Chapter 220

I grabbed his sleeve, tugging him back. "No need. Just drop me at the hospital. I need Max to give me a straight answer."

No matter what Richard said, I felt both sides deserved a shot to lay it all out on the table, honestly.

"Don't you ever suspect that all of this is Max's doing? He's the one deceiving you." When Richard said this, I wasn't shocked, nor did I believe him.

Because I knew Max had been reincarnated too, just like me.

And Richard, unaware of our reincarnations, probably wanted to pin the blame on Max as a way to use me against him.

"Richard, what you're after is the entire Hilton family's acknowledgment?"

"Yes, I want the Hilton family, every last one of them, to recognize me. Why should Max be the only true heir? Those old fools in the Hilton family only see Max."

I remembered the ringleader, Kearney, barking the loudest. Was it all an act?

Yet, when Richard claimed Max wanted me dead, I couldn't bring myself to believe it.

"Why would Max want to kill me? Give me just one reason."

"Because you pose a threat to him." Richard looked at me earnestly, not seeming to lie.
