Reborn Fake Heiress Watch the Whole Family Burn novel Chapter 885

Charles's eyes bulged in absolute disbelief as he stared down at Lorna.

In seconds, his shock morphed into explosive rage, and he raised his own knife to strike her down in retaliation.

But Lorna didn't give him the chance. She violently ripped her blade free and drove it back into him, over and over again with terrifying speed.

"Go to hell!"

"Die!"

"You animal! You lied to me!"

"Monster! Monster! Psycho! You're not even human! Not human!"

Lorna stabbed him frantically, her face splattered with crimson.

Her hands and the hilt of the knife were completely drenched in his blood, dripping heavily onto the floor.

"Lorna! Lorna!" Butler Avery screamed in agony.

Seeing Charles finally stop moving, Lorna seemed to lose all the strength in her body and collapsed heavily to the floor.

She landed face-to-face with Charles's motionless body.

She reached out and slapped his lifeless face hard. "Keep insulting me! Go on, keep degrading me! Say something! Say it!"

Charles lay dead, his eyes wide open, blood pooling from his mouth, entirely motionless.

"Hahaha! Hahahaha!" Lorna broke into a chilling, maniacal laughter.

Theresa handled the messy aftermath of the incident.

A few days later, accompanied by Butler Avery, Lorna went to the hospital and aborted the child.

She became completely withdrawn and silent. Once her body had recovered, Butler Avery sent her away to the countryside to heal.

...

Gloria scoffed loudly. "Oh please, Bianca, stop exaggerating. If we land this, the Fairchild Group will elevate its market status significantly! Dad, I've thoroughly researched this. It is absolutely viable. Even the Sinclair family took on a similar project in the past! They succeeded, they just eventually shifted their focus to other sectors. The model is proven and the risks are mitigated. What are you so afraid of? I think you're just shooting it down on purpose because I brought it in!"

"You've been working here for so long, and yet we haven't seen a single dime from Aurelis Holdings. Who knows if you're actually reliable? We shouldn't hold our breath waiting for Aurelis. We need to rely on ourselves so we don't have to beg for scraps!"

Jonathan seemed swayed by Gloria's argument.

Aurelis Holdings kept making excuses to delay their collaboration, and he couldn't exactly afford to burn bridges with Sean Maddox by pushing too hard.

If Gloria's project succeeded, it would put the Fairchild family in a much stronger position.

"We'll move forward with Gloria's proposal. I think it's a gamble worth taking, and the risk doesn't seem that extreme," Jonathan finally ruled.

A smug, triumphant smirk instantly appeared on Gloria's face.

As the two sisters left the office, Gloria crossed her arms over her chest and sneered. "Bianca, did you really think you could run this entire company all by yourself? See? When it comes down to it, the person Dad trusts the most is still me."

"This project is going to bleed money, and when it does, it's going to drag the whole company down with it! If you insist on being this reckless, don't come crying to me later," Bianca fired back sharply.
