Reborn From Ashes novel Chapter 455

"What? This…"

The receptionist stood frozen, staring at Charlotte and the others as they walked away. She was completely thrown off.

Was Francis Sterling really dead?

The Sterling family was one of the most powerful families in Stonybrook, and he was still so young. How could he be dead? Why hadn't the news reported it?

Feeling helpless, the receptionist had no choice but to relay the information to Hayden.

…

Meanwhile, Hayden froze when he heard the news in his office.

"That… That can't be true!" He was in shock, and his face was full of disbelief.

He didn't want to believe it, but the message had come directly from Charlotte and the others.

A complex feeling stirred within Hayden. He almost wanted to laugh. He was happy yet disappointed because his revenge hadn't even begun.

How could Francis have died so easily?

"What's going on?" Christina immediately asked when she noticed Hayden's shift in expression.

"The Sterling family… They've sent someone to find me again," Hayden tried to explain, giving a bitter smile.

"What? They came looking for you again?" Christina was stunned.

Why had they come to look for Hayden so many times? What could be the reason?

"The worst part is that I've already told the receptionist not to let them in. If they really had to come in, there was only one condition. Francis had to be dead first." Hayden looked at Christina helplessly.

"What?"

Christina was speechless, and she stared at Hayden in disbelief. What was supposed to be a joke now seemed to have become reality.

"Anyway, let's go check it out." Hayden sighed and walked toward the reception room.

He was just as surprised as Christina. To meet him, Charlotte and the others seemed to have no limits.
