Chapter 155 Cheap and Underhanded Tricks

Still burning with rage over the humiliation she had suffered earlier, Cecilia spoke to her son in a sharp tone.

“Chase, we can’t keep letting things go on like this. Didn’t you say Nina still has feelings for you? We gotta move fast and lock this down for good.”

“Mom, even if things have turned cold between Katrina and me, we’ve still been married for years. She’ll never agree to a divorce anyway. Besides, there’s Wilder to think about. Nina would never want to take on such a burden.”

Cecilia looked utterly displeased after hearing his words.

“Wilder is my grandson. He must never stay with Katrina. Didn’t you say Nina likes you? Find a way to get her pregnant with your child. Once that happens, she’ll have no choice but to marry you. After you divorce Katrína, I’ll take full care of Wilder.”

Chase wavered a little at this suggestion.

Cecilia kept pushing her idea forward.

“A woman’s heart will always be tied down once she has a child. Trust my judgment. I’ve got a perfect plan that will work for sure.”

With that, she pulled Chase quietly into her private bedroom. She took an old prescription paper out of the drawer, along with several charm slips that looked worn with age.

“Get a doctor to prepare the ingredients written here,” she whispered. “Burn these charm slips into the mixture, then find a chance to make Nina drink it. This old recipe works wonders for conceiving. I used it myself to get pregnant with you all those years ago. Once she carries your child, even the Tann family will have no way to refuse letting her marry into our family.”

She pressed all those things firmly into Chase’s hands as she spoke.

Though Chase thought the whole plan sounded ridiculous, he gave in reluctantly.

Katrina stood outside the door and overheard every single word of their conversation.

She was filled with anger, yet she dared not rush in to confront them right then.

She feared Chase might decide to end their marriage out of sheer stubbornness, if she made a scene now.

Biting her lower lip anxiously, she left the Mercer Villa right away and dialed Nina’s number.

“Nina, it’s me. I need to talk to you about something extremely important.”

Katrina took a taxi to a nearby café and waited there for quite a long time before Nina finally showed up.

Nina had not dressed up elaborately, only wearing casual denim shorts and a plain short sleeve top, yet she still looked stunning and radiant. A flicker of bitter jealousy flashed across Katrina’s eyes.

Back in high school, Nina had been plain and unremarkable.

In just six short years, she had turned into the kind of woman every man dreamed of having.

Katrina could not help feeling unfair.

stated for a moment before speaking gently.

Chase mistakenly believes you still have feelings for him. The two of them are planning to slip you special

hoping to get you pregnant. They think that will force you to marry into the Mercer family,”

Nina let out a soft laugh after listening to the whole story.

She had expected them to come up with some powerful and ruthless plots, yet all they could think of were such cheap and underhanded tricks.

“You have to believe me, everything I said is the truth!” Katrina urged nervously.

“I know you are the heiress of the Tann family. You come from a good family, you are beautiful and you have never been married. You can easily find someone far better than Chase. Don’t let the Mercer family ruin your entire future with their dirty tricks *

Her words sounded sincere, but deep down, she was only terrified of losing the life and status she still had to Nina.

“get it. Thanks for coming all this way to tell me this. I’ll keep myself on guard,” Nina replied calmly.

Seeing that Nina seemed rather indifferent to her warning, Katrina suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her arm anxiously. “Nina, I admit I’m jealous of you, but Chase and Wilder are all I have left. I beg you, please don’t take them away from me
