The True Heiress Returns (Tilda Jenson) novel Chapter 691

Chapter 691 Fury

Cinished

They had once lifted up a girl who was not theirs by blood. They had defended her, adored her, and treated her as if she were the treasure of the family. In doing so, they had turned their backs on the daughter they had fought so hard to bring home.

What they had done to Tilda had been merciless, and now the weight of that cruelty pressed

down on them.

This was punishment. Every last piece of it was punishment.

“I’ll track Kyla down,” Dominic said, his voice cold, searing with rage. “This time she won’t slip away.”

His hands curled into fists until his nails cut into his palms.

The sting tore his skin, but he did not care.

That bite of pain was the only thing that kept his head from unraveling completely. It was the only thing that kept him composed.

His thoughts boiled with questions. He wanted to hear the truth from Kyla’s own lips.

Right there in front of his brothers, Dominic yanked out his phone.

His thumb struck the screen as he forced himself to dial Malcom’s number.

The ring dragged on, long enough to scrape at his nerves, before a voice finally answered.

Malcom’s tone was cold, edged like steel.

“Dominic, there’s nothing left for us to talk about. If you’re calling to waste my time, don’t bother. I already told you the truth. You lost.”

“Malcom, just answer me one thing. Is Kyla with you?”

Dominic’s voice cracked as the words tore out of him, too heavy for him to control.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

The line went dead. Malcom had cut the call without a shred of hesitation. He wasn’t going to tell them that Kyla had helped him.

His thumb moved quick, blocking Dominic’s number with no second thought.

A shadow flickered across his eyes as he muttered to himself, low and certain, “So they figured

out Kyla’s trail this soon. Too bad for them. It doesn’t matter anymore.”

He lifted the phone again and dialed another number.

“Dad? What’s going on?” Tobias’s voice answered.

“In a couple days. Once we wipe her records clean and change her looks, I’ll put her on a ship bound for Valkyria.”

“I get it, Dad. I’ll see to it. Kyla will be out of here within days.”

Dominic shook his head. “Nothing. Crown Group must be keeping her hidden.”

Blair said. “The Lowells will wipe her records clean and ship her away. They’ll sneak her overseas in just days. If we don’t act now, she’ll be gone forever.”

“I know, Mom. I’ve got people out there searching. We can’t let her stab us in the back and disappear without paying for it.”

But deep down, Dominic knew how small the odds were.

With Crown Group behind her, finding Kyla in a few days was almost impossible.

The weight of exhaustion dragged at him. Jenson Group was collapsing. Shareholders were either in chaos or running to Crown Group. Blair had barely escaped a coma, yet she still lay in a hospital bed. Russell was locked up for bribery. Online, rumors burned like wildfire.

Against all of this, chasing Kyla felt like a hollow fight. Even if they caught her, it would not erase Russell’s crimes. The evidence was too real. Russell knew about the bribery but said nothing anyway.

Blair asked, “Dominic, what about your father? Can I see him? Is there any way to post bail?”

Dominic’s answered, “No, Mom. I already tried. Only the lawyers are allowed near him. Bail isn’t even on the table. Crown Group set this trap from the start. With Kyla’s testimony and the word of the man Dad once cast out, there’s no way out. Bail isn’t possible.”
