, Theresa walked into the room from the hallway.

"He snuck into my bedroom tonight. He tried to assault me, hoping to force a marriage so he could take over the Ellington family! Tell me, Lorna, is a man like this really worth your love?"

The bright, hopeful future she had been dreaming of was torn to shreds in an instant.

"You lied to me! You liar! You never loved me! You bastard, I actually wanted to have a family with you. I kept this baby for you!"

"Who told you to keep it?! I don't give a damn about a kid born to a servant! I wanted an Ellington heir! You're just a lowly maid. You're not worthy of me!"

Lorna was absolutely devastated.

Her true heart had been maliciously played with yet again!

"You are so completely heartless! You're not even a man. I must have been blind to ever fall for you!"

"Shut your mouth, you bitch. You don't have the right to speak right now. You were stupid enough to fall for it, so who else can you blame?"

Wiping his tears, Butler Avery looked at Theresa with immense guilt. "Miss Theresa, it's all my fault. Lorna was a fool, and she fell for his tricks again! I apologize with my life, but please... please save my daughter. She's the only child I have! I swear on my life she was tricked this time too. She never meant to help him hurt you!"
