The Heiress Reborn With A Mystic Space (Lillian) novel Chapter 968

Chapter 968 Merrick’s Worry

Lilian couldn’t help but chuckle. “Honestly, they really do think they’re the kings of Kingston, Why else would they be hold enough to leak my identity knowing full well I’m engaged to Sebastian?”

Merrick shot a sharp look at Sebastian. “And you’re just letting this happen? You’re just going to sit by while they bully her.

Lilian jumped in before Sebastian could answer. “Grandpa, don’t blame him. I’m the one who told him not to interfere

“Why on earth would you do that?” Merrick asked, clearly baffled.

Lilian’s expression was calm. “If this was going to come out eventually, what difference does it make if it happens today or next year? My identity was being used as a knife at my throat. By putting it out there myself, I take away their leverage. They can never threaten me with this again.”

Merrick looked pained. “But Lilian… that means everything with the Sinclairs is going to be dragged back up. I don’t want to see your old wounds ripped open for the world to see.” Just thinking about the pain she had endured as a child being turned into public entertainment made his heart ache for her.

Lilian squeezed Merrick’s hand. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’ve moved past it. I cut ties with the Sinclairs a long time ago. I’m not going to let the past hurt me anymore.”

Eric, who had been listening quietly, spoke up. “The problem is the takeover. The public doesn’t know you were the one behind Skyreach’s move on the Sinclair Group. Once they connect the dots, they’ll know you orchestrated the whole thing.

Lilian’s smile turned a shade colder. “That’s business. The Sinclair Group went under because they couldn’t compete. It’s as simple as that. I didn’t force Henry to steal the formulas or the raw materials for the Light Pills. He did that to himself. He’s the architect of his own ruin.”

“That’s true,” Eric countered, “but the world won’t se legacy for revenge.”

that way. They’ll just see a ruthless daughter who tore down her father’s

Merrick nodded fervently, his face full of anxiety. “Exactly! The internet is full of people who only look at the surface. They won’t care about reasons. Look, maybe you should head to Murica for a while? Just until the heat dies down?”

Lilian laughed out loud. “Grandpa, that’s a bit dramatic! If I ran away to another country every time things got a little loud, I wouldn’t deserve to run Skyreach. I have thousands of employees counting on me. I can’t just jump ship. Trust me, I can handle this. And I’m going to make sure the people who started this pay.”

Merrick saw the iron in her gaze and finally relented. “Fine. But I’m having the Philips Corp media team coordinate with you. We’ll back you a hundred percent.”

Sebastian’s deep, resonant voice cut in. “Don’t worry. I’ve already made the arrangements. I won’t let anything happen to her.”

Merrick grunted, looking at Sebastian. “You’d better not. If Lilian gets hurt, I’m holding you personally responsible.” He turned to Eric. “Go and check if we have any active projects with Soren Corp. If we do, kill them. All of them. I won’t be able to sleep until those bastards feel the sting of this.”
