The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 83

Milford didn’t answer, simply rubbing his brow in exhaustion. “Mom, I will investigate this matter thoroughly. But until then, stop forcing me to make any decisions.”

Gloria opened her mouth to speak, but Milford had already turned and left, his back resolute and cold. This time, he wouldn’t be controlled by anyone!

...

Meanwhile, the landline in the living room of the Sloan villa rang sharply.

Clive, who was playing video games in the hall, answered impatiently, but his face darkened instantly upon hearing Milford’s voice.

“What did you say? Milford!” Clive slammed the table and stood up, laughing out of extreme anger. “Have you lost your mind?”

Milford was silent for a moment before speaking calmly, “The person I truly love is Leilani.”

“Leilani?” Clive practically squeezed the name through his teeth, anger surging in his eyes. “What kind of spell has she put on you? She’s the criminal who caused your sister to be paralyzed and lose her memory! Now that your sister is recovering, you can’t wait to get back together with that wretched woman? If that’s the case, why did you mess with our Tamara!”

Josiah heard the commotion and walked out of the study. Seeing Clive’s ashen face, he immediately realized something was wrong.

“Clive, what’s happening?”

Clive let out a cold laugh and put the phone on speaker so Milford’s voice could be heard clearly.

“It’s not a spell; I’ve finally seen my own heart clearly. Leilani is worth more than you can imagine. As for whether she harmed Yvonne, I will find out the truth. Compared to Leilani, you are far more disgusting to me!”

Tamara stood at the top of the stairs, tears falling silently as she heard everything. She felt terrified and uneasy. This time, she wasn’t acting; she was genuinely hurt by Milford’s words.

How could this be... Hadn’t Milford already promised her brothers that he would marry her soon?

Leilani! It was all Leilani!

Tamara’s gaze turned increasingly vicious. Her hatred for Leilani deepened.

Why couldn’t she just stay in prison forever or disappear from the outside world? The moment Leilani returned, her beautiful life was no longer the same.

Tamara’s desire to make Leilani vanish from this world was now identical to when she first learned she wasn’t the Sloan family’s biological daughter.
