Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 216

Kelly shot daggers at the old hag. The senile old fool seemed to be unaware of the things that would befall her soon.

She stopped behaving courteously and said sarcastically, “Oh? Isn’t Hayes Corporation going to liquidate their share from Eternal Group soon? I guess there’s nothing much I can do about it since I’m merely an outsider. However, since my niece is going to be Mrs. Hayes soon, I feel obligated to drop by and see if there’s anything I can offer. I guess that won’t be necessary, huh? I guess I’ll excuse myself.”

Kelly got up from the couch and brought her bag along with her in an attempt to leave.

Matilda’s expression changed because she forgot the cunning woman’s niece was Sebastian’s fiancée.

Although her brother, Frederick, was never fond of Xandra’s presence, there wasn’t anything he could do about it since Sebastian insisted on having Xandra as his fiancée.

When finally softened her approach and asked, “How can you be so certain? Sasha has returned, and she’s right in my nephew’s house as we speak.”

“You’re not wrong, but their children are the sole reason she’s given the opportunity to move in. They are the foundation of their relationship.”

Matilda had her doubts. “Are you sure?”

As Matilda indicated her will to carry on with the conversation, Kelly took a seat. “Of course! Xandra will soon be a member of the Hayes! You do remember Mr. Hayes has requested Xandra to make a trip back and attend your birthday party on his behalf, don’t you? Are you not aware of the meaning behind his decision?”

Kelly played the trump card she had been hiding up her sleeves.

Indeed, as Frederick has given his consent, nothing could possibly get in the way of Xandra and Sebastian’s marriage.

On top of that, they have always been a lovely pair in front of others. I guess it’s only a matter of time before Xandra becomes a member of the Hayes.

Matilda finally found Kelly’s words credible. “Great! I’ll be waiting for the day your niece becomes the glorious Mrs. Sebastian Hayes! When the time comes, I hope you won’t forget the Emmanuels!”

“That’s but of course, Matilda! As long as she becomes Mrs. Hayes, I’ll get her to refinance Eternal Group again. However…”

Halfway through her conversation, Kelly paused and arched her brows. Her concerns were written all over her face.

Matilda had always been an impulsive woman. Therefore, she pressed on and asked with an irritated look, “What? Hurry up and tell me what’s bothering you!”

“I’m afraid Sasha is going to get in their way. If only we can stop her from setting foot in Hayes Residence…” Kelly replied with a sheepish grin.

“You want to get rid of her once and for all? Are you sure you’re not asking the impossible? She’s the mother of Sebastian’s children. You can never stop her from seeing her children.”

“Exactly! That’s why we need to get Sebastian to stop her! I believe it can be easily resolved if we’re able to sow discord between them and get Sebastian to chase her out.”

Kelly enunciated her reply with a vicious-looking sneer, like a wicked witch who couldn’t wait to get the better of her prey.
