The Billionaire And His Son Want Me Back (Paisley) novel Chapter 141

"I want that woman dead!" said a woman.

"Who are you talking about?" asked a man.

"Paisley, Dominick's ex-wife," she said.

"I told you a long time ago—just get rid of that woman once and for all," the man chuckled.

Everyone from the Vanderbilt family, who had been looking down at their phones, froze. They lifted their heads in unison, staring at the large TV screen. This voice sounded so familiar.

On the TV, the video of the man and woman's conversation continued playing.

"This matter is yours to handle. Find someone reliable to do it. Once it's done, you can have whatever you want," the woman said.

"Haha, what else would I want? As long as my cousin becomes the Vanderbilt family's matriarch, I'll benefit too. I'll have everything then."

"Exactly. By then, the entire Vanderbilt family will be mine."

It was Marissa's voice! The Vanderbilt family members couldn't recognize the man's voice, but Marissa's was unmistakable!

Kayla and Lauren exchanged glances, each seeing shock mirrored in the other's eyes. What had they just heard? Was Marissa planning to kill Paisley?

The two shook their heads in sync, their expressions a mix of disbelief and refusal to accept what they'd heard. Impossible. Marissa was so kind. How could she ever do such a thing?

Reginald's face darkened. He had recognized Marissa's voice almost instantly. As for the man's voice, he recognized that too. It was Jeremy, Marissa's good-for-nothing cousin—Stella's father.

Over the years, the Vanderbilt family had often supported Jeremy out of consideration for Marissa. But Jeremy was a scoundrel, dabbling in every vice imaginable: drinking, gambling, and more.

However, this wasn't the time to dwell on Jeremy's past. The critical question was: how had this video appeared on their TV screen? If the video was real, was Paisley still alive?

Reginald wasn't the only one to consider this. Dominick had thought of it as well. He immediately called Paisley, and then waited for her to answer agonizingly.

However, the call rang only twice before being abruptly disconnected. He called again and simultaneously arranged for someone to locate Paisley.

In an instant, the once-bustling living room fell silent. No one spoke. Apart from the TV, there was no other sound.

"Just kill her? Aren't you going to take care of her kid too?" asked Jeremy.

"Of course. I can't stand her daughter either. For all we know, she might actually be Dom's child. Kill her too—it'll solve everything in one go," said Marissa.

"Fine. One big, one small—it's an easy job."

All eyes turned to Marissa. Marissa's face turned ashen. Her tear-filled eyes, which had previously looked so pitiful, now betrayed her growing panic.

"This-this is fake! I didn't say this! This video is edited!" Marissa stood up, looking for the remote to turn off the TV. "Don't believe this! It's a prank!" But the remote, which had been on the table earlier, was nowhere to be found.
