“Then why didn’t you start with Marcelo?” Gianna said, clearly displeased. “Why go after Miguel first? I think he’s still somewhat useful.”

In the end, the three of them would meet the same fate. Still, compared to Miguel, the one Gianna truly resented was Marcelo.

He had been the first to see through her true face and intentions, and he constantly worked against her.

She had long wished for him to disappear.

“You think you can target whoever you want, whenever you want?” Regina replied coolly. “Every move has to go through careful judgment and assessment.”

If it were really that easy, Amelia would have been dealt with long ago.

Miguel had been chosen for a reason. He drank a glass of milk every night before going to bed, without fail.

More importantly, he always had someone else prepare it, which made him easy to get to.

He was not as cautious or suspicious as Marcelo, nor did he live as unpredictably as Maxwell, who was constantly out and about.”

Recently, whether intentionally or not, Miguel’s actions in Nygard Group’s legal department had caused several people to be dismissed.

Those people happened to be operatives she had planted inside the company.

Now that Miguel was out of the picture, it suited her perfectly.

Looking at Gianna, Regina continued, “And his moves in the legal department were already seriously interfering with our plans.

“Now that something has happened to him, the legal side. of Nygard Group will fall into chaos for a while. We can take advantage of that and place new people inside, regain control of the situation.”

Hearing this, Gianna felt slightly appeased, though she still could not help complaining, “But Marcelo is so irritating. He’s always targeting me. I really want him gone.”

Regina let out a cold laugh. “What’s the rush? You have to be patient when doing things like this.”

“He’s meticulous, and his bodyguards are not incompetent. And Miguel’s incident has already drawn the attention of the others in the Nygards. From here on, we need to move carefully.”

Regina felt that she was growing calmer by the day, more capable of seeing the bigger picture.

It was as if something in her blood was becoming purer more fully activated.

Things she could not do before, things she had not even dared to imagine, now came to her with effortless

ease.

“Emery was an unexpected bonus,” Regina said with a twisted smile. “I was still thinking about how to

torment her properly, and then fate went ahead and did it for me. How perfect.”

At the thought of Emery, a flicker of dark satisfaction passed through her eyes, her expression warping with pleasure.

No one’s good fortune lasted forever. No life stayed smooth from beginning to end.

Emery, that naïve woman raised in a greenhouse, had been born into wealth and married just as well into the Nygards.

She had lived as a pampered society lady for decades. Now that her luck had run out early, only suffering awaited her.

Myasthenia was exactly the kind of illness that made life worse than death.

Little by little, she would lose the ability to care for herself, trapped in pain she could not express, until she died in humiliation.

“I should find the time to visit her properly,” Regina said softly. “I want to enjoy the sight of her current half- dead state.”

She had long despised Emery, who occupied her position without truly deserving it.

She had thought that exposing her relationship with Raymond would be enough to leave Emery devastated for a month at most.

Now that fate had lent her a hand, Regina naturally wanted to savor the miserable sight herself.

And while she was at it, she could casually tell her a few things, provoke her a little more. That would be nice

too.

Gianna watched her mother, her expression twisted and unhinged.

Instead of finding it ugly, she felt admiration and awe.

She longed to be as capable as her mother, to scheme, to plan, to control everything from behind the

scenes.

With her own mother backing her, there was nothing to fear.

All she had to do was wait patiently. Soon, she would rightfully become the princess of the Nygards and truly possess everything the family had.

Regina knew that Raymond was already overwhelmed.

He had a mountain of company matters to deal with, along with the chaos at home,

So lately, she had pretended to know nothing, neither seeking him out nor bringing up any of these issues.

She learned that Emery’s condition had stabilized and that she was slowly recovering.

Although she still could not move around freely, at least she could speak and take care of herself.

How could Regina possibly let her have her way and truly recover?
