She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 719

"Your brother might be dead set on marrying her," Elara purred, "but I highly doubt Melanie feels the same way about him!"

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Gabriel frowned.

Elara just shrugged and let out a dark chuckle, refusing to elaborate.

When she first heard Preston had landed in the hospital over Melanie again, her initial plan was to casually leak the news to his mother.

But since Preston had dispatched Gabriel to barricade her in, he'd probably have her tailed the moment she left the building.

Sitting behind her desk, Elara's eyes glinted with malice.

Tattling to Marjorie Kent wasn't even the main event anymore. That was just petty drama.

The real trump card was already on his way.

Mr. Thorne, a corporate titan from Xavorn, was a powerful man who knew exactly who Preston was.

She would host a lavish dinner party and ensure Preston and Melanie were both in attendance. Then, she would let Mr. Thorne casually expose Preston's true identity as the reigning CEO of Stellaris PharmaTech right in front of Melanie's face.

Melanie's suspicions about the Whitmore family's connection to Stellaris were already at a boiling point. It was time to deliver the final, explosive gift.

Gabriel had expected Elara to throw a tantrum over being monitored. Instead, she was smiling.

It was a deeply unsettling, predatory grin, as if she were envisioning something catastrophic.

Gabriel's mouth twitched, and a shiver ran down his spine.

Meanwhile, at Lexington Medical Center.

Night had fallen.

Heavy storm clouds blotted out the stars, swallowing even the faintest sliver of moonlight.

"The wind is howling out there. It's going to pour the second it stops," Melanie murmured, pulling the hospital window shut.

Preston remained on his stomach.

The doctor had been very clear: given the severity of the burns, he had to maintain this strict prone position for at least two weeks.
