Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Chapter 259

She knew about Richard, even thanked me for supposedly getting rid of him.

"Don't be shocked. I've always known Richard was my brother, but the rest of our family didn't. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out how to eliminate you two, to avoid any disputes over the inheritance. Imagine my amusement when I found out you siblings were at each other's throats. I just had to see for myself."

A sense of danger instantly ran down my spine.

Who was this woman? What was she talking about?

"Surprised?" She sat up, casually touching the fireplace mantel. "It's not hard to guess. We're from a lineage you wouldn't believe, a dynasty here in Silverlake City, but to our family, it's no more significant than a speck of dust. As the sole heir, finding out I had competitors was interesting. I wanted to see how you, crawling from the dregs, would dare to challenge me for my inheritance."

I scoffed, "Not interested."

I had wanted to know more about her identity upon arriving, but her biting tone was off-putting, especially when she brought up the painful truth about Richard, my greatest sorrow. I had killed him!

That was something I couldn't face.

"Oh, then I'll have someone escort you down the mountain." She didn't bother with further conversation, turning away and gesturing for a servant to show me out.
